Metal Stars Put Through The Gender-Swap Filter Is Making Us Question Our Feelings on Everything

Members of Slipknot, Metallica, Pantera, Halestorm, Lacuna Coil and more put through the Snapchat gender swap filter.

As RuPaul's Drag Race season 9 winner Sasha Velour famously said, "Gender is a construct, tear it apart." And, that's exactly what Snapchat did this week, introducing gender swapping photo filters in its app. We've noticed these filters don't just work on living humans. You can point the filter at a screen and it will gender swap any person's face it recognizes.

Naturally, this lead us to wonder what some famous rock and metal musicians would look like in some gender swapped roles. Some of these photos make us uncomfortable for all the right (wrong?) reasons. Ultimately, it's the weekend and we thought this was just some fun fodder.
