This image, which nicely compliments the video below, is for a 1993 metal comp that featured some pretty ripping bands, including Eucharist, Dissection, Impaler, At the Gates, Pitchshifter and Therion, along with a bunch of groups we've never heard of. Good luck tracking it down. But before you try, check out this Norwegian TV ad [...]
You can spit raw pig organs out into the crowd, play blast beats at deafening volume or wear enough corpse paint to clog your pores until next Halloween, but the real test of whether a musician has balls of steel can b tested most effectively by an eight year old kid asking them where babies come from.
In this clip from the 'Bits of Johnny Orlando Jr. Antibiotic Resistent Metal Show,' a young well-dressed boy named Johnny Orlando Jr Jr asks various extreme metal musicians the question every parent dreads most, and most of the rockers wuss out, including Carnifex, Arsis,
Amusing answers come from Misery Index, who say, "They used to come from Storks, but we ended up killing all the storks. So now it's up to mommies and daddies again." And Fear Factory drummer Gene Hoglan says without flinching that babies come from "The Pits of Hell."
Only Fear Factory Burton C. Bell shoots straight with the kid, explaining, "When a man and woman are in love, or even if they're not in love, when they have something called sex the man inserts his penis into the lady's vagina, and when he ejaculates inside of her, the sperm will flow through her uterus up into her ovaries, and the sperm connected to the ovaries, and that's when the genesis of a baby begins."
Way to go, Burt. You've probably scarred the kid for life.
