I like! Love it how there's an umlaut section!

there is actually is a language-geek shirt out there somehwere that says "the Umlaut: the most metal of diacritics".

and even Wiki has an article about the uses of the umlaut in metal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_metal_umlaut

I love that article. Especially the part where they explain that the "n" with an umlaut is only used in a small part of Central America! I blame Allen Lanier.
