Fart metal is here and surprisingly it doesn't totally stink

by Tyler Munro

Not since Crotchduster’s “Mammal Sauce” has there been such a flatulent convergence between metal and farts, and like the sweeping bag of air that blasts forth from the butts of all across the world, “Fart Metal” is very real, very funny and, while totally gross, something you’re absolutely going to watch.

The masterwork of Decrepit Birth drummer Samus Paulicelli, whose previous strokes of video genius include masterful play-throughs of Blink 182’s “First Date,” the Turtles in Time score and Dream Theater’s immeasurably complex “Dance of Eternity,” the song sees the kit-man, who also plays guitar on the song, constructing a more than adequate death metal song that replaces traditional growls with a different kind of shrieks—the kind that comes from Paulicelli’s butt. Because its farts. He wrote and recorded a song using his farts.

Let’s just hope he burned the microphone after.
