“I listen to a little bit of everything”
Oh nice, you like any metal?
“No, I don’t like screamo”
__________________________
I don’t like these types of people who think all metal is screamo
No metal is screamo. Screamo is not metal.
equimanthorn6 I think it’s safe to say that all of us metalheads and even people who listen to a couple of metal bands are subject to the classics such as “how can you understand that” “do you worship the devil or something?” Or “that’s satanist music”
I’d rather listen to let’s say Iron Maiden vs some rap artist who writes songs and albums about sex,drugs, abusing women and crap. Not to say all of them do that of course but, some people who have a problem with my metal listen to artists that fit that description. You like what you like, let me be for my music tastes and I’ll continue to let you be.
that physically hurt me just by reading it.
Worse yet they think anyone who wears black is "Emo".
GLOOMY KUSINAGI
That’s one of the most annoying things
People: It's all Satan worshipping music
Me, a power metal fan: *visible wizard confusion*
Me, a death metal fan: *gut inflammation*
me viking metal fan
-ODIN
Animals as Leaders and Plini:
me a power/folk metaler: odin i must ride dragons along with my emerald sword
“Do you worship satan?”
-Only on Wednesdays
Not Satan, just Papa from Ghost
@Anthony Farrish how about you go fuck yourself you predjudce dip shit
@Anthony Farrish Hail Satan! I am an Satanist...
Satan worships me!
@Anthony Farrish well now i can't sing along with year zero. And that's song is just cool. And you dont have to be satanist to sing along with that song.
-Do you worship the devil?
-Yes, of course
Trust me the conversation is way funnier when you say yes
Gotta try it next time
It really works well and probably everything is better than reasoning with someone close-minded enough to ask that question
Someone asked me that once and I told them I'd be ashamed if I worshipped you
Nothing like scaring off an annoying christian who won't let me finish shopping with a "goodbye and may beelzebub's gaze be upon you"
I live in Florida, I should try that sometime, or some variant of that, like Cthulhu or Nyarlethotep or some other really scary Lovecraftian god.
One annoyance for me is when someone who knows I like Metal catches me Listening to something other than Metal and then says "This doesn't seem like your type of Music,"
Most people say they wouldn't think metal is my type of music
I would say "What can a guy in high school choir not find enjoyable songs to sing to?" *proceeds to find some sort of musical showtune to sing to*
You ain't never lied
I would say to that person ever heard of liking more than one type of music
Right! 👏👏👏
6.Oh don't worry it's just a phase!
Fran Sredoja
Me:*rages*
When I was 18 my older sister always told me that I would grow up and listen to only country music (at the time I was in to Judas Priest, AC/DC, Ozzy, etc.). Well, here I am at over 50 years old and listening to mostly thrash bands and have recently started an interest in Jinjer. This is one hell of a long phase.
Fran Sredoja oh my god dude yes

“Hey nice shirt kid, you listen to Maiden’s newer stuff-“
“Who’s Iron Maiden?”
Some soft grunge anesthetic girls who only have vintage band tees only to show on Instagram... I hate that
I know right??!?!
Fuck iron maiden.stupid band.
METAL IS FOR PASSION NOT FOR FASHION!!!!!
@@antonispapadopoulos3579 έτσι🖤🤘!
"UGH, DEPRESSING"
Got that a lot from my family. So whilst I was being depressing listening to Korpiklaani songs about partying, my family were being not-depressing by listening to R&B songs about relationship breakups and domestic violence.
The worst for me is always, "How do you understand what they're saying???" -_-
you just learn how to lol
My reply is usually "Sometimes I cannot understand what they are saying, best music for drowning out unwanted noise."
Flay The Skin I actually had a good 1 minute convo with a kid in either my homeroom or first period [they're back to back in the same room] He asked me why I would listen to that stuff. I told him basically half it is just the mood/musical aspect of it. It's easier to just sit back and listen to the guitars and drums then pay attention to the lyrics. I might know the lyrics but at the end of the day it's more the instruments than the vocals that determine if I like a song or not.
I will point out I was listening to black metal soo the lyrics are pretty much impossible to understand without taking the time to listen to vocalist and the song over an over again. Death metal I can usually understand it but like I usually don't pay attention to the lyrics if I'm just working on something else.
Lol meanwhile theyre listening to music with lyrics just as hard to understand!! This one drives me nuts.
Well it depends on the of metal, but of course anyone saying retarded things would be talking about easy-as-fuck to understand like Metallica...
I find it annoying when people say “how do you listen to that garbage” and then tell me to listen to Country or Something.
Narrow minded people.
@@5ar_ Yah, they call us narrow minded as we "don't allow ourselves to check more diverse genres then 'your metal' ". Yah, they don't see the hypocrisy.
Or worse ghetto rap about selling crack and slappin hoes.
I dabble in various genres of music though it's usually dark. I can appreciate different genres eventhough Metal is my favorite.
Hey man I like me some Johnny cash
I hate when people think because I'm black and a girl I can't listen to metal. I have had people literally come up to me saying black people cannot listen to metal because of the color of my skin by both metal heads and non metal heads and been called racial slurs because of it too. I'll listen to what I want thank you 😒
You can just laugh at the fact that your musical taste is better than their's ; ) its what i do
Black people invented Rock 'N' Roll like Chuck Berry and Little Richard. Without them metal could not be what it is today.
Tell them you're putting the black in black metal
dude that sucks. if it weren’t for black people, metal probably wouldn’t be a thing. you’re completely valid & fuck racists.
That's racist
“You like that emo crap”
I hate when they say that!!!
Same, especially since I'm a goth and I don't like being compared to emos
Some band have evolved from emo. But most died
Yep, all the fucking time
Those are fighting words to me
When you have headphones on and your listening to some Maiden and someone has the gull to tap your shoulder and ask you something, right in the middle of the solo. Ugh, i hate that!
If you wait until the song is over it's less annoying ;) It's just the right thing to do.
I really really hate when people do that! It gets under my skin! It’s never ever important when it happens!
When people speak to you when you have your headphones on ... no.
I hate it when I want to talk to someone and they have to keep one headphone on (or both)
Nicholas Garza that happened to me on the bus and it’s fucking annoying
- “you like metal? but you’re a girl!”
- “well, you’re so pretty and you do ballet and you do well in school, so like how do you listen to [insert generic band name that anyone can listen to]?” (Very self specific but still very annoying)
Matisse Edgar Yoshihara you can say that again!
I HATE THIS DAMN COMMENT! Lol 😂😂😂😂 omg it makes me wanna punch people in the face for saying it to me
@Bunker Sieben touche
LOL.. Exactly the reaction every time I get!
As a man I still get this comment tho🤔... I thought I was the only one
I was wearing a dismember shirt, and my health teacher thought it said december
I was wearing my skinless sweater to school and my friend thought it said shingles
XD
Funny as fuck
Lol at least u didnt get in trouble for it
When people say "I listen to all kinds of music" and when Metal comes up, they talk shit on it.
Another is that they say that Metal has no melody. They clearly haven't hard of MELODIC Death Metal
I hate melodic metal.
Clearly they haven’t heard of ANY metal.
Iron Maiden, Metallica, Slayer, Sepultura, all of them have melodies. Almost EVERY metal song has melody.
Jurica Grčević so you only listen to grind?
Iron Maiden?
I agree with them all. Another annoying thing I come across is when dumb people compare Metal to emo.
I used to hang out with one emo girl in junior high - she recognized she wasn't listening to metal. She was cool. I remember one time our teacher said something about dressing in light colors during summer and we looked at each other and just tried not to laugh
@@emiliapawny4746 nice! I new these two emo girls in highschool they where alright, I once showed them the extreme stuff I listen to, and they said it scares them, and I just laughed!
"Metal and screamo are both the same thing, satanic noise."
*Ignorance 100*
@@emiliapawny4746 Exactly, I can name 3 "satanic bands", but they have never heard more then 15 seconds of metal in their life.
It's funny when I say all rap is about sex and drugs, and they try to defend it 😅 that doesn't get old ( I do listen to some rap on occasion, aside from the usual Metal-core through BM ).
I agree, but I never heard anyone call metal music emo
"its just noise" oh my god im gonna struggle them.
@Bunker Sieben 😂 i have a friend that calls herself a "metalhead" and once i asked her do you hear to exodus and she's like "tha fuck is that?"her favourite song of slipknot is duality DUALITY I mean dont get me wrong its a beautiful song but thats not a "metal head song" .I put her to listen to disaster piece and SHE SAID "ITS JUST NOIZZ"
actually we dont have a good friendship anymore😔
She stabbed my back...but FUCK HER am i right?? The only thing I NEED IS METAL🤘🤘🤘🖤🖤
that some type of strangle-juggling? to struggle
*strangle, right?
Fvck their throats with a knife.
1 "Why do you have long hair?"
2 "Why do you buy so many t-shirts, you don't have enough of it?"
3 "Why you were only black?"
4 "Why you are wereing boots during the summer"?
5 "I don't understand, why do you like that kind of music?"
1. Add the stupid "...like a girl"...one thing coming from kids, adults should know better...
Long hair's been the definition of manliness for hundreds of years. Let's bring it back.
@@thrownswordpommel7393 Yes i know, but the victims of this civilization wouldn't understand
The answer is in their questions: they don't understand.
I don't wear my boots during the summer
I've been a huge metalhead since I was about 7 years old and I'm 31 now. My mother is also a metalhead. In fact she was actually the person who first introduced it to me with Metallica and I've been addicted to them and metal music in general ever since. Mostly 80's metal. Hell, I can remember her and I watching Headbangers Ball together all the time. Good times.
When someone tells me metal is just noise and talentless. I always tell them that it takes a lot more talent to do what they do than a lot of the main stream pop singers.
Shane Everett ikr! I totally forgot that making beats and music on a fucking computer, which anybody and their moms can do, takes more talent than picking up instruments and making music that way.
monokhem that’s very true but literally anybody can sit down in front of a computer and make some rhythmic beats that are so called “fire”, but not everybody can sit down and instantly play riffs, solos, blast beats, etc. Of course some riffs and solos are easier than others but they all take practice to do and perform.
Trippinator Machine Not to mention being able to scream through 9 songs on stage. I’ve been listening to metal for years and still can’t scream like a lot of those other vocalists can. It kills my throat. It takes lots of practice.
This is so true lol
@Tsumuro growing up, hearing that type of comment was very common. People would say it's just noise and that they didn't even know what they were playing.
I'm black and a girl and yes I listen to metal...
Holla at me , baby girl;)
@@Judge_RR sup..
@@ekitkatjj8619 How you doin?
I'm white and a guy and yes I listen to metal
Good on you for liking metal, but I don’t think your sex or ethnicity matters in this situation.
"so you are metallica?"
"do you like kiss?"
"do you play guitar?"
"so you gonna grow you hair like a girl?"
Fun fact, I play the saxophone, so every time someone ask me why I don't play guitar I just say,"yes dude I play metals"
Chicks dig long hair in high school every period I had some chick playing with it and after school to in their room before her parents got home
@@adamz2790 down here you get called gay whit a common phrase like "cortate el pelo gay"
"are you a Slipknot fan?"
@@LucasGomes-nx6oc yes I am
I've been a metalhead (since the 70's) for years and wear a sport jacket, suit & tie. People don't realize you can still be metal on the inside and appear what some call normal looking but they get shocked once they know what you listen too. Who cares ? Wear what you want, listen to what you want and be yourself, your true friends will accept you exactly the way you are. \m/\m/
Also, I've never had people touch my shirt but people constantly touch my vest and on purposely stab their hands on the spikes and then complain that the spikes stabbed them.
I once had a friend who wore spiked shoes to school, it seemed like everyone went out of their way just to step on them. She didn't wear them to school ever again
I would've said to that person maybe you should watch where you put your hands onto 😐
I've never heard the Cookie Monster joke, but once a friend of mine asked me if I needed a lighter when we were passing by a church, which was pretty funny. The satanism thing happened to me once - a neo-nazi guy from my (fortunately) former class came to me and asked if I was a satanist, I looked him straight in the eyes and in a totally calm voice said yes. He didn't talk to me after that (I knew he was trying to bully me, so I acted like I was unbothered - which I really wasn't). No one ever commented on my t-shirts or tried grabbing them never happened, but once when I was waiting for a bus in my Venom t-shirt with there was also a nun on the bus stop - she remained quiet, but her expression was gold. As for the personality thing - more people would probably start with me being an atheist (I had to explain to 5 of my HIGH SCHOOL classmates how atheism wirks, because I was the only atheist they've ever met), but they know I draw, write, apparently have a good sense of humor, like Marvel, reading, I'm interested in tattoos (I'm 16, so currently have no tats, but I want to get some when I'm older - like when I'm not impulsive, hormonal kid)
EDIT: Also, 2 funny, but annoying stories:
-once I was told that I should listen to a wider variety of music, because I don't listen to the radio and metal all sounds the same (totally ignoring that I said I also like punk, hard rock, classic rock, blues, grunge and some other generes, beside metal, which is insanely diverse genre, but apparently let's say Black Sabbath, Darkthrone and Epica sound exactly the same)
-my mum's friend came with her daughter and she saw my cd collection (around 10 albums back then) and wanted me to put something on. I said she may not like it since it's metal. She said she likes metal. I put on Ride the lightning. She said it's awful. I said she said she liked metal. She said "yes, but only Metallica"
And for those, who actually read this comment, here, have a few band recomendations:
-Empty Playground
-Stworz
-Thy Worshipper
-Hunter
that friend who asked you if you needed a lighter...what a fucking genious, must be a very good friend
This isn't really metal related, but Everytime I wear my army of darkness shirt to school people always give it looks. Probably staring at the chainsaw arm or the tits on it if I had to guess.🤷
That last story had me cringeing so hard. So many people like Metallica and they don't know about their old stuff, which is the best.
We'll, it was originally just a joke. Didn't MEAN to make anybody cringe. It's a good movie. And yeah, metallicas old stuff is best. But whatever.
We do not worship satan. Satan worships us. Because reasons.... (And he is impressed by our good taste in music)
Two for me: "How can you understand the lyrics?"
And this is how a typical conversation goes:
Them: "I listen to everything."
Me: "What about heavy metal?"
Them: "No, not that."
Me: *Internally Screams*
"Oh, you look like a rockstar!
I imagine you playing in a rock band like BTS."
A girl I'm in class with literally sad that to me.
Same shit happen to me
Ew, BTS 🤢
I dry heaved reading this
Tell her you're playing for a Dwayne Johnson rock band.😂😂
Who is BTS? (Serious question)
Being asked to not wear Emperor, Cradle Of Filth, Mayhem, Obituary, etc, to family/friends' visits (or when they come to visit you.)
Andres Luna I hate it too, but I kind of understand. Dumb as fuck, but I understand.
@@yeldarb2022 yea, I could understand not wearing Behemoth to church for reasons of respecting the church I get that, but for everyday life is just child's play.
Fuck em, we need us some good ol Dawn of the Black Hearts merch.. If someone doesn't like it, they can gtfo. :)
@@andresluna2101 The church deserves zero respect.

"For Goodness Sake... Metalheads are Normal and I'm not Into Metal Music."

So is he abnormal?
sense made: fucking zero!
People look so down upon you if you:
Listen to metal
Play video games
Dislike alcohol .
Some alcohols are quite nice, such as ciders. I don't really like anything else and you definitely wouldn't see me at a bar.
They would do that with me anyway, I'm a short man.
Alcohol is for pussies
I dislike video games and like alcohol!
@@stevebickley6524 I fucking love metal, and alcohol!
I cringe when someone says “oh this is sreamo” as I’m playing something like Deicide or Lamb of God. I also hate it when someone wants to talk trash about one band I like and try to convince me to like their bands they like which I end up not enjoying at all.
And how are fucking average metal heads different than that? When everyone talks shit about todays pop artists its okay, but when people talk shit about your precious metal bands its wrong? And when people try to convince you to like their music its bad, but when metalheads try to convince someone that their music is better than todays pop music its okay?
@@GheeJuice you make a big assumption here. You can't tell wether (s)he is that kinda guy ( or girl). Many metalheads are, not all, of course, and you are right to point it out.
@@thrownswordpommel7393 Not talking about all the fans, since I am one myself as well. It just sounded really hypocritical since metalheads are famous for being the "vegans of music".
Lamb of God pretty much wore emo fashion in the mid 2000’s and their drummer plays a lot of beats similar to those found in music from bands like Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance so I can forgive them on that.
@@andysixxlett2632 are you even listening to the same band here? im preeeeeeety sure those other bands dont even have a double kick pedal. and Lamb of God never wore emo clothes.
Whenever someone says metal is just screaming, I show them Octavarium.
I see you're a man of prog culture as well
Whenever someone says metal is just screaming and growling I show them Within Temptation, Epica, Nightwish, Delain, all the good symphonic metal there is out there basically
@@cherryblossom6989 YES! I'll add Kamelot to the list as well!
When I had my hair long a lot of girls and even other guys always asked what I did to make my hair look so nice. And all the time I was like "umm... I just wash it and brush it everyday"
I know what you mean. I just washed it atleast every second day and used a comb once a day. The girls should think that maybe they dont need all those chemicals in their hair.
Should have told them that the key to having luxurious hair such as you have, is THE METAL!
Infomercial for Metal:
Are you sick and tired of hair that splits, breaks, is too greasy but not shiny? Too dry and colorless? Or simply wont grow?
TRY METAL! EVERY CHORD IN A SIC RIFF, REVERBERATES DEEPLY TO THE CORE OF EVERY HAIR FOLLICLE, PENETRATING EACH STRAND, BOOSTING ENDORPHINS THAT OTHERWISE REMAIN DORMANT. ITS SIMPLE! ITS EASY! JUST TRY METAL FOR 30 DAYS AND IF YOU ARENT COMPLETELY SATISFIED WITH TOUR RESULTS, CONTINUE TO LISTEN TO METAL FOR AN ADDITIONAL MONTH, FREE FOR THE NEXT 6 CALLERS! IF AFTER 2 MONTHS, YOU ARE NOT COMPLETELY SATISFIED, GRAB A SHOVEL, DIG A 6X6 HOLE ANYWHERE YOU SEE FIT AND SLOWLY BURY YOURSELF ALIVE! BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! PRIOR TO SELF BURIAL, BE SURE TO MAKE AT LEAST ON DEATH METAL FAN KNOW, SO THEY MAY OBSERVE AND TAKE NOTES THAT CAN LATER BE SENT TO THE APPROPRIATE DEATH METAL BAND SO A BADASS SONG CAN BE WRITTEN ABOUT ONE LESS WASTE OF AIR AMONG US!!
YOU DONT WANT TO MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY! CALL NOW! OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY!! CALL IN THE NEXT 25 MINUTES AND RECIEVE A FREE, YES YOU HEARD IT, FREE SHOVEL, FOR IF THE OCCURENCE OF SELF-BURIAL SHOULD COME TO BE! DONT WAIT! CAAAALLLLL NOWWWWW!

"You like all that death metal stuff? Oooh better check his crawlspace.." Seriously, more than one person has said this.
1.Parents
I'm missing immolation and blood incantation next Saturday because of my mom
That sucks, I wanted to see Gwar, Toxic Holocaust, and Sacred Reich but the venue is 18+ and it's just my luck I'm 17.
Yeah I'm missing it too. 21+ venue and all that. Really hyped for the new Blood Incantation album though
I’m missing obituary and abbath today because of my grandmother...;-;
@@jeffl6599 New Blood Incantation! This year has tons of excellent stuff getting released. \m/
brooooooooo that sucks...thats a serious show
"You are always listening to such angry music, what are you soo angry about?"
That one is a common one for me.
My mom told me that I should listen to other music because I have to be well-rounded. Another time, she told someone else “this is just his metal phase”. I told her that it wasn’t and she tried to correct herself, but I knew what she meant, so I just walked away. And then recently, she pointed out that a shirt I was wearing looked like ass cheeks. One of my friends said the same thing. She also gets scared when I mention mosh pits and circle pits.
Edit: Also, I asked someone in my class if they could guess one of my favorite bands. I knew what was gonna come and I guessed right. She said “My Chemical Romance”. Another went “Queen”. They went back and forth with classic bands and popular bands while I just declined each time. At the time, I was wearing a shirt from one of my favorite bands. They don’t look at the obvious signs
I was wearing my battle vest and walked down the street when an old woman I walked past made the sign of the cross and then made a claw like gesture towards me
Then you start screaming in pain, writhing in agony until you get to the ground. Scream, "Satan save me!" Then stand up and walk away like nothing happened.
I'd say I have no beef with you
“You listen to Slipknot? But you’re a girl!”
Emma Swerdlow damn you hear that? That’s annoying
I dont know what more to say to that then WTF.
Tell them to look up cerebral bore then stfu
Every girl I know who's into Metal loves Slipknot and Korn lol.
Emma Swerdlow I get this one a lot too lol
FACT: metalheads have better manners than most normies
ok so for me annoying things
1. Parents convincing you to wear other things that arent of a band or arent even in black, cause they find it all 'weird'
2. the dumbest question "dont you get a headache from listening to that?" I actually answered a coworker that question and told her "if it gave me a headache i wouldnt listen to it" she said i was becoming distant and then i just walked away
3. this one for me is personal haha you see girls in metal festivals and you want to approach them but theyre either taken or with their dad
4. people grabbing my hair or asking "when are you going to get a haircut"
5. people calling metal "emo"
When someone talks to you and finds out you like metal and says “ I like metal too, 5 finger death punch is my favorite band “.
Very true... it could always be worse
Josh B
Man I get that reply almost exclusively around my hometown when asking about metal bands, just hurts my entire being.
Thunder God , it hurts my entire being too. It could be worse but, I feel like the worst part about it is those people really like that music though. It’s as if they don’t know good things exist. It gives me the feels.
Tool. She said Tool.
It took all of my strength to not die laughing at my boss.
Melissa Yost Tool is just confusing to me. They’re harder than rock, but are they Nu Metal? Either way at least your boss didn’t say Nickleback !
I big annoyance of mine is that when I try to get with other musicians, my mom gets worried about strangers and stops me.
That's metal as fuck
@@l.ronhubbard5445 I know.
It's also metal that I'm against drugs and noise pollution.
Also that I support hearing protection
My annoyance/pet peeve is when a “normie” tries to throw up the horns 🤘🏼, but end up throwing the “I love you” sign🤟🏼.
I see that one constantly online
@@Will_Wel Like that poseur Gene "I'm a filthy jewbag" Simmons
Yes! I definitely find that annoying too! I was at a Slayer concert and a former friend of mine kept doing that at the end of each song. I told him that's not how you throw the horns and he said why does it matter? That and the tool said he should have bought the Testament shirt I was wearing because it looked cool. He didn't even know who Testament was!
bill williams that sucks.
@@billwilliams2116 My condolences. No one should suffer being friends with a poseur.
When people learn I’m a math major “wow so you’re actually pretty smart. But your a metalhead?”
I don’t understand why that’s so hard to grasp
My sister actually said “Why do you like that metal stuff like Queen”? I showed her Raining Blood and it’s now her favorite song.
I remember when i went to talk to my school counselor at 9 grathe wearing carcass shirt. She was trying to read the font a whole time.
"that's just a phase, soon you'll listen to pop like normal people" they've been telling me since I was like 10-11 years lmao
I'm a metalhead and I went through a pop phase. Believe it or not, yes, pop was a phase for me so screw people who claim metal is a phase
I used to be into rap, alternative rock, and techno music before I was into metal music
i really enjoy listening to you talk for some reason. stay metal and have a nice day \m/
i hate it when people assume i only listen to metal i mean its sort of is but i really like 80s pop and classical music and its so annoying WHENEVER heavy metal or rock gets brung up in school everyone stares at me i is probably a petty thing to get annoyed at but it just makes me uncomfortable plus people constaly taking the piss out my hair saying to cut it short. great vid man really enjoyed it.
One of the biggest annoyances is the isolation we are put through. In highschool it's the worst. In a year I'll be in College. At least it will be better.
@Petrazenka Great points, I'm closer to Republican than left, so I'm not getting brainwashed into that circus. 👍🏻
i’m a sophomore in high school and i can say the things that bug me are when people ask if I’m satanic when i’m wearing a band shirt and also when kids wear metallica or slayer and don’t know shit about them
Awesome tip about Gwar! Thanks!
I love your recommendation, hail GWAR!!!!
Lots of people have asked me these questions:
" Are you Emo, or Goth? "
" I can't understand what they are saying! "
" You will get over it soon. "
" That isn't real Music, listen to Sam Smith"
And I hate it when someone randomly, touches my hair......or my vest.....
A guy actually pulled my vest for no reason! I didn't even know who he was!
I tell people i listen to Cannibal Corpse and Slayer and they automatically ask me if i have killed anyone. I tell them i have someone in mind.

Dude you nailed it right on the head with your top 5.. Specially the band shirt. It happens to me whenever I go to work wearing one of my band shirts. Awesome vid keep up the good work bro..
Man I introduce myself to my teachers as such: I am a metalhead, a guitar player, and I like BBQ. That'll be all. It's super funny tho bc occasionally you get a teacher who you can feel them judging you and you can hear their head trying to reconcile my respectful attitude and good grades to metalhead
This is going to be me soon. I started high school so I'm hiding my metalhead side from teachers but I'll stop doing that once they get a good image of me and actually get convinced I'm respectful and a good student (which has happened already). I'm sure some will be surprised cuz they're going to be thinking that all metalheads/alternative people/anything of this sort are like yknow agressive
"I listen to a bit of everything."
"Metal?"
"Ew no it's just noise!"
"Punk?"
"What's punk?"
"Classical?"
"No that's boring."
"Ska?"

"Country?"
"Does Taylor Swift count?"
"Do you mean you listen to mainstream 'chart' music?"

"I might actually hate you."
I've been and am a huge metal head played In choirs from entering school to leaving college and love all kinds of music. I'm a huge pop lover but not the radio its soooooo annoying.
@@Falanu I agree there's great music in every genre (and sometimes defying every genre). I find it frustrating that people think the radio covers even a sliver of what's out there.
"Its just a phase. You will grow out of it."
Amazing video! I really hope you do a QnA one of these days.. I have questions..
Well this phase has lasted into my 50's, I don't think I'll grow out of it now
Dude your really rockin that Metal Devastation shirt! I've been shoppin there lately. Perfect for getting patches, cd's, spiked collars and spiked gauntlets.
Good site
Yes! Great album recommendation! I would say that that is by far GWAR's best album!
"What kind of music do you like?"
Me: "Metal"
"But you're not gothic"
Me: 😶

I related to this video real hard. My main one is when my friends and family just can’t believe I enjoy metal because “I’m a girl and way too nice to like that sort of stuff”.
Good video! Yes, I can relate to most of this list : ) I loved how you called that 'rawrr rawrr' voice "the Cookie Monster voice!" Yes! haha....
Thank you for GWAR!
Metal devastation, very nice
"All metal is satanic"
"Screaming shouldn't be in music"
"Christians can't like it, it's satanic"
"I bet you can't understand any of the lyrics"
No, yes it should when appropriate, I've been a Christian for 15 years and I go to church regularly, depending on the band I can understand 90 - 40% of the lyrics unless it's BM.
Gets old real quick..
Can’t under stand grindcore at all either
When people see your battle vest and ask "Where did you get that jacket?"
This is great! Really nailed it down! I hate it when you tell people that you listen to metal and they assume that is all you listen too. I also hate that I cannot find tshirts of the bands I like in my size, I wear a 3x-4x and it is next to impossible to find shirts. Lastly HAIL GWAR!!!!!
I find it annoying that people tell me that "you don't look like a metalhead" because I don't normally wear band t-shirts and dress in that type of apparel, but I listen to the music.
Smartguy561 I was the same way for a while! I’ve been listening to metal since high school. I’m 29 and just recently started wearing band shirts as welll as a battle vest.
@@ZJMusic1990 I'm glad someone understands where I'm coming from. I'm 43 and I've never dressed that way. I love metal music (I've been listening to it for roughly the last 30 years or so. I graduated in 1994) I'm just not interested in dressing that way, although my friends dressing that way doesn't bother me. The most important thing to being a metal head is that a person actually likes and listens to metal music. I may get some shirts of my favorite bands if I can find them at a reasonable price, but I probably won't wear them much so that I don't mess them up.
I get that at work and I'm like why just because I have short hair and glasses catch me in a revocation pit I'm definitely the type of person to listen to this.
I got band shirts and I also got blue jeans
I really enjoyed this video because I relate to what your points/views were.
Personally I really can't stand it either when people just walk up to me and touch me. Its rude and some people get really really mad. Because I wear things with spikes and i have colored hair, people find that as a pass to come up and touch me and that sends me into orbit. I don't like being touched by a stranger especially when they haven't asked if its okay. If you ask me "Hey can I touch your (hair, bracelet, etc.)" I'll most likely tell you yes because you had common sense to ASK before you started touching me. Once in Target a woman came up behind me and grabbed a handful of my hair and it scared me and I almost slapped her because it was very alarming and I didn't know her. Just use common sense. It takes you places.
I hate it when people when complete strangers touch my vest and I’ve actually threatened someone for doing so
I have physical experience with it and he almost ended up with a broken face
Great point. Also love the evil dead tatt and iron maiden posters. 2 of my fave things
I've never really gotten the "do you worship satan" and whenever I've gotten that it's usually friends just being sarcastic for laughs to which I return their sarcasm by sticking my tongue out and making my fingers horns keeping the joke going
I used to get asked that like almost every day in school.
Litterly today i was wearing a revocation shirt and my teacher walks over and tries to read it. i kid you not he was looking at my shirt without saying anything to me for like 1 minute. He then finally askes if it was a screemo band. I said "well no they are a technical death metal band but close enough" he than says if i want listen to some hard core shit i should check out "Norwegian screemo metal" i said i think you are talking about black metal. He then said no its called Norwegian screemo metal, bands like the misfits and slayer. Kill me
Ah yes, slayer the greatest Norwegian screamo metal band to ever exist
I remember when I was 11 and was told your going through a phase. I'm 53 and still going strong
People: are you Satan
Me: I'm just a "metal head"
I was wearing my pantera shirt and my friend says “you still wearing ugly shirts”
For me people think my shirts are wild especially my Ghoul shirt
I definitely agree I've had it happen to me people are so judgemental that is exactly why I pretty much stay to myself I only have five actually friends I hang out with.
Yeah your right and this video make my day
"Cookie Monster voice", that's funny. Great video, man. \m/
Getting dress coded for a dying fetus shirt
But Dying Fetus shirts can disturb people. You can wear them at festivals and concerts but don't wear them if there's a dress code. It's really inappropriate.
@@thomastibbs6358 The wise words of Havok once were FPC.
One of my annoyances is how people wear band tees even though they dont listen to the band. I've seen like 15 people with metallica tees in one day, and you can tell they just did it for the fashion
And why is that wrong? If they think a shirt looks cool they should be able to wear it.
@@MarcelVos im not saying they cant do it, its just annoying. I consider metal to be its own culture, and when a metalhead sees someone with a band tee we usually want to conversate with them. But people keep wearing them for fashion, so you can never tell who's a legit metalhead or not. It's like if a christian white lady wears a hijab cause it looks nice. Its just stealing from a culture you know nothing about
@Petrazenka I just wear band tees cause I enjoy the music. I could honestly care less about the artists for the most part, they really are just normal people
@Petrazenka plus we're all just advertisements when it comes to clothing. When you wear vans, adidas, levis or even just a plain shirt. Unless you create your own clothing, everything you wear is an ad. So if i am ganna "advertise" i'd rather advertise something that interests me
@Petrazenka i was just giving examples of brands. All im saying is that no matter what you wear, whether its from small companies, brand name, or bands, its still advertising. Hell, even a haircut could be advertising for the barbers who cut the hair
Those posters are awesome behind you btw.
Love your hair!
I find it annoying bcz as a metalhead girl, some people expect me to listen to bring me the horizon for example. Thats annoying af.Cuz i do listen to real and brutal metal.
I can't stand that band, lol!
agreed, coming from a metalhead girl
Same here
Yep! Or they think I only like this music because I think metal boys are cute.
@@Victoria-cc1hc i mean...some metalhead guy at my school is cute, but at least i listen to metal
I'm 15 and like metal and it's always so annoying whenever someone says "hey edgelord" or something like that
Good vid! I can relate to some of these all too well! Cheers!
You know what's annoying about being a metalhead? Elitism from fellow metal heads regarding their favorite bands.
I know several metalheads have experienced something like that.
"Oh you listen to metal. I love five finger death punch." 😔
Which is a metal band. But probably not trve kvlt enough for you, right?
And my day is made
"Oh, so you're into that Screamo?" RUN!!!
"oh you like metal? huaruaruorourough" is how i greet my friends tbh
My top 1 stupid question when people see my long hair is "Aren't you hot?" or "You shouldn't wear long hair, you are not a girl!"
Alex Seezov - I’m sorry man, try not to listen to them, dude. Long hair is not just for girls and A LOT of chicks dig it, which is a plus.
@@melissalbrown true, long haired guys are the best
@@melissalbrown As a girl i can confirm they look great
I don't know how useful this is, but I would recommend a braid over a ponytail. I hate having mine up in a pony. I can never get comfortable and it feels like something is pulling my head. Braids/ plaits are significantly more comfortable as long as you don't tie your hair like a pony first.
Normally I just let it loose but I recently started doing it when I walk for longs distances and I just wanted to share.
The most hilarious part about the discrimination against men with long hair is that throughout MOST OF history, men wore their hair long. The universal trend of short hair on men was actually established in the early 1800s/Victorian age. Ask any history buff(like myself) or look up old/ancient portraits and works of art featuring men from most old/ancient cultures and you will find that most men wore their hair shoulder length or longer.
It’s hard to wear Viking symbols, because my family keeps calling me a nazi
Are your family fucking brain dead? Viking symbols have 0% to do about nazis.
As a fan of Norse mythology and Norse culture (not worshipping it, just interested in the history), that is absolutely fucked.
Wtf
A "nazi" nowadays is just a native European who is somewhat proud of their heritage. It has nothing to do with Hitler, the Third Reich or the holocaust. Did Hitler do some things that was stupid? Yes. So just because Hitler did some questionable things does not mean we should not be allowed to use our symbols, be proud of our ways and support our traditional religion.
@@Templarofsteel88 It is because Viking symbols are Germanic symbols so the SS used them. Now anyone who uses them is a "nazi" and anyone European proud of their European traditions is a "nazi."
"Yeah I listen to metal I love falling in reverse and sleeping with sirens"
This is my first video I’ve watched on the channel and now I REALLY want to see the vest!!! So I’m going to see if maybe there’s a video on it somewhere!
