True, I reallllly fucking hate Slipknot, if non-metal head sees me and we speak about music, that's the first thing they assume I listen, fuuuuukkkkkkk!!!

@@mikoajnierada7857 Eh, what?! That doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

The thing with young metalheads being elitists is so true. Every old metalhead I know is such a sweetheart, while the some people who are in their 20s are just insufferable. I was at a death metal show lately and there were two dudes behind me, who always made mean comments about people's battle vests and made fun of the support band.
I was a more elitist person as a whole when I listened to anime metal than now where I'm chill and listen to prog and jazz fusion 😂😂😂 Teenagers are like that.
Worst interaction I had was when I was out partying one weekend. I was wearing an Iron Maiden hoodie and happened to walk by a group of metalheads. One of them, wearing nothing but a Pig Destroyer shirt (of course wearing nothing but a shirt in the middle of winter makes you fucking BRÜTAL) yelled „stop listening to pussy metal and listen to some real grindcore“ then proceeded to squeal like a pig.
Metalheads have a lot of energy, only when they are drunk or in Latin America or similar. The standard concert in Europe is metalheads with their arms crossed saying "wow, what a brutal concert" while blinking in approval.
Not all latin America, metalheads in Uruguay are just as chill (*ahem*boring*ahem*) as in Europe or even more. Central South America and up are more chaotic (not just metalheads) and American metalheads are somewhere in the middle.

Almost 45yo metalhead, and I listen metal because I am listening the metal stuff for over the past 25years. And sometime, I listen other styles of music.
Haha so true. When we were teens I knew a dude that had just bought a new Billy Joel box set and when his buddy stopped over he quickly grabbed it and threw it under his bed so his buddy wouldn't catch him listening to Billy Joel, lol. I read that when we are young we put so much stock into things like music because we dont have enough life experience to really have an identity past superficial things like music and other interests so we define our entire identity using those. I'm glad most of us grow out of that because there is so much good music out there. Buddy Holly is one of my favorite musicians of all time and there are times when my iTunes will go from him to Cryptopsy, haha. Good tunes is good tunes!
I was born a Metal Head. I just didn't know it until my uncle was playing Black Sabbath's first album "Black Sabbath". That was in 1970 when the album was released; I was three years old. I vaguely remember jumping around to Black Sabbath at that age in my uncle's house. My family would tell me about the day I heard Black Sabbath the first time and that I was hooked. Growing up, I was all about Metal in all it's forms. Although I do listen to Classical music among other genres; Punk, Grunge, Hard Rock, Humor Core, Shock Rock, Grind Core, etc., etc.. Even Country (Pre 1995. after that it went too pop and no longer had real meaning). I do enjoy Classical because a lot of Metal is Classically inspired. I have been to countless concerts. I have watched bands grow from their infancy at clubs, events, back yard parties, and even from their garages. I have listened to, watched, met and even hung out with so many that I could not even begin to list them all. There were so many great bands that were never signed or even put out a self release. I wish I had all their music in my collection as well. The 80's was nuts. I am now 57 years old. To this day, when it comes down to my primary musical tastes, I look at it like this... When I turn on my music, if it causes everyone within earshot to cry, scream and run to cower in a corner or under a rock, then that is my kind of music... The heavier, the better.
0:55 Honestly...after listening to many many genres really metal is the only one that I find myself enjoying. Everything annoys me a lot, but I can get over it if it's played somewhere, it's that I'm not gonna enjoy it
Agreed, there are good stuff from almost all genre of music ( except Hick Hop, that is country rap ). There is some absolute crap from all genres because the "artists" don't know what they are doing/just there for the money, the chicks, whatever. There are great manufactured band and crap manufactured bands. Examples of good:- The monkees, around before I was born, and Babymetal, don't dump on Babymetal. Bad:- anything that came out of the "reality TV" shows like the voice, America/Britain/Australia got talent ( they didn't ).
If you find other music that's as good as metal, then it's metal, too. That's what all that rockabilly, blues, symphonic, "world", '70s hard rock, '60s psychedelic, '80s New Wave, hardcore punk, industrial, goth rock, and other "non-metal" music is doing in my playlist: it's all metal to me!
I would have to agree. It's usually more complex and complicated to play than any other genre. Plus the vocalists who can do amazing cleans and top tier growls like Tatiana and Corey taylor
22y old metalhead, grew more and more into the big metal world since I was like 12 or smth. It began with folk metal because since then I am also a big fan of all medieval things. All I can say is that metal take my bad emotions away and I feel nice again. And yes I'm nice and will always guide you to the museum ❤😂 (Sorry for mistakes, I am originally german)
My only regret, now that I'm disabled, is that I can't mosh anymore, and yes I miss it! 😢 I can only hope that somewhere out there, someone is still doing the Twist Mosh! 🤘😝 (Literally doing the twist WHILST moshing. Best workout you'll ever have, tones EVERYTHING! Thighs, bum, waist the LOT!) ❤
Yep, I was a punk kid in high school, joined the army and deployed after college, and now I am a metalhead who blasts his music every opportunity possible. I am gonna be deaf by age 40 lmao
I definitely regret blasting music near full volume in my earphones 😂 teenage me didn't care I just wanted slipknot korn mudvayne ect at full blast. So now when I listen to slaughter to prevail it's on a big party speaker
I personally got in to listening to metal because I really liked the genre and everything related to it. Before that I was listening to everything that I can, but after I started hearing some metal songs or other heavy genre's songs, it finally clicked with me that this is the genre that I was looking for. And since then this was and still is my go to genre of music. Exception been soundtrack made specifically for the movies or video games. And if I like them, I add them to my playlist. p.s - I understand this video was made just for $hits and giggles but I decided to leave info on why I like this genre on music anyway.
finally got my Durbatuluk patch the other day, one step closer to turning my m65 jacket into a full blown battlejacket. gotta say im hella happy with the purchase tho, good stuff.
I can say that metal is the best because when I was discovering it I quite literally went through, clears throat, classic pop, rap, underground music, singer-songwriters, so called alternative music, classic rock a close second, boy bands, top 40, punk rock, pop punk, most of the cores, new metal, thrash metal, speed metal, power metal, death metal, a bit of techno, dance new wave, hard rock, classic country, southern pop, and finally classic metal where I came firmly to rest. Actually I keep bouncing back and forth between power metal and classic metal recently.
Spot on😄👌 There was a time in sports broadcasting (especially football, a.k.a. soccer) where in every moment of pause, there had to be commercial for German beer. Krombacher: Eine Perle der Natur 💧🏔️
@@Farvann Krombacher, Warsteiner, Franziskaner, Haseröder, Bitburger (Bitte ein bit). All German Pilsener (Pilsner, Pils, "Premium" Pils) style lagers. Of course, I know all of them thanks to TV commercials. At the beginning and durring the live broadcast. Krombacher was a sponsor to RTL's Formula One (Formel Eins) live events.
@@Farvann Before the cable became common in former WARPAC countries, the only way to watch foreign TV was trough use of satellite dish. Cool, I can watch a lot of things. Let's see. Rai Uno (Italian) is showing Crimson Tide. Eh? What's wrong with the crew of USS Montana?? No, they didn't... ... but they did. They dubbed the film in Italian!😳 Let me see RTL (Radio Télévision Luxembourg, German speaking channels). Here, Charlie Sheen is arguing with Kristy Swanson (The Chase) in German!😵 The tv channels are treating movies like Saturday morning cartoons! Dubbing over works (movies and TV series) into the country's official language!!🤯 In Warsaw Pact region, foreign movies (bootleg copies on TV) were ALVAYS subtitled. All movies and shows were broadcasted in their respected countries of production. American stuff is in English, French in French, Italian in Italian, German in German, Russian in Russian, etc. That was my only culture shock in life!😆
I died of laughter the entire way through this because they are all me, every single one of these is me. And every other metalhead I know. Deaf, overexcited, beer drinking friendly friends who just want to explain the entire history of their favourite bands to anyone in their path.
I struggle every day during the Easter: I have a dbbl disk prolapse in my neck, So I really shouldn't headbang...but I'm (as always) volunteering at Inferno Metalfestival in Oslo...😅 Headbanging just happens subconsciously 😅
Or, at least if it's in a language you understand well enough, to get a general idea of what the song is about, even if the lyrics are mostly indecipherable. After listening to a half-dozen songs from the same unfamiliar subgenre, you can generally pick up on running themes for that subgenre well enough to have a vague idea of what is going on: "Oh, I see - this doom metal thing is all about the pain, the suffering, the misery, the dread and despair! And thrash metal is usually critical of government and religion, and all it takes is a glance at all the baphomets, crosses, and pentagrams all over a black metal album cover to guess that the songs are all about puppies and flowers and a nice Sunday in church!"
I agree with most of those, and am guilty of many of those stereotypes. The one thing I would argue is most metal heads not only listen to other kinds of music, they have BETTER tastes in other kinds of music! Metal fans are music fanatics first, metal is the gateway to this, and we tend to enjoy some of the better 90s stuff like Portishead or Mazzy Star, weird avante garde shit like the Goblin soundtrack and Tangerine Dream, and folk music like Sandy Denny and Townes Van Zandt. Also non-metal made by metal heads is almost always top notch, be it mid-era Ulver, This Empty Flow, or Opeth's Damnation...what was that about metal heads explaining things again?
I think there's a Trvu Metal Stereotype they forgot about metalheads arguing over EVERYTHING, and I want to disagree with you, but... well, damn it, I've got most of the same stuff in my music collection, Portishead, Mazzy Starr, Goblin soundtracks, Tangerine Dream, Ulver.... So, let's just pretend I'm saying "Dude, Opeth isn't metal!" or something :D
"metalheads have a lot of energy, are friendly but socially awkward, and can't hear you" Me, an awkward extrovert with ADHD who literally can't sit through anything, has serious auditory processing issues aka perfect hearing but can't understand without subtitles: oops
Well, I don't drink, I don't know anyone else who likes my style of music, my hearings fine because I don't go to concerts & I like metal because my friend got me into Nickelback & Seether when I was 10, but I ended up liking Nightwish more...
15 year old me: I like metal because it's so dark and my soul is so dark 20 year old me: I like metal because it's so loud and I have so much energy to spend and I need to jump and scream and headbang 33 year old me: I like metal because it's comforting. I'm used to it. Other genres are confusing.
2:11 this one is actually true, most of the time I hate other metal heads because they are either really toxic, have really bad takes on metal and other genres of music, or they like black metal or cannibal corpse
Metal has taught me that headbanging is the only proper way to enjoy any genre possible.
Me headbanging to Giles Corey

finally got my Durbatuluk patch the other day, one step closer to turning my m65 jacket into a full blown battlejacket. gotta say im hella happy with the purchase tho, good stuff.
That wallpaper is NICE, Yo!
I can say that metal is the best because when I was discovering it I quite literally went through, clears throat, classic pop, rap, underground music, singer-songwriters, so called alternative music, classic rock a close second, boy bands, top 40, punk rock, pop punk, most of the cores, new metal, thrash metal, speed metal, power metal, death metal, a bit of techno, dance new wave, hard rock, classic country, southern pop, and finally classic metal where I came firmly to rest. Actually I keep bouncing back and forth between power metal and classic metal recently.
Metalheads are closeminded about how open minded they are.
Spot on😄👌
There was a time in sports broadcasting (especially football, a.k.a. soccer) where in every moment of pause, there had to be commercial for German beer.
Krombacher: Eine Perle der Natur 💧🏔️
@@Farvann Krombacher, Warsteiner, Franziskaner, Haseröder, Bitburger (Bitte ein bit). All German Pilsener (Pilsner, Pils, "Premium" Pils) style lagers. Of course, I know all of them thanks to TV commercials. At the beginning and durring the live broadcast. Krombacher was a sponsor to RTL's Formula One (Formel Eins) live events.
@@Farvann Before the cable became common in former WARPAC countries, the only way to watch foreign TV was trough use of satellite dish. Cool, I can watch a lot of things. Let's see. Rai Uno (Italian) is showing Crimson Tide. Eh? What's wrong with the crew of USS Montana?? No, they didn't... ... but they did. They dubbed the film in Italian!😳
Let me see RTL (Radio Télévision Luxembourg, German speaking channels). Here, Charlie Sheen is arguing with Kristy Swanson (The Chase) in German!😵
The tv channels are treating movies like Saturday morning cartoons! Dubbing over works (movies and TV series) into the country's official language!!🤯
In Warsaw Pact region, foreign movies (bootleg copies on TV) were ALVAYS subtitled. All movies and shows were broadcasted in their respected countries of production. American stuff is in English, French in French, Italian in Italian, German in German, Russian in Russian, etc. That was my only culture shock in life!😆
Gotta support them metal bands
Bought all of Forest Streams albums even if they only have two.
>Metalheads have a little too much energy
punk-hardcore mosher: finally a worthy opponent
As a jazz musician and metalhead I can 100% agree on this😂
"old cannibal corpse"
The newer stuff is their best. A skeletal domain is top tier album
Meanwhile, I listen to metal because this is good sh■t.
Right as I was saying that Surf Rock is superior in the Discord. Coincidence? Well yeah, but it's true!
That twist ending got me
"Metalheads are cringe." - true.
I died of laughter the entire way through this because they are all me, every single one of these is me. And every other metalhead I know. Deaf, overexcited, beer drinking friendly friends who just want to explain the entire history of their favourite bands to anyone in their path.
3:37 hell yes, my brother
The tinnitus was hilarious and true... and sad.
3:37 I think the same as the 31yr old guy and I'm only 21, guess I'm not young anymore
Same
I struggle every day during the Easter:
I have a dbbl disk prolapse in my neck, So I really shouldn't headbang...but I'm (as always) volunteering at Inferno Metalfestival in Oslo...😅
Headbanging just happens subconsciously 😅
I was born with a hearing defect. Metal and I belong together 😂
after listening to the same song like 666.666 times is impossible to not learn by memory the lyrics even if its screamo
Or, at least if it's in a language you understand well enough, to get a general idea of what the song is about, even if the lyrics are mostly indecipherable.
After listening to a half-dozen songs from the same unfamiliar subgenre, you can generally pick up on running themes for that subgenre well enough to have a vague idea of what is going on: "Oh, I see - this doom metal thing is all about the pain, the suffering, the misery, the dread and despair! And thrash metal is usually critical of government and religion, and all it takes is a glance at all the baphomets, crosses, and pentagrams all over a black metal album cover to guess that the songs are all about puppies and flowers and a nice Sunday in church!"
@@pietrayday9915 generally each genre has its lyrics topics, but there are exceptions as always
Worst thing about metal.... Fanbase
Best thing about metal... also the fanbase.
What is the song at 2:52?
Darude - Sandstorm
The counting pennies for merch and festivals is too real.
I agree with most of those, and am guilty of many of those stereotypes. The one thing I would argue is most metal heads not only listen to other kinds of music, they have BETTER tastes in other kinds of music! Metal fans are music fanatics first, metal is the gateway to this, and we tend to enjoy some of the better 90s stuff like Portishead or Mazzy Star, weird avante garde shit like the Goblin soundtrack and Tangerine Dream, and folk music like Sandy Denny and Townes Van Zandt.
Also non-metal made by metal heads is almost always top notch, be it mid-era Ulver, This Empty Flow, or Opeth's Damnation...what was that about metal heads explaining things again?
I think there's a Trvu Metal Stereotype they forgot about metalheads arguing over EVERYTHING, and I want to disagree with you, but... well, damn it, I've got most of the same stuff in my music collection, Portishead, Mazzy Starr, Goblin soundtracks, Tangerine Dream, Ulver.... So, let's just pretend I'm saying "Dude, Opeth isn't metal!" or something :D
"metalheads have a lot of energy, are friendly but socially awkward, and can't hear you"
Me, an awkward extrovert with ADHD who literally can't sit through anything, has serious auditory processing issues aka perfect hearing but can't understand without subtitles: oops
The secret though, all genres are equal, but not all genres of concert are equal.
I am a young metalhead but i still listen to funk, classic, jazz and rock
Well, I don't drink, I don't know anyone else who likes my style of music, my hearings fine because I don't go to concerts & I like metal because my friend got me into Nickelback & Seether when I was 10, but I ended up liking Nightwish more...
Thats supports typ went true and gloriously at 90s😂
I agree with the non-elitist metalhead except I love Babymetal 😘
Yeah so do I. Even got into Vocametal recently (basically vocaloid and metal)
Give Me Chocolate!!!!

Niemand redet darüber das in dem Kühlschrank einfach ne leere Pulle Krombacher steht 😂
2:31 the truest thing i've ever seen
Spot on. I fit all of those stereotypes. 🤘🤘
The only thing I agree Metalheads are socially awkward.
15 year old me: I like metal because it's so dark and my soul is so dark
20 year old me: I like metal because it's so loud and I have so much energy to spend and I need to jump and scream and headbang
33 year old me: I like metal because it's comforting. I'm used to it. Other genres are confusing.
0:26 isnt KoRn considered Nu Metal?
The thing about knoing the lyrics, I know every word in every Lorna Shore song, and Slaughter to Prevail, and way more... I feel targeted...
You know Russian lyrics?
@@williamhutton2126 most of them
@@UnholyFox That's actually impressive. It takes me a while to learn lyrics in my native tongue.
2:11 this one is actually true, most of the time I hate other metal heads because they are either really toxic, have really bad takes on metal and other genres of music, or they like black metal or cannibal corpse
Black metal is the only good gerne in metal with dungeon synth that is,🌜
Poor Kitty 😶 We have always two beer crates (almost full) and a 6l beer barrle at hand ...just in case the hord is coming arround 🤣
ALL stereotypes are based on truth. That's why people get upset. They can't handle the truth.
Hey one day these touring posters on the wall will be worth something. So metal is an investment.
As a person who listens to metal, can confirm everything listed is absolute fact
