Extension summary

Did you ever want to be able to search for your favorite metal band in all popular metal websites with a single click for whatever reason? If the answer to this is yes, well... this extension has come for you! Put your hands together for... "Metal Search"!

This extension enables a new menu when you select and right-click text on a website that allows you to look up the text you've selected in one of the web magazines listed under the "Metal Search" menu or in all of them! A new tab (or multiple in case you went for all of them) will be created leading you to all results found for your highlighted keyword on that website.

Extremely useful for:

Bands who need an easy way to check popular websites about themselves, people involved in media that want an easy way to gather information for a band and last but not least every metalhead who wants to stay informed about his or her favorite metal bands all the time!

Let me know if you have any suggestions for fixes and/or improvements.

The source code for this can be found on Github

Disclaimer: this is not the "ultimate" list of metal web magazines available but the ones I prefer using for looking up stuff. If you feel that more should go into that list drop me a line and we'll figure it out.
