BLACK METAL REVIEWS: If your band creates high quality black metal and you want HELL FURNACE to consider your music for review, use the request form below. Important: include a myspace link or other link to samples of your music.
We ONLY review music that we GENUINELY enjoy.
That’s why no negative/bad reviews ever appear in our zine. We will include small criticisms, but overall our reviews are positive because we really like the music.
Why do we do this?
1. We don’t have time to review music we don’t enjoy. So we spend our limited time reviewing stuff we really like.
2. We could NEVER fake a positive review of music we don’t like – so we simply won’t review it.
3. We don’t want you to waste money shipping us promos that we won’t review.
