Video: Death Metal Fat Cat Plays Air Drums to "Whore to a Chainsaw" by Thy Art Is Murder
Even though it has been viewed more than 2 million times, we figure there still might be one or two people out there who still haven't seen this YouTube video.
It features an extremely easy-going, fairly chubby feline — dubbed "Death Metal Fat Cat" by its owner — who, with the help of said owner, plays air drums to "Whore to a Chainsaw" by Australian deathcore band Thy Art Is Murder.
This is just one of many videos featuring Death Metal Fat Cat, who even has his own Facebook page.
