A lot of people are pretty intimidated when they see us metalheads but what you might not have known is that... we're all actually super wholesome! Metalheads are like one big family and we look out after each other! We're not looking for trouble and really, we're just trying to have fun and build a community that everyone can feel a part of! So when you see us banging our heads (that's our form of dancing, it's called "headbanging") and "moshing" (there are a lot of rules so that everyone is safe), don't think that we're dangerous.

You might be surprised to hear this but outside of the often very dark music we listen to (System of a Down, Sabaton, etc.) a lot of us are normal people just like you! We go to work and love our children just like everyone else! We participate in democracy and love to vote too! And yeah, there are some people in the metal community who think anything that isn't metal isn't good music but those are fortunately in the minority. Yeah, I'm talking about "those guys". No one likes "those guys". Don't be "that guy", guys. True metal heads are open to any and all music. You know, when I'm not busy listening to SLAYERRR!!!, I sometimes even like to put on some good ol' pop while doing housework! [cut away to two men with long hair headbanging to Taylor Swift - Shake it Off]

"But how can I become one of you guys???" you might ask. Well, the answer is simple, my friend. You want to be a metalhead? Well, congratulations, you now ARE a metalhead! There are no prerequisites for joining us! So throw those horns and let the power of the RIFF take you away, mwuhahaha!! *looks at the ceiling, makes an exaggerated face and slowly raises hand while doing the devil's horn*

See you at Wacken. \m/

I know a 50 year old metalhead who seethes like a 12 year old every time I mention Metallica.
>When Madonna says the she likes your music it means that you have abandoned the metal ethos. We don't want them here, they've made their intentions clear and I hope they at least realize what they've done before they die.
Nigga relax your favorite band sings about wizards.

What even would be the "metal ethos"?
Is it like the "punk ethos" of "go against society while being supported by society" or "be a non-conformist conformist"?

Not sure but dude grew up when the boundaries between subcultures were clearer and stricter (he told me stories when we were bored at work about how they had a beef with the ravers and and shit like that) so I guess the "metal ethos" is "don't talk to non-metalheads and don't appeal to non-metalheads". Kinds explains why he's pissed that Madonna likes Metallica.

That would've been back when subcultures meant more than dressup.
Nowadays subculture just means le heckin' unique individual fashion contest. Utter faggotry and neurotic behavior,

My normal reaction is laughter when i see grown men who wear cargo shorts and band t-shirts. The laughter only deepens when i actually hear what their listen too, lol

Can someone actually explain to me how these ungroomed manchildren score GFs on the regular?

Its mind boggling to me.

Metalheads are normies at this point. They're not outsiders anymore

>>127070584
Do they laugh at you for being ESL? lol

I don't look exactly like this but I say this

I've never ever really got how wearing denim and looking like you work in Games Workshop or Cex is meant to look "intimidating"

I cannot comprehend being 13 and being like "ah yeah these are the clothes I'm going to wear for the rest of my life"
