Ian Christe is the author of "Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal" and his digital metal band, Dark Noerd, features on the "Gummo" soundtrack.
Undiluted, industrial strength metal for true metalheads, blasting out the heaviest and best from the masters that created it to the ones that are perfecting it today.
INTO THE TRIVIA PIT is a LIVE weekly half hour game show hosted by Metal Ambassador Jose Mangin, where knowing your Metal is the name of the game. Subscribers call in to compete in three intense rounds of Heavy Metal trivia in order to score sick prizes and bring honor to their families. Every week a Metal celebrity will answer questions on behalf of a lucky listener, and hopefully not fail miserably. Finally a game show where it pays to know your METAL!
Devil’s Dozen counts down the top 12 new metal songs each week, hosted by Jose, or some other random metalhead, band member, hot chick -- anyone who can count backwards from 12.
Sound of the Beast author Ian Christe gives a crash course in headbanger history from Black Sabbath to black metal, with inside stories and tons of rare music.
A natural born headbanger from Arizona, Jose went to Pharmacy school in Memphis but at the crossroads in life chose music over medicine, and since 2000 has passionately led the satellite radio rock revolution! Jose is a Director of Programming at SiriusXM working on Liquid Metal, Ozzy’s Boneyard & Octane. In addition to radio, Mangin hosted/produced the Headbangers Ball on MTV2 (2008-2012), LatiNation TV, and continues to host events for Dean Guitars, Revolver, Jagermeister & Affliction.
Liquid Metal With Shawn
Every week Liquid Metal’s Scotty hosts an hour cover song special featuring some rare & popular covers performed by Metal bands from all over the heavy spectrum. Some shows will have a theme, other parts will consist of your cover song requests, sometimes it’ll be random as hell, and perhaps a few special guest hosts from time to time. Get ready to enter the CORRIDOR OF COVERS exclusively on SiriusXM Liquid Metal!
Metallically raised in Arizona, Jose was going to grad school to be a pharmacist when he chose rock n ' roll instead! Since 2000, Mangin has ruled SiriusXM on-air & as programmer of Liquid Metal, Octane & Ozzy 's Boneyard. On TV, Jose hosted Headbangers Ball on MTV2, Latination TV, and more.
Born and raised in Queens, NY, Shawn discovered his love of metal by 11 and has been a die-hard fan ever since. Despite brain damage from years of headbanging, he graduated from the Institute Of Audio Research and embraced the world of satellite radio, where he went from intern to Liquid Metal DJ.
Scotty C started playing guitar at an early age but quickly realized he sucked and switched to drums. He got really drunk one night in college, wandered into his college radio station and got his own show. Now he blasts the heaviest music on or off the planet at SiriusXM and in his band, Downfall.
