Der Sommer und die Festivalsaison sind zurück - und damit auch unser metalhead.club Bier! Metalhead.club Helles Doch damit nicht genug: Dieses Jahr bieten wir zusätzlich zum “metalhead.club” Hell auch das “metalhead.club Dark ’n’ Heavy” an. Passend zum Namen und gedacht als Gegengewicht zum Hellen, handelt es sich dabei um ein dunkles Bier. Das spiegelt sich auch im Geschmack wider: Während das Helle ein sehr hopfiges und zitronig-frisches Bier ist, kommt das Dark ’n’ Heavy dunkel-malzig und mit einem deutlich höheren Alkoholgehalt von 5.

In April 2024, metalhead.club user @MiseryPath came up with the idea of adding a metalhead.club song to all the T-shirts, patches, flyers and beer - and looked for other users from the Fediverse who wanted to support his project. The Song 🔗You can find the song at: https://music.metalhead.club/metalheadclub-anthem/ If you like it, consider buying it as a high quality download! You can get it for € 2. All the money goes into to FULL METAL SERVER 1!

After 2024’s metalhead.club poster campaign in Wacken unfortunately failed due to the unreliable service provider and the poster was not put up, I just tried again this year! Back in December 2024, I tried to book the same billboard again for Wacken 2025 and suffered a setback: The space had already been allocated by another customer and suitable alternatives were unfortunately not available in the town of Wacken. I had already given up when I checked again one morning in April 2025.

Dear metalheads, so that we can present our metalhead.club poster in a suitable format in clubs and bars, @bestiaexmachina@metalhead.club has set to work and brought the Wacken poster into DIN A2 format. Many thanks for that! You can download the poster here, print it out yourself and hang it up in your favorite bars and concert venues - after consulting the owners, of course … ;-) English German Preview English: Preview German:

Dear metalhead.club members, For some time now, I have wanted to have metalhead.club flyers to hand out to fellow metalheads at festivals and concerts or - with the owners’ permission, of course - to display in bars or concert venues. So @bestiaexmachina@metalhead.club worked on it and created a metalhead.club flyer. Better still: two flyer variants. The first design has a front and a back and is perfect for postcard formats. The second design is only one-sided and therefore all the more eye-catching.

Es ist soweit! Nachdem ich über meinen Mastodon-Account schon ein paar Mal habe durchblicken lassen, dass es ein metalhead.club Bier geben wird, ist unser Brauer und Kooperationspartner Freibier.cc nun soweit, dass erste Vorbestellungen des metalhead.club Bieres angenommen werden können! Mit Freibier.cc haben wir einen Partner gefunden, der schon seit einigen Jahren sein eigenes Bier braut und dabei auch nicht vor exotischeren Sorten und Geschmäckern zurückschreckt. Sven und Dino von Freibier.cc waren nach meiner Anfrage für ein metalhead.

Time for patches! They’ve been on my merch to-do list for a while, but now I can finally announce that there are metalhead.club patches with our logo! Dimensions: DIN-A7 (10,5 cm x 7,4 cm) Finely woven metalhead.club logo (white) on a black background Made of fabric, with reinforced edge For sewing on Price: € 6.66 The patch is currently only available in an initial batch of 100 pieces - I am therefore limiting the current maximum number of patches per person to 2, so that as many interested buyers as possible have the chance to get a patch.

I have booked my first poster advertisement! For metalhead.club! In Wacken! In order to make metalhead.club better known among metalheads, I decided to test some outdoor advertising. This probably makes us the first Fediverse instance to place commercial advertising - and certainly the first Fediverse instance to do so in Wacken! Unfortunately, there were only 2 locations left to book in Wacken. And the booking periods could hardly be more unfavorable.

In summer 2023, I had metalhead.club T-shirts printed for the first time and sent them to metalhead.club members. (Check out the previous batch here!). With the current campaign, I want to build on the success of the summer and once again offer you the opportunity to purchase an official T-shirt with the logo - this time with the much-requested crew neck! Available models, sizes and colors 🔗This time I want to keep the number of variations (cut, color, size) smaller so that the ordering process is not so error-prone and complex.

(auto-translated Text) In July 2023, it was announced that Meta’s Twitter/X competitor “Threads” would probably also set foot in the so-called Fediverse - the network that connects various social platforms such as Mastodon, MissKey, Pleroma, KBin and Lemmy. This would make it possible for Meta’s own users to interact with users and content from the Fediverse - and vice versa. This announcement caused panic in the Fediverse at the time. While some saw this as a success (after all, this was a significant step towards service interoperability!
