They're HEAVY AS FUCK and they RIP HARD. Now, if there was a skullet band that should get som props, Nifelheim. 3/5 skullet action covered in spikes and leather is a total winning combination.

And anybody who would not like a band because the singer was bald or had short hair or was black or fat or something else fucking lame like that falls into the poser world, doesn't it? It's a big world and there are a million opinions about what is and isn't metal, you're right. But that doesn't change the fact that once you start talking about haircuts you might as well start talking about shoes.

But my point really is that metal fans are as worried about look and image as anyone. We tend to think we're above all that, but look at all the acrimony on this website. There is so much hate here and so much conjecture about what is or isn't metal, almost always based purely on one's own opinion. Priest and Sabbath were from the ’70s originally when no one cared.

What about Hulk Hogan and Ron Jeremy, both skullets. I hope that when I get old, I have enough hair for a skullet. The skullet is the most metal you can be, period.

Mid 80's Metal... Sammy you're wrong as can be. Yeah, there are a shit ton of bands out there that are about image, always have been, but there are also bands that don't care about that shit at all, and they've always been there too... and real music fans don't care about that shit at all. That last comment... dude I guess you're that John Clemments dude? If so you are one of the last dudes who needs to talk about how anybody looks, ever.

The very fact that a metal band in the mid-'80s wouldn't be caught dead without long hair is a testament to that fact. Metal should be about "who cares?!" but in reality, metal fans care about this nonsense, and always have, as much as boy band pop stars.

For that matter what's 'metal' about having a 'look'? That's shit for people who worry about if a band has a member with short hair. Short, long, skullet, mullet, afro, bald... . It's fucking dumb, and not really all that funny. I agree with Fink here… what’s so ‘metal’ about spending more time in front of the mirror than your girlfriend?

Isn't that the "look" he should be going for? Or are we supposed to grow out of metal when we get old? I just really, really prefer metal musicians to not give a shit about their "look." You see some of these younger bands, particularly in the death/metal/whatevercore genres with guys who clearly spend way too much time in front of the mirror. If they're making good music, I can forgive them their ridiculous image preoccupations, but seriously.... it's very un-metal to care about how you look. I just find the skullet oddly refreshing.
