I still don't understand the weird ass animosity between Punk and Metal in the subsets of the internet. They're both my favorite genres within my all time favorite genre(Rock), they've both inspired one another, they've both have had their low points and high points in history, and they both have annoying fucking fans.

I don't understand how you can like metal and hate punk or vice versa.

that's the internet. it's actually probably cooler to wear a metal shirt at a punk show than a punk shirt. last punk/hc all dayer i was at, a good third of the bands were musically indistinguishable from metal bands (and i don't mean faggy nu-metalcore or whatever it is that involves straightened hair, recycled maiden riffs and synchronised axe gymnastics) and everyone's favourite guy was this viking looking dude double fisting beers in a pantera shirt.

i mean deathwish are generally where hardcore bands go to make it big, and check out their roster: http://www.deathwishinc.com/bands whole bunch of metal on there.

i'm talking the modern expanded punk scene though, if you mean crusties who haven't evolved their idea of punk since 1979, well, who gives a fuck about them?

If you're dissing crust punk ima cut you

I prefer that older melodic metal, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying Slayer and similar bands. Can't get into cookie monster vocals tho

punk losers are poor and work graveyard shifts to feed their illegitimate children or pay child support, while metal spergs live at home and spend all day categorizing EPs, never knowing the touch of a woman. These two groups are always going to battle.

Most of the time I just end up confusing genres and look like an asshole. Not even trying to hate on 'em either just like "oh hey what's this?" ____ punk, ___ metal. I can't keep up.

that's what i meant by my internet snark earlier. if your music experience is coming purely from your own bedroom, there's a temptation there to start trying to super studious about it on a musical level to somehow elevate your connection to it. where the real connection should come from getting your tooth chipped on the mic in the middle of some gang vocal pile on.

probably why electronic music is the worst for those types.

I love electronic and I can't stand the "THIS ISN'T TRANCE IT'S HOUSE HOW DARE YOU."

Fuck off.

Bwahahaha

Also some of you hos need to listen to Baroness if you like melody.

[fistfulofmetal]

They only have 1 good album, The Red Album. Everything else they've done is completely terrible.

[Shadow Mod]

YOU should listen to Reverend Bizarre.

Cool thanks for the rec.

[nudemacusers]

Anyone else a fan of Kittie?

[fistfulofmetal]

I remember when people were saying Baroness was gonna replace Mastodon.


So much for that.

[Rufus]

Jimmies. Rustled. >:C

[D3RANG3D]

Mastodon sucks so who cares?

Liked so I can unlike.

FFS, if you have your distortion set at 10.... it's probably metal. All these sub genre label are the works of a special fellow.

Ew:

Suffocation - Breeding the Spawn
Enslaved - Path to Vanir
EVERYTHING BY MASTADON

As you can tell I have a thing for slower songs, melodic metal but the swing shit is

[fistfulofmetal]

Surprised Wrath hasn't repped Uncle Acid.






I absolutely love early Ensiferum until Jari left the band and started Wintersun and took all the talent with him. His vocals are fantastic, he can sing clean and also deliver some of the most impressive harsh vocals around. A true musical craftsman.



the break around 4:24 is my favorite part of the song.

[fistfulofmetal]

Might as well rep Wintersun while I'm at it.







That opening
