Black metal and golf. It just makes sense, doesn't it?
This new ad from FedEx has hit viral status today in the metal blogosphere, so we couldn't resist sharing it with you and getting your thoughts.
The commercial depicts a metal band — presumably black metal — dealing with a manager who's none to happy about the group's hardcore love of golf, asking, "How am I supposed to sell you guys as the most dangerous band in the world when you're seen schlepping golf clubs through the airport?"
What do you think of the ad? Watch it below and let us know what you think in the comments.
