There is no doubt that band tattoos are the ultimate sign of appreciation and loyalty for your favorite artists, it's like a band T-shirt you can't get off. I also have no doubt that metal heads are some of the most passionate group of music enthusiasts out there, so it came as no surprise that I could find thousands of band tats out there ranging from a tiny mark to a full sleeve. The only problem with this awesome combination is tattoo artists in the world are much like the bands themselves, some are good, some are simply amazing, and others… well here is a list of some of the others guys.

Some of these tattoos are clearly recent however, and I indeed found most of them on band forums posted by the owner of these fine works of art. Don't get me wrong, I think even crappy tattoos are awesome sometimes, because they usually begin with a hilarious crazy story. Liquor and drugs FTW!
