Internet music radio station?

    Looking for an "internet music radio station" that plays metal (Slayer, Pantera, Chimera, Machine Head, Fear Factory, etc, NO light ROCK MUSIC). I have broadband, and I like listening to a song that I don't have every so often. Scuzz & Kerrang on the Digi has gone downhill, so I'm hoping someone knows of a decent online metal radio. Preferably something that I can listen to using WinAmp.


    Hopefully this doesn't somehow break the "NO ADVERTISING" rule.

    Hi,

    Have a flavor of Jordan music. It makes you tap your feet rhythmically.99.6 fm radio station. It’s very cool, enjoyable and energetic station.
    Is there any metal on that radio station?

    The two I use the most would be:

    http://www.knac.com/

    http://www.snakenetmetalradio.com/default.asp

    I also agree with last.fm. It is brilliant. Just created one there a few weeks ago. It's a lot of fun, highly recommended.

    i do listen the odd time, theres too much talk, and the english accents get on your nerves after a while, the music is usually way off the mark, full of bands i've never heard of..

    Try out the Finnish "[URL="javascript:MM_openBrWindow('http://www.radiorock.fi/player','testi','width=600,height=500')"]Radio Rock[/URL]". Music's great. Just hope you don't mind the Finnish speaking DJs.

    Examples of their playlist....
    Disturbed: Inside the Fire
    Mötley Crüe: Saints of Los Angeles
    Kotiteollisuus: Kevät
    Apocalyptica feat. Adam Gontier (Three days grace): I Don´Care
    AC/DC: Rock´n Roll Train
    Metallica: The Day That Never Comes
    Atreuy: Honor
    Billy Idol: John Wayne
    Brother Firetribe: Heart Full Of Fire
    Judas Priest: Vision
    Scars On Broadway: They Say

    this is a german radio station, but one of the biggest metal stations in the world. The mods are german, of course, but they do a great job!
    The music is mixed, every dj has his own specialities, from rock and gothic metal to brutalmetal... But theres's a schedule on their page. The best ever: Prophecy, his shows are on monday from 9-11pm, deathmetal, brutalmetal, wednesday from 9-11, a little bit 'softer' :), death and grind. I really love it, you can send your own music wishes and if your're lucky, he`ll play them. He presents one band on every show or bands from a festival (like the Way od darkness next week...)
    So try and enjoy and you`ll be addicted :D

    Chronix Radio can be quite good

    Try itunes. There's plenty of metal / rock stations to listen to on it:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭Sabre0001


    If you download WinAmp - there is a "Shoutcast Radio" tab and plenty of rock / metal stations.

    🤪
