Heavy Metal Monk
Came across this piece of news from somewhere on the net - a Franciscan monk belonging to the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin is the lead singer for his own heavy metal band! The band called Fratello Metallo has even been the opening act at a heavy metal concert. Though I could not understand the lingo in the following YouTube video, drag to 3:20 and you can see his own interpretation of why he shows the "horns" at concerts. :)
Kinda hilarious, but you gotta give it to the bugger. And he has told that his fellow Capuchin friars were supportive of his passion, ''except for a little reprimand'' six years ago following an appearance on a television show - the last time he agreed to do TV.
An Old Monk.

What the hell are Metallica thinking?
I started hating this band from the time they lashed out against Napster. Since then, their music has really started sucking really bad too. My other favourite Metal feed for the day - MetalSucks couldn't have said it better - "If I want to download a Metallica show, I’ll download an old one from when Cliff Burton was alive and Lars could still kinda sorta play drums; and, oh yeah, I’m not afraid of Lars’ lawyers, so if I want to download the album, I’ll just do so for free and keep my twenty-five bucks, thank you (and after the hat trick of suckiness that was the band’s last three albums, I vowed I’d never pay for Metallica music again until I’d heard it front to back and could be 110% positive that the juice was worth the squeeze)."
Damn interesting read - read the whole article here.

Maiden Heaven
I came across this bit of news from my daily staple diet of Metal news - Headbanger's Blog. Brit metal mag Kerrang! is giving out a copy of the album - Maiden Heaven - A tribute to Iron Maiden with its next issue. Some cool metal bands have covered Iron Maiden songs and you can listen to some of them on the Kerrang! site. Check it out.
