I would say I'm a rare breed, I'm what's called a 'considerate metal elitist'.
I'm not going to lie though, I probably am an 'elitist'. I just don't feel the need to put people down for what they listen to. If I put down a band, I'll always be able to explain why I feel that way towards them. Maybe that's just being opinionated and not caring what people think rather than being 'elitist'? I don't know.
