[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/amg-player/) [](https://travis-ci.org/desbma/amg-player) [](https://coveralls.io/github/desbma/amg-player?branch=master) [](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/amg-player/) [](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/amg/)
Angry Metal Guy Player (AMG Player) is a Python multi platform command line tool to automatically play tracks from [Angry Metal Guy](https://www.angrymetalguy.com/) reviews.
I created this because:
I like Angry Metal Guy, and discovered great music (both metal and totally non-metal) thanks to their reviews
I often disagree with their ratings (in fact I disagree more often than I agree), both for overrating and underrating
Even when I disagree, I like reading their reviews
I want to listen to the music before I read the review, to avoid getting influenced
To be efficient, I want to listen to the tracks like a radio, and read the review to learn more only when I like something
## Features
Can work either in interactive mode (manually select tracks) or totally automatic (play new tracks like a radio)
Supports embedded tracks from: YouTube, Bandcamp, SoundCloud
Play YouTube video if available, or generate a video on the fly with the cover image + audio track(s) (requires FFMpeg or Libav)
