About KaosMetal
KaosMetal is a heavy metal database and community — bands, albums, news, and reviews, all in one place. We pair a growing catalog with dual ratings, so you can see how verified critics and fans each rate a release, side by side.
What KaosMetal Is
KaosMetal catalogs bands and their discographies across the metal spectrum, from classic heavy metal to the genre's heavier and more extreme corners. Every band page links out to its albums, and every album carries editorial reviews plus a fan rating — two independent scores instead of one blended number.
Our editorial team writes the reviews and covers the news; verified critics contribute their own scores separately from the fan community's votes. The goal is simple: let readers see where critical opinion and fan opinion agree — and where they don't.
What makes us different
- ▪ Dual ratings: Every album shows a verified critics score and a fan score, kept separate so neither one hides the other.
- ▪ Editorial depth: News and reviews written by an editorial team, not generic filler.
- ▪ A companion channel: Our YouTube channel covers the same bands, albums, and news in video form.
Our Team
KaosMetal is written by a small team: news writers who cover what happens in metal every day, and editors who write the histories, the biographies, the essential albums, the label stories, the portraits and the reviews. Meet them, and find everything they have published, on the team page.
