A smörgåsbord of bands and artists this time around.

Finally picked up a Butthole Surfers icon-external-link-12x12 album—I’ve been meaning to do that since I saw them on an episode of Beavis and Butt-head icon-external-link-12x12 some time back.

Protest the Hero icon-external-link-12x12 seems to be a pretty solid heavy metal band. On first listen, I was actually reminded of the sonic characteristics of Avenged Sevenfold icon-external-link-12x12, with the major difference being that the music is actually enjoyable to listen to. Too bad the Hot Topic icon-external-link-12x12 era of heavy metal doesn’t have clue what constitutes quality music—just give them lots of skull-imagery, and songs with contrived Halloween-style lyrics and redundant chugging guitar riffs.

Also, major props to Haken icon-external-link-12x12 for working plenty of Gentle Giant icon-external-link-12x12 worship into their songs. The latter is such a criminally overlooked and underappreciated band; the former probably is too.

Years pass , and YouTube continues to serve me Metalhead Dating advertisements when I stream music freely through the site. It does this even though I have been (un)comfortably celibate for longer than I care to admit. In fact, I will never get laid again if I’m supposed to navigate the harrowing path of a dating site icon-external-link-12x12 that was designed for loose women covered in bad tattoos and men who enjoy wearing makeup.

I was actually fortunate enough this morning to stumble upon a chat room transcript from two of Metalhead Dating’s users while I was drinking my ginger root tea and reading the latest issue of The New Yorker. Here is an excerpt:

Unfortunately, I couldn’t post anymore of what was said. ChadSpace strives to be a family-oriented website, after all, and there is already more than enough smut on the Internet to last until our children’s children’s children inherit the Earth.
