Metal bands use Twitter? Satan would not approve.

Hey Chally,

If you've got the links, we are more than happy to add them. We'd really like this to be an inclusive list of every kind of musician in the Vancouver scene. We're also low on bluegrass, hiphop, and mathcore bands, too.

You featured a great band a while back in your Instant Play List, yet they are not on here. They were called Last Plague. Introduced to me by The Straight.
