Beauty in black

What is up with all of the animosity, angst, and tension going on this community as of lately? Why do people have to be all up on the edge of their seats over music? To each his own, if you like Slipknot, fine.. but you don't have to threaten people who don't.

I really like this community, but the way it's going lately really sucks. That last few posts have been nothing but "what is real metal" "I don't care what you say" "If you don't like Slipknot I'll kill you"..

Come on now. Let's be more mature.

Okay, My boyfriend found this hillarious clip. It's Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir singing "Holy Night"

WARNING: may cause your ears to bleed.

God do I love this clip.
