Basically I'm looking for any metal bands that don't take themselves too seriously, that know how to have fun and just enjoy what they do w/ a lot of optimism and upbeat lyrics w/o pretentious BS!! Any suggestions? Edguy is a band I can think of as band sort of like this, any others?

I'd suggest Primus, I can't really think of any others at the moment.

You probably knew that, but Warszawa is the polish spelling of Warsaw. If it were to be taken seriously, Red Warszawa could mean "Communist Warsaw". Pretty accurate if you look back 25 years.

Hah, you didn't see that one coming, did ya!

I took the liberty of including you in my post so neither of us feel better nor worse. We're both great Babymetal fans and it's all that matters. Love you bro. Handshake

Some humor metal bands:

Psychostick
Dick Delicious and the Tasty Testicles
S.O.D. (if you're into politically incorrect humor)
The Black Satans
Beatallica
Mac Sabbath
Nanowar of Steel
Bad News
Spinal Tap
Dethklok
Vicious Aroma
Sliced Pimples

And there's some fun stuff on Anthrax' "Attack of the Killer B's".

Babymetal is a very entertaining act indeed.

Pulsar - Alive

It's kind of fun metal because of the effects and elements used in some songs.

Could I recommend the most intellectually stimulating act of composition mastery imitating the grace and technique of the classical composers? I present thee...
