Cats. We Love ‘em! Cute, cuddly, intelligent and independent, they are part of the family for millions of us. However we all know about their reputation for dabbling in the darker side.
Since the Middle Ages cats have been associated with witchcraft and demons, kept by witches as familiars “those hellish imps that took the forms of animals to assist witches in their evil deeds”. Sounds pretty metal! Even today, some of these these stereotypes have survived. You've probably heard the one about black cats bringing bad luck, right?
Black Metal Cats is a Twitter account that celebrates the inherent doom that our feline friends possess. Bored Panda has compiled our favourite tweets from the account, perfectly pairing dark, black metal lyrics with brooding pictures of cats that hilariously capture the mood. Best viewed with slow, heavy metal music playing in the background.
Which one is your favourite? Let us know in the comments below!

That's part of the paw. Normally you just don't notice it because other cats paws are covered in fur.

I understand cats hate water and that your human just gave you a bath but don't you think you're making a big deal out of nothing? Cats are excellent swimmers. Well I'm confused.
Just wait humans, I'll show you you that you can't get away with this indignity!
I can't help but hear the mission impossible theme song come into my head when I see this picture.
Why are you walking away? To much of a coward to see the task thru to the end?
Come on now cat's eyes have always glowed in the dark just like dogs. Opps sorry shouldn't of done that comparison.
He will leave a trail of blood and weeping in his wake, and he will laugh.
This validates my point I commented earlier "cats are great swimmers" TA DA!!!
Yes, cats can swim when forced. Some breeds like water. This is Tex, a cat caught in Hurricane Harvey. He made it to a car roof, then no one knows what happened. They took his picture swimming, and huddling, but no one rescued him :(
Load More Replies...It's the cat version of "walking away from an explosion, and not looking back".
YOU? REALLY? Oh yeah you look really mean. I am shaking all over...LOL
Oh Hell, what'd I do? I'm just going to hurry and slink away before some human see me.
The calico in front has a collar; the others do not. She must be the leader! LOL
Yes let's bring out the "Birds" mentioned below so the cats can get a "bird's eye view"
This has to come from Cat Island off of Japan I think or maybe it was Indonesia. It's a real island that is just over running with cats. I remember when a hurricane had hit close by and they were taking donations to be able to feed the cats. All the food has to be sent on a farry boat to get to the island. This is true, look up CAT ISLAND. Anyway love the picture.
10 years ago, my parents sailed away in a beautiful pea green boat, but they ran into bad weather and ended up here in this frozen hell where they gave birth to me. Owleycat. Now I will have my revenge upon those who drove them out of society.
Love this picture. The look on his or her face is like what the HELL.
a I did was jump out side and look I am up to my neck in this white stuff

YIKES! (S)he is not happy with whatever shenanigans are going on and victory will be had - dear human, watch your back.
Kitty: "Filthy human animal, my bowl is 3/4 full -- tonight I drink your blood at midnight."
"How many times do I have to god damn tell you Cindy?!?! I sleep in on weekends!!!"
At first glance, he looks harmless...then, I looked closer at his EYES!! Insanity lurks within!
I just can't see them as metal cats lol They are too cute and cuddly ! I want to pick them up and kiss them!
Hahaha me too! This one just looks derby :D
Load More Replies...Thbbbbbb! What is that God awful taste. I thought humans would taste better.
At first glance, I thought the cat on the left had a butterfly on his face.
Finally it's my turn to torment the humans and you guys watch and learn.
Really beautiful cats. Hey Theo, which one looks juicier to you? They both look juicy to me, Silver.
What kind of cats ARE these? The one on the left looks like a White Walker.
