Welcome, my brothers in metal!
It seems you like riddles. Well, I like metal. HEAVY METAL. Stay away with that light metal. (Random blistering drum solo)
Here's what we're doing. I've prepared a bit.ly address and some clues that might lead you to AWESOME BANDS (20 second of pure bass grove). Find out their names and take the letter indicated in brackets. Add them all up (no capitals) and you are well on your way of solving the MOST METAL RIDDLE EVER. (Screaming falsetto, followed by 2 minutes of wild shredding, then another drum solo, then 5 minutes of pounding metal)
Hint: It may happen to anything in the way of a trve brother of metal, like dragons, evil cultists, rappers and mom.

  1. It seems he copulates like an animal. Indeed, somebody needs to be somebody... OW! Dammit, I got stung! (3)

  2. Priests and werewolves and blood, oh my! And let's not talk about their ways of sanctification or resurrection... (3) or (6)

  3. Nobody can relate to slaying dragons, but the horrors of war are all too real. Be it death in the form of nearly unstopable war machines, the tale of taking nearly 200 miles within a single day or the victory over Berlin, the history of warfare will never again sound so metal. (6)

  4. Is that an alien on the drums? What kind of music are they playing? Halleluja! (3)

  5. Ragga metal punk hip-hop? Rocks like the dickens. (5) or (8)

  6. An organ of mineral, eh? Interesting concept. What would happen if you, say, removed the plug? Ah. Death. Of course. Well, that surely places my sexual organs firmly on the wall. (4)

  7. Uh oh. Creppy bloody girl that requires my very essence? At least she said please... but let's try something else. Ah, christmas in Budapest. Evil puppet master? Blood again, enabling locomotion? Dammit! Different one. Spirits inhabiting a house? Ah, tea, that's pleasant. Wait, tea with blood? And are we quite done with the falsetto, already? (5)

Very nice, mate. Didn't figure out the last one, though, just guessed with the letter, but I am interested in that band already ) Gonna wait for the answers.. or, maybe, try to get more trve and get further, if it's possible. Is it?..

A bit further than trve, yes.

Maybe a hint then? What's the typo (eg. the letter X is actually letter Y)?

When you see the typo, you're at the end. The typo itself doesn't affect anything; all it does is sit there and look suspicious.

Not a goddamn clue. Are we supposed to seek something on that picture or what?

Let's just say it's very obvious when you see it. I don't think I can give any better hints without spoiling the whole thing.
And by the way, "trve" is not a typo. It's the trve way of writing trve.

Are we supposed to get another bit.ly address from it? I suspect a certain masked cartoon character and his song about a dragon is involved.

Sadly, knowing this isn't making it any easier. Already tried putting a bunch of stuff as part of the url. Head hurts now =P.

You made my head hurt there. What the hell? Cartoons about masked guys singing of dragons?

How this is metal?

There is a connection between that and metal :D

But I still don't see how that relates to the puzzle.

OK, I got this stuff, though I don't have a clue, why I need this and where to go and what was the point of the initial puzzle.

BTW, is this cartoon good?

I don't get this joke at all. Yes, of course I know the answer to my own puzzle.

Sorry, it's stupid indeed. Just letting free some frustration from being unable to solve the last (as I assume) step of the puzzle.

I can assure you it is quite possible without any help. Chuckie001 finished it first, I think, and several more followed. I can't tell you a specific number since due to a messup and "Oh, shiny button"-moment on my part I can't check the logs anymore.

As always this is a nice contest.

Am I supposed to get a youtube link or a dropbox link in one of the bit.ly addresses? Got from proven myself trve.

Nope. Neither Youtube nor Dropbox are involved in this in any way.
