News that Miley Cyrus is making a Metallica covers album sent Metal Twitter into a predictable conniption fit, even if there were more people than usual pointing out that, actually, she’ll do a brilliant job of it.

It turns out that she’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to unlikely celebs getting their rock on. Former Baywatch star turned Berlin Wall dismantler David Hasselhoff is the latest unlikely figure to rip open his T-shirt, bare his chest and yell “I AM METAL!” at the sky.

It turns out The Hoff has been secretly recording a song, Through The Night, with Austrian metal duo Cuestack. And these unlikely bedfellows have launched a Kickstarter campaign “to turn their retro Sci-Fi/Cyberpunk vision into reality”. Which means they want to make a video, basically.

The world needs a hero right now. And David Hasselhoff singing a metal song could be just that hero.
