SUFFOCATION’S FRANK MULLEN = KARAOKE CHAMP

When people ask why I believe in God* I say, “Well, look at Frank Mullen. If that dude wasn’t born to front a metal band, no one was. Living proof that God takes care of his children!” Suffocation are great and all, but at least half the reason I go see them live when they play New York City is for Frank Mullen’s between-song banter. Mullen is second to NO ONE when it comes to hilarious on-stage rants, made all the funnier by his extreme Lawn Guyland tough-guy accent.

Late night revelers on the 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise last week got to witness Mullen deliver the ultimate between song-banter one night in the form of a [presumably very drunken] karaoke rendition of “New York, New York.” Come for the vocals, stay for the spills (x2) and the angry, drunken trash talk (there’s uterus punching involved). Make sure you watch the whole thing.

*I don’t actually believe in God.
