Less is more. No, I haven't gone mad (or maybe I'm already mad?), but I believe that sometimes less is more, especially in live music. And even though the website is called FemMetal, I'd like to tell you about an acoustic show this time. Nicoletta announced the live...

I had an idea to why metal is so interestingly the black sheep of music, and I’m going to prove it by a practical experiment. I’ve taken the top 10 tracks of the Most Requested Pop songs and Metal songs off of iTunes charts, and I’ve compared their key signature. I’ve...
