Classical and Hard Rock are great, but can we agree Metal is trash. It's repetitiveand dull, and metalheads are the stupidest fucking peoplemon God's left buttcheek.

keep your electronic bullshit with random noises then
obviously there is plenty of worthwhile music in metal, but as a general rule 'metalheads' - that is anyone who listens primarily (or worse, exclusively) to metal - really are awful humans. as shallow and narrow-minded as indeh fans they mock, but also ugly fat shits with the inescapable stench of b.o. and aura of autism. every now and then i find myself in the metal general and wonder just how negligent these people's parents must've been

There's a lot of heavy metal that's creative and not repetitive/derivative.
If you're fed up with the obsessive technicality in a lot of modern metal, then just engage your escapist fantasies and listen to power metal.

You know there are people who listen to different genres and call themselves ''metalheads'' so I don't get why do you feel the redefine the word

Metal died in 1993. Only 12 good albums have been released since then (most of them in 1994, being already recorded by 1993). Metal achieved its creative peak in albums like Onward to Golgotha, Pure Holocaust, and The Red in the Sky is Ours, elevating the genre into a legitimate art form. Now, thanks to Slaughter of the Soul and Gojira, all its potential was squandered and the genre has been reduced into being mere gimmick ridden noise for drunk idiots (i.e. the lowest common denominator - stop trying to turn underground metal into AC/DC).

No, we can't. Metal is not homogenic to be judged as a whole. I doubt you listened to metal much.
Or is it bait? I really can't tell it on this board anymore
I don't think you can really understand metal unless you see it live (in an intimate club venue obviously).
The music is what it is, but even if you don't like it the crowds are unbelievably cool. At times macho, but always inclusive.
Also Moshing should be on your bucket list. I've been doing it for decades, i've never been hurt or even seen a risky situation.
>metal is repetitive
>listens to classic and hard rock
Shitty, shitty b8.
