Solo metal artist Sad Satan got married a few weeks ago and, according to and Instagram post, knew how hard it would be hard to find the words to salute his bride at their wedding reception. So, he fell back on what he knew best and wrote a killer metal ballad for her instead, entitled Until We Rot.

Performing it at the reception, complete with pyro and smoke, his bride Francesca wiped away tears. Not because it was bad, but because it was sick as hell!
