Overenthusiastic headbanging may result in mild brain damage.

According to a study from the University of South Wales, the average tempo of a heavy metal song is 146 beats per minute. At that rate, researchers found a risk of concussion or mild traumatic brain injury if the head is thrust back and forth at more than a 75 degree range.

Songs like Mötley Crüe's "Kick Start My Heart," which checks in at 180 bpm, are especially dangerous, and the study's authors go so far as advising certain music come with "a proper health warning, as for smoking."

Of course, these findings support an earlier groundbreaking thesis that concluded, "Bang your head, mental health will drive you mad."

QRS music, the last producer of paper player piano rolls, has ceased production after 108 years. Not since 1936, when Mayor Fiorello La Guardia banned Organ Grinders from the streets of New York, has the mechanical music community suffered such a blow. Player piano owners interested in new tunes will now have to convert their pianos with lame digital adapters.

Gloves are always something of a dilemma for guys. Do you go for the classic woolly option, at the risk of looking like a kid? Do you sacrifice comfort for fashion? Or do you go in the other direction and get snug in big, ugly ski mitts?

We say opt for the man's man route by compromising with these classic leather driving gloves from Brit label French Connection. Appealingly retro, warm, and practical, they have that all-important dash of sophistication needed to brave icy winds and gentlemanly snowball duels. ($29.99 from FrenchConnection.com)

There may come a point when you're going to want to stop serving your guests liquor in the "What Happens in Vegas" shot glasses. Even when you're sipping alone, enjoying a Scotch in your favorite plastic tumbler is a challenge.

That's why it might be time to pick up a set of six tasting glasses for such occasions from Kegworks. You can pour yourself a 2 oz. drink in one of these beauties, and the rounded bottom will provide a more even aroma.

A steal for $20, the glasses sit in a custom wooden rack so you can easily store them on your decidedly less classy PBR nights. [via Uncrate.]

Straight from the floor of this year's Macworld Expo Conference, Macworld.com is reporting that iTunes will go DRM-free in March. Maybe you don't even know what "DRM-free" means, but if you've ever tried to burn an MP3-CD or play your iTunes purchased songs in any other software besides iTunes we're sure you'll be happy it's going away.

Asylum recently caught up with Mike Daly, author of "Time Flies When You're in a Coma: The Wisdom of the Metal Gods," to gain his insight on why the lyrical content of '80s heavy metal can guide and inspire us all.

What do you tell someone who writes off metal lyrics as the mad rantings of fully-grown juveniles clad in spandex? Let's look at the facts: They've traveled the world; they've made millions; they've communicated their messages to millions of fans; they've slept with some of the most beautiful woman in the world ... Needless to say they're doing something right, and the first rule of success is to model after someone who's already successful. Besides who are you gonna trust: Oprah or thousands of satisfied women?

What are some critical moments in a man's life when it's most important to turn to metal lyrics for guidance? Any situation dealing with sex, drugs, alcohol and the underworld.

Can metal wisdom be of help during less crucial moments -- like when a guy is brushing his teeth or trying to find a parking space? Yes, if he is also having sex, high and/or drunk, and communicating with Satan directly at the time.

Check out selected lyrics found in "Time Flies" in the gallery below, and learn more about power-chord accompanied profundity after the jump.

Seems like everybody is heading back to school, and that means test preparation will soon be ruining lives. Of course, there are always ways to get around studying.

Humans have been fantasizing about sex with robots since well before the most basic robotics existed. But now, in an age of lifelike non-animated sex dolls and robotic technology that can do just about anything, the dream is getting pretty close to being a reality. We've already debated whether having sex with a robot hooker would be considered infidelity, but let's pull back a little bit here: Is robot sex even a road humanity wants to travel?

Some might say sex robots are just the next class of sex toys, and people seem to have emerged from the age of the vibrator unscathed. But comparing a sex toy to a lifelike sex robot is kind of like comparing Jolt Cola to crystal meth.

After the jump, more ways the coming robot-sex revolution will change the lives of all of us.
