Both humans and goblins should have demon leaders.

Elves could be glam/hair metal, and humans could be punk/rockabilly/goth/emo/crust.

Weapons: Guitars, drumsticks, basses, beer bottles, spiked bracelets, some of the castes would obviously have natural attacks or special skills (vomiting, headbutting, extra kicking skill etc).
You could even have different types of guitars... like an axe... hehehe

Back from hypersleep. I can create the basic template for the metalheads, unsure of the hairstyles and color though.

Anyway, I'm gonna start making some raws.

Heeheheh this is a pretty fun idea.

So, posers as kobolds? Perhaps give them babysnatching as well.

And agreed on folk metal, they need to be in this.

Babysnatching is complicated. For one, it makes the civilization able to siege you.

Any chance of Prog Rock getting a cameo?

Probably on the human entity.

Ideas:

- Thrash Metalheads should be tough and relatively common.
- Death Metalheads should be slightly weaker, but extremely common and have the ability to birth many children, not to mention the low age requirement for adulthood.
- Black Metalheads should be specialists. They can give out a cacophonic scream to their enemies, burning them to death.

If there are any suggestions, feel free to post, and I will make changes in my raws.

So, should there be Screamo Goblins with a similar attack?

As those three go that sounds pretty good. I would also add the OP's.
Also (if it can be done in the raws):
Death - getting used to tragedy
Black - hardened indiviual
Doom - doesn't really care about anything anymore

Death - I don't know how to do that, but I'll try to do that
Black - I assume I can do a few personality modifications and I can replicate something like that.
Doom - I think the easiest way to do that is to use [NO_EMOTION]. That way, they won't tantrum.

Anyway, I'm still writing a bit of the raws. I'll post later if I have some questions.

I'm volunteering my time and effort here on creating weapons/armor/clothes and, maybe, a few monsters.
We'd need more ideas for mod-specific creatures though.

Elves could also be something along the lines of Hair Metal, since they care more about their looks than the actual music.

If guns are considered sufficiently metal, I pledge to this cause my mod.

According to the first page, elves should preferrably be non metal genres, mainly because they are hippies.

Urrrghh. I'm gonna make a rockabilly human, and wipe out all the other races whilst clad in my inpenetrable *Reindeer Leather jacket* .
Or at least every race whose genre involves screamo.
