metallica

Sometimes I feel that Internet (in general) and tumblr (in specific) just rule my life, and I waste my daily hours scrolling down on the many silly memes. And then, I come across gems like these. A bloke by the name of Roadside Jesus (phonetically pronounced as Hae-soos’) prepared this awesome periodic table of rocking. This is sheer geeked up awesomeness of epic proportions. The image below is the best I could capture from the site.

Click on the picture to go to this awesome website. Each rock ‘element’ is clickable. The default intro header says -

Hello my friends. This is my periodic table of rockin’. I compiled it in 1987 when Guns n’ Roses released the “Appetite for Destruction”. Please click around my friends. – Jesus

There is also an audio commentary which starts with a crunchy guitar shredding by Jesus. The bloke sounds like a really stoner lazy guy, but man, he has the patience to compile this awesome piece of work. He also explains why Beatles is not on the list. Because Rock is more like a Saturday night thing, and Beatles is a “Sunday band”. LOL!

My favourites Metallica is an Alkali metal, which is absolutely spot on. Whereas Led Zep, Sabbath, Stones, Who, Steppenwolf, and Spinal Tap are Noble Gases

And for the best part, the pink elements are poor metals e.g. Bon Jovi, Europe and Def Leppard Enjoy the table.
