Bruh, your brand of humor is classic. I thought at first you were going to tear into some strangers battle vest but you delivered gold on this one. Btw your battle vest is pretty dope.
Some of the “fake” or bootleg patches look ridiculously bad, but bands that aren’t around anymore and aren’t making and selling patches - I don’t have a problem with buying a patch (if it looks good) from someone who made it out of love for the band.
Its interesting to see you say with pride that a patch was bought from a band. I'm used to punks, including myself, say bragging that they made their patches.
Making patches for yourself is awesome, especially if you can’t find patches for a band anywhere. It shows dedication and gets the band’s name on something without them having to make it and sell it. My pride in buying direct from a band is a lesser pride in just knowing that I supported a band directly, albeit it in a small way. I don’t think I have the skill to put together my own patches unless I just Sharpie the band name onto some fabric lol I haven’t rewatched this video in a while, so if I said anything that sounds like I’m pooping on self-made patches, what I should have said is nothing against making a patch for your own use, I’m more wary of bootlegs that are passed off as official merch (which I admit, I’ve been guilty of resorting to up to and including this vest/jacket/thing)
Same here I started with metal then got introduced to the local scene which is a mostly crust punk. Sometimes we got like weird folk music or just synth because we only really got one venue for alt music. So seeing the culture of punks instead of metal was very eye opening. I can barely go to metal concerts anymore. The intenstiy of small punk shows is the best.
I've been there bruh. My first battle jacket is pleb city. It's why I tell people to wait a while to develop their taste before making a jacket, either wise you will regret it.
fun fact: my parents abuse the fact call things that have patches on them "battle vests" or "battle jackets" or "battle pants" and theyre like "jUsT cALl it a JaCKet or thOSe ArE bOnDAgE pAntS" my disappointment is always immense and my life (has already been) ruined
I am so sorry 😞 And I’m even more sorry for not liking thrash, believe me I have tried! I like seeing thrash at live shows and I like thrash fans, I just can’t sit through albums. I guess it’s a genre where I need to be moving around to enjoy it. 🤷
i have no idea why but your type of humor is so funny to me- like a few times throughout this video i probably died laughing just bc of stupid stuff you said 😭😂
I feel like a lonely soul because I have Alice n chains battle vest I have yet to see another one .... maybe I should of made a battle flannel? ..LOL great video \m/
I'm looking at doing a battle vest myself which I'm wanting a Giant Lovebites patch on the back as the centerpiece of it, but I can't find one I can only find one of the smaller ones :(
All part of the journey man. I have a diverse taste in music and my vest reflects that. I see them live, they go on the vest. I’ve got Blue October next to Behemoth next to Ghost and Breaking Benjamin. Shoot, I might throw The Beach Boys in there too if I wind up going. I’ll be a sight in my battle jacket surrounded by the nursing home.
It amuses me that you have a Mushroomhead patch @ 9:35 on your vest! I have a Mushroomhead patch in the front of my Battle vest I've started working on since the beginning of 2022! Still got more patches I need to get to cover up all the empty spaces of my first battle vest.
immolation and slipknot on the same battlevest is like sewing a burger from a locally owned and renowned steakhouse onto your vest and then eating it and shitting it out and rubbing it all over it the vest and letting it dry out in the sun.
I don’t know why but I had a dream where this vest was some big metal musicians vest and he was exposed as a poser and this video came out and it was crazy 💀
@@Jake.k400 Because back then, when Slipknot started, the nu metal kids who listened to them had a completely different style than metalheads and would have called you cheesy for even wearing a patch vest. And the metalheads who wore em wouldn't be caught dead listening to Slipknot. Plus, it was extremely rare to see a patch vest at all unless you were at really underground shows or festivals. Even then, metalheads my age at the time were very rare
on the poseur-meter this jacket gets a high mark. Slipknot makes it an automatic 10….. points could be deducted for the 2 good bands you have on there (Immolation & Mayhem) but you don’t listen to either… so you get a 9.5/10 for wimp & poseur (and for pronouncing Crytopsy like Joe Biden)
@@TheAverageMetalPoser Man, I had this huge feeling I saw your name somewhere before when it popped up. XD Been thinking of getting back into working on a metal vest for the first time since I was 12 and your vid was motivating. I appreciate the humor and relaxed discussion that went on throughout the video.
Dude, you have a asking Alexandria poster on your wall. You have no business in talking metal or cutoffs. Also on speaking of cut offs. It's metal to put whatever you are into, onto your vest, there is no shame. Metal is to be yourself and f everyone else's opinions. If your down with metal, throw up metal patches, if you like my little pony, throw it up. But stay true to your sh!t, that and only that is metal. But def not asking Alexandria hahaha
I'm the same kind of metal listener. I don't listen to metal as much at home, at work, cycling, or in the car. I still do go to a few metal shows a year and have been to 6 or 7 Ozzfests as well as several other rock/metal fest. At home I mostly watch shows or put on house/experimental music if I'm working on errands or projects I wanna focus on. At work I mostly listen to classic rock. In the car I mostly listen to trap/rap. I like to listen to trip hop and vinylist when I'm cycling or working out. I enjoy a lot of live music though from bluegrass to death metal. I do prefer more lowkey local punk and metal shows over going to big vendors and overpaying for a band that's usually already dated to the underground by the time they hit the mainstream. Even though I did pay $100 for a Tool ticket that was a great experience but not worth the money for me to do again. KoRn is coming to town and my friend got two tickets for $125 a piece that he can't find anyone to buy the other ticket to go with.

yeah he had me on that one also. good vid

Word. Some bands don’t even have their own patches. I’m of the opinion that fan made patches, particularly unique ones, are showing love.
ich seh das auch so

Love that Maiden back patch. I made egg salad a few days ago.
Such a great feeling to catch a guitar pick. I caught a pick from one of Death Angel's guitarists and it was awesome.
I've been there bruh. My first battle jacket is pleb city. It's why I tell people to wait a while to develop their taste before making a jacket, either wise you will regret it.
first video i've found of yours, but had to say i legit love it. feels like hanging out with a friend jokin on metal shit and i love it. \m/

Just checked out your channel, you got some well made videos dude. I wish ya luck with your channel it definitely deserves more subs \m/
Thank you so much! It’s mainly just for fun, but I enjoy trying to improve a little bit each time 🤘
Love the laszlo poster in the background

An Alice In Chains battle vest and battle flannel both sound awesome! 🤘
I want to see
I dont buy into the "you have to see the band live to wear the patch" if you love the band you can wear it

So I’m curious, What was the punk rock NBA video you mentioned at 0:12?
m.ruclips.net/video/bPvTaHh7v8I/видео.html
@@TheAverageMetalPoser cheers dude!
Hell yeah! 🍻
just got this video recommended to me and it was real funny i’m suprised you don’t have more subscribers
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! 🤘
I enjoy the humor & the honesty. Truly no “F’s” given. Oh fuck I’m your 69 subscriber?
N I C E !
That asking alexandria poster tho...
It’s the wife’s
the only """"problem"""" i have with your vest is the sewing, it looks amazing hahaha
Haha, thank you, maybe one day my sewing game will improve! 🪡🤘
This video in insultingly funny in places. Very nicely made, dude.
My vest got a mixture of everything punk rock thrash death black metal
I forget what band IT Was but they had a song called full metal jacket about exactly this.
How did you learn to sew? Any references?
Cool vest btw 😃🤘
It amuses me that you have a Mushroomhead patch @ 9:35 on your vest! I have a Mushroomhead patch in the front of my Battle vest I've started working on since the beginning of 2022! Still got more patches I need to get to cover up all the empty spaces of my first battle vest.
Hell yeah, I hope you have fun making it! 🤘🫡
My vest is all motorcycle stuff and six Motörhead patches. 1 generic patch that just says death metal
what kinda thread did you use to sew looks cool
@@OpossumKing138 Thanks, it’s sinew.
The amon amarth phase is so real
immolation and slipknot on the same battlevest is like sewing a burger from a locally owned and renowned steakhouse onto your vest and then eating it and shitting it out and rubbing it all over it the vest and letting it dry out in the sun.
That sounds like a wonderful Devin Townsend concept album 💿
The sewing on the warbringer patch😂🤣
Truly, my greatest artistic work to date 🖼️
That’s the joy of sowing for metal, if you mess up, it just looks more metal.
Definitely add a patch of a handful of m&ms to the Megadeath patch.
the nadja and laszlo poster ,yesss!!
Your sewing is... different 😊
Hey hey you ironed the Maiden back patch because it's "Iron" Maiden, see what I did there😆 incidentally Iron Maiden are my number ONE band🤘
lmaoo can't name the band, I'm going to shoot myself in the head if I keep laughing this hard fucks sake
Haha, there might be other steps you can take to stop laughing before that but idk I’m not a doctor 👨⚕️
Great video and killer vest 🤘 subscribed
My friend had a rad public enemy back patch he made
let's see your britney spears autograph collection
God I wish I had a Britney Spears autograph collection
I don’t know why but I had a dream where this vest was some big metal musicians vest and he was exposed as a poser and this video came out and it was crazy 💀
You may have had a premonition about the future, when all vest wearers will be poser exposed. 🦺
@@TheAverageMetalPoser ah! I see..
Most of my t-shirts and patches come from live shows, and I don't really listen to a lot of music at home, so...
the NYBM patch is from "black anvil".
And what a black anvil it is indeed 🔨
It's still weird to see Slipknot patches on vests
Why?

I love this jacket. I don’t know a single band on it. I’m going to make one exactly like it.
Nice battle!
Best band in the video was church of disgust!
Never heard of ‘em
I saw DT...I subscribe
Nice Church of Disgust hat.
😂😂😂 I dislike my vest I’ve had it since high school nothing wrong with the bands my taste has changed a lot I’m starting a new one
Did the suffocation patch dirty
One might say that I suffocated it.
Cool

Tbdm good
du mir geht es genauso ich höre fast nie musik aber eine jeansweste mit aufnähern drauf das muss schon sein :)
if u can pull off a joke with a straight face the punchline will literally beat the air out of my lungs
the beatles bit straight up murdered me btw 🪦
Bruv idk about that stuff bands i just think there cool

@@TheAverageMetalPoser I plan to start it soon. Just gotta get the right vest.

You called sabaton war metal?
No, they are not war metal, they are only the Sabaton of war metal. And if that makes sense, no it doesn’t
Exactly how many "battles" have you clowns been thru?
I once had to shit so hard on a plane, you and your cat have no idea
I'm the same kind of metal listener. I don't listen to metal as much at home, at work, cycling, or in the car.
I still do go to a few metal shows a year and have been to 6 or 7 Ozzfests as well as several other rock/metal fest.
At home I mostly watch shows or put on house/experimental music if I'm working on errands or projects I wanna focus on.
At work I mostly listen to classic rock. In the car I mostly listen to trap/rap. I like to listen to trip hop and vinylist when I'm cycling or working out.
I enjoy a lot of live music though from bluegrass to death metal. I do prefer more lowkey local punk and metal shows over going to big vendors and overpaying for a band that's usually already dated to the underground by the time they hit the mainstream.
Even though I did pay $100 for a Tool ticket that was a great experience but not worth the money for me to do again. KoRn is coming to town and my friend got two tickets for $125 a piece that he can't find anyone to buy the other ticket to go with.
