I grew up reading Heaven's Metal Magazine, like many others, when I was a teenager back in the late 80s and early 90s. That magazine was my lifeline to all things Christian Metal! It still brings back great memories to this day. As I got older and went into my 20s, I read HM Magazine as well.
Before the internet allowed you to find out information straight from a band or on a music blog, you had to get your music news from Magazines. Doug Van Pelt filled that void. What a great thing to have had growing up. Van Pelt has moved on from the HM brand but still does (to my knowledge) Heaven's Metal. And, even now you can go right online and download digital back-issues of the both magazines! How cool is that? Check them out here.
Recently, Christian Metal Group did an interview with Dough Van Pelt. You will definitely want to check this out! You can watch it below, but also be sure to go over to YouTube and Subscribe to The Christian Metal Group's YouTube Channel. In fact, here's the link. Go do it.
