Anyone who shares my view post here.

The thing about metal is, if you don't get it the first time then you won't at all. Metal becomes more than just music to its fans, it becomes a way of life. Metal isn't mainstream and neither are the people who listen to it and live it. Metal is usually a release for people and helps them relax and not worry about their jobs, school and all their problems and most of the time it helps them through it. It's for people who like it hard, fast and heavy. Metal is always there when you need it and when your metal, you always have friends even when your real friends aren't there.

Too bad you don't know what you're talking about. Metal is as mainstream as anything, and you pretense emo/metal-fargs need to get that. If you even TRY to call yourself not-mainstream, you're just showing everyone how pretense you are.

Personally I find SOME metal relaxing, mostly because it pumps me up in a way that most other music doesn't. I like bands that aren't too serious with themselves.

And yes, I used to wear make-up and run around with a leathercoat being the shit and standing out from the crowd. I know what you are. If you start opening up to other cultures and other peoples views, you'll live a richer and definitely less bitter life. I know how it is.

What wise words

Full agree, i dont started directly with metal.

I first listened linkin park, sum41, then gone to soad, then disturbed, and then slipknot and others

:3
i started to listen to metal the same way, but i listen to: slipknot, in flames. i also listen to wu-tang clan, chad muska beats and i listen to some hardstyle music...>.< well, metal is sometimes good and sometimes just... no... >.<

Or maybe your lonely, so you go into Metal looking for these friends that aren't there.

Really, It's a bunch of people screaming in your ear about how shit their life is. About how they were abused as a child and got jailed and blah blah blah.

Bunch of crap.

IMO

thats death metal, or screamo. metal actually means something, besides sex, rapings, shootings, and drive-bys that rap is about. listen to some korn, the old metallica, system of a down(best metal/alternative ever) just listen to the lyrics. metal makes me relax!

Or the imagined insanity and hatred, murder, sex, rapings, and shootings that a lot of metal is about.

Try not to make generalizations like that. They don't work.
