#201 DJUNTS & FLAHNS - The SOUNDS of Metal - & OTHER MOUTH SHAPES

If you’re gonna describe a riff to somebody…”

There are a multitude of MOUTH SHAPES that exist all across the rock & metal landscape, many of which we’re pretty certain you’ve never heard of before in your life.

Sure, there’s the typical FLAHNS & DJUNTS. (And thanks to Pantera, there are even super djunts!).

But did you know about the muns, the buns, the duns, the luns, and the uns?

What about the waows and the baows? The dans and the dons?

The ban-nah-nahs, the dahn-nahs and the lahn-nahs?

We realize this is A LOT to process, but here’s a few “rules” to consider that might make comprehension of this lunacy a little easier:

  1. Sometimes if it’s too fast, regardless of how heavy it is, there’s just no time for djunts.
  2. Generally speaking, ALL clean guitar stuff (which includes anything played with a bow) is considered a flahn.

(The only exception being Slayer, as their clean riffs are strangely devoid of any flahninity.)

  1. Melodies (as a general rule) are also applicable to proper MOUTH SHAPE classification as they’re kinda riffs (but not really) and they’re also kinda solos (but not really).
  2. Beavis & Butt-Head are the original pioneers that first brought the heavy metal mouth shape movement to mainstream awareness back in the early 1990’s.

It’s time to grasp which kinds of holes we “don’t like talking about” and find out “why the girls don’t listen” even after our collective acknowledgement that all high quality “stripper lotion” used by “shooter girls and bottle girls” is the best because “it has glitter in it.” Get ready to “get up in there” and have some fun, remember the meaning of “NO means NO” and JOIN US for our in-depth, investigative report regarding DJUNTS & FLAHNS & OTHER MOUTH SHAPES.
