Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles is a Canadian heavy metal magazine.
Founded by former M.E.A.T. magazine staffer "Metal" Tim Henderson and author Martin Popoff in 1994, Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles (BW&BK) has become a globally respected metal publication. Though based in Canada, BW&BK also features writers from the USA, Germany and the UK, allowing the magazine to represent metal's international appeal.
Covering many facets of extreme music, BW&BK is renowned for its emphasis on news and interviews, rather than pin-ups or excessive visuals. The reviews section takes on current records circulating through the underground metal world, and a section called Metal Forecast tracks the release date of upcoming recordings. BW&BK is complemented by its internet presence BraveWords.com, whose main focus is up-to-the-minute metal news.

“Carlyle is not a seer, but a brave looker-on and reviewer; not the most free and catholic observer of men and events, for they are likely to find him preoccupied, but unexpectedly free and catholic when they fall within the focus of his lens.”

“The Americans have many virtues, but they have not Faith and Hope. I know no two words whose meaning is more lost sight of.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The nightingales are singing near
The Convent of the Sacred Heart,
And sang within the bloody wood
When Agamemnon cried aloud,
And let their liquid siftings fall
To stain the stiff dishonored shroud.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“What does headquarters think these guys came over here for, a sewing circle? They go up playing for keeps. Cops and robbers with rocks in the snowballs. Brass knuckles and lead pipes and a roughneck conviction they can lick any man in the world.”
—Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)
