A metal show on MTV2. The show is pretty formuliac: Shadows Fall video, Unearth video, 9 minutes of commercials, 8 more minutes of atreyu/avenged sevenfold. 9 more minutes of commercials, shitty videos interrupted by Jamey jatsa (who deserves to die, considering Hatebreed is so shitty), an eighteen visions video, then more commercials, then another unearth video, etc. Sometimes they actually show good videos, but its usually those shitty watered down metalcore bands. I usually get tired before a good video comes on and i change it. Jamey Jasta needs to be kicked the fuck off the show or learn to shut up

A late night show on MTV that once showcased metal and hard rock acts of the time. This gave a big break to many aspiring talents (Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, etc.)

Listening to metal and headbanging while your penis is in your mouth. It will only work if you suck yourself off with the beat of the music.
Guy 1: Dude, yesterday i put on some Iron Maiden and just started to headbang bj
Guy 2: I really need to try that.

Awesome 2005 documentary directed by metalhead Sam Dunn, an anthropoligist from British Columbia. The film studies many topics relating to Heavy Metal, including:
-Who the very first Heavy Metal band is (widely believed to be Black Sabbath, as suggested in the film) as well as the roots of metal
-The backgrounds of Heavy Metal musicians and their fans
-Gender and sexuality roles in Metal
-Why a lot of bands have faced problems with censorship due to their lyrical content, album art, and live shows
-Satanic and/or anti-christian beliefs followed by a handful of Norweigian Black Metal bands, as well as other views on religion, satanism, and other controversial topics when associated with metal.
People interviewed include (but are NOT limited to) Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath, Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden, Alice Cooper, Lemmy of Motorhead, James "Munky" Shaffer" of Korn, Ronnie James Dio, Corey Taylor and Joey Jordinson of Slipknot, Kerry King and Tom Araya of Slayer, Gaahl of Gorgoroth, Alex Webster and George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher of Cannibal Corpse, and many other metal musicians and producers, as well as multiple fans, socioligists, and even one minister.
The film is a largely independent film with limited theatrical release, so very few are totally familiar with it. A sequal entitled "Global Metal" was released in 2008, which is probably just as good but even less known.

Brad thinks Nickelback is Metal, so I'm going to show him "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey" to teach him what real metal is about.
