What Y'all Listening To?

In doing research for a character and trying to find an appropriate picture, I found Blackened Nocturn Slaughtercult (what a name!). Female black metal vocalist/guitarist who absolutely kills it! And it's trve kvlt black metal--no soft parts here like, say, Jinjer (which I consider more rock-leaning anyways).

I went into a public-'ouse to get a pint o' beer, 
The publican 'e up an' sez, "We serve no red-coats here." 
The girls be'ind the bar they laughed an' giggled fit to die, 
I outs into the street again an' to myself sez I:

O it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, go away"; 
But it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play, 
The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play, 
O it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play.

I went into a theatre as sober as could be, 
They gave a drunk civilian room, but 'adn't none for me; 
They sent me to the gallery or round the music-'alls, 
But when it comes to fightin', Lord! they'll shove me in the stalls!

For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, wait outside"; 
But it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide, 
The troopship's on the tide, my boys, the troopship's on the tide, 
O it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide.

Yes, makin' mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep 
Is cheaper than them uniforms, an' they're starvation cheap; 
An' hustlin' drunken soldiers when they're goin' large a bit 
Is five times better business than paradin' in full kit.

Then it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, 'ow's yer soul?" 
But it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll, 
The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll, 
O it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll.

We aren't no thin red 'eroes, nor we aren't no blackguards too, 
But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you; 
An' if sometimes our conduck isn't all your fancy paints, 
Why, single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints;

While it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, fall be'ind", 
But it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind, 
There's trouble in the wind, my boys, there's trouble in the wind, 
O it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind.

You talk o' better food for us, an' schools, an' fires, an' all: 
We'll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational. 
Don't mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face 
The Widow's Uniform is not the soldier-man's disgrace.

For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!" 
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot; 
An' it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' anything you please; 
An' Tommy ain't a bloomin' fool - you bet that Tommy sees!

What do you get when Metallica settles down to play some Call of Cthulhu?

You get...

THE THING THAT SHOULD NOT BE
 

Not dead which eternal lie

In stranger aeons death may die

Drain you of your sanity

Face the thing that should not be

Fearless wretch

Insanity

He watches

Lurking beneath the sea

Great old one

Forbidden site

He searches

Hunter of the shadows is rising

Immortal

In madness you dwell

I don't think I can post any of the lyrics to the song, but I've slowly been getting back into my Alestorm binge and that means listening to a lot of Seventh rum of a seventh Rum.

 

Pirate Party Time has lived in my head rent free since they released the song, but right now I'm hooked on "Cannonball" which is uh... Not very PG-13 lyrically, admittedly.
