I generally despise a typical metalhead, only a few can be considered as non-poseurs or cool kids. This musical genre is one of the most mainstream genre loved by upper-middle class "papi mami" kids, this genre has no message, shit lyrics, shit music, and shit vocals.
Message
-----------
It's very rare for a typical metal band such as Pantera, Slayer, Metallica, Opeth, and many others to have any standing message conveyed through all that shit acting they make. Now don't go telling me "But band X has a message!!!!", if so then let me guess it's either about:
- Death
- Death Romance (Ugh...)
- Love
- The System (not how to change it, but how to headbang to it),
- Wars (not how to stop them, but their result with an emphasis on corpses and doom)
So basically, they're just the stereotypical headbangers that falsely promote Anarchy as chaos, disaster, and disorder.
Lyrics
-------
Lyrics, same as messages, have no meaning. Don't start puking diarrhea from your mouth, no, their lyrics suck big time. Singing about death, destruction, gloomy mood, love and whatnot will change shit, they're as bad as Lady Gaga when it comes to complaining and singing.
Music
-------
Although a minority of metal bands have some nice music, the rest just fucking suck. The only reason people, especially the aforementioned upper-middle class kids,listen to this kind of music is to act cool and shock their parents when it comes to Satanism (which they know shit about) and Black/Doom metal. They don't have a meaning, a taste, or hell even a good vocals singer.
Vocals
--------
Growling, must I say more? *Gwaaaaaaaah**headbands* Talking like a demonic creature or a bad case of throat infection is considered cool among fans of this genre, why you ask? I don't really know. The singer just screams while the crowd starts punching each other for no particular reason, mosh pit? I wish they even did it right. Wall of Death? Hell, keep your macho games, why not spear a wall while you're at it?
They Are In It For Fame
-----------------------------
Do you ever wonder how much they pay for those big-ass theatrical high quality spotlights they use at Metal shows? No? Well what about those custom made guitars they use? Wait, what about their video clips, how much do they spend on them? Oh, let's not forget the labels they sign to, damn sell-outs, and the theatrical scenery they use, from pyro-shit to lasers.
They spend shit loads of money just to impress their fans and go mainstream and possibly on the sell-outs' channel "MTV", while on the other hand Crust punk (similar to metal, but underground and anarchist) and other anarcho-bands like Crass, Rudimentary Peni, Flux of Pink Indians used to play shows using household light bulbs, no fences, no scenery, used instruments, no 1000$ masks like shit SlipKnot they wore military surplus black clothing to show solidarity between them, sang for social change not profit, and never went mainstream.
In Conclusion:
------------------
Metal is listened to by upper-middle class and rich class kids just to impress their friends, shock their parents, and try to fit into a useless society. Most metalheads that I know have I-Pods filled with:
- Sell-out, mainstream bands like Sepultra, Metallica, Slayer etc...
- Tupac (of course, how can they act cool without gangsta rap?)
- Celine Dion (don't know why...)
- Emo bands such as: Green Day, Blink-182, Paramore, Cold Play
- Pop shit: Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Madonna, Shakira etc...
