Introduction - What this blog is about

Hi, my name is Carine and I live in Cape Town. I've always loved metal, but I've only recently realized how many heavy metal bands there are across the African continent, many of them virtually unknown outside their native country, since Africa is primarily associated with other genres of music. So here's my mission. I plan to provide a window, for metal, as it is played in Africa. No critical reviews or indepth analysis. Just a bit of added visibility. By way of introduction to the metal scene in Africa, here's a Dutch video clip, with English subtitles, featuring two of Gaberone's 'metal cowboys'. In the next blogpost, I plan to feature a death metal band from Gaberone, Botswana.
