Subject: ITS METAL!!!!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!

Okay,
Bare with me on this (not even sure where to put this Topic). I wanted to do this for awhile so here it goes . . .
But basically the idea was, if you see, find, bought anything that has "Metal" in it, that wasnt exactly a Metal Band, Performance, Audio, you could put it here, no matter how corny, cheesy, subtle, funny ... still dont get it? Okay-how about this as an example:
A Shirt Company called "Threadless" had this (dare I say as a Metalhead) cute little cartoon on a T, but actually I saw it over the weekend on a Thermos Bottle, so these guys have been working with Dell Computers, Thermos, and possibly more, to put up various graphics from various Artists from around the world. On a label stuck on the Thermos Bottle, the Artist said:
Metal Fan
Ole Ivar Rudi, Norway. Threadless member since September 2005
'I
came up with this design after hanging out with a bunch of Swedish
metal fans at a festival, who all looked exactly like the dude in the
image.'
So maybe you get it. Any weird, cool stuff with a Metal topic (I'm trying to find singer "Norah Jones" on a PBS show called "Tavis Smiley" where she was talking about her fans saying "Hmmm, your music has changed but, I guess I'll get used to it' - which is nice but strange... its not like I've gone Death Metal or something" ).
I'll add more when I can remember all those other examples that seemed to have flown out of my brain . . .
Heres the Threadless site: http://www.threadless.com/?mkwid=sr4KcLzfE&pcrid=5875112784&kwd=threadless&mt=e&gclid=CJPXmpv_yqgCFRs5gwod3yZjsA" rel="nofollow - http://www.threadless.com/?mkwid=sr4KcLzfE&pcrid=5875112784&kwd=threadless&mt=e&gclid=CJPXmpv_yqgCFRs5gwod3yZjsA
And Thermos: http://www.thermos.com/threadless.aspx" rel="nofollow - http://www.thermos.com/threadless.aspx
I'm VERY curious what you Metal maniacs will come up with . . .

(From Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_metal_%28chemistry" rel="nofollow - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_metal_(chemistry , with just a little judicious editing)
1. "Heavy metal is a member of a loosely-defined subset of elements that exhibit metallic properties. Many different definitions have been proposed. The term heavy metal has been called a "misinterpretation" due to the contradictory definitions and its lack of a "coherent scientific basis". There is an alternative term http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_metal" rel="nofollow - toxic metal , for which no consensus of exact definition exists either. As discussed. depending on context, heavy metal can include (lighter) elements and can exclude some of the heaviest metals. Heavy metals occur naturally in the ecosystem with large variations in concentration.
Motivations for controlling heavy metal are diverse. Some of them are dangerous to health or to the environment, some may cause corrosion, some are harmful in other ways. Some of these elements are actually necessary for humans in minute amounts while others are carcinogenic or toxic, affecting, among others, the central nervous system, the kidneys or liver, or skin, bones, or teeth.
Heavy metal pollution can arise from many sources but most commonly arises from the purification of metals. Through precipitation of their compounds, heavy metal pollutants can localize and lay dormant. Unlike organic pollutants, heavy metals do not decay and thus pose a different kind of challenge for remediation."
2. Light metals are http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal" rel="nofollow - metals of low http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_weight" rel="nofollow - weight . The cut off between light metals and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_metals" rel="nofollow - heavy metals varies. Additional metals are often included as well. Metals heavier are usually called heavy metals. Light metals are generally less http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxicity" rel="nofollow - toxic than heavy metals. Other light metals are toxic in large amounts.
...I think these say pretty much the same thing as most definitions of the music that I've ever read...

Here ya' go . . .
Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt is a guest on Conan O Brian about "Hesher" a movie that has to do with this Metal guy that comes into the life of a boy who is having problems in his life. Very interesting conversation about Metallica and his love for Metal . . . then he goes NUTS Slam Dancing :
(This will probably be taken down so see the other versions)

The movement's main tenets are as follows:
1. To deafen the whole population of earth (including roadies, dogs, and the deaf)
2. To legalize murder in http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Norway" rel="nofollow - Norway , the country with the lowest murder rate in the world.
3. To overthrow the fashion scene by introducing all-season, barbed-wire-coated, spiked and uncomfortable faux-armour.
4. To destroy http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Christianity" rel="nofollow - Christianity and replace Christian ideologies with fascism and barbarism. Much like the http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Jains" rel="nofollow - Jains .
5. To splinter into hundreds of new and increasingly obscure sub-genres every day, so as to make less money.
666. To rid the planet of http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/You" rel="nofollow - all human wastes of flesh and bone , including themselves.
7. To destroy all colors and replace them with grey and black.

Because thats the "Trend",
These people piss me off . . .
As a Christian myself, it always amazes me what they (These "Christians") are trying to "Sell",
are they "Saving" or are they themselves selling "Fear", while making stuff up like Playing
under Demonic Possession? How about playing very well but being stupid enough to sing
about negative stuff to piss people off just for the sake of it. I know the same could be said about Christian Metal, but its all about "Hope" not deceit, if we
go by doctrine, not "Christian Mad Zealots" who want to kill/persecute others because they
believe in something else. Thats not the Mission.
But I see these Vids, and I dont believe these folks are spreading the Gospel but "selling"
and spreading Fear, Ignorance and whatever Church they belong to. A "hidden agenda".
These folks have moved on from "Elvis" and his pelvis to Rock Musics that they carefully
pickout that has some sort of "Image" that they can use for their selling purpose. And now
its the "Trendy" Metal Bands singing about negatives to sell records to kids that may be going
through some serious problems, but they embrace darkness cuz its "cooler". But some are
actually okay, they just like crappy Metal , and go to Hot Topic to buy the trend/image to
wear. Each buying what they are selling . . .
I know that Metal is supposed to be "Dark" and many think us Christians are nuts but its
got me through a lot and given me hope. And the Metal I'm into talks about all kinds of
subjects, not just Dark places (and I enjoy a good "story", just not a Gory one ).
These can also be Video "Trolls" to make people Clash. For myself, good music is just
good music, I dont Pray to it, or exalt it higher than my beliefs. To each his own, just dont
threaten or "push" your negativity on me, be it Christian or the "Dark Forces that will
Consume all you believers" Crap (Crap imo ). BTW - If you ARE a Christian, and youre "Fearing" these musics, shouldnt you be stronger
with your faith? Pick-up a Guitar and fight back!
Right now I'm listening to Headspace "I am anonymous" because its awesome.
. . . I will now commence to headbanging . . . RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!!
