about

........................................................................................

Well! The Irish Metal Archive was two years old at the start of this year. So I though it would be a good a idea to put a bit of a compilation album together featuring some of our countries heaviest hitters.

So here you have it! "The First Wave..." (An Chéad Tonn...) featuring 40 bands and 42 tracks. Some of it is already available elsewhere to buy, stream or download. But it's a good representation of metal scene we have here in Ireland. Plus it's good to have them all compiled together and available for free in one location.

Thanks million to all the bands that agreed to letting my feature their tracks. If you like what you hear then you know what to do. The scene is nothing without punters, so do your bit and support the artists. Buy their demo, EP, album or other merchandise.

Thanks also to Nathan Quinn for initially instigating this little project that eventually grew many legs and nearly got away from me.
Thanks also to Jim Tobin for all his help with the new website which will hopefully be unveiled REALLY soon...!!!
