Heavy Metal Band Name Flow Chart

This flow chart pentagram breaks down heavy metal's verdant band names, covering genres from The Occult (White Zombie, Burning Witch) to General Creepiness (Gorefest, Burning Tomb), flowing from Badass Misspellings (Korn, Eyehategod) to Pointless Misspellings (Def Leppard, Alcatrazz), and even including Faulkner References, like As I Lay Dying, The Sound and the Fury, and Corncob Rape, believe it or not, a reference to his Sanctuary, which apparently wasn't.
