Nu males can't like metal.or embody it>but metal is leftist u chudarino!In the 70s and 80s, that just meant liking sex and drugs, not being beta. The dynamic has shifted
>>124008176Metallica have more Spotify followers than the Beatles
>>124008176Hey man. You need to stop posting like a faggot.
>>124008243Faggots like dance/black music>>124008202And?
>>124008202They're alive, make updates, and still do shows.
>>124008176Well both Mustaine and Hetfield are arch-Republicans now, so...stuff wasn't as obviously political in the '80s but would have been apparent that most of the kids who listened to metal back then became Republicans while the kids who became Democrats listened to punk or college rock.
>>124008176Why "Nu" instead of "new"
>>124008386>Well both Mustaine and Hetfield are arch-Republicans now,Nah, both have always been libertarian-ish. Especially Mustaine. Even way back in the MTV days when he was helping them with "Rock the Vote", he was the Libertarian voice - along with Kennedy, the VJ.
>>124008484nta but anyone who has a libertarian mindset (being that that tends to mean belief in less government) is not going to vote Democrat
>>124008176>metal is leftistmetal is about freedom, which is decidedly un-leftist (although the "left/right" dichotomy is basically a complete fabrication and a divide and conquer tactic)
>>124008548True, but they're still hands off with a lot of social mores. You can't exactly predict where their ethics stand, like you might with Republicans. Danzig's a libertarian too, and obviously not concern with any traditional morality at all.
I don't understand a single word from OP (new to /mu/), but I just want to say you sound like a faggot and> haven't really been into metal for like >10 years (I'm early 30s) listening to mostly folk, idm and rock.> oh aftershock is this Friday, let's go> random goth bitch I'm fucking can't come, whatever just go by myself> 99% of metalheads under 30 are weird, scrawny, surprisingly short, little shits that can't keep up with the pit during Slipknot.Just sad really. Surely this was not always the case? Or was it just 16yo me thinking that the crowds actually looked that scary.The good thing is that the older 20s-50 crowd is pretty great, but a lot of them have been doing this for decades now lmao so they are not as eager to get close to the stage and stuff because they have seen and done it before.>inb4 nice blog faggot
>>124008705When I was in the 1st grade I thought 5th graders looked enormous and towering.
The average metal band looks like this. That's not a slight, these fuckers are cool. You're just a whiny little baby bitch who comes to piss his diaper here because he knows he can't actually gatekeep a show. Why don't you stand at the door and judge how manly people are instead of bitching here
>>124008705When you were a kid you were getting the satanic panic background radiation from suburban moms that thought metal was all about trying to get their kids to commit suicide for the devil, metal has always, ALWAYS been about larp. That's not an insult that's just what it is when you get on stage with facepaint and sing a song about fucking a dragon or fist fighting the specter of death or whatever
>>124008176You definitely don't get any pussy.
>>124008176Metal wasn't "leftist" in the 70s and 80s. Black Sabbath were openly anti-communist and a lot of the "hair metal" bands were republicans or centrists.
>>124008979>metalcore>metalwalk on home, zoomboy
>>124008202this >>124008311there's actually a reason to "follow" them. Beatles have more monthly listeners.
>>124009626TBDM is a melodeath band. They've never been metalcore.
As Anon above me said, Metal is more about Fuck them!, I am not following their stupid rules than a real dicothomy political right/left. Let alone the stupid current libtard politics.>>124008176He wasn't bad, the problem is you compare, Marty always wins.
>>124009685Not that anon but technically they were melocore on their first demo. You are correct for everything else they released, though.
>>124010069Sure. They were playing Carolina style At the Gates worship on the demo but that's not what that dude is talking about and you know it.
>>124009626Not only are you retarded, what fucking zoomer listens to The Black Dahlia Murder?
>>124009300>Black Sabbath were openly anti-communistNot just that. Geezer Butler is a practicing Catholic. After Tomorrow is a straight up Christian rock song.
>>124010308lol cope more
>>124010308
What's your opinion on the Poland and Samuelson lineup versus Friedman and Menza, anon? I see lots of comments praising the previous, especially on tracks like this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNNob42zlto
>>124010222They listened to BTBAM and BTH if they were early zoomers/had millennial boyfriends while underaged.
>>124009685Who cares their band name is so gay ill never listen to it
>>124008176>>124008386>>124008484>>124008548>>124008584>>124009300Jesus Christ I fucking hate Americans, just clear off all of you
>>124012227Rip lineup is better.
>>124008176
>>124012227dave was still too much of a control freak and strung out on skag in the 80s to give others input in the band. he didn't loosen up until someone like marty came along who could legitimately rival dave in skill.
