umlauts

Rock Pocks

Speckled is your Öyster and freckled is your Crüe,
Spıñal is your Motör and Hüsker is your Dü.
The diacritic critics may de-tittle in their punditry –
But I say, let umlauts roll with wänton-döt fecündïtÿ.

The ‘n’ in Spinal should of course have an umlaut, not a tilde, but the WordPress font just isn’t up to such awesomeness.

Though I always felt sorry for the German bands, who couldn’t be such Umlaut Louts – well, unless they gave their band a name in English – so The Scörpions could have gotten away with it, but not Rämmstein

But of course, when it comes to the real stars of heavy metal, nobody is higher than Boötes !
