Anybody heard of this band? They're a German group that makes what they call "Celtic Melodic Death Metal" and what I call "Comically Bad on a Truely Epic Scale".
What lyrics I can actually make out all seem to be about real-life battles. Not battles that actually happened mind you, but battles that don't involve goblins and dragons and whatnot. So I actually have to give them points for that over most metal bands.
But these guys are like what Dethklok would be if they were supposed to be taken seriously and taking themselves seriously as well. They're without a doubt talented musicians, as evidenced in the instrumental, "Ar Nasc Fola." No, I didn't just have a laughing fit and slam my face on the keyboard, all of their songs seem to be named in Gaelic, so they could be called "Rockwulf Doesn't Get The Joke" for all I know, which would actually be pretty awesome now that I think about it.
There is the main singer who is "TOTALLY METAL! (c) " but every once in a while the other band members chime in and the sound of this had the same effect on me as if Spinal Tap or Tenacious D jumped on the chorus. I couldn't stop laughing.
