Metal Blade Records check my cover of I Cum Blood with my band Acidic Sarin ! I want to do something with music
THANK YOU Brian and everyone else involved with Metal Blade for providing us with lots of great heavy music over the years!
Metal Blade Records cannibal corpse has influenced me so much. thank you for everything
Metal Blade is honestly one of the most important labels ever
Brian Slagel has honestly made a bigger contribution to metal than anybody else. Little did he know at the time what kind of impact putting Metallicas "Hit the lights" on the 1st Metal Massacre compilation would have on the entire genre. That basically kickstarted the entire Thrash movement and along with that an incredible lineage of bands. If Slagel never would have given Lars a spot on that compilation and with that Lars forming Metallica...metal could be VERY different than it is right now. Thank you Brian Slagel for having a helping hand into creating the kind of metal that we all know and love today. Metal Blade is and always will be MASSIVELY important to this genre.
Cattle Decapitation are continuing the forward momentum of the Metal Blade roster.
Congratulations on your 35 years of constant influential Metal Music 🤘 Greetings from Laredo, TX

Brian Slagel and Metal Blade rules! Thanks for all the great music through out the years. Definitely picking up the book.
This dudes legendary he put out alot of good music. Much respect
4:42 Fates Warning with JOHN ARCH!
Thank you, Brian! You, your team and the Zazulas defined my generation’s soundtrack and have continued to do so for every subsequent generation since. 🤘🏾
Happy Anniversary Metal Blade. Thank you for helping out the heavy metal community
These fellas like Brian were blessed enough to grow up in an era when there were bands worth signing and issuing.
Every damn modern band seems to have the Napalm Death growl.
Happy anniversary! Thanks for all the great, brutal music.
If the Rock and Roll HOF was worth a fuck, they would put Brian in it.
unun septium FACT.
I was one of the metal blade record recipients record collector since 82, thanx to the mighty met with Jim ladd,turning point records in Glendale rocked!! , sweet memories thanx to metal Blade records!! For sure!!
So outstanding that one dude made it happen. Congrats.
This is one of the only times I've heard someone mention LA's "KWEST" (105.5)! Unfortunately I was JUST discovering FM radio and probably in 2 years getting into the station and its embracing Progressive Rock and early Hard/Heavy Rock, they disappeared :(. But if it wasn't for KMET and the debut of Jim Ladd's "Metal Shop" every friday night circa 1983(?), It may have taken a bit longer to finally become a Metalhead, and along with KWEST, KLOS and my own discoveries as a Progger - until the 2 meshed as other subgenres grew as well. And then a 18 year old kid from Seattle who had an all Thrash and Death Metal show on KSPC 88.7 (Pitzer/Pomona College) called "Infernal Rage" circa 1988, gave me an International education on the extreme metal scene at its beginnings.
But its people like that young student and Brian Slagel that kept the Metal Underground alive and thriving.
Thank you Brian (and all the friends, bands and people I've met on my Metal and Prog journey) \m/.
. . . and btw - Thank you HUGELY for "Fates Warning" :).
I love that bass fill in Nightbringers, so dope.
I wonder how they've been able to adapt to CZcams with being able to listen to anything whenever you want without having to buy it. But, anyway, I have so many Metal Blade albums. I started with the Metal Massacre albums and then went on to Fates Warning and others. Very cool video!
As population ages, less people need this sort of music.
Slagel is probably the most important person in metal, that isn't a musician.
and such a Good person...what a legend \m/
dont forget Iron Man. And Fred Durst.
Thank you
I like how this guy looks absolutely no different than he did in the early '80s. Those old pictures look like recent pictures lol If anything he looks better now.
This guy most likely is the single biggest reason (besides the band themselves) behind Cannibal Corpse's success. Yes they may have eventually found another label to sign them, but we may never have gotten Eaten, Butchered, Tomb, or possibly even other albums of theirs.. And who knows IF they would have even found another label that would sign them. Brian loved their demo (particularly Skull full of Maggots) and rolled the dice and signed them. Fucking Legend!
I wish I had the mail order flyer STILL...I remember ordering cassettes directly....I'd cut grass.......give my mom 30 bucks and she would right the check out. Wait for the mailman...and have my copy of troubles first album..hell awaits and hallows eve
Brian is a legend!
My favorite Record company

Wow, I had no idea that metalblade was so important in the history of metal.
So, if it wasn't for Brian's cousin we would be fucked right now
Allegaeon FUCKING RULES!!!! Just got their symbol tattoed!!!

Metal Massacre 3. Memories.
So killer! I was buying some of those "left over" lps and tapes at silly cheap prices when the web page was new..like a dollar or something? War and Pain started it all for me!! 84 /85
That dude doesnt seem to age
I did a fanzine back in the day (Aspirin 1988-91") & had a business card from Brian Slagel that I later sold on ebay, the ass-clown said he never got it in the mail & I got ripped OFF selling it
Death metal rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I think of MB I think of Unearth.
9:52 when I think of this artwork, I think of III: In The Eyes Of Fire
No Brian no metallica
It was a great label until crap like Galactic Cowboys, and Gwar. Lizzy Borden, Fates Warning., Bitch , and Omen were Metal. Wish the label would have remained 100% Metal
666th \m/
