Get the benighted mug.
The inexplicable sense of peace which descends upon one in the wee hours of the morning.
I was benighted in a pause between beverages at 4am, one evening.

Benighted is one of the best death metal bands ever. Another great brutal metal band from France! Benighted's main influences include Cannibal Corpse and Marduk, their music has evolved through the years by combining different genres with brutal death metal - for example they have had (and always have) a punkish sound in it, other times black metal, and mainly grindcore. I myself put them under goregrind.
But labels dont matter a shit!, because they are FRIGGIN AWESOME!!!11!1
