Death Metal

Death metal is one of the extreme genres of heavy metal, along with black metal, thrash metal and... well, they're the only other ones worth noting. Death metal has roots in 80's thrash metal, usually in bands like Slayer and Venom, however, many bands also have roots in Grindcore, such as Carcass, Napalm death and Bolt Thrower. The genre is thankfully under-aprecciated, owing to it's fast, distorted guitars, rapid druming and blast beats, and low, "growling" vocals. It is actually good that the sub-genre is unknown, because many bands in metal have history of selling out after they "make it". Metallica for example, have a huge history of pissing on their thrash fans with every new album since the black album. Carcass is probably the best example of a death metal band, as it covers genres associated with death metal: death metal, grindcore (or goregrind) and melodic death metal. Carcass also tends to be the best death metal band in existence. A recent trend in Scandanavia seems to involve crossing genres, Children of Bodom, for example, are said to be a mixture of melodic death metal, melodic black metal and power metal. Despite it's dismissal by the mainstream music industry, death metal has many talented musicians, the "death growl" for example is extremely difficult to master, guitars can be incredibly complex, especially in melodic and even more-so, technical death metal, drums are fast and the best drummers incorporate difficult and complex techniques. If power metal is for fantasy nerds, death metal is for people who drink whiskey and shit dynamite, not unlike thrash metal and black metal.

Arabian Death Mask

The sexual act of stretching one's testicles over the eyes of another (known as the arabian goggles), but also placing the anus over the receiver's mouth at the same time.

I was going to give her the Arabian Goggles, but I decided to go full out with the Arabian Death Mask.

I had to beat them to death with their own shoes

Phrase proclaimed after breaking into a candy store at the edge of town, wrestling the Bengal Tiger they have for a guard dog, and beating the shopkeeper and his son to death with their boots.

We had to find 1000 brown M&M's to fill a brandy glass or Ozzy wasn't to go on stage that night!
