This baby lamb from Norway was born with perfect black metal corpsepaint

by Tyler Munro

Earlier this year, extreme metal lost a legend—Biquette, the grindcore loving goat, sadly passed away. Today, we learned of her spiritual successor, an absolutely adorable lamb named Batlam born on a Norwegian farm on Easter Sunday.

Like Grumpy Cat, Batlam—yes, he’s named after Batman—was born with its fur shaped and shaded in a near-perfect corpsepaint pattern. Unlike grumpy cat, it’s a fucking lamb. From Norway.

Here’s hoping we can keep the thing from being sacrificed—stay away, Mayhem!

Need more proof that this lamb is more metal than you? Paste your shitty, scratchy band logo on this ready made artist rendering below and we guarantee* the fans will come flocking.
