Let’s make this quick. I have an appointment with a bowl of chicken soup.

First up we have  ”Grapes of Wrath,” by Ravage. On the one hand, it’s hard for me not to support a band that satirizes Fox News; on the other hand, it’s hard for me to support a band whose singer calls himself “Al Ravage.” Dude — if you’re gonna use a fake name, why not choose a cool fake name?

Also, if any of the members of this band have read and/or can tell me who wrote The Grapes of Wrath without looking it up on the internet, I’ll give ‘em a shiny nickel.

The Monkeys are cranky today so let’s make this quick. The winner of last week’s funny photo caption contest and proud new owner of 10 random CDs from Prosthetic Records:

Devin Townsend Sr.: “ALL OUR DICKS COMBINED ARE THIS BIG.”

I actually LOLed at that one. This week we’re giving away a three-pack of CDs from Metal Blade Records: Amon Amarth’s The Avenger (reissue, 2CD Digipak), Ravage’s The End of Tomorrow, and Gwar’s latest, Lust in Space. Just come up with a funny caption to the below photo [sent in by MS reader Pelin] and they’ll be yours.
