Metal as a genre

" I can't name any bands that are hard rock or 80's shit that sound like them because I don't like Megadeth or anything that would sound remotely similar. Sorry I am not willing to torture myself by reliving the 80's to prove a point."

 

In other words, you're saying they sound like something that you're not actually familiar with, which should sorta preclude you from being able to talk on the subject.

 

"Some would also agree with me"

 

Point me to some of them. I can point you to whole forums of people who will agree with me, show me some who agree with you.

 

"and many more have a lot more colorful words for Megadeth."

 

I can find a lot of people who have colorful words for Megadeth too, but they still don't dispute the fact that they are metal.

 

"Your list contains some true gems (Therion, Eluvitie, At the Gates, Dissection, Emperor, etc) but you also have a predominate "old-school" theme going there."

 

Yes, I prefer good music. And that rules out the majority of death and black metal music, which for the most part, is garbage. Even the bands you list as "true gems" there, other than Dissection, are WAY near the bottom tier of my list in terms of quality.

 

"I won't say bands like Kreator or Overkill or Death Angel, aren't metal I just never liked that stuff. "

 

If those bands are metal, then Megadeth certainly is as well, cause bands like Overkill and Death Angel are the bands Megadeth SOUNDS the most like, not "80's hard rock bands".

 

"But could you name some more bands? Maybe bands I might like? It's hard to take you seriously when your list is pretty much a who's who of bands (though metal) I have never liked."

 

From the death/black metal side of things I don't listen to much, cause frankly, most of it sucks. I've listened to tons of them, hated the music, and as such will never promote it or continue to listen to it. From the growly side of things, I actually listen to and have promoted(I know there's some duplication here, I just don't wanna reread my list and see if I included all these or not)-Dissection, Naglfar, Emperor, At the Gates, Deceased, In Flames(older stuff), Covenant(early), Children of Bodom(older stuff), Brimstone, Amon Amarth, Mork Gryning, Arch Enemy, Carcass, Mortification, Immortal, Sear Bliss, Gardenian, Scar Symmetry, Unleashed, Waylander, Atroocity, Amorbital, Mithotyn, Ensiferum, Eluviete, Bathory, Einherjer, Bolt Thrower, Shadow's Fall, Mercenary, Finntroll, Morbid Angel, Callenish Circle, Absu, Death, Hypocrisy, Ancient Rites, Cynic, Atheist, Dark Tranquility, Benediction, Invocator, Melechesh, Thyrfing...I dunno, there may be more, but as I said, I consider the vast majority of death and black metal to be utter garbage(though still metal) so I don't listen to it.

 

Nah I don't have to preclude myself from talking about it, since it is just my opinion. I've heard shitty rock bands from the 80's, whose names, for obvious reasons, I fail to remember, and I've heard Megadeth. They sound similar to my "untrained" ear, make sense?

 

Point you to them? Ok there is this guy named Robert I met at a show. Umm my boss and co-workers who listen to heavier stuff, Josh (who is a musician), Steven (also musician), Pete, Brandon, Joe, Bob, Billy, Pam, Sarah, Matt, Carl, Mike, Dave (funny huh??), nameless long haired guy (musician), the bartender at Bennigans, random drunk chick #34,597....ok this is stupid. BTW they all live in texas, have fun tracking them down. Still better than faceless nobodies on some message board. Oooh, people on message boards agree with me, I'm special!! And you obviously don't understand subtlety, when I said "many more colorful words," I meant above and beyond saying they aren't metal. I'll be sure to spell everything out for you from now on though. And don't give me a list of people you know personally who agree with you, I don't care.

 

So you hate my metal and I hate your metal. This is just gonna keep going around in a circle. So PLEASE stick to your shitty power-metal, I'll stick my shitty "growly" metal and we will both be happier, well at least I will be. It's just sad i'll never get to see you get drunk on wine coolers (yes you drink wine coolers at your "metal" shows) at a show I am at and end up being the annoying asshole who gets his ass kicked in the pit on principle. You'll never understand shit in the world (and in discussing metal) isn't just black and white. So while Kreator or Death Angel may sound like Megadeth and I think the former two bands are metal, it doesn't mean Megadeth is metal. These aren't mathematical proofs, these are opinions. I can come to whatever conclusion I want to about whatever band I want to, and I don't have to justify myself to anyone. You can THINK I am wrong all you want as well. Funny thing about individuals (and not mindless idiots who think they are right because people they've never met agree with their opinions on a message board) is that based on their experiences in life they come to their OWN conclusions. My experience while listening to shit we BOTH agree is metal, is that Megadeth is NOT a part of that group, you think they are. So what now? You wanna fuck and make up and bash bands like Rhianna or Coldplay together? Or shall we continue this pointless banter? Let me guess, you actually like Rhianna, and will now begin defending her as well? I mean you do like that high-pitched girly vibratto. If she had the guitarist, bassist, and drummer from Megadeth, and did a cover album of RIP where nothing was changed except that Rhianna sung Dave's lyrics like she sings her own, would that be metal?

Not that DK01 needs help or anything, but I'm gonna weigh back in on this

 

I've heard shitty rock bands from the 80's, whose names, for obvious reasons, I fail to remember, and I've heard Megadeth. They sound similar to my "untrained" ear, make sense?

Not really no

 

I've heard shitty rock bands from the 80's, whose names, for obvious reasons, I fail to remember, and I've heard Megadeth. They sound similar to my untrained ear, make sense?

Now it does

 

And you obviously don't understand subtlety, when I said "many more colorful words," I meant above and beyond saying they aren't metal. I'll be sure to spell everything out for you from now on though. And don't give me a list of people you know personally who agree with you, I don't care.

You really are quite simple aren't you? "Colourful words" means not very nice language. DK01 said he knew people that would describe Megadeth with colourful language, what this means is that they don't like Megadeth but would still know that they're metal....can't believe that had to be explained.

 

If she had the guitarist, bassist, and drummer from Megadeth, and did a cover album of RIP where nothing was changed except that Rhianna sung Dave's lyrics like she sings her own, would that be metal?

Yes (although I don't know who rhianna is). You seem to have a hard time grasping what metal is about, the music. Music is 90% of metal and the vocal is then usually just another instrument (lyrics are 0.0057%). But we are going around in circles here, why so much time has been spent debating with someone so dense is beyond me. Someone who's arguement is as stupid as saying Robert Johnson isn't Blues, Beethoven isn't classical and Dr. Dre isn't rap.

 

The only thing I can think of is that you're a troll, cos frankly only trolls are this retarded.

Speaking without knowledge, typical. I've LOVE to hear these "shitty rock" bands from the 80's that sound like Megadeth. I mean, Cheap Trick is a rock band from the 80's, I don't hear too much Megadeth in their music. Foreigner and Journey were pretty big in the 80's, I'm not hearing that Megadeth sound with them either. But hey, in whatever dreamland you live in where Megadeth isn't metal, maybe the 80's rock bands do sound like Deth. Not in reality anywhere, but in your imagination, rock on dude.

 

"Point you to them? Ok there is this guy named Robert I met at a show.

So in other words, you can't find anyone to who'll back you up. You could have just said that to begin with.

 

"It's just sad i'll never get to see you get drunk on wine coolers (yes you drink wine coolers at your "metal" shows)"

 

Actually, I don't drink at all, I'm diabetic which means booze is a no go even if I wanted to drink. But seriously, are you on crack? The last 2 shows I went to were Symphony X/Blind Guardian and Paganfest with Tyr, Eluviete, Enfsiferum, and Tursisas. At both shows, the only alcohol being served was beer. So again, taking another trip to that fantasy land in your head or what?

 

" at a show I am at and end up being the annoying asshole who gets his ass kicked in the pit on principle."

 

That I believe.

 

"You'll never understand shit in the world (and in discussing metal) isn't just black and white."

 

Maybe, but I'm bright enough to understand that Megadeth is metal.

 

"So while Kreator or Death Angel may sound like Megadeth and I think the former two bands are metal, it doesn't mean Megadeth is metal. These aren't mathematical proofs, these are opinions."

 

You can have the opinion that the world is flat if you want, and you can have the opinion that President Obama is a pasty white dude too, if you want. You'll still be wrong on all counts, but hey, it's your opinion.

 

" You wanna fuck and make up and bash bands like Rhianna or Coldplay together? Or shall we continue this pointless banter? Let me guess, you actually like Rhianna, and will now begin defending her as well?"

 

I've heard the name, I've never heard her music. But if you wanna take a go at some non-metal bands I like, I can point you to some.

 

"I mean you do like that high-pitched girly vibratto."

 

Well, those guys sing with far more talent than most death singers can even dream of, but actually, the majority of bands on my list don't have high pitched vocals nor do they use vibrato. As seems to be the norm in your case, you're talking without knowledge. Most of my favorite singers are not high pitched, and most high pitched vocals annoy me, actually, only somewhat less than the growls do(and sometimes more, I'll take a growler over Andre Matos or Timo Kotipelto in a heartbeat). Remind me where the high pitched vibrato is in Circle II Circle, or Aria, or Tad Morose, or Morgana Lefay, or Astral Doors, or Sabaton, or Running Wild, or Motorhead, or...yeah, you get the picture(well, hopefully).

 

" If she had the guitarist, bassist, and drummer from Megadeth, and did a cover album of RIP where nothing was changed except that Rhianna sung Dave's lyrics like she sings her own, would that be metal?"

 

Well, as I said, I've not heard her, but most likely, yes, it'd be metal, cause metal is defined by the MUSIC, not the vocal style. That's why bands with ultra high pitched singing like King Diamond, bands with mid-range powerhouse singers like Circle II Circle, bands with OPERA singers like Nightwish, bands with demented shrieks like Emperor, bands with deep gutteral growls like Nile, bands with constitpated sounding singers like Megadeth, bands with gruff mid range vocals like Testament, and bands with whiny powerless high singers like old Angra ALL fit into metal.

ASC, I think I know what the meaning of my own words are...when you can read my mind then by all means tell me what I mean. I said "Some would also agree with me and many more have a lot more colorful words for Megadeth" and I said "colorful words" cause they say shit like "Not only is megadeth NOT metal but they are one of the shittiest, talentless bands to ever exist. They're all fucking retarded hacks who I hope get to see their families murdered in front of them on christmas eve, right before they are taken into an alley and forcably assraped with a splintered broomstick." Colorful enough for you? no probably not....But either way I had to clarify myself because I didn't realize you two were so stupid that you couldn't make that inference on your own. Though I think DKS understood and is just being a little bitch. You on the other hand are a skell. I can't believe I had to explain THIS.

 

Now DKS, Did I ever point to ANY of those bands and say they sound like them? No I didn't...so go on and put more words into my mouth please. Just because that is your idea of what I meant doesnt mean it was my idea, or maybe I would have brought up those bands. You don't like my explanations, then feel free to ignore them like you have been.

 

Speaking of ignoring, I listed 13 people I know PERSONALLY that agree with me. I said it was stupid because, again, fuck what OTHER people think, I don't need them to justify my own opinion, just letting you know that there are others out there that agree with me, since that seems to be so important to you. You'll have to excuse me for not putting in last names, I don't think they would appreciate that.

 

I am sorry you didn't like my feeble attempt at humor. I was trying to poke fun, and elude to the fact that you, like any metalhead male that drinks wine coolers at a show, are a pussy.

 

Sure I can think the world is flat, and I could think Obama is a pasty white kid if I want to. The difference is there is no universal standard for defining "metal." I am sure there are plenty of bands a lot of other people would call metal that you would sit there and argue them about. I've known people defend HIM as metal. So maybe to you, and ASC, and VH1 and MTV, and some people on a message board, Megadeth are metal. To me they aren't and that's what matters.

 

"" at a show I am at and end up being the annoying asshole who gets his ass kicked in the pit on principle."

 

That I believe.""

 

Which did you do first? Take the quote out of context or not understand it?

 

As for talented singers, like I give two fucks. I don't listen to metal so I can hear the wide range of a vocalist. If I want that I will go pop in Prince or Meatloaf or some shit like that. I guess the whole point of me conceding that without Dave they used to be metal got missed as well. And so we are clear, I am making an exception to rule of vocalist not determining if a band is metal or not because, as I stated before, Dave sucks so much at singing it degrades the band as a whole and IN MY FUCKING OPINION makes them not metal.

 

Now tell me how Riot, Iron Maiden, Dio (even though I actually like his singing), Queensryche, Helloween, Gamma Ray, WASP, and Hammerfall, dont fit into the high pitched, girly vibratto category? These are the type of vocals I am talking about when I say that. I know there are even higher pitched singers, but let's not go there.

 

As for your final comment, Touche. You are absolutely correct.

 

To DoJ, you're right. Megadeth might have sounded like metal, might have acted like metal but that certainly doesn't mean they are.

I was showing you some examples of "80's rock" and pointing out that they sound NOTHING like Megadeth. I could find you tons more 80's rock bands that sound NOTHING like Megadeth too if you want, but I GUARANTEE you that you could NEVER find an 80's rock band that sounds anything like Megadeth. You can argue it all you want, but we both know it's true.

 

"Speaking of ignoring, I listed 13 people I know PERSONALLY that agree with me.

You'll have to excuse me for not putting in last names, I don't think they would appreciate that."

 

You still can't prove that you're not the only one out there who claims Megadeth isn't metal, I've asked for proof, you refuse to give it. You type up random names, I can direct you to multiple people who agree with me, including several metal musicians(Mark Briody of Jag Panzer, Steve Kachinsky of Steel Prophet, several others).

 

"I was trying to poke fun, and elude to the fact that you, like any metalhead male that drinks wine coolers at a show, are a pussy."

 

Why does what one drinks at a show have any bearing on anything? I've known dudes who drink "wine coolers" who could kick just about anyone's ass, and I've known guys who chug beer like it's no tomorrow that nobody in their right mind would wanna piss off too. So as usual, you're both irrelevant and wrong.

Vocals are irrelevant to rather a band is metal regardless of how much the vocalist sucks, you can have a different opinion, but it doesn't make it any less true.

 

"Now tell me how Riot, Iron Maiden, Dio (even though I actually like his singing), Queensryche, Helloween, Gamma Ray, WASP, and Hammerfall, dont fit into the high pitched, girly vibratto category? These are the type of vocals I am talking about when I say that. I know there are even higher pitched singers, but let's not go there.

 

First off, learn what vibrato is. Tobias Sammet from Edguy, Messiah Marcolin from Candlemass, these guys rely on vibratto, Bruce Dickinson and Dio do not.

 

Umm, Mike DiMeio is not a high pitched singer at all, he sings for Riot(and also sang on the last Masterplan CD). I'm guessing the only Riot you've heard was their early stuff? Black Lawless from WASP is also not a high pitched singer he sometimes has high moments, but in general he's mid range, same as Dio. Sure, Helloween's previous singer was high pitched(and I'm not a huge fan of his), their current one really isn't, he tries sometimes but is awful at it. The others I'll give you as high pitched, but I'm not actually a fan of their vocals either, other than Dickinson, who sings high but still with power(and without vibrato). So, according to you, I like girly high pitched singers, and in response, you list...several singers who aren't girly high pitched, and a few singers I don't like...awesome work.

Ok maybe then hard rock, either way I dont care enough to try. Do my work for me slave.

You are just fucking dense. I still can't prove...what because I am not willing to tell you a friend's name and address so you can visit them to verify? Gimme Briody or Kachinsky's contact info (I want a cell phone number otherwise you can't prove it either). Quit nit-picking like a fuckin baby. Give me a FRIEND you know personally that I can contact to verify your info, but I know you dont have any friends that you could reference, which is why you so adamantly point to MESSAGE BOARDS like they are the gods of all that is true in the world. I am sure they all just told you megadeth were metal to get you to shut the fuck up and quit annoying them. BTW prove you ever ran a metal show. While you're at it, prove you ever talked to actual metal musicians. And prove the friend, I am sure you are going to reference, has a true appreciation of metal worthy of me even taking time to listen to them.

Ok did I say BEER? No I didn't. I said W I N E C O O L E R S. Did I say guys who drink wine coolers period? No I quantified it and you STILL missed the whole point of that statement.

 

"Vocals are irrelevant to rather a band is metal regardless of how much the vocalist sucks, you can have a different opinion, but it doesn't make it any less true."

 

I agree completely....too bad everything you think is the complete unalterable truth.

 

"First off, learn what vibrato is. Tobias Sammet from Edguy, Messiah Marcolin from Candlemass, these guys rely on vibratto, Bruce Dickinson and Dio do not."

 

So? Let's discard the rest of my statement because you can't come up with a counter.

 

"Umm, Mike DiMeio is not a high pitched singer at all, he sings for Riot(and also sang on the last Masterplan CD). I'm guessing the only Riot you've heard was their early stuff?

Thanks I am happy you agree. They all still suck, except Dio. And how am I to know that bands you include in a list of "BANDS YOU LIKE AND/OR PROMOTE" are bands you don't really like? I need ASC's psychic powers! Blame yourself for not explaining better. But let me get this straight, you promote bands you don't like? OR You....like bands....you don't like? :misty: Woo personal integrity! Also next time you go to the Ridglea let me know, we should meet up and have a literal pissing contest. I'll bring the water! I also have a few friends I know from outside of the intrawebs that are coming with me to the Carcass/Suffocation/Samael/etc show on the 21st of March that will be more than happy to tell you Megadeth isn't metal. Cause then I would be right, right?? You should come, I'll even pay for your ticket so you can get some education on what REAL metal is.

 

What's wrong ASC? Can't come up with a cover for your utter stupidity except to post a video. I may be "simple" but at least I am not a worthless human being who can't even understand simpleton english. Hell it even took you two times to understand my other simple statement. And what makes your opinion even worth the shit it's laying in? You claim megadeth is metal, you like Tom Waits (whoah dude hardcore!), I assume you like The Doors (which is one of the best bands ever, but doesn't lend much credence to proving you know anything about metal) and....Oh you agree with DKS therefore youre both right. DKS I think you found your first friend!

 

Some say this video can kill you at 1000 yards with a 25kph crosswind, others say if you rub it the right way it will laugh blood, all I know is it is

You involve me why, why why why why involve me in your game of "Who can not use the quote function" properly hence me not going back and reading the horrible blocks of slush you've both typed out.

 

I said what i said about a year ago. I don't really like much metal these days. Leave me out of this.

 

Will do! :misty:

"Ok maybe then hard rock, either way I dont care enough to try. Do my work for me slave."

 

Translastion:I know I'm wrong, I know there is no "80's rock band" that sounds remotely like Megadeth, but I'm gonna keep claiming there is cause I can't bare to be proved wrong.

 

"You are just fucking dense. I still can't prove...what because I am not willing to tell you a friend's name and address so you can visit them to verify?"

 

Have one of em sign up and post?

 

" Gimme Briody or Kachinsky's contact info (I want a cell phone number otherwise you can't prove it either)."

 

I can give you their emails, if that will suffice.

 

"Give me a FRIEND you know personally that I can contact to verify your info"

 

Most of my offline friends don't listen to metal, they tend to listen to stuff I can't stand.

 

"but I know you dont have any friends that you could reference"

 

I have an offline friend from work who reads this boards doofus, you're welcome to ready their welcome thread on these forums if you like. If you'd like me to ask her to listen to some Megadeth and give her opinion on their genre, I can do that.

 

"which is why you so adamantly point to MESSAGE BOARDS like they are the gods of all that is true in the world. "

 

No, I point to message boards because that's where my friends who listen to metal are. My real life friends sadly do not share my love of metal, nor yours for that matter.

 

"BTW prove you ever ran a metal show. While you're at it, prove you ever talked to actual metal musicians."

Ask around.

 

"Ok did I say BEER? No I didn't. I said W I N E C O O L E R S. Did I say guys who drink wine coolers period? No I quantified it and you STILL missed the whole point of that statement."

 

I said wine coolers too chucklehead, learn to read before responding? And you still didn't explain how drinking wine coolers(or anything else, for that matter) at a show makes someone a pussy.

 

"Vocals are irrelevant to rather a band is metal regardless of how much the vocalist sucks, you can have a different opinion, but it doesn't make it any less true."

 

I agree completely....too bad everything you think is the complete unalterable truth.

 

"So? Let's discard the rest of my statement because you can't come up with a counter. "

 

I didn't discard it, I responded to it?

 

"Thanks I am happy you agree. They all still suck, except Dio."

 

How would you know, it's obvious you hadn't even HEARD half of em.

 

"And how am I to know that bands you include in a list of "BANDS YOU LIKE AND/OR PROMOTE" are bands you don't really like?"

 

I do like the bands, I don't like the singers. Same as with the "growly" bands I listen to. You simply assumed that because I like a band, I liked everything about them, when I've already stated, several times in this thread, that's not the case. Same as with Megadeth, Dave's singing blows, but RIP is still good.

 

"Also next time you go to the Ridglea let me know, we should meet up and have a literal pissing contest."

 

Okay, if something comes in I care to see, I'll try and remember to let you know. You can leave the water though.

 

"You should come, I'll even pay for your ticket so you can get some education on what REAL metal is. "

 

Hell, if you were serious, I'd take you up on that. Suffocation blow, but Samael and Carcass have done some okay stuff so it wouldn't be bad for a free show.

 

"(which is one of the best bands ever, but doesn't lend much credence to proving you know anything about metal)"

 

Doesn't lend ANY credence to him not knowing anything about metal either, cause there's nothing that says someone who's a fucking GOD of metal can't listen to anything else. Metal's by far the music I listen to most, but that doesn't stop me from periodically enjoying some Tom Petty, or a little BOC, or some Zep, or Tull, or Dropkick Murphys, or the fuckin Man in Black himself Johnny Cash.

March 21st...I am COMPLETELY serious. If you dont believe me ask TheLogan Prime (on this message board). Ill be in the Dying Fetus, Orgy of the Sick shirt. Doors open at 8, we'll get there about 7 or so. And you know I absolutely hated Suffocation until I saw them live when Carcass/1349 came to austin last year. They put on one of the best live shows I have seen. Terrance Hobbs does fucking awesome guitar work.

 

Now I give up, Megadeth is metal, your superior wit and intellect has convinced me so. I don't know how I ever came to any other conclusion, but I bow down before your awesomness. :pinch:

Leave me out of this.

 

What he said. Do I know you, sir?

 

But seriously, I guess I'll confirm that the show...exists...and that you plan on going? Done and done.

 

I can neither confirm or deny the quantity of piss that may or may not be involved.

 

I'm gonna bring my wine cooler coozy.

Doors open at 8, we'll get there about 7 or so. And you know I absolutely hated Suffocation until I saw them live when Carcass/1349 came to austin last year. They put on one of the best live shows I have seen. Terrance Hobbs does fucking awesome guitar work.

 

Alrighty then, I'll see what I can do. I found out yesterday I'm gonna have surgery upcoming(diabetic eye problems), but I dunno when it'll be, so we'll see.

I know this has all been wrapped up, I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here but I can't resist.

 

If she had the guitarist, bassist, and drummer from Megadeth, and did a cover album of RIP where nothing was changed except that Rhianna sung Dave's lyrics like she sings her own, would that be metal?

If that's not metal, I don't know what the fuck is.

 

Thanks folks, I'm gonna be here all week. Brought to you by Logan, innappropriately making light of domestic violence since 1997.

Maybe if she WAS metal, his fist would look like her face....

 

I can't seem to find links to pics of Chris Brown's fist.

 

Just an educated guess, but I bet she says what's on her mind and there are expletives involved. Or at least she used to. I hope, for her sake, she's a quick learner.

 

I bet at some point some cookie monster growls were involved.

More evidence that Rhianna is metal.

 

 

Anything associated with Goddess Bunny becomes metal. It's a rule. Little known fact: The song was actually written about Goddess Bunny by Prince while he was on a Salvia trip. You can't make this stuff up, people.

 

 

Well...maybe you could.

These are a few of my favorite most metal things.

 

The most metal thing ever is growling along to Havohej in the shower and your mom comes home and she's just about to tell you that vitamin water was ten for ten at Jewel so she got you some and she hears you yelling SODOMIZE THE HOLY ASSHOLE and stops and just thinks about her life for a minute.

 

The most metal thing is taking a trip to the Ukraine and then realizing there's nothing to buy there except cassettes and track pants.

 

The most metal thing is going into the wilderness to reconnect with nature + Satan but then you walk home to get pies that your mom cooked because that's what Thoreau would have done and also your friend from Kinko's texted you and told you the new Krallice leaked.

 

The most metal thing ever is probably a raped nun or a watch with skeleton hands (it's blood o'clock).

The most metal thing ever is when your mom fuckin wants you to take out the garbage again but jesus christ is a shithead you already fuckin did last week so you just crank up the fuckin Gorguts and tell that bitch that the most metal thing ever was when you tore a hole between her pussy and asshole when you were born and she says "that episiotomy wasnt a joke, I still have a scar" and you spit on the floor and say "Happy Mother's Day, bitch."

 

The most metal thing ever is when you spread the AIDS virus through anal blood on public toilets. Why is your ass bleeding and how did you contract AIDS in the first place? Bathroom at the Priest concert.

A student named David Merrill subjected mice to the music of a heavy metal band called Anthrax 24-hours a day to discover how it would affect their ability to learn new things, but instead of completing Merrill’s maze, the heavy metal mice all killed one another.

 

Anthrax: officially metal.

 

Of course, if I had to listen to them 24 hours a day, I would definitely kill each and every one of you with my bare hands. Shit...maybe not even 24 hours. I question my thought processes at the 15 minute mark. I am an unstable man.

 

Also somewhat relevant.
