MSRcast has spawned out of the long running fanzine Mainstream Resistance from Texas. We started out as a webzine then branched out to print. After many successful years in print, and with some tough times around 2000, we decided to put MSR (Mainstream Resistance) to bed for the time being. Some of the writers and editors of MSR still kept their metal roots grounded by writing for other metal zines and staying in the local metal scene. "Now is the time to show the world the rebirth of MSR," proclaims Evil C, the founder of Mainstream Resistance. It is the time to wake up the dormant corpse of Mainstream Resistance. Our podcasts will be a little bit different. Of course, in every episode, we will always be playing more metal than you can handle, including plenty of new releases, classic tracks, local Texas bands, and a strange cover song here and there. This will really have a zine feeling to it, as this is where we come from. You might have noticed from our playlist that we are very eclectic with the music that we enjoy, and this definitely will reflect our episodes. Although, we will have episodes that are tailored to a certain genre, mostly, our shows will be wildly varied. We will have special guests, interviews, reviews, and plenty of specialty shows. Keep it metal! Fuck The Mainstream!

No Title Evil C.

Inject This Metal Into You

MSRcast is the premiere place for your metal needs! Great interviews and an entertaining show!

Jesse W Jackson ,

Metal to the Pedel!

It's always good to hear the guys talk about and share their love of Metal music and all that implies. A fun way to expand your iTunes catalog.

Finn or Frame ,

Let it rock!

Whether you like power, thrash, black, symphonic, or any other metal in between this is your podcast. The hosts are funny and not too serious but love tons of metal like any of us who would listen to it. Great interviews with artists and you get to hear a bunch of their back catalog as well as all music episodes too. Check it out and you won't be disappointed.
