Okay, I'll get straight to the point: I've recently gotten into more obscure black/death metal (about 4 or 5 months) and I am wondering what is up with the attitude of some of these people?
I've seen so much pretentious attitude I can't believe it! Everything from...
terrible elitist comments: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujayUTEVgpo
to ridiculously 'grim' pseudonyms: http://www.metal-archives.com/artists/R ... ery/272901
to just plain cruelty: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHL8wMD9 ... 1367199752
I love the music (though not of the videos I posted) but come on! Is metal head culture not supposed to be about unity and brother/sister-hood against the masses... and do these people actually believe this nonsense that they are superior or are they just 'trolling'?
P.S. I have also met a lot of very nice people in the scene!
I am just speaking of the, you know, one in 15 who just so happen to have stronger and more... colourful language.
