Metal band for non metalheads.

[V.V.V.V.V.]

When I run into hipsters on the internet

haha

Did anyone read the av club top metal list cookiecutter(Nick)posted?

I did.

And I liked the list. It's better than anything Pitchfork would come up with.

Having said that, I do own most the records they listed so I'm biased.

 

[Judzfell]

Metallica because anyone can just say, "I like metallica" and claim he can enjoy metal.

I picked 'Tallica because there are so many non-metallers that wear Metallica shirts. But a lot came close, like Cannibal Corpse. There's some emo queer in my school who wears a My Chemical Romance shirt one day and a Cannibal Corpse shirt the next. It pisses me off.

Mustaine's vocals are an acquired taste, apparently:zombie:

I took to his vocals right away. His riffage destroys, his lyrics attacking the establishment & statis quo, all of it. I get the impression that personally he's a little drama bitch though.

Def not a metalhead if you cant enjoy abit of Megadeth

I have see some great reviews for Mastodon,from people that don't listen to metal.

As if you have a clue about.... anything

I do see Cannibal Corpse shirts sometimes.

 

[razoredge]

nor were they innovators of the Genre of Metal as whole.

I hope your not serious, so much of the metal out there is rehashed Metallica riffs

I'd say Rage Against the Machine if you could really call them metal, out of the ones up there then I'd vote for Iron Maiden. There's also a highly disturbing trend of hardcore kids around here wearing black metal shirts/listening to black metal, and of course SUPER-TECHNICAL-BROOTAL DEATH METAL

I had a wigger (chav for those of you across the pond) comment on my "Butchered at Birth" t-shirt once. He said "Damn, yo, I ain't seen noone wear that shirt in a grip, dude." I couldn't help but to laugh in his face.

Chav are people in UK right?They do get dislike by lots of non metalheads and metalheads.

My brother loves Isis' whole discography to death, including Mosquito Control, but doesn't like metal...I just don't get it (the latter part I mean, I love Isis).

 

[SweptbackFlame]

How is this even possible for a 'metalhead'? They're fucking everywhere!

Exactly what I was thinking.

Or Neds as we call them in Scotland.

Anyone who listens to heavy guitar music where I listen to gets labelled an emo or a goth.

Same thing here in the States. Perhaps ironically, perhaps unfortunately it was only back in the 80's and early 90's did people get labeled as metalheads for liking anything guitar driven. That only pissed off the punks and goths, but I'd rather be labeled any of those rather than emo.

 

[DarkBliss]

I don't understand why people still care how others label them.
Face it, most people are hypocrites.Even friends ,may sometimes turn to foes under certain circumstances. Does it matter what they say or think ? Not really.Your family and closest friends are all that matters.
