Rational instincts and insight to spare

#3I'd wonder whether an LLM could make a coherent translation engine. It's like cognoscenti of the cthulic void rhyming slang.

#4> Normal English: “Commuting to work”
> Death Metal English: “TRANSPORTATION OF THE WAGEBOUND UNTO THE NEXUS OF PERPETUAL QUOTIDIAN ENSLAVEMENT”
I can see that one play out very well in a job interview after realising that the job isn't as remote as promised.

#5Nice to see “Chuck Schuldiner of Death” referenced. An insanely talented musician, gone way too soon.
Even if you don’t like death metal, give this band a listen if only for the skill alone.

#7Great read. Despite being into death metal for ages, I've never really paid attention to the lyrics. I tend to be overwhelmed by the intensity of the music itself, in a good way.
I did look up the lyrics to Necrophagist many years ago, and they seemed to be really goofy. There's only so many words about mutilated stillborn babies that I want to hear. Perhaps there's also a fair amount of tongue-in-cheek involved, writing these lyrics. Anyway, amazing band.

#8> Normal English: “You have to mow the lawn”
Death Metal English: “BRING DOWN THE SCYTHE OF GODS UPON THE NECKS OF THE GREEN-RIBBED LEGIONS AND SWEEP AWAY THEIR WRETCHED BODIES; THOU ART IMPLORED BY ME”

#9I'd wonder whether an LLM could make a coherent translation engine. It's like cognoscenti of the cthulic void rhyming slang.
I gave chatGPT4 the "common traits of Death Metal English" and then asked it to translate "Commuting to work" into death metal English. The response:
In the parlance of Death Metal English, "Commuting to work" might be translated as "Transversing the Dreaded Pathway to the Monolith of Enslavement."
That's pretty metal...

#10I always enjoyed Bolt Thrower's brand of Death Metal English - they had a kind of brutal minimalism to their lyrics.
"Spent Rounds, The Coffin Nails, On Your Empires Fall"
