Brian Boyle

WRITER
Brian has been MetaTalk's Irish representative since 2016. Growing up in Dublin, he has to thank his two older brothers for his love of classic rock, hard rock and Heavy Metal, as his house was littered with classic vinyl and cassettes.

Brian is a printed journalist and has also written for several online music publications. Away from music, he is a keen fly fisherman and Manchester United sufferer.

Brian has reviewed hundreds of albums for MetalTalk and covers our Irish gigs, which have included Iron Maiden, Whitesnake and Ghost. He distributes and coordinates album reviews for our wonderful team of writers.
