i am so MAD that metalstorm isn’t a real movie! 😭💔 what do you MEEEEAN i had to watch that trailer and i can’t even see how aliena and space cowboy get their happy ending in a dune meets star wars space action romance?!?!?! FUCK my stupid baka life 😭😭😭
I live in the United States, and the sun is dying. There’s these dots eating it, the sun, and these dots are alien life forms. It would be pretty cool if it wasn’t causing a mass extinction event.
They’re trying to fix it, though. They- all the governments of the world and their accompanying scientists.
it’s weird how quickly mass extinction events can be normalized in the good ol’ U S of fuckin’ A. The world still spins, the sun still shines (for now), coffee still costs eight dollars a pop.
The sun is being eaten by alien life, and I’m sitting in a movie theater. Metalstorm. New movie. Big cinema release because of some drama a few months back with the lead actor.
Metalstorm is about this guy, Space Cowboy, (typical hot lead, twangy Wild Wild West accent, the original actor died. I think. I don’t really follow celebrity stuff but it made the theater release suuuper controversial.) and this girl, Aliana. Cue Romeo and Juliet style love story with explosions and guns and stuff.
it’s really weird, watching a movie with the main guy falling in love with an alien, especially when real life aliens are trying to kill us. It’s not personal, some astrobiologist assures us every day, but it sorta feels personal.
the thing about Metalstorm though, is that it’s a cowboy movie. Cowboys! Like when vigilante superheroes got super popular during the world wars. Cowboys, like, manifest destiny type shit. Explore the world (ignore the fine print) and save/conquer… yadda yadda. Space Cowboy does all that.
The United States announced their participant in the big save-the-universe project. Our very own space cowboy, Martin DuBois. Hail Mary, yeehaw, maybe don’t fall in love with an alien please and thank you.
I don’t really know what the director was thinking when she made the movie. It seems like a dig, but it could very well be a cute romcom action playing with beloved tropes. Still. I pass posters of the space cowboys every day and wonder if there’s life out there like Aliana.

Am I the only one that actually wants to see MetalStorm?
I did not know I needed a dune x madmax x great stunts crossover before I watched the Fall Guy.

The Fall Guy aka MetalStorm "It's high noon at the edge of the universe."
On this day, May 3, in Type O Negative history:
Type O Negative (formerly Repulsion) play their first show under that name at The Last Thrash Bash at L'Amour with Cro-Mags, Leeway, White Zombie, Biohazard, Non-Fiction, Machine, and Metalstorm in Brooklyn, NY (1991)
"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked,..."- Howl by Allen Ginsberg
Following the 1989 break-up of Carnivore, and, after Unsuccessfully Succeeding At The Denouement To Unsuccessfully Coping With The Natural Beauty Of Infidelity, Peter explores forming a Munsters-themed hot skiffle band.
Finding no takers, his lengthy boredom is broken by opportunity knocking, literally- his friend Sal comes over to his house and knocks on his door, asking Peter if he wants to form a new band. Sal knows a guitarist (Kenny) and Peter knows a way to lure his friend Josh into playing keyboards for the band, soon to be called Repulsion. By January of 1990, these Creatures from the Gowanus Canal have a 6-song cassette tape demo called None More Negative. Keeping with recording industry "best practices", the lead song is the 12 minute, 39 second earworm "Unsuccessfully Coping with the Natural Beauty of Infidelity".
A radio hit in the making, this song easily lands the band its first gig at L'Amour 2 months later. But, like the delicate cherry tree blossom, L'Amour can be a fleeting thing- almost a year later, L'Amour, The Rock Capitol of Brooklyn, announces that it is closing.
And so, our peripatetic protagonists debut their new moniker, Type O Negative, as they play The Last Thrash Bash on what was presumed to be the second-to-the-last show ever at Brooklyn's legendary L'Amour (L'Amour resumes shows 6 months later but does actually close for good in 2004).
This video is the best quality version of Type O Negative's first show that I have found, to date. Type O Negative are the first band here and their set runs to 26:25, when they are followed by Biohazard. Please enjoy the cheesy 90s-era video effects, Sal's oscillating fan (some drummers were known to cart around a box fan with them back in the day), and a slice of the musical tomato pie that spawned several bands who are still performing today.

Type O Negative play the Texas Sky Festival Park with Ozzy Osbourne and Sepultura in Corpus Christi, TX (1996)
16 years ago today I uploaded the first video I ever made. And the original upload is still there! That it was quoted on the rerelease box of MetalStorm is crazy and definitely a career highlight.
And I can’t believe people still watch my stuff!! I’m so lucky, I love you all!!
Though the original upload it up, if you really want to watch, there’s a higher quality version here, https://youtu.be/RxcmFObr6EE?si=b1q9-Isl6cjB01jc&t=173
