Welcome to ''The Australian Metal Guide'', the infrequently updated companion to the Darkstar Publications book ''Encyclopaedia of Australian Heavy Metal''. This site used to be a fully-functional user-contributing wiki, but got so slammed with spam that the functionality was turned off. I am mostly using this page now as a reference archive for further editions of the book but it will be continually revised and added to so please keep visiting. The navigation area is on the left under the logo. Stay awhile... I promise I won't keep you long.


The two main sections of the Aussie Metal Guide are the band/artist pages and the [[Gig Guide]]. By using a wiki, we hope to able to list every metal/hard rock show happening in Australia and thereby allow you to plan who you want to go see and, if you're a band or promoter, what your next gig might be clashing with!
For enquiries, gripes, suggestions, etc. email annex@bigpond.net.au.
 
Our aim for this site is to eventually provide a complete resource when it comes to metal in Australia by providing complete bios on bands and artists as well as information about venues, festivals and anything else we think important.
 
To navigate the band pages, enter a band/artist name in the search box to the left, or use these two special pages:
 
*[[Special:Allpages|All pages]] - Every page on the site. This brings up ''every'' page, including pages that aren't about bands.
*[[Special:Categories|All categories]] - State/city of origin or base location (some have one or the other, some have both)
 
For enquiries, gripes, suggestions, etc. leave a message on [[User:Goreripper|my page]]. If you are editing or adding a page, please visit the [[Guidelines and Help]] page first.

Welcome to The Australian Metal Guide, the infrequently updated companion to the Darkstar Publications book Encyclopaedia of Australian Heavy Metal.
