There are cries for help, and there are over-the-top shrieks for help. A heavy metal singer belting out a thrash-core song to his cat named Bill Murray certainly qualifies as the latter.

After listening to this rendition of "Sweet Child of Mine" on a Polka music machine I'm certain that Axle Rose is doing summersaults in his grave over this. Now, I know he's not dead, but his career is, so that reference works and shit.

His ego is apparently contagious. Hide your families because soon our country will be overrun with grotesque hubris. As if it already isn't.

We all love bacon. We all love music. We all love music about bacon? Um...sure.

I’m already obsessed with the original, so this bootleg is huge. Do me a favor and don’t listen to it unless your turning the volume up, really made the difference. The first minute I thought that riff was annoying too, but it'll all make sense…
