WHERE’S OZZY WHEN YOU NEED HIM?

Last night I got attacked by a bat. I’m serious. Good thing I have two killer cats at home and they eventually took care of it, but it was scary. EVEN METALHEADS GET SCARED SOMETIMES.

But it got me thinking. There are quite a few animal references in metal, but does anyone else think that it’s kinda weird that there aren’t more bat references? They are pretty dark and evil and shit. Elise and I saw Cancer Bats last summer, but whatever happened to them? Other breeds in the animal kingdom have been represented one way or another. I mean, there’s Lamb of God, Pig Destroyer, Goatwhore, Cattle Decapitation, I Wrestled A Bear Once, Horse the Band… PLUS so many bands now-a-days are big animal rights activists…

What am I getting at? METALHEADS LOVE ANIMALS :) Yet another reason we’re the coolest people ever.
