Christmas and Hannukah shopping for metalheads may not be easy, so we here at Metal Injection thought we'd throw in our two cents on suggestions for what to get your favorite metal head. Whether you are shopping for a son, daughter, relative, friend, significant other or just want to scare somebody, we have compiled the ultimate guide of sweet gifts for blasters, shredders and thrashers. We have updated our gift guide from recent years to add some killer new items…

New Gifts

Accept Wine

Did you know there is an entire site that sells wine made only by metal bands? One of those bands is Accept. If your significant other enjoys having his balls to the wall, then this one is for you.

Lamb of God "As The Palaces Burn" Documentary

We called this the doc something every Lamb of God fan needs to see and now it's available for purchase on DVD. It's a striking film covering Randy Blythe's harrowing Czech trial and their global audience.

$16.29 on Amazon.com

Iron Maiden – The Complete Albums Collection

This is the type of gift that you can say you're getting for your friend or significant love, but really you're just getting it for yourself to listen to. At around $73, it's not a bad deal, but you only get the first three albums and the sweet box. You'd have to get the rest of their music on your own.

Only $72.98 on Amazon.com

King Diamond Gnome

The details on this are amazing and as James Hetfield proves, gnomes are metal.

$45 on Etsy | Browse their full collection of gnomes.

Viking Drinking Horn

I have no idea why it took us this long to add this to the list. Wine glasses? Not metal. Viking horns… very metal!

Heavy Metal Statues from Knuckleheadz

Need that perfect mantle piece? Why not the heavy metal God himself, Rob FN Halford or the Prince of Darkness or Kerry FN King? Each statue is sold separately and there are a few other bands available.

$115 at Knucklebonz

Converse x Black Sabbath Sneakers

Yes, it's cold and Chuck Taylors are probably not the best idea right now but spring is right around the corner and we can't think of a more metal sneaker that came out this year.

$39.99 – $69.99 at Converse.com

Anatomically Correct Chocolate Skull

I like chocolate and I like metal and this item combines my love of both. Who wouldn't love unwrapping a gift of an anatomically correct human skull and then being able to eat it? It's going to cost you though.

$109.45 on Etsy

Metallica – Ride The Lightning Blanket

Metallica puts their likeness on a lot of crap, so if you're buying for a huge Metallica fan, definitely browse their shop. This seems like the most winter-appropriate gift.

$84.99 on Metallica Shop

I'm the Man: The Story of That Guy from Anthrax

Scott Ian has seen and done it all and he's lived to write about it. Learn about the humble beginnings of Anthrax, and thrash in general in this well received autobiography.

$18.28 on Amazon.com

Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult

If the person you're gifting for is into the more kvlt side of things, this book explores the evolution of black metal.

$19.00 on Amazon.com

Murder In The Front Row: Shots from the Bay Area Thrash Metal Epicenter

Who likes to read? This book has some very rare photos of all the big thrash bands of the early 80s. Back when Dave Mustaine and James Hetfield used to be friends. A must-have for any thrash fan.

$27.37 from Amazon.com

Cities of Darkscorch Metal Board Game

This roleplaying game comes with two LPs of music to go with the game. It seems like quite the immersive game for metalheads. The video on the game's homepage will do a much better job of explaining the game than I can in this short space

$100 via Numero Group

ESP EC Vampire Bio Tech Guitar

Look, if you're going to get somebody a guitar for the holidays, it might as well look really cool. And this one looks really cool.

$699 at ESPGuitars.com

Decibel Magazine subscription

Nothing says I love you like a subscription to, in our opinion, the best metal magazine in the world.

$29.95 for 12 issues
