Credits go for Ilham, who started it here.

The game is simple: Create a haiku describing a metal album, then the others will try to guess.

For instance, I'm going to start with something simple, just so the game can begin smoothly:

Once it was ready
Suddenly not anymore
Maybe other time


Guess this, then the winner takes the turn (or passes forward if he wishes so)

Abuse of power
Strings come from many forces
Controlling the dead.


I want to say that sounds like Master Of Puppets, but that third line makes me wonder, because the song itself is about drug addicts.

You are correct though, since the haiku isn't about the song, but about the whole album. 'Controlling the dead' just refers to the album cover.

Yep yep. Probably gave it away with that second line

Oh no, the first and third line too

Ok, here's one I hope will be a little more complicated

Yin and yang combine
Radiant light in the woods
Tales from robes and gowns

I am the Magician and the Exorcist. I am the axle of the wheel, and the cube in the circle. “Come unto me” is a foolish word: for it is I that go.

I'll go with A Forest Of Stars - The Corpse Of Rebirth although I'm not sure.

Damn man, you're slick. But then again we share similar tastes
Yup, first line is the album cover, other two are the band itself.

Haha, thanks
I wouldn't say our tastes are that similar, but we're definitely often on the same page as far as black metal goes

Here's one, should be obvious if you know the album. I'm making easier ones now to make up for that phoenix one that no one will ever get.

Bright hypocrisy
Palindromes, semordnilaps
The golden ratio.
