+IRON GOBLIN Niiiiice reference \m/ black album was always my favourite
+Claire Emery Black Album is fucking mainstream. KILL EM ALL !!! \m/
Nihilist Metallica is fucking mainstream
MEGADETH !!! \m/
THEMONKEYWITHNOSOUL Agree !
metal is not music it's a lifestyle
Backtoast And if you can maintain that lifestyle until age 50 (without dying from starving, liver failure, or injuries from moshing), you'll be considered a metal/underground legend.
Backtoast I totally agree with you.
metal is just music, I'm a singer, I make lyrics and some rhythms, I just sing in concerts and stuff, when i'm home I dont want to hear any kind of music cause you hear, practice the same fucking song over and over, it was fun to listen metal all day when i was younger but now is a job... and like all jobs it gets boring
garasxetia 98 Thus you don't like working or you find work boring.
I salute you
I wish I could relate but none of my friends listen to metal
same here...
Join the club. Sucks ass big time
+seinfeld is god joined the club
I totally can, I used to be in a band where my lead guitarist was affectionately referred to as "little goth". Had pale skin, always wore black and shredded hard...
He moved to London and is now a latte sipping hipster.
It hurts man.
You know what must be done.
*Be* that friend!
Man did he say $6 for a shirt daymmmm I would of bought two
$6.66
More like the entire box.
"would of"???
You could easily sell the rest of the box for full price and make a hella profit...
Andrea Misha Bibiano I guess americans write what they hear
This was depressing. That one friend who was once a brutal metal head becomes a mainstream hipster fuckface.
Their spirt lives on in every slayer pit
Rock. In. Peace
Relatable. Had a friend who just lost it and started listening to Selena Gomez...
that's all too common here, while I enjoy EARLY indie rock from the 80s like the Cows, Killdozer and The Butthole Surfers, modern indie blows and rap doesn't have the capacity to be experimental with a few exceptions.
i agree. i love metal and will never stop the new judas priest album was amazin
mine went from In Flames to trap rap, soundcloud, and indie rock. I remained I metalhead....20 years and going. also I'm the older one.
The piano version of fade to black sounds like it could be backing music for creepypasta.
LOL
More like the backing music for a feelspasta
it is
metallica and creepy pastas are a violation of code -.-
lol i luv metal and I didn't even notice XD
How can you even listen to music through an apple?!
Max Stirner wouldn't be surprised if a metalhead uses an iPhone whatever.
I use Apple Music and Buy CD's so that was pretty Funny
ThrasherDude same.
lol "Fade To Black" on piano playing in the background
that song got me into metal
At 0:45
I love this song
thats hilarious
@@seanglueckert8312 if you like sepultura you should check out nervosa.
I love the fact that the "sad" music is Fade to Black
Lirk Hulrich Well, fade to Black IS depressing
And it could be a meme but we respect the song too much.
I mean... It is about a man killing himself...........
I want to buy a metal shirt from Chris.
Jimmy Gray Same, I wanna support this cute moochi
six dollars is a great deal
Ouzhan Oz and great selection too

I just need a new band shirt
"FUCK DAVE MUSTARD STAIN RIP OLD SCHOOL ANTHRAX FUCK" I'm actually in tears
I love how he is constantly making Megadeth puns
RiP dave mustard stain. Greatest session player/guitar tech of the past 3 years.

Can the fade to black intro in piano become the new 'hello darkness' or 'all around me are familiar faces' meme
Flaccid Pancake the 2nd song is called mad world
I've known people just like that. Especially when it comes to people being obsessed with indie stuff and waving off their "metal phase".
I like both.
That's fine. I'm talking about people that say stuff like "oh I used to like metal but then I grew up and discovered thinking man's music like Neutral Milk Hotel."
Went through that phase a year ago. I used to love metal then I found indie and thought indie was life. I have recently started really getting back into metal though. Both can be really good.
I knew this one guy who said Liturgy was the only metal band he could tolerate.
For sure. Both genres have a lot of great and not so great artists to offer if you ask me.
I think its amazeing that you got Dimebag to be in a video. I thought he was dead!
The fact that he looks like dimebag that make this vids sad for me.
+Mart9511 Killswitch HAH EMO !!!
+Nihilist Why not? Dimebag is the legend that change the world of metal and is it wrong for me to give my respect to the legend?
Mart9511 Killswitch you respect overrated legend by crying? Bitch please...
+Nihilist I don't really care about your opinion. If he is overated and that is just your opinion. Metal will never be overrated in the music industry as long as people listen to shit they call music.
can't lose metalhead friends if you don't have any :')
friend me dude
im cool
im lonlley
yesh idk
The Fade to Black is just too perfect.

Can I get likes for no reason?
+Cameron Kosak no thanks
+Cameron Kosak - Here is mine then.
I thought it was One sped up the first two times it played
like a friend of mine used to listen to slayer and amon amarth, and like the next week she was wearing like t-shirts from h&m and listening to twenty-one fucking pilots and panic at the disco.
i'm so sorry for you
My long time friend is starting to drift from metal and it depresses me. He's the only friend I have that listened to it. He told me he listens to country most of the time. I ain't mad......
Yea I'm mad.
Like someone said up above. Metal is life. You just can't not be a metal head. That would mean it was just a phase. Metal isn't a phase for me and I'll be listening to it until the day I die.
Lurch Murphy Me too murf
***** true, but now she is ignoring me too
There's nothing wrong with liking other genres of music, don't be so closed minded.
True story. Except both of them are me and whole thing is happening in my head
You have issues. Jk. 😂
Oh wow,I never thought I could relate to a comment so much
"How do you even listen to music out of an apple" is my new life mantra.
We need more of this guy
He could be the star of the show!
+Punk zombie should*
Danish Hypocrite True that.
Yeah, who needs the fucking hipster
There's just so many kinds and subgenres of metal and so many bands and songs that it's so hard to get bored of it. If you get tired of doom metal, go heavier. Deathcore getting old? Go back to the roots of heavy metal.
Blackened Thrash ftw.
I wouldn't consider any subgenre better than another. Thrash ain't king, if anything it's kind of getting dated due to lack of any creativity outside of "let's sound exactly like __________ thrash metal band from the Eighties" but Vektor is still kicking ass.
The Abyssal Archivist
tbh thrash is king
but this comment was more for people who feel bored of metal. There's always another genre or band
The Abyssal Archivist
and i didnt mean that any genre was better than the other, my favorites are thrash and power, but there are so many other subgenres that people ignore in their quest to be "metal".
With all due respect, why does thrash metal always get a free pass as the "gold standard" of metal? Who made that rule?
I feel that when a metal head leaves the community, there always be that one shirt, CD, band, etc that they'll continue to cherish. Being involved in this community is not an easy thing to leave behind.
Even when I went through all of my phases throughout middle and high school I never once stopped listening to metal. Metal is my first love of music and it will always be that way. Right now TAIM is my favorite band.
WHEN THE FADE TO BLACK PIANO STARTED PLAYING I ALMOST CHOKED ON MY BEER
Please, more clips of you crashing into walls with shopping carts. I died laughing.
I love his Kill Em All Patch on the back
My favourite Metallica album!
@@lbentforleather9654 god I hate how Metallica changed after Cliffs death. They were so god.
@@mariovomhof2775 uh, ...And Justice For All was a great album dude, and that was after Cliffs death! The black album was good as well. Not as great as the other 4 that came before it, but still good.
@@westtexasrailfan ajfa is great but the riffs are a bit boring. Idk. But I respect your opinion.
@@mariovomhof2775 I respect yours as well.
I thought for sure he would get bored on the plane and listen to metal and get hooked again
If this guy was selling band T-shirts I'd be like " YEAAH GIMME TWO"
id take em all haha
Gimme 10!
I get its for humor, but I don't really see why there's such a rift between people who're into alt. rock and metal. I've always loved both. I could listen to The Strokes and Slayer and not give a damn whether it's the same type of music or not.
Well yeah the strokes are more rock and pretty cool, but to some it's not as powerful and strong as metal, it can sometimes even be perceived as weak. It's even harder to listen to pop and hip hop because it's so synthesized and auto tuned. Most songs never even feature a real instrument, and the tracks are usually composed by multiple producers. Did you know Rihanna's "Umbrella" has a drum track ripped straight off a loop in GarageBand? Maybe that's why metal heads have such an appreciation for classic music, something which requires years of training and lots of skill play. I try not to be one of those people, and truth be told, I don't think most people are actually like that.
Tl;dr metal heads don't like music besides metal and classical because it takes no talent or is too mellow and not br00tal
+Audio Blur the real instruments point is weak. Compositions are about the end effect. It's not really important if human hands actually played them. Even modern classical has electronic effects. As the saying goes, the road to hell is paved with false premises.
I don't care if the song uses a drum machine as long as it's a good composition.
Audio Blur I look at how well the songs are composed and if they stick with me (in a good way of course). Plus some of the most skilled musicians in the world are in Jazz if you're going to look for instrument technicality. Ex- Megadeth guitarist Chris Poland was a Jazz-Rock fusion guitar player before he ever played any metal. Good ol' Dave Mustaine once said that Chris' playing abilities were beyond his, saying Chris could play "circles around him." There are even a few metal drummers that would even tell you they picked up blast beats from some of the great jazz drummers. Anyways, the point is metal isn't the only genre with greatly skilled musicians.
There are hundreds of good hip hop and pop artists who write their own songs and play instruments, you just have to take the effort and find them.
(Well, probably not sooo many hip hop artists with real instruments ^^)
I see your point. I know people like Buckethead, Malmsteen and Paul Gilbert often use drum machines and other electronic tools, heck strings in most songs are keyboards. I was talking more about mainstream pop and rap, where they do hundreds of takes of a song and meticulously compile only the best parts, where they often use subtle auto tune, where every artist is a ghostwriter for another artist, and where instrumental tracks are seldom made by the singer. Obviously that's not true for everyone and there are many great artists, but that was what I was talking about. I was focusing more on the amount of effort used to make a song, but I completely agree with you about the composition.
sry4l8rply
I like that Chris gets offended everytime he doesnt know someone
His hair is glorious
When your friend Goes Mainstream, you friendship Fades to Black
I thought that chris and jhoff were the same person.
dumbass
Mr Superstar XV IKR
Tomé Silva yes
not cool
This is a comment.
I’m 48 and metal truly is a lifestyle. Enough said. 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
rip karpizzle
Finally someone shows some respect for ANNIHILATOR!
Can we talk about how all my old band mates and bands in my scene went to become sound cloud rappers
Unfortunately this happened to me when I first started getting into metal.
I started listening to the occasional Master of Puppets (because I bought the album completely by accident, I only wanted the song. Note I was about 10-11 years old at the time and just got my first device), and he the occasional “greatest hits” of Metallica.
He introduced me to songs like Fade to Black, and Enter Sandman. After that, it was all in for me. Listened to all of their studio albums multiple times over, still love em to this day. Of course now I have bands like Slayer and Municipal Waste to go along with Metallica, but they’re still my favorite just because it’s what got me into metal (and the right kind of metal, thrash).
My friend though...didn’t go along with me. He kind of stopped after hearing the songs with music videos and Master of Puppets. He never listened to any other metal unless it was bands that I would show him.
His favorite Metallica song used to be One. What is it now you might ask? The Unforgiven II. THE UNFORGIVEN II!!!
Ahem
At least he still likes some hard rock stuff like Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace, but he still listens to pop music like that song I hate called “Cheerleader” (at least he used to, maybe he moved on from that song). I just wish he would have jumped off the deep end with me.
Now I have friends who don’t listen to metal. Well, one is up and coming, but she’s not quite to the pinnacle yet.
Anyway, sorry for the Fallout 4 style companion rant, just had to vent a little.
When the person that got you into metal and you had a crush on, goes hippie. Yea that happened to me.
"Ah fuck Dave Mustard Stain and RIP old school Anthrax!! Fuck!" I completely lost it at that part.
I. LIKE. HIS. KREATOR. SHIRT.
Me to, i want it!
Me too, I need it!
When you have NO Metalhead friends. I cry every day
So, going mainstream means you can drive a nice car and you can fly with an airplane? I am not going to stop listening to Doom Metal just for some pointless souless hardware. My Dying Bride rules above all!
The Line of Epic Heroes nah just mosh the car shop to death
I love that Fade to Black plays throughout video
Dave mustard stain rip old school anthrax
once a metalhead always a metalhead !!!! true story !
this is actually happening to me...
ts called growing up
+A Sloth Nope....my friend is the one who is going mainstream, not me
Still called growing up.
+Natdaprat since when going from metalhead to mainstream is called gorwing up ??
obviously your mind expands . thats the whole point in growing up.
2:46 love the metallica fade to black and trough out the whole video
These videos are getting better and better. Keep it coming guys!
Did I hear Dave Mustard Stain at the end?
Yes! Hahah. He said "Fuck Dave Mustard Stain, and RIP old Anthrax!"
My 14yr old nephew has gone from listening to mumble rappers like Lil' Yachty to Heavy Metal music like Thy Art Is Murder, Suicide Silence and many others! 😎 \m/
I've been listening to Indie for a long time (The Smiths, Bastille, etc.)
Now I'm getting into Metal
I cant stress this enough, I hate it when my friends move away from metal for fucking mainstream music.
It doesn't make me anymore open minded
"So, wearing the battle jacket, eh?"
Your Canadianness is showing
chris let me be ur fangirl adopt me

In the name of the holly bacon I adopt you
+Devrim Odabaşı hahaha her yerdeyiz
This reminds me a lot of how I've been listening to a lot more punk these days, while still enjoying metal. Sometimes, people's tastes expand.
My taste has hugely expanded into almost any Metal subgenre. Before that I was mostly into Extreme Metal.
+Francisco Javier metalhead is someone who metal is his passion and his life style someone who listen sometime to metal is not a metalhead
i listen to metal aswell as punk, some emocore, classic rock, miami bass, even some rap and many more. but i absolutely HATE this stupid illiterate ass sexist talentless nicky minage kanye west eminem lil wayne and so on crap. and what pisses me of is when their retarted listeners try to tell me rock is not music or "you have long hair? you must have beem living under a ROCK hihihi go back to 70s or 90s or whatever..." damn i wish i could. my Generation is soooo cringy. and what i hate even more is when people who usually listen to good music start listening to such garbage. i am NOT tolerating intolerance.
ddorfpunk1 234 Popular music is the worst today.
RanterInShades Yeah true. I've gone from liking metal and classic rock only to adding bits of pop, rap, country and also loving EDM. What's even cooler about the last one is that there are artists/producers that are also metalheads, sometimes it's so obvious, it's in your face like with Excision for example. Heavy music + fanbase name Headbangers + destructive bass levels in concerts + having anthems that require an *elevated existence* to enjoy = metalhead.
ka-haki
someone watches TPB
or its weird canada-talk
both!
get the gang on TPB season 11, maybe? ;^)
Dan-da-land Lmao.
I love ricky man. This video is hilarious
.
You know it's a sad video when you hear the piano version of fade to mainstream
This is too emotional I’m tearing up
this dude i knew that helped me get into slam suddenly started listening to rap and got himself a bowl-cut.... wtf?!
Happyist fucks a bowl cut?
^yupp..
Happyist he's probably going through a midlife crisis
jenny tehlia lol midlife crisis at 17?
Happyist Maybe something bad happened in his life or something and to avoid killing himself he did a 360 and completely changed his personality and likes just to avoid realizing how sad he really is
It happened to 2 of my friends and it's pretty sad
What's wrong with The Smiths lmao
oh yeah I remember
MORRISSEY
So...metalheads can't listen to other styles of music? Well, fuck.
thats the joke!
It gotta be *music*
Metal is til death. You can like other types of music, you just can't say "I used to be into metal". Because it means you never were into it, it was just a phase.
+Paradigm _sh1ft lol.. I listen to metal and rap ;)
What's your point? ;)
"J.Cole, I've never heard of those shoes before" :'D haha!
Really Liked this video. I also liked the use of Fade to Black, very fitting.
"Where did I park? Oh yea behind the pole!" *approaches stolen shopping cart* fucking love you guys!
We can all agree Spotify is reasonable for Metal, cause it's free.
wait WTF! i feel like the moral of the story is stop being metal or you'll be a loser 😢
The ending is supposed to be ambiguous on who the loser actually is.. Maybe both are the loser? Maybe you're the loser for even watching the video? Maybe I'm the loser for making it, who knows!
Car puzzle is the loser for not being in it
She Died Yesterday you get it
She Died Yesterday Thats exactly the point lmao
Šimon Bedan fuck you I'm insane
two videos... and I'm subscribing. this guy is hilarious
"Man how the fuck do you even listen to music out of an apple"
subbed lol
When he first said "eh?", I imagined they were Canadian.
Then they talked about Annihilator, and I was sure they're Canadian.
this is even better than Jared dines
Jared Dines is the Ali-A of the Metal community
Yeet Yeyehe Jared Dines is a doucher.
Nick Whitman noooooooo he did not hit you shoish
This was pretty touching. I'll go out and lay a tear
That piano fade to black made this video so much better
"get in your cab and go to hot topic " 😂😂
The apple joke was sick xD
First video I've seen with these guys. After 2 min. I've liked, subscribed and commented. Real humour :))
This was beautiful, thank you
Chris reminds me of Ricky if Ricky was a metalhead
haha that's what I was thinking he sounds a lot like Ricky when he mispronounces stuff
You are 100% correct
I think he looks like Screech from Saved by the Bell if he would have grown his hair long
I mean Ricky is in to helix if you want to count that
It happened the same to me lol, and that friend was even more heavier than me
That fade to black in the background was well placed haha
This is too relatable. I still listen to metal 95% of the time but I'm dressing like a regular human and I get this all the time.
"Are you still in this band?" *fade to black plays* LOL!
I had a friend like this
from slipknot and of mice and men to 21 pilots and imagine dragons
:’(((
'Nah it's okay. I'll get it from H&M'. *background music plays* 😂😂😂😂
"Man, how the fuck do you even listen to music out of an apple?"
That shit killed me. RIP me.
Dope kreator shirt Chris
R.I.P. old anthrax best part haha. despite how i really liked for all kingd
I'm a huge modern heavy metal dude but every single time I watch a jhoff video I just want to listen to Havok for the rest of the day.
Lamb of God \m/ One of the best live performances.
