heavy metal characters

[Manga-San]

Fucking \m/...

 

[theodyssey]

yeah... symphony x would have to be the masks... just because they are on every album cover (look, they are). And king diamond kicks ass.

The bird-serpent is the evil character represented in Symphony X's "V The New Mythology Suite," just listen to the song "Fallen," and "The Bird/Serpent War" on the cd... it's the creature who brought the death of balance (also a song on the album) to Atlantis by killing their oracle.

 

[ShredManWalking]

I got these from that thread that Jax posted on the story behind that album, btw

 

[Reckless]

mascots have to be on all or almost all of the cd's not just one.

 

[Manga-San]

The bird-serpent war is a representation of the war between the humans and the Atlantians. They use a bird and a serpent because birds came after dinosaurs, and made them extinct. Serpents are of the same family as dinosaurs. It's all a representational thing.

Bird=humans
Serpent=Atlantians

It's to symbolize that the humans won the war and made the Atlantians go extinct...

At least that's what I got from it...

 

[Cincy Vigilante]

back in the day (don't laugh) Motley Crue had Allister Fiend...

 

[AjDeath]

Nah, Angel of Death was about...um...that guy. That mad doctor guy. Shit, I'll get back to you on the name.

Josef Mengele

 

[Dmanx Pit]

Who would win in a fight? Eddie or Vic Rattlehead?

 

[Lane]

Evil Dead - old guy, who's got boils on his face... Post-nuclear holocaust, radiated bastard.

Sodom - Bombenhagel

 

[BlindPanzer]

Blind Guardian has the "hooded man" in each cd

 

[Tool]

Not metal, but the KISS guys and Alice Cooper are really their own Mascots. They're pretty cool too.

In Flames have that ugly flaming homo with dreadlocks that shows up at every live show and tries to sing.

 

[Iced In Flames]

What the fuck is it with you and singers?

 

[anonymousnick2001]

I hate bad ones.

 

[Stormwatch]

I don't understand the question. Is it about guys NAMED in songs? Or is it about guys that appear on album covers?
I also agree with him In Flames have a shit singer. (And no solos? WTF?)

 

[Iced In Flames]

You might not like Matt or Anders. I think they're pretty cool.
And dont gimme no "so solos" shit either.

Look at every two albums. Every two have been in a different style.
And just because a song doesnt have a solo doesnt mean in sucks. Solos are so damn typical and boring anymore because no one is original.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Yeah, the solos argument should die now. Along with Anders.
