Matt has been a passionate Metal fan for a little less than a decade. In that time, he's become well-versed in all sub-genres and styles, with a particular interest in Traditional Heavy Metal, Hard Rock, Thrash Metal, Power Metal, Glam Metal, and NWOBHM. It's his ambition to make a career in metal journalism and to eventually host his own Hard Rock/Metal radio show.
