   Hmm, Santa was in The Book of Revelations? Hmm, I guess Bill O’Riely was right about the war a on Christmas. Good to know the Tripple Umlaut is still up for grabs.

   Not bad, some good ones in there. Bonus points for including The Cancer Bats, but points deducted for including Crippled Lucifer, which is not a band name but is in fact an album title from Burning Witch.

   Dark Angel appears twice, once on the Death/Metaphorical/Dark arm and also on the Religion/Angels arm.

   In the Catagory for Double Umlaut there’s Motley Crue but no Husker Du? Thats a huge oversight if you ask me…

   That was a lot of fun. Foreign Sounding/Actually Foreign…LOL.

    Cool chart, but a couple of quibbles (okay… three):

    Pantera is not foreign (Arlington, TX)

    Borknagar is listed twice [in the same category]

    Mötley Crüe is missing an ‘e’

    @ Matt, the secret CIA drug experiments.
    @ Norehead, This is a chart of Metal band names. Husker Du was great, but NOT metal.

    Just as a side-note, my great grandfather was Alfred M. Hubbard, to those in the know.

    @norehead. I liked Husker Du. But more than the band, I loved the board game…

    My friends and I in high school were going to create a Chemistry based metal band called Deathyl Methyl. Not sure where that would fit on here.

    TeaFizz, I think its means the name is foreign, not the band

    Where is Lordi? They would fit in multiple classes.

    Nathan:

    Deadly Things/Death/Bad Mispellings/Pointless Mispellings would be your band’s path.

    This is a fun chart. A few things are missing, but I would imagine including everyone would be impossible. I am going to start a band just to include a triple umlaut.

    Where’s Limozeen!?

    Seriously though, great chart. I thought Motley Cru was spelled Motley Crue.
