Summary: Soichi Negishi is a shy young musician who dreams of a career in pop. Dreams don't pay the bills, so he's ended up as the lead singer and guitarist of a blackened death metal band, "Detroit Metal City."

My review: I don't really remember how I stumbled upon this master piece but I remember laughing till I had my tears come out. Maybe I was looking for some comedy other than Gintama to lift up my mood, or I saw it on the top comedy anime list on some blog - it doesn't matter. What matters is that Detroit Metal City is a complete gem in its genre/ The is also a pretty good movie addaptation that is worth watching.
