"as theatrical as rob zombie?" if you judge them by their record covers then, by that definition, black flag, youth of today and sonic youth are also theatrical and therefore metal. i've seen pictures and some videos of them live and they just play their songs.
motörhead are a crossover act, some people consider them metal, other punk, others (lemmy included) consider them rock; the truth is, their music has elements of all these. you can't deny that their music isn't heavy.
and i think it's a stretch saying that just by having a backdrop with a logo is being theatrical. still i get the point for megadeth, replace megadeth in that post with "exodus".
