Remember when Slayer was cool? Me neither.

This story caught my attention recently: Angry Christians force Slayer album out of India. As you might have guessed from the headline, there were protests in India over the cover art on Slayer's new album "Christ Illusion". The cover, which can be seen at the above link (I'll spare you from putting it here) , shows a mutilated and armless Jesus waist-deep in blood and surrounded by severed heads.

The most surpising part of all this: the boys of Slayer are still alive and making awful music. Congrats to them for making anyone care about anything they do for the first time since 1994.

Meanwhile, on the polar opposite end of the universe, someone has created a work of pure genius: The Ultimate Collectible.



Everyone I know is getting one of these bad boys for Christmas.
