What's some actually good nu-male core, like The Angelic Process and Panopticon?

...

I'M GOING TO CUM ON YOU IF YOU DONT STOP WITH THIS SHIT

Panopticon is pure garbage. Good nu-male core is Burzum and Gorguts.

Bergtatt

Can we stop with this nu-male crap?

It won't stop until this general is purged of any nu-males.

>pre-reign slayer is the best... I'm 13 y.o. and I think I was born in the wrong generation... first wave black meetol rulez! xD fenriz told me so!

me but im old

>slayer
>first wave black metal

>not realizing that first wave was just satan thrash

>being this stupid

I believe you. I believe you'll cum if someone so much as look at you in the eye.

This is truth

I'm a christian, what are some good non-satan black metal?

It was though
>taking an ironic post to the letter

Deathspell Omega

Is Blind Guardian nu-male?

>power metal
take a guess

You tell me

they're fedora, but not nu-male

Black metal was just satan thrash/death back in the 80's, but the term first wave black metal didn't exist back then so is inherently retrospective. Looking back, Slayer is not first wave black metal in the same way as Hellhammer, Bathory, Sodom, or even Venom.

post nu-male repellents

keep forcing this meme, maybe it'll stick eventually

when the FUCK will devvy do another causalities of cool

Black metal isn't for you. Sorry.

Who's your favourite '80s shredder, Sup Forums?

You're beyond salvation

Oh boy, it sure is summer around here

You're dumb.

If you think a) I'm the only one who posts these and b) that it's a new thing that I need to force then, well, I hope you enjoy your vacation.

samefag

At least I'm self-aware

Is this considered to be metal?

Sure, guy.
No, it's classic butt rock.

:((((((((((((

Explain this.

ok now you've lost me, McCain
as far as most people are concerned neckbeard m'lady muh atheism kinda fags aren't the same as numales. Not saying you can't be both, because of course you can. And I do mean specifically you

I wasn't that guy, I wanted you to explain both nu-male and fedora to me. I get what both of them are as concepts, but I don't see how they apply to the music.

Does anybody around here like death metal?

“Nu-male” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).

You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “nu-male” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “nu-male” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy nu-males!” - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a nu-male; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

t. numale

>I don't see how they apply to the music
Then there's still hope for you. Leave, and never come back. You can save yourself.

t. butthurt numale trying to disarm the meem

I'm a nu-male and I'm tired of everyone pretending it matters or that I'm less worth as a person because of it. You can all meme yourselves out of existence, doesn't change the fact that we're pretty much where humanity is headed. Yeah I might be a cucked BLACKED pegged manlet piece of shit, but soon enough everyone will be. And those disgusting, fat, triggered tumblr SJW "females" with a title in imaginary taxonomy are also the future.

It's awful and I hate it, but it's inevitable. I'm a nu-male, that's right. I listen to feelsy post-avant-atmoblackgaze and like putting things up my arse and whatever. As I said, soon enough we all will be.

Except the lucky ones who can muster enough courage to end their lives, but of course, being a nu-male, I will never know courage in my entire, possibly obscenely long life.

Pic related, it's my favourite album of all times. It gives me *mmmuh feels*

Wooo, more copypasta

Show No Mercy and Haunting the Chapel kind of are first wave black metal, if only because of Slayer's image back then and how Slayer was associated with the /speed/ metal scene in the early eighties.

Jesus man, did your wife's son refuse to say hi to you because he saw you unsubscribed from r/atheism?

Nu-males are a real thing I just don't see how based Blind Guardian qualifies.

the absolute irony of this post while people meanwhile are calling out summer itt lol

Amerifags were so ingrate to the european extreme metal scene. They hurt Tom's feelings.

The only irony here is people trying to stop the meme posting turning into memes

This is going to end, right here, right now.

nu-male metal
>rock oriented
>soft and accessible
>muh feels
neckbeard metal
>epic
>fantasy lyrics
>muh technicality

nu-males hate fantasy themes, hate cheese and hate hi-fi production, power metal has all of those, thus not a nu-male genre

>it's a retards respond to bait and then cause more bait to be posted episode

you misunderstand the dialectic, everything is done to end of memes already

Sadly, it's come to this.

spot the crypto-numale

See the irony, feel it with your meaty hands

>neckbeard metal
>>epic
>>fantasy lyrics
>>muh technicality

Yeah I guess a lot of ledditors appreciate this kind of music, but so do a lot of non-neckbeards.

Does the audience now define the artist?

wHaT iS tHiS mAdNEsS?

NUMALES vs. FEDORAS 2017

FIGHT!!!!!!!!

>Does the audience now define the artist?
It's always been this way, faggot

Summer is out in full force.

>ledditors
>wHaT iS tHiS mAdNEsS?
Nice try. Numales are intrinsically non-violent and fedoras can't move themselves without assistance.

read barthe's death of the author and then criticism of it

>wHaT iS tHiS mAdNEsS?
This is sad. Do you have a yt account where you upload hundreds of YLYL I DARE U NOT TO LAFF XDD videos perchance?

>>Does the audience now define the artist?
>It's always been this way, faggot

Then every artist ever discussed on this board is a pretentious piece of shit, or someone that lives for solely memetic gain.

Oy vey, now everything is shit.

Is that the grand lesson of this board?

>All music is shit because every single one of you is a whiny shitlord?

>oy vey
>shitlord
hnnnnnnng

Too advanced.
You're not yet out of the cave, but at least you're not arguing with the other chained fucks about whether that was a vase or someone's head.

On this episode of: user is a bait connoisseur.....

You have to go back.

Lead me to the mouth of the cave, please....

At least show me where to look.

>Too advanced
on second thought i'm inclined to agree if only on the premise of it being a person asking about the hermeneutics of power metal :^)

>meaningless
It has a meaning
Mostly that you embody the feminist ideal of a man rather than a traditional ideal of a man
If you think giving the women a right to vote was bad just wait and see how bad masculinity can get when women have a say in it's definition

But what does this have to do with Kamelot?

Stop shitposting and post music, fucking faggots.

I miss the days when we shitposted about riffs vs. atmoshit

...

Do you remember when everybody was shitposting about eating cum? Those were the good ole days.

same shit different name

the 'other' used to be hipsters a decade ago when wittr and electric wizard were flavor of the board, then riffs vs atmo to represent the two sides of the coin as the 'other', now 'nu-male' is the 'other'

the faster you adopt a jaded cynicism to the ephemeral monikers of whatever is fundamentally the 'other' the faster it really does become meaningless

>I miss the days when we shitposted about riffs vs. atmoshit
It's the same exact thing, just replace atmoshit with nu male

Can I get some recs for riffy/melodic blackmetal?

Remember me, /metal/?
Tarnkappe

Always

I don't know, Slayer's first album sounds like something Norway would later take for their inspiration along with the rest of first wave bands.

It's not like Slayer didn't have any influence, but obviously not nearly to the same level as the most recognized first wave bands. If you added Slayer, you would also have to lump in a bunch of other thrash bands the aren't really associated.

people that aren't pedantic already do that. Just because early Slayer and other dirty thrash on the peripheral of influence for early first wave like Kreator or Destruction are considered as such doesn't mean they aren't also squarely thrash. Genre considerations are on a spectrum, not in clear cut delineations.

>Just because early Slayer and other dirty thrash on the peripheral of influence for early first wave like Kreator or Destruction are considered as such doesn't mean they aren't also squarely thrash.
Huh?

Wow what's wrong with being a nu-male they seem like they have good taste

That's a gay cover
