They require VERY specific care & are NOT a light commitment!!
They need to be brushed DAILY (sometimes more!)
They need to be taken to gigs on a regular basis.
Their enrichment items can get VERY expensive 🎸🥁🎤
They need plenty of space to headbang.
They are LOUD. Don't even think about getting one if you live in an apartment, your neighbors will not thank you.
They CANNOT be pop-trained. There are ones that like it but you can't force that- it's not typical behavior for them.
YES they can make very loyal companions. YES they look like a lot of fun.
BUT they will get very grouchy if not looked after properly!! Think before you buy & do NOT get them from a breeder jfc don't even get me started. Metalheads should only ever be bred for recreational purposes, not profit.
Ok ok so I headcannon for Hawks that silence is unwelcome because it causes him to think. Not having anything to distract himself from the constant anxieties and worries that plague his mind is borderline painful.
So in his spare time he avidly listens to music because he needs something to combat the silence. But he still feels the need to stay aware (because of his commission background and constant paranoia) so he therefore needs to listen to music that will guarantee there isn’t silence but still allow him to focus somewhat.
And what music is loud yet not distracting? Death metal!
Most people cannot read nor work while listening to music because the lyrics distract them. Therefore classical music and jazz is suggested to work to because there aren't lyrics.
But, if you listen to metal where there is so much screaming you cannot comprehend the words, it has the same effect.
And because Hawks is all about going fast, the tempo of the music would suit his mind better than classical or jazz.
Therefore listening to death metal would allow Hawks to stay alert AND never let his mind be silent!
(I totally headcannon this based on that logic and not the fact that I myself listen to death metal and want Hawks to also)
wow
Can you guys PLEASE listen to Anthrax. Frank Bello just took his shorts off to reveal a pair of boxers with hearts printed on them like some sort of cartoon character and you guys aren’t even tapped in

Shout out to most of the Sonic characters being metal heads. You can't tell me I am wrong.
we need this Korn merch product
so I've been travelling around for the last 2 weeks and was silly enough to buy a big purple suitcase and put a Korn sticker on top of it and now I feel like we need this as an official merch product
(color may vary from the picture)
why this makes total sense to me:
it's easy to find once you landed (everytime it's on this weird moving band, I can see it from a mile away since the color is so piercing to the eye)
you can literally catch the employees getting your suitcase on the plane from your seat
it's the best merch for all kinds of Korn fans and the best product to show everyone around you "hey, I like Korn" even while you're travelling (sorry xD)
so tell me, would you get this suitcase or do you like/understand the idea :D I personally think they should sell it in black, purple and green (to symbolize Jonathan's tracksuits and the typical metal/Korn color)
Here’s a lil Pelle drawing, I didn’t had time to finish it sooner 😔
Quick drawing of Johannes Eckerström 🎪
Yes I disappeared during January and February, I got completely busy with exams :(
I’ll probably disappear again in the following weeks for the same reason 🫠
Happy 20th Bday to Maxgraculus ! 🥀

Got to see Slipknot three days ago in Paris, annnd I wanted to draw a lil Joey 🥁
Metal listeners of tumblr, I am in need of your wisdom. I am curently on a quest to find new bands whose melodies i can consume.
(i listen to almost anything, especially nu-metal right now. But if someone knows any good bands/songs from other subgenres i'd appreciate it very much. Please.)
I listened again to my favourite album of Mägo de Oz (Ira Dei) and the instrumental part of the beginning from minute 1:58 of the album reminds me of a battle against a Pokemon boss 😂😂. Is it just me or does it happen to someone else?
Link to the song, which is called Jerusalem D.C.
By the way, I love the beginning of this album, especially the beginning of this instrumental part, which is Celtic-like.
Am I the only one who thinks the Mirrorverse soundtrack would be mostly power metal?
When I listen to metal while I'm thinking of some scenes to draw I think it would look amazing
Imagine that Mirror Spock listened to Jim of the normal universe and rebelled against the tyrant of his captain. Then imagine a scene where the two are fighting to the death, on the edge of a cliff, remembering all the things they've done together, while Ava of Death of Eleine is playing in the background
And as there are many types of metal, for every scene (sad, scary, happy, fighting...) there is a song that suits.
Or maybe I'm a bit obsessed with metal music...
If you want to listen to the song: Ava of Death
(You can also read the lyrics on the Internet)
Lo siento, tengo que escribir esto porque en mi cerebro tiene sentido y me gusta mucho
I'm sorry, I have to write this because it makes sense in my brain and I like it a lot
Hay una canción que descubrí hace poco que me recuerda a Spones, en la película III En busca de Spock
There's a song I discovered not so long ago that reminds me of Spones, in the film III The search for Spock
Se titula Desde mi cielo
It's entitled Desde mi cielo (From my heaven)
Link to the song (I appreciate if you just listen to it, no need to ship Spones, it's beautiful)
Es una canción de Mägo de Oz (metal). Es una balada (me encantan las baladas) que canta alguien (en mi mente Spock), que acaba de morir. Dice que estaba enamorado cuando vivía, pero nunca se atrevió a decírselo a quien amaba (en este caso Bones). Cuando canta se dirige a aquellos con quienes vivía (la tripulación del Enterprise) en algunos versos, y en la inmensa mayoría a aquella persona especial (Bones)
It's a song by Mägo de Oz (metal). It's a ballad (I love ballads) sung by someone (in my mind Spock), who has just died. He says he was in love when he was alive, but never dared to tell the one he loved (in this case Bones). When he sings he addresses those he lived with (the crew of the Enterprise) in some verses, and in the vast majority to that special person (Bones)
El título Desde mi cielo claramente refleja que su cielo es distinto al que normalmente se piensa. Cielo se entiende al lugar donde se va cuando se muere en el cristianismo, donde te espera Dios. Pero su cielo es distinto. Su cielo es la mente de McCoy. Desde allí les cuida y guía. Desde allí, dirige esta canción, les habla, sobre todo a Bones.
The title From my Heaven clearly reflects that his heaven is different from what is normally thought of. Heaven is understood as the place where you go when you die in Christianity, where God awaits you. But his heaven is different. His heaven is McCoy's mind. From there he watches over them and guides them. From there, he directs this song, he speaks to them, especially to Bones.
I'm going to translate into English the parts I like the most. I have to say that the song won me over from the melody of the beginning with the piano, and every time I listen to it (especially that same melody later in the song but now with an electric guitar), it breaks my heart. It's an intentionally sad song and I can feel it (even more if you think about Spock's death and the rest of the crew suffering his loss) 🥺
Voy a traducir al inglés las partes que más me gustan. He de decir que la canción me ganó desde la melodía del principio con el piano, y cada vez que la escucho (especialmente esa misma melodía más adelante en la canción pero ahora con una guitarra eléctrica), me parte el corazón. Es una canción intencionadamente triste y yo lo puedo sentir (más aún si piensas en la muerte de Spock y al resto de la tripulación sufriendo su pérdida) 🥺
To the crew:
Ahora que está todo en silencio
Y que la calma me besa el corazón
Os quiero decir adiós
Porque ha llegado la hora
De que andéis el camino ya sin mí
Hay tanto por lo que vivir
Now that all is silent
And calm kisses my heart
I want to say goodbye
Because the time has come
For you to walk the road without me
There is so much to live for
To McCoy:
Pero, mi vida, yo nunca podré olvidarte
Y solo el viento sabe lo que has sufrido por amarme
Hay tantas cosas que nunca te dije en vida
Que eres todo cuanto amo
Y ahora que ya no estoy junto a ti
Te cuidaré desde aquí
But, my dear, I can never forget you
And only the wind knows what you've suffered for loving me
There are so many things I never told you in life
That you're all that I love
And now that I'm no longer with you
I'll watch over you from here
To the crew:
Sé que la culpa os acosa
Y os susurra al oído: "pude hacer más"
No hay nada que reprochar
I know that guilt haunts you
And whispers in your ear: "I could have done more"
There is nothing to reproach
Y cuando todos los instrumentos están sonando al final, de repente todo para y quien canta dice:
Yo nunca os olvidaré
And when all the instruments are being played at the end, everything stops and who is singing says:
I'll never forget you (in plural)
🥺😭
Wikihow mosh pit go crazy
I am once again using this templete

Some fanart I did for someone who's music I listen to on the daily. If you like heavy instrumentals and powerful vocals, you should check out Daedric. Juuusssttt sayin'.
Hold on. HOLD THE FUCK ON.
Babymetal does it again with the matches made in Heaven. Bloodywood is so incredibly cool; how HYPE is this collab, damn, what a massive win for Asian metal! And this animation?! Did you guys see Babymetal's celestial fox spirit?! Jayant Bhadula having badass saiyan powers?!?! I'm over the moon.
Bekhauf (बेखौफ) means Fearless. Perfect title, perfect everything!
