Death Metal
19-year-old Italian heavy metal singer Cristina Balzano has been arrested for stabbing the guitarist in her band Soul Cry after he fluffed a guitar riff.
Balzano allegedly stabbed the 16-year-old guitarist for playing the wrong notes during a rehearsal session after accusing him of "sounding evil".
Balzano has now been charged by Genovese police for attempted murder.
The incident is not the first altercation to affect the heavy metal scene.
Founder of Norwegian black metal outfit Burzum, Varg Vikernes is currently in jail in for the murder of Øystein Aarseth, guitarist for rival metal band Mayhem. Although his motive was unclear, the murder is though to have been "a power struggle between rival leaders of the Satanic circle".
British rockers Iron Maiden were famously pelted with eggs by Sharon Osbourne and her cohorts during a gig in the US after lead singer Bruce Dickinson "disrespected Ozzy".

Do you want a disclaimer included with every story you read to point out that the majority of people are actually fine? This story doesn't imply that any metal fans are violent or Satan worshippers! You're imagining that it does!
You want everything to read like this?
"Michael Donovan was today found guilty of kidnapping Shannon Matthews, but please remember that the majority of men aren't kidnappers."
"Vinnie Jones today punched a man in the head, but at the same time, 5,000 ex-footballers DIDN'T punch men in the head."
"Amy Winehouse took loads of drugs and attacked a photographer today, but Duffy, Dido, Katie Melua and Kylie Minogue didn't because they aren't the same as Amy Winehouse."
