Booze Slayer Cabernet vs Motorhead Shiraz
Posted by Kelly O on Tue, Apr 10, 2012 at 2:56 PM
The Motörhead edition is already stirring up controversy in Iceland:
AVTR, Iceland’s alcohol retail monopoly, is refusing to distribute Motörhead Shiraz brand wine. The retailer dislikes that the name “Motörhead” is a nod to amphetamine abuse and that the band writes songs about war, unsafe sex, and drugs but their main reason for banning the wine was that the “branding does inevitably promote an unhealthy lifestyle.”—Loudwire.com
Jeez, Swedes. I also thought both bands were more like a big glass of whiskey.

Elbow have a beer "Build a Rocket Buys", and the proceeds go to Oxfam East Africa. Plus, Grounds for Divorce is beautiful.
