The Metal Project: Metal With Mirth

The Metal Project is what happens when one man with too much time on his hands decides to see exactly how many songs on Youtube have "Metal" in the title.

 For today's post I will be offering you another selection of songs that aren't meant to be taken seriously. Some are Metal bands having fun, others are non-metal bands poking fun. Try and tell the diffference. 

Insidious Torment - Metal Balls (USA 2009)

Honour to: lassewikman

The Channel Surfers - Heaven Metal

Honour to: SkaMusicman777

  Nasty Disaster - We Live For Heavy Metal

Honour to: Victorroland1701

There's no way these guys were going to be left out of this post.

Massacration - Cereal Metal

Honour to: RenJivv
(And how the hell does he hit those notes without doing himself a mischief?)

Metal Shop - Metal Shop

(An early outing for the band that later became Steel Panther)
Honour to: countwitchfinder69

Next up are a band that I think is playing for laughs.
The alternative is frightening.

Sevrance - MetalFire 

Honour to: SevranceHeavyMetal

Some people will tell you that Manowar are already their own best parody.
These Italians would dispute that.

  Nanowar - True Metal of The World 

Honour to: SchwachsinnSchwafler

and lastly

Toehider - But Mostly Metal

(The most metal song ever.

Seriously)

Honour to: VoiceOfApollo

That's all folks.

  1. Sadly, I have listened to all of these more than once at different times. I have found, over the years, that it seems that bands get bored with the same ol' same ol' and they try to mix things up a bit. Sometimes, like Metalica, change their tune and lost their sound and lost their roots, inherently they also lost many fans. There are allot of bands on the market these days who haven't found their own niche in the world so they have to adapt so they can get noticed, sometimes parody music is the key because there are always people like me looking to add something a little funky to the music collection. I run with over 67,000 individual songs on mp3 player and I don't think I have heard the same song twice in 2 years.

    Keep up the great work, I always enjoy visiting your blog!
