Comment on What do all the subgenres of music mean? How does anyone make sense of them?
rumschlumpel@feddit.org 5 days agoWhat makes Death Metal different than Black Metal? They sound the same.
Nah. I’m not even a big metal fan and unless a band is blending the genres (“blackened death” etc.) they’re pretty distinct, the vocal style in particular should be pretty easy to tell apart. As a rule of thumb, Black Metal vocalists croak, Death Metal vocalists growl.

As a metalhead, metal subgenres are fucking exhausting. I don’t know how to describe bands I like without sounding like a fucking douche.
