Before there were blogs there were these things called magazines, and the only metal magazine we still get excited about reading every month is Decibel. Here’s managing editor Andrew Bonazelli.

It’s that time of the month again, kids, so strap on your pussydiapers and click the play button below to guess next month’s blood-soaked Decibel Hall of Fame. It’s not easy to come up with hints for these — obviously the hint should simply be the accent of the inductee and whatever he or she (“she”… as if!) is alluding to— but in this case, let’s just say this one’s a no-brainer that took a curiously long time to wrangle. Albert hasn’t revealed why exactly it took so long to wrangle, which sucks anecdote-wise, but absolves me of inadvertently blowing it.

Maybe one day if we offer something pricier than a six-month subscription, the contest will be “Identify all the accidental Oxford commas in the issue” or “What is the square root to the fifth decimal of the number of times J. Bennett or Jeanne Fury utilized the word ‘tits?’” For now, we’ll stick to tormenting you with vague, grainy recordings. Album and artist and lots of luck, as always.

Buy yourself a copy of the November 2010 issue of Decibel or, better yet, buy yourself a full subscription, so you can count how many times J. Bennett and Jeanne Fury utilize the word “tits” this month,  and every month.
