a faggot

told me that trivium are just like death and testament. I should burn him with a ciggarrette!



I agree with the faggot. All 3 have usually had two guitar players, one vocalist, a bass player, and a drummer. Testament and Trivium have both supported Iron Maiden right? Multiple members of each band have had long hair or still do. I think the kid is on to something...
 
Why don't you explain to him instead of poking him in the chest going, "HA HA!!! I KNOW MORE ABOUT METAL THAN YOU DO!!!!!"

Maybe he's just getting turned on to some of this stuff and he probably wants to name drop a few bands around you to not feel like a total dork. I mean, you gotta admit that metalheads are some pretty nasty and evil bastards. He's a noob...we all were at one time...although I've been listening to heavy metal since I was 5.

Unless he's a complete douchebag, give him a break and introduce some bands to him that you think he might like. Metalcore is a whole lot better starting point than Linkin Park.

i tried getting him to different bands and he is a douche bag. i tried pointing it out but he still stuck with his opinion. some people are stubborn like that
 
I think Dead Winter nailed it on the head.

Some people just don't have the opportunity to know more about good bands, so they don't know what they speak of.
