How can you say that, music is a matter of opinion.
Becuase you like DT does not mean that they have to, and this does not mean that they know nothing of music.
So if does not mean that they are true untill they start sing Manowar does it.

it has nothing to do with matter of opinions
for example, you cant say korn is BETTER MUSIC than DT
if you do, you know nothing about music
you can prefer one band, but you know the music is not as good, as difficult or whatever.
I prefer DT over ....dunno..Dream Theater.. but I know they are virtuous, their music is way much better than lots of metal bands. The level of difficulty is very high.
Or you can prefer any metal band (or nu metal or punk or whatever) but you know and accept that j.s. bach is way much better composer and the skills to play must be higher.
nothing to do with opinion.
It is like if you like rap over any kind of music and say its better music than metal or rock or progressive ... then u are blind (or deaf) and a jerk :p
it has nothing to do with opinions.

and when i said they feel like true metalheads i was talking about what they said to eachother: "i bet she thinks they're hardcore"
they felt like this girl had no rights to listen to DT (IMO they did like DT) because she was some kind of "poser" and dont even know the band.
 
Thats a silly thing to say.
Im not a korn fan just for a start.
But you can not say that DT is 'beter music' than anything. and musicianship never came into the point i was trying to make.

Sorry for been an arsehole but i hope you can see where i am comeing from that you can not say 'they know nothing of music' when clearly they do.
 
My best friend's cousin, who also lives here, told me that he hates DT because they "sound like P.O.D" and "don't have any talent." Then he told me that I should listen to Korn if I wanted to hear an example of a band with real talent for aggressive music.

Tell em to listen to The Gallery, then try find better technical gothenburg melo death. Wait, that was 1995..he probably was still in diapers when that hit my mailbox.

heh i dont think u are an arsehole :p
we just have different opinions about it
 
Hell I get made fun of all the time for listening to DT and almost everything else I like. It's cool, I'd be pretty lame if I started to like all the same things everybody else did.
