Shadows Fall Frontman says, "I Am A Vegetarian" November 1, 2007

Posted by Nicole | Permalink | Comments ( 6 ) | TrackBack

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Shadows Fall frontman, Brian Fair, is my absolute favorite dreadlock wielding, vegetarian, main man of metal. One might erroneously think it's the hair that wins me over, but oh no, kiddies, oh no. It's statements like this from Brian that make me smile: "I became a vegetarian many years ago after listening to The Smiths' 'Meat Is Murder.' It opened my eyes to the painful lives of animals raised for food and I knew I wanted no part of that." See, now doesn't that make you smile so big your freakin' face hurts?!

Our dear friend, Brian, was more than eager to participate in our series of vegetarian ads and his is so special you can find it gracing the pages of December's issue of Decibel magazine, which hits stands today. Be sure to go out and pick up a copy and also be sure to stay tuned to peta2.com. In the next couple of weeks, we'll be giving away an autographed copy of a certain video game that will keep your fingers plucking and your head banging. Interests peaked? Well, like I said, be sure to check back to peta2.com every day to see just what the hell I'm talking about.

Cheers, m'dears.

Shadows Fall is amongst the best of the best of the best bands ever, and it is so great that Brian is proud to be a vegetarian =)

Shadows Fall is amazing. I didn't know Brian Fair was a vegetarian. That is awesome! I saw them live a few years back when they were with Slipknot on the Sub. Verses Tour, they're better live, IMO, but then again most bands are.

And y'know, of course is hair totally pwns my hair by like a million. That's okay, though.

This is so amazing, I saw Shadows Falls like 2 weeks ago and they were pretty amazing.

Wonder what that would be.... Maybe Guitar Hero 3?

I think it's awesome that the stars are doing it too because that may help get the average people to go vege too. Not to mention that Shadows Fall is one of the greatest bands ever. Go Brian!!!!!!!!

I met this guy the other day when i was at work. He lives in a condo complex taking care of his grandmother and i went inside to fix his electrical. Very nice guy i was very impressed with him in the few times I talked with him.

Shadows Fall is one of my favorite bands, and to find out that one of its members was vegetarian made me ecstatic. I'm liking that even the metalheads can be vegetarian and brutal at the same time. People like the Amott brothers and Angela Gossow of Arch Enemy (melodic death metal), Rob Zombie, and even members of Lamb of God (thrash metal) are in some way shape or form vegetarian. And remember kids, being brutal DOES NOT mean towards animals!!!! \m/
