Y’all sound like everyone did about rock 20 years ago. In Flames is my favorite btw.

I like noise punk and shoegaze. I don't get metal. Like we get it you make big noisey but you got nothing to day beside harry potter stories

How about some blackgaze then? Alcest and Deafheaven are amazing.
Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 2 days ago
I’m all over backgaze/atmospheric black metal. Alcest is an entry level drug.
Checkout:
- A Different Cloud
- Sadness
- Old Graves - sadly small library
- Forrest of Shadows

I knew about Alcest, but will have a look at Deafheaven. Will give an hear, thanks.
Although I just recieved a guitar so I spend most of my time listening to my own music over and over

This meme makes me want to try more metal, and I think that makes me as bad as “the weeb”
I also drew direct comparisons to the electronic music subgenres.

prog purist here. Dream Theater? ewww

I was never really into prog, i like some songs, but i would have a hard time to name 10 prog bands. I had no idea dream theatre was even considered prog rock.

Classic / Dad
Especially ‘metal died after 1991’.
Derpenheim@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
Im either “The Dad” or “Its all metal”. I really dont give a shit. If I’m headbanging, its a bop

Goddamnit I have a song by Galneryus in the playlist™ I feel called out
underscores@lemmy.zip 2 days ago
Okay but as a guitarist, the guitarist from Galneryus is absolutely fucking insane.
I’ve known about them for a long time and they’ve evolved spectacularly.
Also, you’re either a music enjoyer or annoying snob. Do not be a snob.

I recommend Haunt. Eric Church can shred like a mofo

Okay can somebody explain the appeal of 4/4 to me?
xx3rawr@sh.itjust.works 1 day ago
It’s a perfect score
PotatoesFall@discuss.tchncs.de 1 day ago
Isn’t that just the “default” rhythm for most music?
outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago
But what’s appealing about it? What’s to like!?
BlueMagma@sh.itjust.works 1 day ago
I guess I would be closest to “the prog purist”, though I love power metal, and other subgenres too, so I could also be in the “it’s all metal” category.
This list seems to be incomplete, there are other metal fan archetypes
PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I feel like I’m “Its all metal” cause I don’t judge and will listen to a lot of it as long as I can understand the vocals. But I’ll lean more towards the classic stuff like early Sabbath and Dio (both rainbow, sabbath and solo) and if its more modern it just ends up being Iron Maiden (I still love The Final Frontier or Book Of Souls… which are 15 and 10 years old now… fuck me). No idea of any new artists after like 2000 lol. I don’t see myself here.

Why kind of metal is Hoobastank?
nocklobster@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Custard@lemmy.world 1 day ago

Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago

My cutoff is anything before the Black Album. So they've pretty much got me nailed- Classic Metal Purist.

I’ve been called out as the gatekeeper :( . Though I do occasionally delve into darker electronic genres like dark ambient or some DnB.
Join the rest of us gatekeepers, you know, unless you are a poser, or something: !thrashmetal@lemmy.world !heavymetal@lemmy.world
