Metal Inquisition Sentences You to Death by Guillotine

When the evil geniuses over at Metal Inquisition do something, they do it all the way. Last week, they posted thorough results of what must have been hours upon hours of strenuous research: they hypothesized that by searching a generic but brutal word such as 'guillotine,' scores of bands could be found on the internet. And they were right. In all, eleven different 'Guillotines' (or minor variations thereof) were discovered and examined in detail. Here's a sample:

Guillotine

Like I needed any more reasons to think Sacramento is the worst city in America (second would have to be Greensboro, NC), here come these assbags. Is the bass player wearing a trench coat or was he getting a hair cut right before practice? "Thanks for the haircut, Kayleen. Sorry, I don't have time to take off the faux-silk robe, I gotta get to practice! ... Oh, no we're still practicing at grannie's. She hates that Exploited poster I put up in the living room every time we practice. Her maid is Mexican, so, yeah, I use her flag to cover my 4x12." They have a song up on their myspace page (they got 75 fans, mostly grannie's friends, I'm sure). I'll save you the pain, it's as bad as the band looks. They recorded it using gramma's tape recorder. Hey, they need a drummer, so if you wanna relocate to Sac, go for it. Judging by what I heard, knowing how to play drums is optional.
Read the whole post here. Our only complaint? No links. Not that a quick search or two wouldn't turn up most of these glorious Guillotines.

Oh and while you're over there, be sure to stop by their post on MetallicArt. It's delightful.
