Don’t listen to Metallica and drive

Here is a clip from Romania with a Metallica fan too busy listening to Master of Puppets to notice the large SUV cutting him off. Shit happens, I guess.

I don’t know who was behind the wheel but I assume it was Dracula.

Don’t worry, both drivers are fine and have no injuries. I hope they learned their lesson: When driving, only listen to Pantera.

Clipping Death

Ever since Metallica won the loudness war in 2008, this clip has been floating around YouTube. Not only is it a great cover, but the lyrics are pretty funny (and true) and the Photoshopped album covers in the video itself are hilarious.

All in all, this is a great video and I’m surprised it doesn’t get as much attention as it should. Since news is slow as shit right now, might as well post random shit here to pass time.

Enjoy the video. It might be old but I bet many people haven’t seen it. Read more about the guys behind it here.

Friday Top 10: Most pretentious non-metal videos

I consider music videos a proper art form, I really do. I’m actually quite saddened by how less important they are today, it used to be pretty exciting waiting for your favorite bands to release music videos when their new albums were due.

But some videos are just bad. Others are pretentious as hell, and what I mean by that is, they try to either be something they’re not or try to lecture the viewer about something. Most of them are just failed visual metaphors. So I’m gonna take a look at 10 of those videos. This is the non-metal edition, all-metal Top 10 coming next week, so stay tuned.

I should point out my credentials: Beer loving, Dorito eating couch potato with about 15 years of MTV watching experience. I know my shit. Ready for this? Make the jump.
