Fans campaign for heavy metal to be recognised as religion
They are being asked to officially register their faith as ''heavy metal'' while filling in the next Census questionnaire.
In the last census, a similar campaign led to 390,000 UK residents listing their religion as Jedi - the fictional creed created for the Star Wars movie saga.
Rock magazine Metal Hammer launched its campaign last week and has already attracted nearly 10,000 followers to a Facebook group.
