DEMI LOVATO LOVES METAL

Friday, July 24th, 2009 at 2:13pm by

A friend sent us the below clip of Demi Lovato talking about her appreciation of Job for a Cowboy, Abigail Williams and Maylene and the Sons of Disaster (go to 3:16 in the clip). Of course, I had to use Wikipedia to figure out who the fuck Demi Lovato is, and turns out she has exactly the kind of career you’d expect her to based on her appearance. Still, I guess if she can get some twelve year old girls into JFAC, it’s all good… right?

In other news, good to see that Jimmy Fallon is still a massive tool.

  • Z

    Oh my god that’s awesome.

  • metalvinny

    I’d make her breakfast!

    • Michael O’Connor

      Breaksfast Really?
      Why Breakfast?

      • Sacajawea

        So he can feed her his breakfast sausage, BLAMMO!

        • Jigantor

          Zing! :D

  • metalguy

    sounds beleivable when she says it unlike when hannah clamed to love maiden. she looks sooo much hotter without bangs(little sister watches ger thats how i know)

    • Hatemeallyouwant

      Actually, I like her with bangs. She looks cute that way. Without bangs she looks like a goth.

  • seveword

    She’s not legal for you, but she’s legal for me! Yaaaay!

  • Permafrost

    You know… I had this on last night and was tuning it out until my wife told me what she’d said. My wife has heard me playing Abigail Williams, so she knew what Demi was talking about.

    I say that’s pretty cool, considering she could’ve mentioned bands like Avenged Sevenfold, Attack Attack, or even Korn, and refered to those groups as “heavy”. Good on her for having some taste.

  • mankvill

    I’m not surprised 12 year old girls are into JFAC, seeing as that’s pertty much who they cater to.

    • metalvinny

      It didn’t really matter who she mentioned, someone will talk shit regardless. Way to take something positive for metal and take a dump on it. Go f*&^ yourself.

      • mankvill

        shitty deathcore =/= metal.

    • Ziltoid

      XD, absolutely correct. JFAC is awful.

    • iolanach

      LOL

  • jason

    good for her for not listening to pop, but those bands still blow.

    • iolanach

      true. if she had said Gorod and Benighted, THEN i’d be impressed.

      • Metal Fuckin’ Dave

        I’d be proposing.

  • Tom

    “In other news, good to see that Jimmy Fallon is still a massive tool.”

    …so true, so true

  • Mynamesucks

    That pretty amazing considering the fact that she works for Disney.

    • fernando

      atreyu also works for disney, when they played in mexico people trow them coins while there were playing and comes from a country were the minimum wage its 4 bucks a day

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Jesse-Menard/502061034 Jesse Menard

    I put it in her. Especially now.

    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      She’s a little too old for me.

  • http://www.welovemetal.com We Love Metal

    My nine year old idolizes Lavato, its nice to see that Demi might help shape our future with Metal.

    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      If this twit helps shape your musical future in any way, I would be very afraid if I were you.

  • Oriana Smith

    I’m a girl and I listened to Cannibal Corpse when I was 11.

    • Jamie

      good for you…would you like a cookie?

      • metalguy

        does that mean your gunna give blowjobs too metalheds? if not who cares

    • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

      i’m a girl that likes metal, and i work with Lamb of God all day. i listened to Britney Spears and NSYNC when i was 11. see Miss Oriana, you don’t need to be KVLT when you’re 11 in order to be cool. i’m way cooler and i ate spoonfed pop like it was my job.

      ps – i’d fuck Demi. the end.

  • bearbomb

    This is scripted. Everyone knows girls like this don’t exist.

    • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

      you’re not looking hard enough. or girls don’t like you.

      • bearbomb

        Both.

        • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

          aww now i just feel bad. :(

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Mark-Gavin/1396340262 Mark Gavin

    She has a pop album out and was on Disney’s “Camp Rock”, Just sayin’.

  • lol

    I fail to see how giving props to a bunch of deathcore/metalcore bands means that you love metal. Nor do I see how this is “positive” for metal.

    Oh and Volbeat > Maylene and the Sons of Disaster

  • Piero

    Doug from Weeds on the left ?

  • \m/Eluveitie\m/

    She listens to Dr. Acula too
    ’nuff said

  • MoonSnake

    funny how she’s kinda embarrassed at first. probably because she realizes that professing her love for a band called Maylene and the Sons of DIsaster could have some repercussions back at Disney

    • lol

      Why? They are a Christian band.

    • metalguy

      yea they sound goofey when you say them aloud

    • chase

      dude maylene kicks motherfucking ass. A good southern band with a hint of doom. I don’t care if they are christian. I listen to all the satanic shit and if your christian and your shit rocks, i will give it a jam

  • Adam

    Wow. The MS Haterade mafia is all over this one. Jesus guys. Think of it like this:

    Demi gets some young girls into JFAC. From there they may get into something better, and so on… Before you know it, we might actually have some decent new metal bands with female singers in them in a few years. And they might say “Demi Lovato got me into metal”. Yes I know it’s not necessarily the MOST likely to happen, but it’s better then Demi saying “tee hee, I love Britney Spears, she’s my idol” or something.

    Oh, and this article is pretty amusing:
    http://music.spreadit.org/demi-lovato-secretly-want-a-metal-band-album/

    • lol

      That would be pretty fucking horrible if trendy 12 year old girls get into shitty deathcore bands and make it so that even more legitimate bands like Atheist and Cynic tour with scene bands like The Faceless and Psyopus.

      • ^^^^Douchbag^^^^^

        lol must be the biggest KVLT TR00 M3t4l/ most pathetic human being on the planet. Good for you, I didn’t think I could ever find you.

        • cockboy

          totally agree with ya

      • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

        HAHA did you say The Faceless and Psyopus are scene?? DID YOU SAY PSYOPUS IS SCENE?? my god go get fucking hit by a truck you idiot. that’s like saying Nachtmystium is crunkened deathcore.

        and 12 year old girls ARE into deathcore. you haven’t the slightest idea about booking bands. HA this is too funny i have to go find a tissue so i can wipe my tears of laughter.

        • cosk

          @ lol — Psyopus is most definately not “scene”. Here is the pulse of popular culture. Here you are 20 fucking miles away from that pulse with absolutely no idea what your talking about. The faceless could go either way though…

          • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

            The Faceless’ most recent record was leeeeaning towards techish… i like their sound. the record before that was leeeeaning towards not being very good… but it was still okay.

            but yes. Psyopus = not scene. check your shit @lol before you start posting on a metal board.

      • Richard

        Are you fucking kidding me? Why is it that so many people hate bands like the faceless just because they got popular through “the scene”? Their stuff is much more technically demanding than a lot of the bands praised on this forum. Don’t just write them off for playing a breakdown every now and then. I agree that Cynic is a more talented band, but the Faceless deserve some serious respect as well.

        • Masonic Wehrmacht

          I had the misfortune of seeing The Faceless play live. So many nuts were in their mouths.

    • jason

      Or even better… it could lead to having more hot, young chicks at metal shows. Doesn’t seem so bad if you ask me.

    • Jamie

      there are no, and never will be any, good metal bands with female singers. well, there are two. but Light This City broke up. so that leaves it to Landmine Marathon.

      demi lovato is only capable of starting bands like In This Moment, which let’s face it, the world is better without.

    • Jizzmaster3000

      Only twats use the term “Haterade”. So guess what that makes you?

    • lol

      Yeah, I forgot that scene kids absolutely hate incessant soulless noodlely bullshit and breakdowns. You all should get AIDS for supporting shitty bands.

      • Hatemeallyouwant

        @ lol = I couldn’t agree with you more. Not all deathcore bands are shitty, there are decent deathcore bands out there, but most deathcore bands are, sadly, shitty. and PsyOpus is no exception. Their new album seems like a joke to me.

  • niggaplease

    A teenager likes shitty metal and hardcore. What a surprise.

  • Anthony

    I sent news about this months ago (December 08, actually), and now it gets posted because someone else sent it.

    Does MS hate me?

    • http://uponwingsofblack.blogspot.com/ \m/Eluveitie\m/

      Don’t take it personally man, MS hates everybody

  • Anthony

    She’s also a fan of Lamb of God and DImmu Borgir. She even saw Dimmu in concert

    http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1593780/20080828/lovato__demi.jhtml

    That’s the link I sent. Fuck you guys.

  • Jay Are

    They give anyone a show these days.

  • David W

    This is a quote from her wikipedia page

    However, she stated in a recent interview that she no longer listens to metal music, as she is in a happier place now, and listens to mellow music that inspires her writing.”

    • metalguy

      shes hapopier because she doesnt listen too metal anymore? seriously, who is extremely depressed that listens too metal?

      • http://uponwingsofblack.blogspot.com/ \m/Eluveitie\m/

        What the fuck is wrong with you? Are you retarded? It’s “to” with one “o”. That’s two posts now I’ve seen you make the mistake. And what the fuck does “hapopier” mean? Fuck you.

        • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

          i miss your grammatical reviews, lady. keep em’ comin.

          • http://uponwingsofblack.blogspot.com/ \m/Eluveitie\m/

            The “i” should be capitalized to begin your post ma’am. I’ll overlook all the mistakes in the second part of your post because clearly you were attempting a conversational tone. Try to be more careful next time.

          • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

            Oh geez, drop it. It’s me.

        • Hatemeallyouwant

          Whoa there. Easy Ma’am, easy.

  • John

    So she likes metal, cool. I wish she liked good metal. Because JFAC and Abigail WIlliams are not that.

    • dot

      give her a break for listening to bands some of you don’t like.

      granted, if this isn’t just a phase for her (although i think she did say she USED to listen to metal), she’s probably gonna have better taste in a couple of years, provided she doesn’t implode first.

      and yeah, i’d tap that.

      • dot

        replied to the wrong comment. ignore this.

  • Agmkreptile

    Am I the only one who is a HUGE demi lovato fan and a metalhead?

    • metalguy

      fan cuz of the music or because of her

      • Agmkreptile

        i actually like her music. though I think she’s really fucking hot too.

        • insidethenine

          I agree job for a cowboy sucks but damn is she hot. I personalylike slipknot, devildriver, and behemoth

  • seasick

    i would fuck her

    • bearbomb

      It looks like you ARE fucking her.

  • Adam

    wow. I don’t usually read a majority of the comments on these news posts… Vince and Axl are right… the haterade mafia is no exaggeration. Some of you sound like nothing will ever please you.

    But I tell you, I would certainly like to hear someone like Joanna Pacitti say she was into metal. Cause she could totally be the next Cristina Scabbia.

    I was a little disappointed to find out Lovato is Christian (which is probably why she wants to guest on an Underoath album), but fuck it, so long as she doesn’t start a preaching band, whatever.

  • dick johnson

    12 year disney kids getting into death metal and shaping the market, much like how scene kids are with black metal, especially when that movie about varg comes out. awesome

  • Tommy Lindbergsen

    Wow, all the bands she namedropped totally suck.
    Another prime example that females have no clue about metal what so ever.

    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      Bring on the hate

      • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

        It’s okay. We won’t hate. You’ll realize… years from now when you STILL aren’t getting pussy.

        • Tommy Lindbergsen

          Tell that to my girlfriend, pussy comes standard and steady for guys like me since females love to fuck
          opinionated and sarcastic assholes.

  • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

    i’m sure she wouldn’t like to hear you say that.

  • Colin

    ‘Hot, talentless tween likes gay-ass emo metal…’

    Stop the fucking presses!

  • AntiqueHighHeelRedDollShoes

    Why is Disney into ugly girls?
    And how can she not be ashamed of her musical career when she listens to anything remotely metal?

    • http://uponwingsofblack.blogspot.com/ ipc4me

      Cuz she’s getting paid

      • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

        OH MY GODD SHUT UP she is not ugly. stop being jealous for fucks sake.

        • Tommy Lindbergsen

          Disney is an abomination spewing all kinds of untalented image based teen garbage, which is mostly borderline exploitation of kids if you think about it.

  • dot

    and yeah, i’d tap that.

    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      Actually her taste in bands is on par with her age group since only children like the bands she mentioned.
      Anyone who has been into metal longer than a couple of months like this twit knows that Job for a Cowboy and Abigail Williams are unlistenable.

      • SolaceInNothing

        I have been listeing to metal for years and I love Job for a cowboy.

        I guess your wrong.

        • Tommy Lindbergsen

          Just because you have been listening to metal for “years” doesn’t mean you know what you are talking about.
          Most life long metalheads find JFAC and AW to be shit.

          • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

            I actually agree with Tommy on this one.

          • SolaceInNothing

            Actually TOMMY is absollutely right. However I never professed to know anything. I simply stated in rebuttle of your post that I have been listening to metal for years and I like JFAC. That simple.

            I am not pretentious enough to care if I am considered a metalhead in the eyes of anyone or not. I just listen to music that I like. It is only purely coincdence that 95% of it falls into the unbrelic genre called metal.

          • Richard

            I agree with you Solace. I hated JFAC when I first heard of them but then finally gave them a chance on their latest album. I think its really damn good. Can someone give me any legitimate reason why they are a bad band aside from “most lifelong metalheads find JFAC to be shit”?

  • S.I.

    That’s nice. Even though I don’t really like any of the bands she mentioned, I do respect her more than if she said that she listens to all that Jonas Brothers/pop crap.

  • 20 eyes

    the band didnt play metal… that was punk…

  • tc7005

    So where’s the Camp Metal movie? anyways, I think it’s awesome that she’s into metal. Rock on, babe!

  • Slayerific

    Until she does something with metal, I could care less if she had a collection of thrash vinyls from the 80s. And she’s definitely in the position to make an album- and if she really was metal she’d tell Disney to fuck off and make an album.

    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      She’s too young to do anything against what the cyborg continuum at Disney tells her to do.
      She doesn’t know the first thing about metal, it is more likely that she has some guy friends that listen to the bands she mentioned and is trying to fit in with the scene.
      I love how Fallon was like ” oh I need to book some metal bands on my show let me write this down.”
      He needs to be castrated and thrown out on his ass.

  • dick?

    i’m pretty sure you’re all misisng something here…
    the roots are pretty good at impromptu metal…
    put a bunch of jazz/hip-hop musicians together and it’s bound to be a heavy ass success…

    • Masonic Wehrmacht

      The Roots is a hip hop band that is really good. Everyone who hates hip hop should give them a chance. They belong in the 1.3% of hip hop with talent.

  • dick?

    and she’s definitely got to get herself into a an actual “metal” act.
    i use “metal” because it could be hard rock, that she calls metal and we’d all listen because everybody over 18 on this site would still try to hit that because she’s hot.

    deal with it.

  • thebenthic

    i understand that the whole point of metalsucks is to talk shit, but its getting old. while job and abigail both have routes in deathcore can you seriously say that they are just generic deathcore bands? ruination was a legit deathmetal album, while i didnt particularily love abigails new cd, it was still way better than the legend ep. and as for maylene, can anyone really say that theyre not the best at what they do? im absolutely positive that someone will reply to this with a “your not metal or kill yourself” or “your not metal” or some ridiculous bullshit but honestly if this disney girl can reach out to young girls and turn them on to metal by some means, that thats legit. dont care what anyone says.

    • http://www.adrenalinepr.com Natalie

      I will not respond with “you’re not metal”. and i will agree that Ruination is a far cry from JFAC’s last…. horrible release. but Abigail Williams is not deathcore (but they still suck a huge one), and Maylene’s new album was not good… i turned it off halfway through.

      so no, they aren’t generic deathcore bands (with the exclusion of JFAC’s last album… that was as generic deathcore as it gets). but, they still aren’t good.

    who gives 2 tumbling fucks what music a girl listens to? if she has a hot body and wants to let me sex her up i see no problems.

  • xXxDarkfoxXx
    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      You namedrop Miley Cyrus and then you throw up a link to Revolver.
      That qualifies as a double dose of fail.

  • Kev

    Well that comment board was a load of mis-aimed hate and sexism. I mean really guys, you may not like these bands, but its not like Deicide and Bloodbath are common amongst the younger crowd, per say, so this is at least a step in the right direction. And if any of you tr00 kvlt purists actually listened to JFAC I’m sure you wouldn’t be spewing half as much shit. They’re pretty fucking decent for a modern band. And for the fuck who said something about emo metal, I’m pretty sure that died when Bullet For My Valentine and Atreyu both became un cool again. Fucking purist retards. Step out of your bubbles and take a look around, your shit isnt the best, ass fucks.

    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      Just about every band you mentioned has ripped off a true metal band is way, shape of form.
      The reason you think they are good, like most of the people who listen to this crap, is because you have never listened to any of the bands who did it first.
      You think it’s being close minded and being trapped inside of a bubble, but really it’s the disgusting way these so called modern bands blatantly rip off true metal acts that did it better fifteen years ago.
      You are wrong, my shit IS the best.

      • Kev

        Don’t play the rip off card, no ones original. No matter who you are, what music you play or how old you are, someone slightly older and “truer” is saying you ripped off someone else.
        I get that rehashes suck, it actually bugs me to. I listen to old shit. I like old shit. I hear the rip offs. I don’t care. A good riff is a good riff, and a good song is a good song. You gotta just realize that after so many years originality is rare, if not completely instinct. Being a good musician and a good artist means you write music that is true to yourself, and its one in a million that its something mind blowingly new and innovative.
        What is true? Those from my generation (25 and under) are gonna say bands from 2019 are ripping off the bands they listened to growing up. The older say that those bands ripped off the ones from their generation, so on so forth. Some dude 10-15 years older than you probably says something along the same longs (assuming your not like 40 or something, in which case, why do you care?)
        Thats great. I like my shit.

  • West Virginia

    Well hope to at least see some metal bands get a gig on that show.

    And Fallon sucks, i doubt hell be there for long.

    • Tommy Lindbergsen

      The problem with booking gigs on a show of that nature is that it will most likely be bands that suck, it’s not like you’re ever going to see Insomnium or Agalloch on late night shows.
      If anything you’ll see more mainstream acts like Avenged Sevenfold or whatever else the kids listen to these days.

  • greg

    she listens to shit. JFAC is overrated old shit. Jimmy Fallon is a babbling idiot and probably still listens to the fucking Spin Doctors

  • Hatemeallyouwant

    She can work for Disney and still be a metalhead. There’s nothing wrong with that. And fellow metalheads, I don’t see how her love for metal has anything to do with her hotness or her incapability to front a metal band. Sexist much?

    Glad that she’s a metalhead. Still, I question her taste in metal. It’s true that she has the right to listen to whatever she wants. I personally don’t find JFAC and AW to be all that amazing, I’m sure there are people who would agree with me. But … that’s just me.

  • Brendan Seigel

    Here’s the way I look at it… If you are a musician who plays pop music but likes metal, good for you. BUT, if you are a DISNEY musician that likes metal, you are basically stabbing your own musical taste in the back by supporting and WORKING FOR the bastards that shove Jonas Brothers down the throat of today’s youth.

    I look exactly like Demi Lovato, and I listen to Job for a Cowboy. I’ve met the band too. Cool guys. I also listen to Pantera and Slayer.

  • Gee

    I’m sorry but I really dislike her, if anything shes degrading metal I mean shes on disney and her music and clothes ughhh:| But everyone has different opinions I guess.

  • Avradizimir

    That fact that she likes deathcore upgrades my indifference to fervent dislike. I’m no tr00 kvltist (OK, I listen to a lot of tr00 kvlt stuff, but I also like 80′s Metallica and Tarja era Nightwish), but deathcore is basically death metal dumbed down for moronic teenagers (like Miss Lovato) going through puberty whose raging hormones blind them to the utter shitness of the music.

    Deathcore (along with nu-metal and all other core sub genres with the exception of grindore) is a disgrace and an embarrassment to the great genre of metal.
