The Periodic Table of Metal

Oh, THAT kind of metal. I have seen s number of references and didn’t get it as surely the actual periodic table is pretty much a periodic table of metal.

I can assure you that “simonlegend” is my alter-ego. I acquired this awesome piece of internet frippery from an acquaintance on Facebook. I do not own the rights… & etc.

The real periodic table is metals on the left, non-metals on the right and transition elements in between like some kind of chemical apartheid (which would itself be a good metal band-name…)

Not metal but starts with Led Zeppelin…, Steven Hyden’s seven part series, The Winners’ History of Rock and Roll. Highly recommended. (If Hyden’s name looks familiar to you, you may have come across his more narrowly focused but equally genial 10 part series, ‘Whatever happened to Alternative Nation?’ for the Onion’s AVClub back in 2010.)

Where can I get a high quality Poster of this?
