Let's be honest, how many times have you had a pair of headphones break on you? From the "One Leg Bandit" routine (AKA only one ear bud working and the other bud breaking in-and-out sound when you put the cable in a certain side of the bud) to the "Silver Plug of Death" (just like the "One Leg Bandit", but the plug that connects to the cassette Walkman/portable CD player/mp3 player/etc doing the in-and-out sound ordeal.), this is a tale that has been told since the dawn of time (say around the 1970's).
Today we take a look at another offering the Metal Gods delivered to the Legions, introducing Frogz Ear Pollution Plugz.
Now the question you are proposing, what makes these headphones Metal? Pretty simple. The pollution it claims to emit is radioactive, and aside of the plethora of Metal bands that sing about the subject with regularity, nuclear waste is pretty Metal considering what it does to people/animals/things/etc and how it looks.
They had these in black & blue, black & red, black & green, and while the aforementioned colors would have done the job of replacing my previous broken headphones (mind you, they survived my 2011 European Metal Festival Tour), I had to go with the mightiest of the might, the black & silver.
As for the sound, it is very clear, although you can't expect that fancy Dolby surround sound you get at theaters these days, but nonetheless it does get the job done.
The best part about these ear buds is that they are flashing the radioactive sign in it's simple but effective "warning sign" glory, letting the people in the bus/school halls/train/etc. know the poison injected into your ear is contagious to their health, unless they are Metal fans who can handle the toxic audio blast.
