DEE SNYDER WANTS TO RECLAIM THE METAL HORNS


Oh, Dee Snyder.

Good luck with this. You're probably going to need it.

From the Take Back The Horns mission statement -- Calling all true headbangers! Join the fight! It’s time to take back that which is rightfully ours and return “the Metal Horns” to their one true home and former metal glory!

I first became conscious of the misuse of the “Metal Horns” when I read a article a few years ago in the brilliant, sarcastic, fictitious, weekly newspaper “The Onion”. It was entitled “Metal Council Convenes To Discuss 'Metal Hand Sign' Abuse” and it was a hysterical send up on how it seemed everyone was “throwing the Metal Horns” and for all the wrong reasons. I remember laughing and thinking to myself, “Yeah, there really are a lot of people using the horns these days.” But that was the end of it.
