Note that, except [[Heavy Meta]], all these themes have violence, death and [[World of Ham|hamminess]] in common. Also, metal lyrics about any of these themes are not necessarily Mad Lib Metal Lyrics - this trope is about ''generic'' and ''meaningless'' metal lyrics.
The popularity of different themes varies across metal subgenres: the "traditional" metal of the [[The Seventies|late seventies]] and [[The Eighties|early eighties]] mostly uses [[Heavy Meta]]. [[Thrash Metal]] loves modern warfare
This trope is about lyrics, but the same pattern often shows up in band, album and song names.

* "Black Metal" (the [[Black Metal|genre]]'s [[Trope Namer]]) by [[Venom (band)|Venom]].
