  • Religion + Animals = Metal?

    Also, should have Metal -> Electricity -> AC/DC, Thunderbolt, Powersurge, etc.

  • John, Metal is what is applied to animals because of religion. or something.

    But you can't argue with:

    Death + Badass Misspellings = Faulkner References

  • lol nice job but what about Slipknot? (if u're gonna judge me and say that it's not real metal: well, neither is disturbed and a few others!)
    what about immortal, and chthonic, and stuff?

    @Oli: yea, i checked out hatebeak: So BADASS!
