fueled by fire - spread the fire

I'm hearing some bizarre combination of Trialed By Fire and Baptised In Fire And Ice in my head now. Thank you, because it's a rocking good time at the OK Corral tonight.
 
Ugh. Album covers of thrashers killing emo kids and singing about how cool thrash music is....my oh my. Playing genuine thrash is fine in this day and age (just look at Lethal!) but going out of your way to make it retro-cool is uber gay.

Don't write lyrics about how cool thrash is -- write lyrics instead about being baptised in fire or hitting the lights.
 
On the other hand, Heavy Metal Hamsters is perfectly acceptable.

A moment of silence for the many years Kai Hansen has wasted gaying it with Gamma Ray when he could have been gaying it up with the more acceptably gay Helloween.
 
I decided to humor myself and read one of their songs lyrics:

Look at the burning sky Flames of demise
The earth screams of pain
The birth of metal can not be tamed
Winter Sun freezes the land
Tornado of Soul filled with the dammed
Judas rising from the abyss,
Metals birth can not be missed.
Metal militia sweeps across the land
Salvation for those who hold metal in their hands
Death in the Iron Maiden for those who are week
Black Sabbath today metal reign is at its peek
Venom from his serpent fangs
Slithers its way into your veins
Slayer of the weak, you are next
Get reay for your Megadeth
In the Metal Church
Read the book
Testament reveals
This is the truth
Meta will reign
And you shall be forever in pain

Between this, and the usage of the statement "Thrash is back!" (I've been hearing those words at thrash shows since I started going to concerts. And every time I hear them, I scream out "It never left") as a song title, definitely on the ignore list. Could be the greatest thrash album ever written, still wouldn't listen.
