STAND-UP COMEDY FOR BLACK METAL FANS

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009 at 3:45pm by Axl Rosenberg

Also first seen on the excellent Metal Injection: this video, originally posted on College Humor, of stand-up Adam Newman schooling the attendees of a show at UCB (Upright Citizens Brigade – which MI correctly dubs “the mecca of alternative comedy in NYC”) on the ins and outs of Mayhem.

Some tr00 kvltists might not find this funny, and accuse Newman of mocking metal. They should go burn down a church so we can have them arrested already.

    Funny but even he get’s some shit wrong. Maybe for the sake of the joke but still.

  • Hector says:

    Way to go. He said everything exactly how it was stated on vh1. very talented indeed.

    • Dilznoofus says:

      Yeah, but he didn’t do it with one of the standard crappy VH1 voice-overs and/or Brett Michaels. Those who can do anything VH1 without the aid of Brett Michaels and his army of STD vending machine women are good at things.

  • I'm not racist, but I hate Oceano says:

    If you didn’t laugh at that you are a Bon Jovi fan and you are wrong.

  • key says:

    Hellhammer!

  • Ziltoid says:

    I’m all for black metal humor, but he didn’t really say anything besides the obvious. Still, I chuckled a bit.

  • SolaceInNothing says:

    LOL fucking aye man, thats great.

  • Canvas Of Flesh says:

    Pretty funny.

  • BlakMetallistKrieg says:

    If you take offense and have a stick up your ass over this, you take music waaaay too seriously. Shit, if I wanted to be serious all the time I’d listen to gangster rap or some shit like that.

  • Zosimus says:

    He missed the funniest part of the whole story, which is that it’s all going to be a movie starring one of the fucking goons from the Twilight series.

  • LEGIONS: IRON AND STEEL says:

    He’s mocking VH1, not metal.

  • Blashyrkh says:

    At first I couldn’t really understand why everyone was laughing… someone even guffawed when he said “Euronymous”. they’re obviously dosed up to their eyeballs on crystal meth to even know which way the fucking stage is.

  • Mary Bowers says:

    I am a fan of mayhem, I still thought is was funny. He mocked VH1 more than anything.

  • Tanner says:

    Made. My. Day!!!!!

  • Paul says:

    Black metal makes me laugh.

  • B. Ewing says:

    He needs to work on his delivery. its cool he was talking about mayhem’s history, but he sucked at making me laugh.

  • ben says:

    Pretty funny.

  • He did nothing but state the obvious, but nonetheless, the delivery was spot on! Funny shit.

  • Charlie B says:

    He was rightly making fun of VH1 Most metals moments series, which as he showed is hardly about metal, than BM or Mayhem. VH1 blows ass.

  • BrutalJay says:

    This guy is my new favorite comedian

  • Barry Gilpin says:

    It was funny when he said “it was number 69!”

  • i think says:

    he told a basic story you can read in a few seconds after a google search.. you dont need to be a comedian to do that.

  • RobotScythe says:

    If you’re taking this shit too seriously you’re on your way to becoming a Juggalo. Learn to laugh at yourselves.

  • Like it or not, he’s got a hell of a point!

  • prives says:

    “Bon Jovi’s done nothing related to metal, unless you count… everytime I listen to Bon Jovi I want to smash myself in the face with an iron”.

    Gold!
