Metal

Metal is an umbrella term (a super-genre) used to refer to a broad range of musical genres, with heavy metal being the predominant implication. However, it usually needs further clarification, since numerous subgenres of metal may vary dramatically in almost every aspect, ranging from vocals and lyrical themes to instruments and song structures.

This scene is plauged by raving fucking idiots who think theyre evil. Im sick of people fighting over whats for "posuers" and whats not. If some one makes good fucking music listen to it. If not, then shut the fuck up. I used to be on the extreme metal scene, now ive tried to drift as far away as possible, because i hate the stereotype some idiots fuel.

Also typical for metal is fans who never ever get tired of telling people what kind of metal different bands make and fight over who is better and why.

Also thrash metal is not true metal cause there are hc punk influences. Only true metal is heavy (classic) metal. Fuck yeah!

Why is black metal and death metal EVEN called metal? I cant hear any classic heavy metal riffs in death and black. Those two should be separated genres from metal... Also black and death "metalheads" have nothing in common with true heavy metalheads (like fans of Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and ect)...
