Howdy Folks!

APOLOGY: First off I'd like to formally apologise for the email sent out yesterday with the Download Festival Australia line-up announcement. There was a technical problem and the poster image failing to show! What a tease that was; it was unintentional. Thank you to all those (and there were many) of you that pointed it out. You can now view that news and the tour banner with the line-up here!

This week we have Beartooth grinning the cover and we spoke to Primal Fear, Conan and Anti-Flag.

And something we here at HEAVY HQ are super proud to announce is that we are now on Spotify, iTunes and iHeart Radio! You can now download or stream interviews on any device, anywhere and anytime! Here are the links you need: SpotifyApple iTunes Podcasts

Rock on and stay HEAVY \m/
