Last night’s season six premiere, which boasted the Metallica-referencing title “The Unforgiven,” naturally had no shortage of debauched moments. Of course, it helped that it started with at New York’s famed and now-defunct CBGB club, which the producers faithfully recreated, and the original version of a song Guns N’ Roses covered: Johnny Thunders’ 1978 bum trip “You Can’t Put Your Arms Around a Memory.” Below, we’ve collected together some of the funniest and most metal moments from “The Unforgiven,” many of which you’ll enjoy if you love spoilers.

Hank Moody’s Total Meltdown

After waking up from a drug-induced coma, after his ex-girlfriend slipped some antidepressants into Moody’s wine, he realized what a total fuckup he became and then got even more fucked up. Highlights—or in this case lowlights—included Moody going to the wrong house and accidentally climbing into a toddler’s bed, his pissing into a whiskey bottle, rather than going to one of the “three-point-five baths” in his agent/best friend Charlie Runkle’s house, and then drinking said piss-key to the stinger of “Deeeelicious.” He ruins a wedding proposal, gets called a “dick in the mud,” walks around with a bloody tissue hanging from his nose, and even sort of title-checks Slipknot when he explains the reason he dropped out of college as, “I’m a fucking disasterpiece.” And then there’s a question he asks Runkle early on, “Have you ever had a throbbing asshole, Charlie?”

The Introduction of Rock Star Atticus Fetch

“It was an honor and a privilege to hold your penis for as long as I did,” said a flight attendant/masseuse/handjob giver to this season’s rock-star foil to Moody, the guylinered and long blonde haired Atticus Fetch (Australian comedian Tim Minchin). Right from the start, the Fetch character is an over-the-top Golden God in the vein of ’80s Ozzy or Vince Neil or, in the ’70s, every Led Zeppelin member. The man has a TV broadcasting his own private satellite feed of scenes from the Sudan on his plane: “I can write a song about it.” He snorts coke off a mirror and claims Moody’s God Hates Us All “was like God came down from heaven and laid his massive, veiny ballsack on my face.” Which of course made him want to make a rock opera out of it—or rather the watered-down Hollywood version of God Hates Us All: Crazy Little Thing Called Love. But since Moody’s assessment of Fetch is, “You’re smug, you’re pompous, there’s no cock in your rock anymore,” there’s likely plenty of mayhem ahead in the season.

Charlie Runkle’s Incredible Hulk Stripper Show

Near the end of Moody’s friends ill-executed “intervention,” Runkle loses it and lets loose a scream dastardly scream. That he accompanies it by ripping off his sweater and then daintily unbuttoning his shirt (see gif) to reveal where he took a bullet for Moody in the last season made it the funniest moment of the episode. All in all, The Unforgiven was a great start, but let’s hope there’s enough Runkle rage to last the full sixth season.

“Who wouldn’t jump at a chance to design a show that gets left in there and the people come to the show,” drummer Tommy Lee tells Revolver. “It doesn’t have to move. So production-wise, it’s gonna get pretty crazy.”

While the current plan is for the band to set-up-shop at the Joint from February 3 through to February 19, performing four shows a week, frontman and Vegas resident Vince Neil claimed that that period could be extended.

“Hopefully, you know, if it’s successful and it works out for everybody, why not?” he says. “You’re basically on tour but you’re not really touring, which is great because that’s the great thing about Vegas, because people from all over the world are here for a few days and then they move on and then new people are always coming in. So, you’re basically having the world come to you.”

For a band that has always been about a lot more than just the music, Lee says that a proper Vegas show has been something that’s been on their radar for a many years.

“We’ve gone to a lot of the big-Vegas-production shows and we all have talked about it many times, going ‘God, could you imagine if we could only get our hands on this kind of an opportunity, what we could do with it?’” he recalls. “So, I mean, this has been something we’ve all talked about for a long time. This is gonna be wild.”

As for specific details about the show itself, while nothing has yet been finalized, the band claimed that it would be unlike any other concert experience. “We really want the audience to be in the show, not watching the show,” Lee explains. “It’s gonna be something really extraordinary that’s never really been done. That’s the whole point and purpose for us to even do this is to put together something that is just an insane experience. When people walk out they’re like ‘Dude, I can’t even believe what just fucking happened in there.’”

While other entertainers are likely to feature, one thing sure to become a regular feature of Mötley Crüe’s Vegas residency is, of course, “Girls, Girls, Girls.”

“It sure would be fun to really do it Vegas style and have there be, you know, nudity or almost nude, Lee commented. “I mean it is Vegas, right. Come on, that’s why we signed up for this shit.” He laughs.

 REVOLVER Magazine's first-ever tattoo issue is on newsstands now, featuring a striking cover image of Slayer’s Kerry King and his legendary Paul Booth-inked head tattoo. King is pictured with blood dripping from his head onto his shoulders, an homage to Slayer’s “Raining Blood.”  The March/April 2010 issue, which is also available for purchase at Revolver's online store, features “The History Of Tattoos In Hard Rock,” an in-depth feature by writer Christopher R.

The Revolver tattoo issue–which will only be available on newsstands and in stores from March 2 to May 10–includes a free temporary tattoo featuring an exclusive design by Booth (pictured below).

"I guess you could look at it two ways: You could make fun of me for making a temporary tattoo—or you could think about the fact that I’m getting to your children. And you know, I’m all about fucking up the heads of little children," says Booth. Of the design, he explains, "I wanted to do something that related to Kerry’s head and Slayer, and this design on the temporary tattoo was actually Design 2 of two set designs I gave Slayer for their stage show. We never used this one but I’ve been staring at it for years and finally this opportunity came up to do something cool with it."

Booth continues, speaking of Revolver's tattoo issue in general: "Not only am I thrilled that Revolver is supporting the tattoo industry, but they really dialed it in. The information is solid, they did their research; it’s not like paparazzi bullshit where it’s all bubblegum. It’s a good read. I’ve been in the business for 21 years, and Revolver is the one magazine I’ve dealt with where I don’t feel like I have to read the shit before it’s printed."

REVOLVER Editor In Chief Brandon Geist gives his perspective on the magazine’s first tattoo issue:

“Tattoos may be more mainstream than ever, but they still stand as symbols of personal independence and rebellion; as such, they are a major part of the hard-rock and metal lifestyle. Revolver’s regular ‘Inkspot’ column, in which we talk to band members about their tattoos, has always been one of our most popular sections, and I really wanted to expand that into an in-depth feature. As I thought about how to do this, I realized that I didn’t really know when or how tattoos and hard rock have become so intertwined, and I felt like there was a great story to tell there. We’re honored to have artists like Paul Booth, Kat Von D, Thomas Hooper, Dan Smith, and Lyle Tuttle, as well as rockers from Kerry King to Chester Bennington, help us tell that story. And we’re totally stoked that Booth agreed to design an exclusive temporary tattoo for us to include in the magazine. People wait as long as two-and-a-half years to get inked by him, so picking up this issue is definitively the quickest and cheapest way to finally get a Booth on your skin.”
