Horns up, Metalheads. Metal Injection has posted a hilarious and educational Flowchart of Heavy Metal Band Names, which is just hours of crazy fun. While anal retentives will find the chart to be far from completist, it is fairly in-depth and even includes a few “mistakes” – such as listing “Led Zeppelin” under misspelled band names, then misspelling the band’s actual name. Also, the category of “Deadly Things” includes Death By Chocolate, which is actually a British retro psychedelic band whose music is not metal in the slightest. Lots of fun!
