I can't say what I want to, even if I'm not serious.

Today's Metal Track is Hush by Tool. This is off of their 1992 major label debut EP Opiate. This was their first ever video and it, along with the song, are protests against Tipper Gore and her censorship movement in the late 80s. The signs worn by the band in the video are a parody of the "Parental Advisory: Explicit Lyrics" label that was introduced in 1990. Ironically, the label backfired and made those albums even more popular!
This video is still the only video to feature the band members. They were also in their extremely popular video for Sober but just via brief flashes.
Exploring Heavy Metal and all its glory. Heavy Metal is often misunderstood and thought to be just a bunch of guys banging and screaming when in fact it can be extremely thoughtful, intelligent, and sincere. Expect some throw-down-head-banging, chill mood metal, and gloomy death metal that you're probably not going to hear on the radio. On the weekends we'll mix things up with a Weekend Wildcard and an Easy Like Sunday Morning Track to get you over your hangover!
