    Oh, yes. I remember meeting a lot of elitists of death metal and black metal back then. Though I haven't met an elitist prog-metalhead, I'm sure that he/she would be an interesting character. And I've also met the oblivious one who didn't consider Opeth metal because they weren't loud like Killswitch Engage and H.I.M.. Thinking about him kind of makes me understand the elitists I must admit... Hopefully someday metal will become sans any elitists and dummies and just be about people who love the bands and the music. Thanks for the video, Killbot!

      İ think i see actually the opposite of that where they like opeth and not like the him and killswitch engage and it's sucks both because i mean just enjoy the fucking music and don't bother anyone.

    • @ademcanvaner2567
      @ademcanvaner2567 6 років тому

      I understand both sides. I do strongly believe that there is a fine line as to what's really metal and what isn't. And, I also believe that whatever music people listen to, it should be music that they like and not specifically because it is "metal" or whatever. It should just be about what the person likes and their mood. Sometimes I listen to death/thrash/doom/black/Viking/folk/heavy/ metal, sometimes I listen to progressive/power/symphonic/gothic metal, sometimes shock rock, and sometimes I listen to Turkish and Latin pop. Really, music should just be about what makes you feel good and nothing else.

    Oh wow, that bit about not using the calculator and what the music means had me cracking up. I'm tripping on the Hayley Mills and Hayley Mills aspect of this too! Double the Killbot action. The poly-rhythm argument was gold! "I'm feeling more intelligent by the minute!" I dig that as I see what you really mean! "Good luck getting laid!" And the elitists on any spectrum. It's true. I need to write to you again about the curve balls I've thrown in the direction of Goth of, "Well, I'M getting THIS album," ... "Well, I'M getting THIS album!" and then I pursue it with something way out there in the popular-dance music realm and it's all over. XD
