Have you found it difficult to meet people who enjoy extreme metal?

[Fury of the Storm]

Practically no one in my school likes metal. It makes me sad. There is prolly like 5 other real metal heads that I can talk to.

 

[~Derek~]

I'm like that. I have short hair and I never wear band t-shirts.

I have short hair too but it's spiked up and I occasionally wear my 2 band shirts but I also wear my Terrell Owens jersey, Michael Jordan High School Jersey, and other shirts such as my Mario or The Simpsons shirts.

 

[LivingCadaver]

either:

-I know too many bands to talk to people and they like shitty/generic bands.
-We don't like the same kind of metal.
-We both know obscure bands and we can't have a decent covnersation.
-They think SOAD is the definition of metal.

So yea I've pretty much gave up, metal forums are the place to be at though...

Where I live it's impossible to meet people who listen to Death Metal or Grind, we'r just about 20 to listen to that kind of music and we'r living like a tribe (we meet every two days and prepare concerts together, cos actually we'r three bands living together)
So there's no possibility to find any new MetalHeads here;Damn!

Heh, me too but i couldn't resist when i saw a Hammerheart T-shirt... i had to buy it. Also i got 2 T-shirts with AC/DC and Black Sabbath for my birthday so.. now i wear them.

 

[Travisty]

most of my friends either listen to slipknot or ac/dc, but i have met probably 3 other people in my school who like death metal and only one i could consider my friend.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I wish I could find stores that sold shirts by bands other than the obvious ones *cough*HotTopic*cough*.

 

[skeptik]

I get most of my shirts online, though when I go down the shore in the summer, there's a shop on the boardwalk that I've gotten good shirts from over the years like Obituary, Morbid Angel, Venom, Mercyful Fate, Slayer, Blind Guardian, Suffocation, etc.

 

[Susperia]

You get your shirts from me.

 

[skeptik]

I pissed on it then burnt it.

 

[Susperia]

You just wore it.

 

[Carcassian]

Taste in music shouldn't really be the first thing you look for in a friend.

LOYALTY is the number one trait in people, i.m.o.

 

[skeptik]

Identifying a good band shirt is far more easy than identifying a loyal friend.

 

[cookiecutter]

Seeing someone in a band shirt means that you already have something in common with them, which makes befriending them easier.

 

[Susperia]

LOYALTY.

Doesn't exist.

 

[Killbot]

Behind money.

A bud of mine, my stop-smoking-or-I'll-kill-you freind actually, is being a fucking dumbass lately, and thinking that the most important trait in freinds is humor. We fought and almost came to blows (<---insert gay joke here) over that and him just generally being a dick.

I was looking through the post a picture of yourselves thread, and most of you look like normal everyday people. Yet, I never met anyone on the streets, or at malls that has heard of Overkill, Bolt Thrower, or any other metal band that isn't mainstream.
