Sirius vs. XM Radio for best Metal stations...

[DemonJay]

Hey guys, I'm considering signing up for satellite radio as I can't stand normal radio stations and I do not want to be limited to just what I have on my iPod.

Between Sirius and XM Radio, which of these two offer the best Metal stations? I know they will most likely not be perfect to what we consider "True metal," but hopefully at least one can come close. Right?

My wife had XM and from what I've heard, it's crap! Sirius has to be better!

I've never had either, but I'm certain you can do a free trial of each of them on the internet so you can find out for certain which one has better metal stations.

sirius has hard attack which for the most part has new metalcore bands and whats on ozzfest, but also other metal bands on during the day, with beyound the pit at 11 to 12 which plays black/death/grind stuff, theres also bloody roots which shows dif bands in metal history, example "bloody roots of australian metal" stuff like that. dont know anything about xm

I checked out XM liquid metal when in my cousin's car, since he's got one of those car receivers. Multiple times I tuned in to scenecore garbage.

No station will be cool enough to play what you can program on your ipod.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Neither are particularly good.

 

[ohiogrinder]

Sirius hands down.

i enjoy liquid metal. but someone really loves psyopus though, it seems like they get played every other song!

 

[challenge_everything]

Metal radio? What's that?

 

[Belligerent]

Sirius hands down.

Agreed. HardAttack channel 27 plays a great variety of metal. I even heard the 10minute Nile song "Even the Gods Must Die" in full yesterday
