someone tried to tell me heavy metal was just some trend that kids go through. can tell you this though. being a metal head isn't a trend. :) it is most definitely a way of life. heavy metal rules

Almost 39 here and I've been a fan of metal since I bought Kill em All back in December 2001. The album cover made me so nervous about getting in some kind of trouble with someone but as soon as Hit The Lights started I knew it would be part of my life forever!

It is kind of a joke though, when you're 50 years old and still referring to yourself as a metalhead, especially if you throw the horns up while doing it.

I'm a black metalhead guy. I've been a metalhead for almost 12 years. I'm 25. I listen to metal 24/7. We aren't evil!!!! Just different, and being ourselves. Metal is life!! The core of my very existence. Metal is still alive and kicking well. It's just that norns don't know because they think Nicki Minaj or Justin bieber is the hottest thing, but I would like to fucking disagree. In mainstream it's good because you mainstream people hate people who are different, and you guys listen to the same thing. In actuality norms are programmed, and they cause more problems than any goths, emos, metalheads, punk rockers etc... we just want to be ourselves and play metal. In a world like this definitely in 2020 it's necessary. Metal has saved my life and many others lives. It's special, different, unique and original. METAL FOR LIFE!!! There will always be haters, but they can fuck off!🤘🏽

@insidious 123 Yeah, big difference between glam "metal" and thrash metal though. Motley Crue are closer to Bon Jovi than Metallica in their musical sound. Glam "metal" is just pop metal before Nu-metal came around
@mc12358 Жыл бұрын
@@rowanmelton7643 the glam bands had an influence on early thrash bands, since thrash was, at least partially, a reaction to Poison, Quiet Riot, Mötley Crüe, etc. Kerry King said he wanted to get as far away from the LA glam bands as possible, and that helped push Slayer towards a more aggressive and faster playing style. During a TV interview in 1991, Kerry said: "what inspired me most about writing [thrash metal] was the people that inspired me the least... if those guys are selling records being women, we should be able to do something good being men"

I grew up with oldies and classic rock/AOR. In my early teens rap was starting to get mainstream attention for the first time, so I listened to Wu-Tang, 2Pac, Biggie, KRS-One, Gang Starr... in my late teens, as a social outcast, I finally found "the big four" and started buying thrash metal albums. In my 20s I found out about trance, EBM, old school techno and house, and at the same time, I educated myself on many forms of classical music (discovering parallels between the genres was lots of fun!). In my 30s I discovered a love for Berlin School and ambient electronica. I've even had my bluegrass and outlaw country phases. Now nearing my 40s I'll listen to whatever I want to listen to. If it's good music I don't care what genre it is, I'll find a way to enjoy it.

To really have experienced the 80s metal scene you would have had to been born in the mid-60s to early 70s. That would have made you a teen to early 20s during that time. Being born in the 80s you’d have been right on time to experience Godsmack, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, and other such garbage.

The only issue I have with “metal culture” is the life style it promotes of drugs, wasting time, and eating in healthy. This is coming from a “former metal head” and when I say that I mean lifestyle wise. I love the music and still rock out as much as I can. With that being said the culture is subtly promotes is detrimental and can hurt a lot of people. I love heavy metal as much as the next guy but these ideas need to be addressed respectfully.
