It’s been a while between photo posts, but we’re ready to share the mad­ness again!

First up, we have some heavy metal broth­ers from Brazil with Jackie Slaugh­ter of Cana­dian band Skull Fist:

Awe­some work guys, and two beers towards our total.

Next up, two pics were sub­mit­ted to our Flickr group by Mir­jam Otto. Both taken in a place I know and love very well – the Ham­burg Ball­room. Unfor­tu­nately embed­ding of the pho­tos has been dis­abled so you’ll have to visit Flickr to see them – but I’m still going to count the two frosty bev­er­ages towards our total (it’s not cheat­ing, honest).

Our esteemed One Mil­lion Beers con­trib­u­tor and God­dess of Metal As Fuck, Bioda­gar, con­tributed the next two pho­tos to the flickr pool. She explains about the image on the left:

I’d just come from a day in Cor­po­rate Land, and the shirt I was made to put over my dress because the dress just ain’t metal.”

You’re plenty metal enough for us hun!

The image of the right fea­tures Bioda­gar with Trevor Str­nad of The Black Dahlia Mur­der at their recent Ade­laide show. I’m not sure what’s going on, but there’s beer, met­al­heads and horns being thrown, so I’m sure it’s all above board.

Count two more brews towards the total. Count­ing the three beers from last week’s “Contributor’s Edi­tion” photo post, that means we can add six more beers to our run­ning total, bring­ing it to 188.

So until next time, keep sub­mit­ting those pho­tos, keep drink­ing up and most impor­tantly, stay metal \m/

This time around we have con­tri­bu­tions from our three site con­trib­u­tors. First of all, the mighty Mad­Man recently attended the Down­load Fes­ti­val at Don­ing­ton Park, UK. To make all the rest of us insanely jeal­ous, he sent through this photo of him­self enjoy­ing a bev­er­age which I’m led to believe is Dan­ish brew Tuborg:

While he was off check­ing out bands like Megadeth, Motor­head and Lamb of God, myself and the lovely Bioda­gar were enjoy­ing a week­end in my home­town of Perth, West­ern Aus­tralia. Among other things, we vis­ited the grave of hard rock leg­end Bon Scott in Fre­man­tle and drank a beer in hon­our of all things AC/DC, and of course had a photo taken to com­mem­o­rate the occasion:

Beers with Bon

That’s me (Goat­lady) on the left, and Bioda­gar on the right. We’re drink­ing VB Raw, a new take on an Aus­tralian clas­sic and not a bad drop.

What amaz­ingly metal things have you been up to? Send us the evidence!

Boys, beer and metal!

This time around, the sub­mis­sions are all boys! Ladies, where are you?

First up, Illi­nois Bob sends in this photo, explain­ing “Bob, Matt, and Jeff tip one back for Metal, while play­ing some” — that’s what we like to see, guys!

Next up we have two sub­mis­sions from Aussie met­al­head Gus (@Biomech_) — writ­ing some riffs and chug­ging back a beer (or three) — on ya mate!

And finally, Eddie Jacob­sen shares these pics, first back­stage at Vox­hall, Den­mark where his band SIC per­formed with Hate­sphere in 2009, and then show­ing us how they like to party! Thanks Eddie, that’s what we like too!

My lit­tle eye spies 30 beery bev­er­ages in this lot… and although math is not my strong point, I’m pretty sure that means our tally is now at 182 beers, or 0.182% of the way to one mil­lion beers. Or, in the esteemed words of the lovely Bioda­gar, we’re approx­i­mately one “poof­teenth” towards the total! But don’t be dis­cour­aged, there’s a lot of beer in this world, a lot of metal, and we’re patient peo­ple. Drink up!

The world’s most metal beer?

Metal fes­ti­vals tend to have at least one beer spon­sor but more often than not, it’s some kind of piss weak lager that you drink all day with­out feel­ing the effects. Let’s be hon­est; there’s noth­ing par­tic­u­larly metal about drink­ing a can of Fos­ters. How­ever, Britain’s Wells Brew­ery might have cre­ated the world’s most metal beer:

The awe­some sil­ver and jet black bot­tle may make it look like a Dimmu Borgir-issue butt-plug, but if you look closely…

From Satan’s very own stock!

This is the world’s most metal beer — any challengers?

The next two sub­mis­sions came from Hubert, with­out any infor­ma­tion about where they were taken, but those are some good Pol­ish beers that Hubert and his mates are drinking:

And finally for this week, Juan Briones from San­ti­ago, Chile sends us a pic­ture of him rais­ing a beer to metal on his drummer’s birthday:

Horns up! I count 63 beers in this set. Added to last week’s 89, that gives us a grand total of 152 beers thus far, which puts us at 0.152% of the way to our goal of one mil­lion beers. Bet­ter keep on drink­ing folks, and keep send­ing in those awe­some submissions.

Right, all this post­ing is mak­ing me thirsty! Off to crank up some metal and crack open a nice cold Phoenix!

Our very first submissions!

One week after the ini­tial con­cept for One Mil­lion Beers for Metal was drunk­enly con­ceived, here’s our first round of sub­mis­sions. These are from our Flickr group and fea­ture some Euro­pean metal fes­ti­vals and founder Biodagar’s week­end aftermath.

There were also three sub­mis­sions from the site — Troy from Ade­laide giv­ing Simey some metal brother love while Ree throws the horns at Troy’s birth­day bash in 2009; Dill The Devil, music edi­tor at OneMetal.com, about to con­sume a can of Strong­bow in the name of metal at the Down­load 2008 music fes­ti­val at Cas­tle Don­ing­ton; and @Biomech and the crew: @clone6, @bullie666, @darcyvargas — drink­ing up before the Mastodon gig.

I’ve care­fully counted and I believe that there are 89 beers in these pho­tographs (41 sin­gle beers, plus two car­tons being trans­ported). So we are now offi­cially 0.0089% of the way to our goal.

Thanks every­one — horns up guys! Can’t wait to see even more next week! Drink up!
