MATCHES 17 & 18: ZAKK WYLDE VS. JOHANN HEGG + NEIL FALLON VS. MARK MORTON
Yesterday’s match-ups demonstrate that the competition is getting harder — while Bjorn Gelotte went down in flames to Lamb of God’s Chris Adler and Every Time I Die’s Andy Williams crushed Baroness’ John Baizley into yellow and green dust, Anthrax’s Scott Ian and Sanford Parker only won their respective matches, against Thy Will Be Done’s J. Costa and System of a Down’s Shavo Odadjian, by very narrow margins. SHIT IS BEGINNING TO GET REAL!
And it’s about to get realer — because now, ROUND 2 BEGINS!!! No more easy choices, kiddies. This is gonna be a bloodthirsty beard battle to the boneyard.
Vote after the jump! The polls close tomorrow, July 14, at 5 pm EST (the winners won’t be announced ’til Monday, though). May the burliest beard win!!!
ZAKK WYLDE VS. JOHANN HEGG
It would not be that hard to envision Zakk Wylde as a viking or Johann Hegg as a biker dude from New Jersey. Does that make this battle of nurture versus nature? And, if so, which beard is superior?!?!
NEIL FALLON VS. MARK MORTON
These two visage vines may be evenly matched in body, weight, and reach — we suspect that this match may come down to fandom over facial true hair fidelity. Make your choice…
