	I have a question about this department. This is METAL MUSIC ARCHIVES and in that title there is nothing that indicates that it is strictly a review site for the music alone. Why can't we add books to the actually artistt's page or create a section of the site dedicated to books and metal magazines. I just went through a bunch of old magazines and i found SOD (Sounds Of Death) Magazine along with old Hit Paraders and Circus etc. I think it would be fun to have a page dedicated to the different various media formats that helped spread the word and review albums before the internet usurped that throne. I imagine that the problem is that the webmasters don't appear often enough to make changes like this but i'm bringing it up as an idea so that someday when the site has the chance to be spruced up and fine tuned a bit more that it is on the work table of possibilities. http://www.officialabyssrecords.com/sod29-sod-sounds-of-death-magazine-issue-29.html
