A 62-year-old monk from Milan releases second heavy metal album



I know I know but it's TRUE!! Isn't this GREAT?? Just goes to show you that anyone from anywhere can make any kind of music. The world is a vast wonderland of unexplored miracles, and this is one of them.

This monk, Cesare Bonizzi, saw Metallica 15 years ago and it changed his life. He decided to become a heavy metal singer, and to inspire people to live life to the fullest through his music. I believe he's correct. I heard Joe Strummer say the same thing once ~ that rock & roll has an unspoken message ~ that's it's fun to be alive.

Find the full story and see Cesare singing with his band here.
