Luckily we have a new phrase, cf steel panther

Apparently some band by the name of Weezer are planning on releasing an album of b-sides soon. The cover art work is apparently as shown below.

Luckily, as out dated as it is: the term is more known for it's roots amoungst the Manowar crowd, the term of course is used by many other groups, each proclaiming theirs is the true metal [usually genre purists- i.e. thrash, death etc], when in fact the beauty of metal and the reason why it has survived as long as it has is it's adapability, essentially, it's all inclusive nature [of the music, not the fans]

I foresee a few mainstream radio/tv people having fun with it, but like the Eagles of Death Metal [who, disappointingly hae nothing to do with death metal] the use of a reference to metal is ironic, or something. i'm hoping the album is actually called this- because it's ever so easy to photoshop pics these days, and if i've been had- i'll look the fool. aye? [I don't wanna fact check it, cos that'll mean looking up Weezer... *dry heaves*]
