Dyslexic Muslims to worship Kurt Cobain as is written in the Kerrang

I'm not sure about the dyslexia jibe, but I really like the idea of 'The Kerrang' being seen as a holy book for metallers and think there's lots of potential for a full piece here. I don't think you even need to mention the Quran - by describing the teaching in the Kerrang as if it were the Quran the reader will make the links.
Don't know enough about heavy metal to help you much further, but there have to be plenty of parallels in terms of traditional dress (black jeans, black T-shirt, women respectfully covering themselves with tattoos, etc) and worship (headbanging, hand raised in salute, followers often having a feeling of being lifted up and carried aloft by the crowd, etc). I'm sure you can come up with something.

As the daughter of a dyslexic, and a sufferer of dyscalculia (numerical dyslexia), I loved this twist. Most dyslexics have a pretty good sense of humour about it, so would appreciate this idea.
