60,000 releases have now been categorised and catalogued on Metal Academy. 14,492 bands were added to the site in the process of reaching this milestone.

The 60,000th was actually from a well known band, being The Haunted's latest.

Quite the milestone.  Metal Academy continues to a great resource, especially in my discovery of new music this year.  Thanks Ben.

Well, we now have 66,666 releases on Metal Academy. Seems worth celebrating!

It turns out the release that hit the mark is Hemlock's Crush the Race of God. How very fitting. Shame it's a shit cover.
