[QUOTE=Kwash2]Wait.

meant fallenstar man got nothin against you, just poser thread nazis like him

people who wear ramones shirts but cant name one ramones song except "hey ho lets go", which is actually called blitzkreig (sp?) bop

one thing thats annoying is having to hate stuff you once liked becuase a ton of posers are in to it and you dont wont to be associated with them

Posers are lame........like this kid mike the first thing he said 2 me was " all my cars are Europian! " and then sneered at me

Listen Slipknot did not sell out,if anything they did the opposite because they are making music that actually allowed them to expand beyond one-fingered-power chords and music aboud how much they hate the world.I consider the last Slipknot album to be a very nice slice of work and has been in constant rotation since it came out.

Now I feel torn,I will be called a poser if I only talk about Slipknot.But I will also be called a poser if I post some "real" metal bands to prove that I am not poser.And when people see this,they will think that I am worrying and that I am only worrying because I am poser.What to do what to do.

Anyway,my perfect example of a "poser"

Me:So what kind of music are you into?
Poser:I like hard rock and heavy metal.Stuff like that.
Me:Oh really?Me too.Like what bands?
P:Oh you know,heavy underground bands like Godsmack and Disturbed
OR!
Me:Oh nice shirt.I love Tool.They are my favorite band.
P:Oh thanks.I don't really listen to them though.I just bought the shirt at Hot Topic because I thought the design was cool.

I feel your pain, son.
I have loved ratm for as long as i can remember and i was listening to them on my ipod in physics once, some clown came over.
"What are you listening to?"
"Rage against the Machine"
"Wow awesome! They're my favourite band!"
"Really, how cool, what's your favourite album?" (I was thinking this guy was kinda cool but I was a bit suspicious)
"Uhhhh....their first one rocked"
"Evil Empire?"
"Yeah"
I put my earphone back in...

How about the masses of people who think "the black album" (really called Metallica) is the first Metallica album?

[QUOTE=fallenstar]I have some pretty good ideas what a poser is, but I want to hear from you posters. What do posers act like. What is really a poser. Why do people hate em, so\\ much. What do you think of posers. Please post your Ideas.(thanks) :smash: :evil: :evil: :evil: then :cool:[/QUOTE]

See: Avril Lavigne

i think posers are people who wear clothes of bands they dont really know or like,they just wear it to fit in or be cool.or do anything to fit in and be cool not just having to do with music.thats my opinion.

i think posers are people are not being themselves to be unique/different, but really they are not unique. and also....music-wise.....posers care more about the image or being "hardcore" than the actual music itself.

My definition of poser: (by the way-true story)

"I love Led Zeppelin!"

/puts on Babe im gonna leave you

"Eeww who is this?"

EX2-(also actually happened)

"Im a metalhead, too. I listen to SLipknot, Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, and ICP"

[QUOTE=phantomoftheopera]See: Avril Lavigne[/QUOTE]

Another perfect example

[QUOTE=fallenstar]Slipknot makes poser songs just to make money. Thier good stuff isnt even on a cd like the song Pulse of the maggots. So thats why thier sellouts and posers listen to them.[/QUOTE]
Posers don't listen to them, I will admit that their new album had a lot of bull**** on it like (Vermillion pt.1,2) I liked their other albums Iowa, Slipknot, and Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat. though and I'm not a poser. Watch your mouth before you get your *** kicked.

[QUOTE]Exactly. Posers look toward the mainstream or.. 'popular' thing.[/QUOTE]

Too vague. If that person really does like mainstream music, they're not a poser.

[QUOTE]Yeah, you always now it's a poser when they tell you they don't just listen to Dimmu, and then list like one classic album like "In the Nightside eclipse" and it's obvious that they've never heard it.[/QUOTE]

So what? Someone has to introduce it to them.

[QUOTE]-People who simply download music, never buy any albums, and yet still claim to love a certain band.[/QUOTE]

I have downloaded many discographies of bands that I love, never buying one of their albums. Keep in my mind that I love many bands and if I was to buy an album of every band I loved, I'd be out of cash. Also, other factors come into play, such as availability, etc, not to mention artists make minimal profir off album sales. I would much rather support them by checking out one of their shows or buying merch.

[QUOTE]It's spelled POSEUR.[/QUOTE]

And poser.

[QUOTE]lmao, I have a new prime example of a poser. I was just in a rock chatroom, and the question was "Which rock band are you addicted to at the moment" and then I saw one girl's answer "Maroon 5". I don't think I have to say anything more.[/QUOTE]

I think they're a rock band. They may not be the best band of the genre (or even close), but they're still rock. Music is subjective, and if she truely likes them, she is by no means a poser, just a person stating their opinion.

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]Anyway, i kind of think an elitist and a poser are the same thing...they are both unyielding in their efforts to spread "good" music to people (which often isn't good music).[/QUOTE]
Not really (though they both can be pricks at times). If you're going by the definition of elitist I think you are (pretentious f'ucks who think their music is the best and that only a select few can listen to it) then being an elitist is not the same as being a poser. The former singer Dead of influential Norwegian black metal band once said in remark to the popularity of death metal "Some imagine for some weird reason that death metal is something normal and available for everyone. If you go into an ordinary school, you will sruely see half of thechildren wearing Morbid Angel, Autopsy, and Entombed shirts, and once again I will vomit! [B]Death black metal is something all ordinary mortals should fear, not make into a trend![/B]" Now if that's not elitism I don't know what is, and he was by no means a poser, a little quirky and evil but by no means a poser.

Posers are people who have no personality of their own so they try to steal from either punk or hiphop culture.

[QUOTE=basschick52892]Posers are people who have no personality of their own so they try to steal from either punk or hiphop culture.[/QUOTE]

You can have posers in all sorts of genres...not just those 2.

Pop - well, basically ALL pop bands are posers...however, Ashlee Simpson takes being a poser to the extreme. Almost exact same song structure, and she doesn't even sing it live. What a bitch.

Jazz - Kenny G. Most mass produced, undertalented crap I've ever heard. This guy should be shot.

Rap - Any modern rap artist who sticks to the "conventions" of the music: bling-bling, hoes, guns, pimpin, what have you.

Metal - You've seen these people before. Colored hair, Slipknot/ICP tshirts, multi wristbands...and they think that they are the coolest kids in the world. Now, i happen to like Slipknot, but I'm not bragging about how i listen to them and i think that they are god. These people do, and this is what brings REAL metalheads their bad rep.

My 2 cents... :)

Posers a stupid word. I dont even know exactly what the hell it means

It has various meanings, it depends on what subject. With skateboarding, if you wear skate brand clothes and you don't actually skate, it is taken harshly and you're considered a poser.

With metal, if you listen to bands that are geared toward mainstream (nu metal mostly) and you think that you're a "hardkore metul dood 666 \m/", then I would consider that a "poser".

In broad terms, it is a person who claims to adhere to a certain lifestyle when they only know surface material of that certain lifestyle and they don't actually commit to the lifestyle.
