Video: Judgmental Metal Elitist Accuses Metalheads of Being Judgmental Elitists

0

Guys. Guys. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I have some mind-blowing shit I have to tell you. Did you know that metal fans have a tendency to be unpleasant, and that they take their fandom too seriously? Dude, I know it sounds crazy, but it’s apparently true! I know, I had no idea.

Thankfully, I found this video by JUNTEXTRAS (thank fuck, because JUNT always felt lacking to me). In it, a young soothsayer explains how “underground metal fans” are elitists who hate when their music is both liked AND neglected. He also pointed out how the Internet is apparently a sounding board for unhappy metalheads, and that they vent ire there! Thankfully, the video’s host explains that you can like more than one genre of music, and how even though most female metalheads listen to metalcore there’s nothing wrong with that.

And before you think that he’s a hypocrite or as judgmental and puerile as the people he rails against, notice that he says things like “not that there’s anything wrong with ____” and “I don’t like _____ personally,” so you know he’s thinking outside of the box.

Watch this video, guys. It will change how you think about metal and its fans. I almost tweeted about how I don’t care for a band today, but thank Mother Internet for sending me this angel with his good news. I’m saved.
