Your fans are waiting!
After a number of my favorite bands started creating official MySpace pages, I decided it was time to finally break down and create my own.
I was shocked by how many amazing artists were on MySpace Music and what a great opportunity this was to find new music.
Shortly after creating my profile and adding my friends and favorites, I started receiving invites from a lot of great bands of which I was unfamiliar.
I created this lens because I am assuming that there are many other music lovers that will appreciate a list of the official MySpace pages for these great metal and rock bands.
Please feel free to contact me, and let me know about other great official pages that I may have missed. This lens is a work in progress, so expect it to grow and change over time.

Opeth is often described as melodic death metal. Truly, there is nothing else like them. As musicians, they are all spectacular, and the vocals are one of a kind. I have never heard a voice as soft and smooth as Mikael's, yet at the same time, he has...
