Parrots and Pitbulls: The new metal frontmen?
With mainstream metal becoming more and more corporate, where can a real metal fan turn? Try pet metal. HATEBEAK is an extreme metal act with ear-crushing guitars and head-pounding drums. The difference is the "singer" is a parrot called Waldo. Sadly, HATEBEAK (photo) won't be playing Ozzfest next year: Waldo is scared of loud noises. He even has to record his vocals separately from the rest of the band. But you can look forward to his duet with death metallers CANINUS (web site), whose "singing" is provided by two pitbulls named Budgie and Basil (photo). Listen to samples of the two bands' music:
HATEBEAK - "God of Empty Nest" (mp3)
CANINUS - "Locking Jaws" (mp3)
