Other: Moorcock: The Bellyflops! (fwd)

[Sprawl]

Ungol...   ewwww.

I had the cd with Stormbringer on the cover.  Unremarkable scream-metal.
the back had the 8 pointed chaos arrows.  I doubt any of these guys can
read, so I would guess that the MM influence is that they saw the covers,
and it gave them scary dreams.

Ya can't follow the words, but they hint at death and hatred.   I think they
were
less inspired by MM's writing than by the will to capitalize on those
writings.
