For no reason at all this video got "age-restricted" which makes it so it doesn't show up in peoples' suggested feed, or even my subscribers lol... After hours of talking with support they FINALLY removed it but the video's reach is already destroyed. So if you like the vid please share, comment, like, all that bs
So my first taste of actual rock was Hybrid Theory, and then a few years later I found SOAD through Toxicity. And now I can't stop myself jamming at Metallica. Holy crap was that so freaking accurate.
Best one by far. So true, I’ve even go back to thinking I’ve told non metal listeners to go listen to those albums when they ask me why the music I listen to is my favorite and go to’s, rather then listen to pop or rap like most people. It’s just good for the soul
We all got into the "getting into metal" and "i'm 12 and i like death metal" starter packs at some point. And now i noticed i look like a modern metal guitarist most of the time lmao
Post metal starter pack: reverb and delay pedals set to 10 on every knob, play a note and leave it hanging for 25 minutes through your Rockerverb or Marshall JCM800
4:32 thats 100% the most accurate starter pack I have seen in my whole life so far especially the point about listening to progressively heavier music but I still can't get myself to really like listening to deathcore and the likes yet though Neverbloom (Make Them Suffer) and especially Flesh Coffin (Lorna Shöre) are really growing on me. Also "eventually coming back to appreciate those classics" I already do that and I only began listening to metal(core mostly) since the beginning of this year 😂 edit: 7:13 Anthrax was one of the first bands that introduced me into Metal Lol. First Linkin Park of course then Red then Anthrax.
6:11 well obviously cause there are lots of forests in Norway Sweden and Finland so therefore we have a lot of sticks to get inspiration from and the axes are for chopping down trees and sticks
The first i listened was Linkin Park, some years later i started listening some classic rock bands like RHCP, Foo Fighters, Guns N' Roses, etc. But one day i listened to the Metallica's Black Album and that changed completely my taste, it was amazing.
When I was new to metal the first band I heard and liked was Dimmu Borgir LOL and those bands like System of a Down, Slipknot and Metallica started liking me a lot later. if someone is new to metal, the truth is that those bands that I mentioned before are good for attracting ppl to this community
I'm 15 and started with slipknot and then Linkin Park,SOAD,Metallica,Korn.Eventuelly I got into heavier stuff like black metal and a bit of death metal like decapitated and metalcore I Prevail.Everything slaps!! Nu Metal and Black Metal,Thrash are my fav genres.
Djent starter pack: your drummer has to have a cymbal stack, and it HAS to be Meinl. Also, at least the lead singer has to have a Pidgeotto haircut. Don't forget the space structure music videos!
Here to help the Algorithm and you Nik. Love the content you put out everyday my man, you deserve better, as do many youtubers getting claimed or age restricted
The new metal listener starter pack was to accurate. That was exactly how I got into metal. Only difference was black went first because I grew up with classic rock so I was already hearing some metallica and then it went lp and soad
Metal Kid starter pack: either owns a electric guitar or a bass guitar. is in a band "Its too loud can you be more quiet?"- mom room full of posters bought punk choker or arm leather with spikes from amazon amp and pedal either from amazon or from a different official site
When I was in my teens the "getting into metal" one would be spot on other than I never came back around to SoaD. I love me some pre-St Anger Metallica and pre- Jay-Z Linkin Park. Absolute gems.
driving me mad you aren't showing these started packs in their entirety, just the pieces you talk bout argh, going to look to go find them now for gigs
I mean as a someone who loves good chunk of Power Metal, that's kinda not true. That starter pack is just for people who thinks Dragonforce and Gloryhammer are the only Power Metal bands.
I actually got into metal a little differently. I went from laying around playing Bully and listening to bands like Staind, Seether, Breaking Benjamin, etc., to starting a Myspace with burning crosses in the background and listening to Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir. Jumped right to it. Didn't pass go, didn't collect $200. No transition. Loved it.
I started with those AND Linkin Park/SOAD. Then I went to Aggrotech/Industrial Black Metal and then Black Metal (alongside the gateway bands in the middle.)
You're not wrong about Lambgoat. I think Trevor Strnad's passing was the only article I've ever seen on there where the toxic comments didn't start until after like 40 posts.
The modern metal guitarist one is only true for like, Djenty Core overproduced core bands, but most metalheads that aren't on the internet 24/7 aren't like that at all.
Power metal starter pack redux since why not?: Dragons Fantasy Probably takes after Tolkien Hyper speed or a slow emotional ballad, no in between Americans hate it Solos are just classic symphonies played on guitar Singer sounds castrated Sung in English, unless you're Japanese Brazil and Japan's favorite metal genre Still have not gotten a Kingdom Hearts power metal band If not Tolkien, then it's probably a DnD game the band is playing (Rhapsody of Fire, Epidemia) or video games (DragonForce, Keldian, Master Sword) Band names are fantasy creatures (DragonForce, Fairyland, Dragonland, Dragon Guardian), a book (Narnia, Versailles, possibly also Beast In Black), or video games (Master Sword, DragonForce, Pathfinder, Pentakill)
Geting into Metal starter pack is so accurate hahaha. I remember wondering, if there possibly can be heavier band than one called Megadeth. Even though I knew their 2 songs gahahah
The entry to metal was a carbon copy of 14 Year old me. I thought Psychosocial was THE heaviest song ever! Now I relax to Alex Terrible and Ramos screaming in my ear while casually nodding my head to absolute filthy breakdowns ☕😌 Metallica still the goat tho! Been a diehard since 2008!
Hey, the British Flag should also be in the Black Metal starter pack. We founded the genre ffs. Plus artists like Akercocke, Hecate Enthroned, Winterfylleth, Necronautical, Bal-Sagoth, Ethereal, early Cradle of Filth and the founders who's song "Black Metal" became the genres name, Venom are all from the UK.

how
popped up in my recommended box, i think it was the 4th video in my recommended box
It was the Black Metal part of the video!😂🤣
Please tell me you have seen Jared Dines latest collab with Tallah... 🤌
This was the middle video right at the top of my suggested as soon as I opened RUclips, hopefully it’s the same with everyone else
Of course Nik can recognize Through the Fire and Flames tab by sight lmao
D:
At this point it takes longer to read the genre than the lyrics
Lmao
He ain’t wrong tho
Lmao
So my first taste of actual rock was Hybrid Theory, and then a few years later I found SOAD through Toxicity. And now I can't stop myself jamming at Metallica. Holy crap was that so freaking accurate.
Legendary starter albums
Best one by far. So true, I’ve even go back to thinking I’ve told non metal listeners to go listen to those albums when they ask me why the music I listen to is my favorite and go to’s, rather then listen to pop or rap like most people. It’s just good for the soul
Yeah that one was scary acccurate
If you are european or German there would be Rammstein aswell
Literally same
We all got into the "getting into metal" and "i'm 12 and i like death metal" starter packs at some point. And now i noticed i look like a modern metal guitarist most of the time lmao
GG
“Everyone was twelve at one point.”
Tell that to all of the dead 0-11-year-olds.
You know you didn’t have to say this right
@@TheObserverDMZ he absolutely did
They are still twelve. Twelve feet under.
wtf
@@musicheaven7868 double deep coffin?
That "getting into metal" starterpack is so on point. It was the Meteora album for me instead of hybrid theory but everything else was spot on
LP is a big one
Yep same for me
that thrash metal one makes me reflect on my guitar choices *looks at guitars on wall and sees 4 pointy headtstocks
I really like those Jackson headstocks and the sharkfin inlays.
Danger
I'm 28 and that 12 year old death metal starter pack was my mood a couple of months ago...
As an everyday Black Metal enjoyer, that starter pack was accurate af!! And greetings from the darkness of Finland!😂
:D
@@NikNocturnal But that's the starter pack, because after 20 yrs off listening to BM you lose all that and just don't give af what you wear..😂
I don't know how it is in Canada, but in the US, there is an abandoned warehouse in every small town.
Noted for future videos

FACTS
7:35 why this is so accurate
0:09 The most accurate one.
Hybrid Theory was my gateway drug. Now I remember when I thought Slipknot was super heavy.
4:32 thats 100% the most accurate starter pack I have seen in my whole life so far especially the point about listening to progressively heavier music but I still can't get myself to really like listening to deathcore and the likes yet though Neverbloom (Make Them Suffer) and especially Flesh Coffin (Lorna Shöre) are really growing on me.
Also "eventually coming back to appreciate those classics" I already do that and I only began listening to metal(core mostly) since the beginning of this year 😂
edit: 7:13 Anthrax was one of the first bands that introduced me into Metal Lol. First Linkin Park of course then Red then Anthrax.
Black metal starter pack... Crucifix and a zippo
Oh my.
I feel personally attacked... lmfao
😂😂😂
GG
6:11 well obviously cause there are lots of forests in Norway Sweden and Finland so therefore we have a lot of sticks to get inspiration from and the axes are for chopping down trees and sticks
Ah yes, Suicide Season. Great band. Right up there with System of a Doormat and Linkin Chafee
The first i listened was Linkin Park, some years later i started listening some classic rock bands like RHCP, Foo Fighters, Guns N' Roses, etc.
But one day i listened to the Metallica's Black Album and that changed completely my taste, it was amazing.
The 12 year old pack slaps
Oh yeah 100%
i love how diverse Metal can be, it's fuckin' great.
Yes
2:18 Nik did you just call a battle vest a "patch jacket"? Lmao
Found the elitist
It's a jacket that's filled with patches
ahahaha battle vest.. does each patch add another layer of armor and bad assery for larping or is it all for fake street points
@@jensmedgaffeln Knowing what it's called is elitism? Okay
@@alskarmode it's just a joke. :)
Getting into metal starter pack - Southeast Asia edition
-Heard "Dear God" at an internet cafe
From A7X to dying Fetus
gotta love nik popovic
When I was new to metal the first band I heard and liked was Dimmu Borgir LOL and those bands like System of a Down, Slipknot and Metallica started liking me a lot later. if someone is new to metal, the truth is that those bands that I mentioned before are good for attracting ppl to this community
that 2 frame Slaughter to prevail popup made me cackle. yes "heavy" truly gets stretched nowadays
I'm 15 and started with slipknot and then Linkin Park,SOAD,Metallica,Korn.Eventuelly I got into heavier stuff like black metal and a bit of death metal like decapitated and metalcore I Prevail.Everything slaps!! Nu Metal and Black Metal,Thrash are my fav genres.
4:50 i am so glad to be alive for this evolution of heavy music :3
I stumbled across a band before, their genre was ethnic djent it didn't disappoint man... Metal is awesome
Slaughter to Prevail really is Russian Slipknot that never got past Iowa
1:25 that was "Xavleg" it's a very nice band :)
2:20 IT IS CALLED A BATTLE VEST/ BATTLE JACKET!!!!!
The schecter board meeting is one of my favorite memes lmao 🤣 it's so accurate
Legendary meme
Djent starter pack: your drummer has to have a cymbal stack, and it HAS to be Meinl. Also, at least the lead singer has to have a Pidgeotto haircut. Don't forget the space structure music videos!
What was that burp?! 🤣 🤣 🤣 it sounded like an alien creature's mating call lol
0:27 immediately thought of benn suede

Thanks you!
The new metal listener starter pack was to accurate. That was exactly how I got into metal. Only difference was black went first because I grew up with classic rock so I was already hearing some metallica and then it went lp and soad
Wow I didn’t think I’d get called out so quickly but… here I am
I mean, c’mon now
Everybody knows Ghost fuckin sucks 😂
The metal archives website should be on the metal elitist starter pack.
I think like Attila ,crown the empire,issue,chunk no captain ,a day to remember
Metal has metal balls
A would pick a hollow body guitar with 2 humbuckers or 2 p90s or a semi hollow of the same 2 pickup configuration with the same 2 types of pickups
Metal Kid starter pack:
either owns a electric guitar or a bass guitar.
is in a band
"Its too loud can you be more quiet?"- mom
room full of posters
bought punk choker or arm leather with spikes from amazon
amp and pedal either from amazon or from a different official site
"Getting into metal" pack hits different
YouToob did you dirty 😱
'Phrost
That first one really came for Sabian Lynch haha
When I was in my teens the "getting into metal" one would be spot on other than I never came back around to SoaD. I love me some pre-St Anger Metallica and pre- Jay-Z Linkin Park. Absolute gems.
0:30 calling me out lol
7:35
Officer , its him
driving me mad you aren't showing these started packs in their entirety, just the pieces you talk bout argh, going to look to go find them now for gigs
Getting into metal one was kinda right for me. The toxicity album was my first metal album, then Architects album Holy Hell was my second
I mean as a someone who loves good chunk of Power Metal, that's kinda not true. That starter pack is just for people who thinks Dragonforce and Gloryhammer are the only Power Metal bands.
that last one... off by like 1 album on each band but yeah. i wont even lie , scary accurate
Used to jam in an old warehouse hahaha Totally accurate
5:12 I’m not a RUclipsr but I do have that Chapman and I love Pantera so accurate
Fuck djent tho
Well crap, apparently I was 12 in my 20s when I got into heavier music... cause BMTH, Suicide Silence, and Chelsea Grin were it. lol
Unholy throne and decapitated titan are sick names ngl
Deathcore band picture is waaaay off. Everyone knows deathcore band pics take place on asphalt with a nondescript building behind them.
Yes
Must've missed the memo on all of these starter packs
So accurate it hurts.
1:29 just gloryhammer lmao
0:22 Sabian from Alpha Wolf lol
When you're 23 but you still jam the "I'm 12 and I like death metal" starter pack: 😐 *emotionally drained*
I actually got into metal a little differently. I went from laying around playing Bully and listening to bands like Staind, Seether, Breaking Benjamin, etc., to starting a Myspace with burning crosses in the background and listening to Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir. Jumped right to it. Didn't pass go, didn't collect $200. No transition. Loved it.
I started with those AND Linkin Park/SOAD. Then I went to Aggrotech/Industrial Black Metal and then Black Metal (alongside the gateway bands in the middle.)
For thrash metal, it’s more like everyone forgot about Anthrax. I forgot they’re a part of the big four.
Modern metalcore starter pack should be: Neural DSP, GGD, Noise gates, Bass sims, Drop [redacted] tuning
Classical jazz and blues also has a lot of subs genres but most of genres are periodical or geo
You're not wrong about Lambgoat. I think Trevor Strnad's passing was the only article I've ever seen on there where the toxic comments didn't start until after like 40 posts.
The modern metal guitarist one is only true for like, Djenty Core overproduced core bands, but most metalheads that aren't on the internet 24/7 aren't like that at all.
4:35 VERY TRUE FOR PEOPLE IK LMAOOOO, its funny cause a friend of mine literally said this too
Modern metal guitarist starter pack is just perfectly describing Sabian Lynch from Alpha Wolf
Really feeling attacked right now as a believer that Evolve is the best thing Chelsea Grin has ever done. It's bad enough I was already alone
Toxicity and Psychosocial got me into metal
You know what video I would like to see "10 levels of shredding (feat. Cole Rolland)" that would be sick
7:15 I love Anthrax 🥺
Power metal starter pack redux since why not?:
Dragons
Fantasy
Probably takes after Tolkien
Hyper speed or a slow emotional ballad, no in between
Americans hate it
Solos are just classic symphonies played on guitar
Singer sounds castrated
Sung in English, unless you're Japanese
Brazil and Japan's favorite metal genre
Still have not gotten a Kingdom Hearts power metal band
If not Tolkien, then it's probably a DnD game the band is playing (Rhapsody of Fire, Epidemia) or video games (DragonForce, Keldian, Master Sword)
Band names are fantasy creatures (DragonForce, Fairyland, Dragonland, Dragon Guardian), a book (Narnia, Versailles, possibly also Beast In Black), or video games (Master Sword, DragonForce, Pathfinder, Pentakill)
Saw the thumbnail and thought of Sabian from Alpha wolf 😂 he got the drip though 🔥
I started with Dream Theatre, then The Dillinger Escape Plan after that it was a long ride
Dorje was Rob Chapman's former band with Rabea.
Why is Chelsea grin on “I’m 12 and like death metal”
Geting into Metal starter pack is so accurate hahaha. I remember wondering, if there possibly can be heavier band than one called Megadeth. Even though I knew their 2 songs gahahah
So the first one was just a shot at Alpha Wolf! 😂
a bit
Always gotta love Schecter
Don't forget where you started nick 😉
Toxicity 🎵in the city, THE TABLE!🎵
I will never not laugh at "????????" in these edits.
I have that Chapman Ghost fret at 5:26 lol My favorite guitar
1:25 xavleg reference
The entry to metal was a carbon copy of 14 Year old me. I thought Psychosocial was THE heaviest song ever! Now I relax to Alex Terrible and Ramos screaming in my ear while casually nodding my head to absolute filthy breakdowns ☕😌 Metallica still the goat tho! Been a diehard since 2008!
Why is this so accurate???
4:33 100% relate!
Thrash one isn't totally true, I love Anthrax!
Dorje is a metal band
Hey, the British Flag should also be in the Black Metal starter pack. We founded the genre ffs.
Plus artists like Akercocke, Hecate Enthroned, Winterfylleth, Necronautical, Bal-Sagoth, Ethereal, early Cradle of Filth and the founders who's song "Black Metal" became the genres name, Venom are all from the UK.
this made me laugh, so good job sir.
Where’s the hardcore band starter pack featuring cut off shirts, camo pants and Carhartt hats??
the metalcore and deathcore I listen to have quite a bit of solos in it.
its a very polite and educational video...
