Ben Umanov (MetalSucks)
Manage episode 367373975 series 2862377
"Why isn't there a metal site that talks about metal the way people actually talk about it?" The MetalSucks co-founder, formerly known as "Vince Neilstein," tells the origin story behind the opinionated news site. There's also an in-depth discussion about "The Metallica Economy": how the kickoff of a new Metallica album/touring cycle is the digital wave that lifts all of the metal websites. (In 2022, Ben and his fellow cofounder, Matthew "Axl Rosenberg" Goldenberg, sold MetalSucks to The Orchard, a subsidiary of Sony Music, and left their co-Editor-In-Chief positions.) Speak N' Destroy podcast theme by Scott Mellinger. Visit the Speak N' Destroy website and socials HERE. Part of the PopCurse podcast network.
