Wait a minute. Are you saying Blind Guardian have death metal vocals?

Sure they were a bad joke, but that's what's so great about them. They can't play, but the sheer energy hidden behind the wall of noise just stirs the blood. The lyrics are puerile and ridiculous, but that's why they're so much fun. The production is awful, but it's part of what gives their music such a dark feel. Venom may suck, but man do they suck good.
