As I was sipping from a glass of single malt scotch, my sister's birthday present to me, I put together a themed puzzle for the custom of giving something away on one's birthday..

I don't listen to as much metal as I once did, but every fall and winter I listen to more of it than the rest of the year.

As for bumps, metal-themed images or even your favorite metal song/video youtube links will be appreciated.Just...be sensible about what you post.

Since the hints are all showing up at different times, here is the one hint for Question 4 which many people seem to be struggling with:

Question 4

What was the focus of the Sabaton record "Heroes"?
The event, not necessarily the people.
Answer in full words.

Some formatting hints would help. I know the answers for this, I can't seem to figure out what you typed as answers:

What was the focus of the Sabaton record "Heroes"?
What setting do Bolt Thrower sing about? (edit: got it)

Now i'd gladly have a glass of Single Malt Scotch whisky to cheer with you for your birthday. (cheer is the right word for hitting the glass together, right? )

thanks for reminding me about this i had completely forgotten ^_^

I actually managed to get it with the new hint! I had even put in the answer already last time, among the hundreds i had already tried, but I wasnt writing it the way he wanted.

Good luck solving it :) It was a big event, youve probably heard of it before :)

Happy birthday! :)
I've been really getting into Testament lately, here's one of their songs from their latest album. Blisteringly fast yo

(in case anyone wants to comment on either the lyrical matter or name of the song, take this Wikipedia snippet into account:

"True American Hate" was written about the prevalence hatred, particularly anti-Americanism, in younger generations around the world, often perpetuated by their upbringing. "
Also, Testament are an American band :) )

Why just autumn and winter? You need your daily amount of metal every day every month every year! ;P

Anyway, happy birthday! And here's one of my favourites: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyqnauwmGz4

Since your puzzle mentioned the almighty Bolt Thrower I thought I might link my favourite song from them, and tell a very short story about something a friend did at one of their concerts
So, a friend went to one of their concerts, drunk as hell, and snuck backstage to drink and hang with them
