WELCOME TO THE SOCIAL MEDIA ESCAPE CLUB

10/6/2023: Yes, after almost two years of being HEAVY METAL EMAIL, we are now SOCIAL MEDIA ESCAPE CLUB.

I’ve written about having a SOCIAL MEDIA ESCAPE PLAN over the last few years, and I feel like it’s time to turn this into an actual club, an online space, an internet support group for creative folks who want to escape social media.

I also don’t want to think this is just for metal heads, too. It’s for any creative person who has said the following out loud, with friends, or to themselves:

“I wish I didn’t have to be on social media to promote my work.”

It’s time to escape the algorithmic depths and launch into a dimension of cosmic possibility.

WHO AM I?

I’m Seth Werkheiser, and I do D2C email operations for Grammy Award winning MNRK Heavy: High On Fire, Underoath, Creeping Death, Rolo Tomassi, The Callous Daoboys, Crowbar… good times!

Previously: D2C email operations for Death Row Records in 2021 (before it sold to Snoop Dog), individual band campaigns for Holdtight PR in mid 2022.

I’m a writer at heart.

I launched the Noisecreep metal blog for AOL Music back in 2008, and that shirt I’m wearing is from the music blog I started back in 2001, so yeah, 20+ years of running music sites, working with music publicists and labels, posting metal trivia on Twitter, going to shows, and tons more.
