Into the Pit with Annie was formed in January 2018 following an auto accident where Savage Annie wound up with physically impacting injuries. Her love of metal is what kept her going even though for some time the Opinionated Metalhead had to refrain from headbanging and moshing to properly heal. And thus the blog was born. Savage Annie attends a number of shows on a monthly basis, both local in Las Vegas and throughout her travels around the U.S.

In February 2019 we have added the Stylish & Badass Lady of Metal Stephanie Lehr. Video Editing as of 2019 is being done by Thomas Palmer, Bassist for Vatican Falling . In 2020 we are added to our staff Scott Coonan of Gone But Not Forgotten Shirts , Gage Vickers of Oppressor God, Mike Neely of Arborize, and Mike Dickson of Masticator for more frequent album review coverage. Each one of them will be putting their passion for music and live show experiences into words for your reading pleasure!

In addition to new content creators with a passion and flare for music we are officially under Opinionated Metalhead LLC. Sponsors and affiliates include House of Blues Las Vegas, Gone But Not Forgotten Shirts, Blaspheme Boutique and Primitive Recordings. 

Into the Pit with Annie’s goal is to make waves in the scene and push boundaries with a tell it like it is, no punches held back mentality. There is no room for yes men and bobble heads in this club, only brutally honest music lovers who kick ass in the mosh pit need apply. Lets make Metal thrive again whether its underground, mainstream, in someone’s backyard…who cares….lets RAGE! This blog provides a look into the metal, hardcore, punk and hard rock scene. On the website you will find the following:
