Berserk is an Old Norse word that comes from beserker:
...berserkers became frenzied in battle, howling like animals, foaming at the mouth, and biting the edges of their iron shields. Berserker is first recorded in English in the early 19th century, long after these wild warriors ceased to exist.
Well, they still make berserkers up there in the Old North. No wonder heavy metal is so popular up in the high northern latitudes. Like they say, changes in latitude, changes in attitude.
A band named Mayhem showed up with the lead singer wearing a pig's head on his head. No, not the plastic kind that Arkansas Razorback fans have - oh no. It was a real pig head, blood and all. If you want to see what he looked like, just click here. But, let me warn you, I didn't post the picture myself for a reason. Even I have some sensibilities!
