Death metal teacher sacked



School governors have sacked a philosophy teacher from his job after discovering his secret life - as a blood smeared death metal rock singer.

By day shaven-headed Thomas Gurrath, 29, discussed ethics with his 14-year-old pupils at his high school in Stuttgart.

But by night he calls himself The Bloodbeast and writhes around on stage covered in animal blood with topless backing singers and his band Debauchery.

The band's biggest hits include 'Kill Maim Burn' and 'Torture Pit'.

"It was very worrying to listen to his music and then realise he was teaching our children," said one parent.

Shocked officials ordered Gurrath to quit saying his performances were a form of mental instability that made him unsafe to be around children.

They ordered him to choose between teaching and his music - saying he could no longer teach anywhere in Baden-Wuerttemberg state unless he gave up the band.

But Gurrath said he was too addicted to death metal music to quit and agreed to give up his career as a teacher instead.

I suppose the kids will be much better with one of those smartly dressed men with a well clipped moustaches and shiny jackboots...

His lyrics are kind of forthright I suppose

Insane Human Butchery

Victims
Like cattle
Crowded together
Dismembered
And butchered
In their thousands
Ripped apart
With a knife
And with the scissors
On the meat hook
Drenched in fuel
I see them burning
Hack, slash, kill, burn
Hack, slash, kill, burn
Hack, slash, kill, burn
Hack, slash, kill, burn
Stab to death
Scatter bowels
Rid apart
With a knife
With the saw
With axes
Much blood spilled
Head off
Blood drips on the ground
Human cadavers
Mutilated, dissected
Disemboweled bodies, corpses
Children
Stabbed in the womb
Ripped, slash open, hacked, burned
Perverse, fucking
Butchery

Well, at least his lyrics are better than Hagar's.

Well, at least his lyrics are better than Hagar's.

Not by much, as they both share a severe lack of context. "Insane Human Butchery" describes just that, but fails to mention where, when and how this is taking place. In a manner of speaking, that is just as awful as Hagar's bleeting on and on about the "wonder" of love, while never getting around to mentioning why it is supposedly so important in the first place.

And of course the uptight people who don't know any better look at lyrics like these and think that it's the singer's belief that people should be dismembered. It's just a character and it's just art. Little do they know if they played the song backwards they say let's pick flowers and eat fresh little candies and the Springtime.
