promiseswept 04.14.11	Fully prepared for "you just don't get it" "you aren't trying hard enough" "you are ignorant" etc

captaincrunch11 04.14.11	needs more church burning.
WashboardSuds 04.14.11	needs moar birch churning
MoosechriS 04.14.11	Hahahahaha this will get intresting. I love the genre myself and each to their own wih their opinions dude. But i can't see some people on here taking this lightly lol. Yeah your stereotypes are true in some cases but like every genre with its detractors, there will always be characteristics that pepople will love or loahe about a genre.
acorncheese 04.14.11	dammit, another list about black metal?
Motiv3 04.14.11	needs moar bitch burning.
AngelofDeath 04.14.11	Should've put Immortal next to 4.
acorncheese 04.14.11	people make lists like these just because they wanna be the one who starts the next triple digit comments list.
promiseswept 04.14.11	acorncheese- I couldn't resist! and of course people will have opinions, this is mine haha. needs more bible ripping
promiseswept 04.14.11	acorn cheese- also known as killing time at work
promiseswept 04.14.11	moosechris- totally agree. I like metalcore a lot and most of people's stereotypes about it are completely right
Motiv3 04.14.11	this list is like an invitation for Hawks to get butthurt again and Oathbreaker to start another stupid argument with someone only to deny it was directed at them in the first place.
snerefedsav 04.14.11	yeah black metal's pretty gay, not gonna lie haha. a genre i can't really get that into, though i do like several bands in the genre
captaincrunch11 04.14.11	Needs more BURZUM RAAAAAAAWRRRR
Emim 04.14.11	You're going to get a mention in Hawk's hiatus list. Or butcheredchildren making a list of essential black metal albums. And damn it if I don't know which is worse.
promiseswept 04.14.11	motiv- word
promiseswept 04.14.11	emim- hahaha i'll eagerly wait
TheSpirit 04.14.11	these are all basically true i guess it's just whether you chose to let these things get to your or not.
promiseswept 04.14.11	thespirit- they do get to me ha. I just can't do the bad production. too annoying. that's honestly my #1 on this list
Tyrael 04.14.11	A lot of BM bands have bad production because their albums were so low budget. The black and white covers were a reaction to the flashy colors that death metal albums were boasting in the 90's. Oh and this is again a generalisation because a lot of BM bands don't fit any or just a few of the stereotypes you present on this list. /endrant
Gmork89 04.14.11	You just don't get it.
promiseswept 04.14.11	for sure I can understand that.
Mr_Coffee 04.14.11	BURZUM
Gmork89 04.14.11	I don't understand why you have a comb-over, but I'm not going to make a list about it.
flalafell 04.14.11	lol black metal
Crysis 04.14.11	this is getting old
promiseswept 04.14.11	not a combover bro hahaha
Gmork89 04.14.11	If you were 50 and not 12 it would be.
promiseswept 04.14.11	hahahahahahahaha
promiseswept 04.14.11	I'm 8 dumbass
ZippaThaRippa 04.14.11	I have that same shirt, only red and black
Oathbreaker 04.14.11	Can't stop laughing at your ratings so I can't really think of a good reply to your stupid list. Oh look I played the ratings card.
ZippaThaRippa 04.14.11	Oh look, you're a fag
promiseswept 04.14.11	detriment- SNAP look at you with the impeccable reasoning
promiseswept 04.14.11	oathbreaker- yeahhh zippa pretty much nailed it. and if you are laughing at ratings you must have one terrible sense of humor
Motiv3 04.14.11	lol Oathbreaker stfu already. Sup Zip, havent seen u for a while, how u been.
ZippaThaRippa 04.14.11	We'd get along
promiseswept 04.14.11	sonic- no not really
promiseswept 04.14.11	detriment- again with the flawless comebacks
promiseswept 04.14.11	hahaha okay not going to lie, yes it could be. actually got it from endwell, which is a hardcore band now
promiseswept 04.14.11	and fuck yeah I look like I'm into metalcore
BallsToTheWall 04.14.11	you forgot catchy stage names based in norse mythology and or other forms of history.
Wolfhorde 04.14.11	5 is not negative. Also don't bash the gays when you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord.
promiseswept 04.14.11	balls- a worthy contribution wolfhorde- make a list about it :)
Oathbreaker 04.14.11	"you forgot catchy stage names based in norse mythology and or other forms of history." And Tolkien.
promiseswept 04.14.11	gorgoroth
Oathbreaker 04.14.11	you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord you look like a fucking post-hxc gaylord
Wolfhorde 04.14.11	No. I've got nothing against gay people. I just don't like people acting like homophobics when they look like whiney blokes.
promiseswept 04.14.11	oathbreaker- your argument is invalid
promiseswept 04.14.11	wolfhorde- I'm anything but a homophobic, one of my favorite coworkers is gay haha. gay=something not cool
Motiv3 04.14.11	'gorgoroth' win.
promiseswept 04.14.11	motiv- fuck yeah. double win
Crysis 04.14.11	i like my cornflakes............. CRRRRRRRRISPY
Wolfhorde 04.14.11	Moar like gaygoroth. srlsy. Actually being gay is so fucking satan.

Oathbreaker 04.14.11	http://www.burzum.org/eng/library/a_burzum_story01.shtml
dnor 04.14.11	#FuckBlackMetal Dnor out.
Motiv3 04.14.11	that totally needs to be an alt.
TheSpirit 04.14.11	tyraelxy - he said in the first one that these stereotypes don't apply to all bands - that probably goes for each catagory
rjmunthe 04.14.11	bro u don't get the music it's deep
TheSpirit 04.14.11	sonicthedumber
Hyperion1001 04.14.11	So many people don't know how to satan...
rjmunthe 04.14.11	yes u make a funny
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	ignoring the other reasons this list is stupid, why is Wintersun even on this list?
TheSpirit 04.14.11	wintersun is pretty godawful
TheSpirit 04.14.11	also is in direct conflict with stereotype #1...way to drive it home
TheSpirit 04.14.11	true
flalafell 04.14.11	"wintersun is pretty godawful" whoa whoa whoa lets not get carried away now
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	he couldn't think of a 5th BM record so he decided to throw on a power metal record?
rjmunthe 04.14.11	how is poor production a trademark of black metal, btw, for all you black metal fans that's just laziness and/or lack of money from being so shitty
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	it also seems a little counter-intuitive to point out genre pioneers like darkthrone and celtic frost as bands adhering to stereotypes
rjmunthe 04.14.11	but sonic, i kinda like wintersun. and they're power metal...
Hyperion1001 04.14.11	No wintersun is power black death avantgard progressive folk viking melodic metal, get it right fags.
Oathbreaker 04.14.11	Don't forget the tag "majestic".
KILL 04.14.11	metal on metal
rjmunthe 04.14.11	dragonforce discuss
TheSpirit 04.14.11	"how is poor production a trademark of black metal, btw, for all you black metal fans that's just laziness and/or lack of money from being so shitty" atmosphere man
ffs 04.14.11	Great List. All These Bands Are Satan & Rule. Stay Metal My Brother...
KILL 04.14.11	anvil
rjmunthe 04.14.11	@thespirit u serious? hahahahahahahahahahahaha
rjmunthe 04.14.11	cold and barren = f#a# godspeed black metal is definitely not cold and barren. sounds like someone was farting on a microphone for 4 minutes.
0vrot 04.14.11	Necroproduction Kvlt
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	why do people throw around the term "good" production as synonymous with crystal clear modern production? as an audio engineer, I feel successful production is when you help a band develop a sound that suits their material. good production is NOT making everything sound like it was mixed by Andy Wallace
KILL 04.14.11	rjmunthe is wizards alt
rjmunthe 04.14.11	so, someone snoring? i mean, usually unless people snore/talk in their sleep they don't make any noise, and i'm quite sure that godspeed has a sound spectrum other than "dundundundunBAAAHAHHHHHHH" which could be directly related to the sound of someone having a bad fart
UnnamedOcean 04.14.11	Granted there is a difference between good production and, well, radio-esque production. But sounding like trash cans still isn't good.
dnor 04.14.11	I feel that if the sound you're going for, or that fits your material, is production of this quality...it's not meant to be enjoyable material in the first place. #Opinions dnor out.
rjmunthe 04.14.11	the first two posts above detriment's are case closed
0vrot 04.14.11	Lich King - Black Metal Sucks
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	and rjmunthe even as a big fan of godspeed, the performances on F# A# Infinity are sloppy as fuck and the production is just as lo-fi and DIY sounding as traditional BM production. just listen to when the drums come in during east hastings... few, if any, modern producers would have let that drum sound fly on a record
rjmunthe 04.14.11	no they really are. why make your production unpleasant unless you want your music to be unpleasant which equals not enjoyable and, uh, if the dead flag blues has bad production, i certainly don't hear it on my grado headphones
rjmunthe 04.14.11	so do u like st. anger as well
rjmunthe 04.14.11	oh u should. shitty repetitive music with shitty screaming and awful production. just st. anger
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	the production on St. Anger doesn't suit the material, therefore it sucks. the production on F# A# Infinity, and on BM albums I like, suits the material and augments their mood, and is therefore good production, despite the fact that both feature very lo-fi, DIY produciton
TheSpirit 04.14.11	if you don't like it don't listen - too simple, i know.
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	also, what exactly is the point of mentioning your grado headphones? i could be listening to transylvanian hunger on high end mid-field monitors and running through a 10000$ DAC, and that wouldn't make my opinion on the quality of the production anything more than just my opinion
rjmunthe 04.14.11	my point was that the production of f#a# doesn't suck
TheSpirit 04.14.11	our point is you're a giant bundle of sticks, bye
Oathbreaker 04.14.11	"our point is you're a giant bundle of sticks, bye" Well said.
rjmunthe 04.14.11	our? what are you two homos? i think the fact that most people dislike black metal that aren't from norway proves my point kthnxbye
twlight 04.14.11	these stereotypes are true, black metal and its fans that think its so amazing really annoys me
rjmunthe 04.14.11	^^ yup
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	"i think the fact that most people dislike black metal that aren't from norway proves my point kthnxbye" logical fallacies FTW
BigHans 04.14.11	black metal sucks
Itwasthatwas 04.14.11	he obviously has no idea what he's talking about when it comes to black metal, or audio engineering, and so I'm forced to conclude he's either a complete fucking idiot or just trolling us
Oathbreaker 04.14.11	lol Hans.
twlight 04.14.11	black metal sucks [2]
TheSpirit 04.14.11	twlichty sucks
rjmunthe 04.14.11	just trolling that's what i do, you should check out my other threads i post in i love trolling black metallers
TheSpirit 04.14.11	oh man you're trolling us SO hard
rjmunthe 04.14.11	you keep replying so obviously it's working

BigHans 04.14.11	Im so fucking KVLT
DeafMetal 04.15.11	You should make a list called "scene kid stereotypes" so that you'd be more knowledgeable than you are about genres that are too elite for you.
Trebor. 04.15.11	You tell him DeafMetal.
beefshoes 04.15.11	Since when has 5 been black metal?
Vesper 04.15.11	Yes, I'm sure you exist for a reason too.
DeafMetal 04.15.11	Looks like I already did.
Ire 04.15.11	lets neg his reviews and post his fb account and rape him oopsy
DeafMetal 04.15.11	And then burn his church down oopsy
Ire 04.15.11	oopsy
foreverendeared 04.15.11	Drudkh pretty much avoid every single one of these stereotypes except the "nature" part, but they do it in a way that's not corny.
DeafMetal 04.15.11	and then steal his weed... all while blasting sarcofago and beherit
Ire 04.15.11	blast grand belials key and leave him in a room with dryden
tkxxx7 04.15.11	hey you look a little like Craig Owens don't hurt me

Hawks 04.15.11	"and then steal his weed... all while blasting sarcofago and beherit" I'm in.
tkxxx7 04.15.11	well women aren't good at making much besides... well actually there's a lot of different kinds of food out there so nevermind
Hawks 04.15.11	Tk just made the greatest post ever.
ShadowRemains 04.15.11	wah wah wah production wah wah wah
Wolfhorde 04.15.11	"Drudkh pretty much avoid every single one of these stereotypes except the "nature" part, but they do it in a way that's not corny." There at least over 100 bands that don't fit.
foreverendeared 04.15.11	I guess, I'm not sure. I can only think of about 3 or 4 that don't have at least one of these stereotypes attached to them.
Trebor. 04.15.11	What about black metalhead stereotypes?
DeafMetal 04.15.11	hm?
Vesper 04.15.11	"leave him in a room with dryden" I support this.
sixdegrees 02.03.19	cold hard truth
