Uhhhhm . . . I dunno, actually. I found it on a "thread bomb" site.

My understanding is that the guy in the photo is actually a singer for some black/death/Viking metal band---one of those growly ones---and that's his stage persona. Probably originally from an album cover or something.

Your right.

And here I thought it was a character in the movie The Toxic Avenger[doh]

Check the guy on the left.

A lot of younger heathens like this kind of stuff, because it's drawn from our culture and our mythos, but . . . I guess it's true what they say. I must be too old, 'cuz it's too damn loud and I can't understand a word they're singing! [lol]

Yeah, that's kinda the point. One of the other reasons I don't care for it . . . "ooooh, I'm EVIL! Evil and DARK! And ANGSTY!" [really]

That, and I'm of an age to have seen it all done better, heard it all played better. Apart from the growly singing, it's really just the same old riffs. And KISS did the makeup schtick over three decades ago! Judas Priest had better leather! Black Sabbath was evil-ler! [lol]

There ARE some folk metal bands out there that are way cooler than schlock like Immortal et al. Some of 'em doing with traditional Norse/Finnish music what bands like the Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Mollies, and Tossers do with Celtic folk tunes. I'll have to see if I can find some over on YouTube.
