How do I actually get into metal without being a poser? I've listened to a shit ton of metal but I've never actual read any magazines, browsed any metal oriented websites, ever been to a concert, and have no metalhead friends.
I've lived in the country all my life, I live 50 miles from the nearest "city" where music venues and long-haired people would roam.
I don't go to school or college so there is no means of me meeting people.
I think I'll just remain alone.
Why is he so fucking cute
also First Wave = Best Wave

listen to this
Make the drive to shows. Back in college I used to drive 2 hours to the big city in my state when I really wanted to see something. Start smoking and hanging out in the smoke pit between sets.
My dude, you are in literally the same posistion as me as far as area goes and not having any metalhead friends. I almost never leave my house.
That being said, just find some stuff online that you like, and try to dig into it as hard as you can. Pick a genre, start listening to the albums that defined the genre, ask for recs, do whatever the fuck you feel like really. I've been listening to metal for like 7 years now and I've explored enough bands to put anyone I've ever met IRL who is into metal to shame and I've never even been to a concert
It's better to be a metal fan and not look like a metalhead neck-beard. Just keep it to yourself and go to concerts if you can. Tbh other peoples taste in metal irl are terrible. Always meloshit they like.
Reminder that Show No Mercy is a shameless Metallica ripoff
hey to that guy who told me to listen to the somberlain
thanks I'm really enjoying it
Reminder that KEA is a shameless Diamond Head ripoff
The Somberlain has better songwiting than SotLB and that's an indisputable fact.
yeah but the album art is better on storm's light
And the title too. The fuck is a somberlain anyway?
I don't even know dude, all I know is I love necrolord's art either way
Storm is more consistent even if it reaches lower peaks overall. Somberlain suffers slightly from 'first album compilation' syndrome, in which the demo tracks don't quite measure up to the grandeur of the two masterpieces that open the record. Obviously they're all still really good songs, but the album feels really frontloaded. I have similar issues with Left Hand Path and Nær Sólen Gar Niþer for Evogher.
Post your gays
i cannot fathom why someone would like to wear the metalhead uniform
as if it's impossible to like metal and dress like a well-adjusted human
Can ya rec me some funk metal pls
How's the new Spectral Voice record?
a 50 mile drive isn't shit faggot , you're just a poseur tourist
More like this?
Infectious grooves
+All that GTT, Havukruuni, Bathory
It's alright, it's pretty solid Death/Doom, only complaint is that it has more lulls than I'd care for, but it's still good
it rips
Don’t they have a new album
Become a black metal weirdo like striborg
who HYPE?
Oh reallyy??
I thought about doing this but despite being a reclusive loner, I don't actually like black metal or dark ambient music. If you asked me what my favorite black metal band was I'd say mercyful fate.
Why don’t you just give up on metal sweetie
just start listening dude
not hard, just try a few entry level albums for genres you think you'd like and go from there depending on what you like the most
Who you callin sweetie?
I'm already way past that point. I also spent an absurd amount of my life playing guitar and have nothing to show for it either. I want to take it to the next level.
If you want to take listening to the next level just look up a bunch of demos from countries that no one fucking cares about, or look into underground scenes etc.
If you want I can give you lists with plenty of shit on it
>How do I actually get into metal without being a poser?
Being a poser is a state of mind. It's pretending to be something you're not and that's about it.
This is nothing exclusive to metal.
I see you like metal and want to socialize with other people who share the interest. That's not poser behavior. Listening to meloshit, atmoshit, doom, sludge, wackencore, Pantera and post-'80s Chuck Schuldiner is poser behavior.
Remember to never take narcotics from people who didn't grow/make it themselves and not to smoke the marijuana plant if you have anxiety issues.
If you call it a "wave", you're a dickhead. Great list though.
This is bad advice. I recommend not smoking tobacco due to the health risk.
You probably wear turtlenecks.
people who wear turtlenecks
start a watain thread on nwn
bad post
Turtlenecks make my neck itch
>Being a poser is a state of mind.
You'd know
Nice I saw them play live last week, but I'm still waiting for my preorder.
Also here's my month.
Are you aware of the new GTT ep btw?
>post-'80s Chuck Schuldiner
the only thing wrong with this post
Same. There's really no point to turtlenecks really, a scarf does the jobaAnd you don't look like a jazz cat.
Are you seriously calling me a poser? Explain yourself.
>Listening to meloshit, atmoshit, doom, sludge, wackencore, Pantera and post-'80s Chuck Schuldiner is poser behavior.
This is why people hate metal fans so much, people like you are so inclusive and obnoxious. Just shut the fuck up.
Yes! but I have to check it out. I liked the drumming on the last Full length. Is it any good?
reminder that blackened thrash is the trvest genre

Your reddit spacing, faggy lifestyle preaching, fixation on turtlenecks, dislike of mid-late period Death and general tone.
>album has more than 20 songs
It's fairly electronic, which makes sense considering Mories has been experimenting more on that side of things, such as with Offerbest, has a really strong ritual sense to it as well. If any
>replying to every single post
>reddit spacing
kys
Of his other projects I've only listened to De Magia Veterum. And I do like his more industrial stuff from GTT. Thanks for this. I'll give it a listen.
You're definitely going to want to listen to Offerbeest and Aderlating, Offerbeest is like electronic industrial type stuff with really seedy and disgusting themes. Aderlating is some prime ambient with elements of black metal in it, listen to both of the Spear of Gold and Seraphim Bone albums
I'm really, really disappointed you think that way. All I can tell you is that you are wrong on every account. If you got to know me, you'd know better. This is the problem with 21st century style of communication.
By "faggy lifestyle preaching", you probably mean my advocacy against tobacco and harmful drugs. Drugs and tobacco will not make you "cool", they will only damage your body and mind. Be responsible now or regret it later!!!
You have to be a grade A faggot call something "blackened".
>longest song bare tops a minute
I don't do drugs nor do I smoke. I'm just talking about how if you like certain genres of metal that makes you a "poser." People should just like what they like and not have to like something in order to fit in. If anything you're condoning being a poser, so just shut the fuck up.
Not caring about your health is prime metal status though
>Be responsible now or regret it later
least metal thing ITT
I'd be surprised if poser anxiety was common in such a diverse and trend heavy scene. Having friends with similar taste can help, but you got to make an effort.
Thanks. I'll put these on my list.
Absolutely wrong. This person asked how not to be a poser - I gave a very direct answer. A metalhead should not listen to certain things, this is very clear. This lackadaisical attitude is why In Flames fans exist. Why resort to violence later instead of removing poserdom now before it becomes too late?
This is false! Strong body = strong spirit. Do not ignore your carnal temple.
The temptation may be high, especially if you are at a social outing with fellow headbangers who chose the path of smoking and illegal narcotics. This problem is rampant in the scene! Do not become another statistic. Your friends may grumble, but you will find they will grow to respect you for a strong, responsible attitude. Be an example.
I find a good book inspires imagination in a way marijuana never can. And I find vaping is a healthier alternative for nicotine cravings.
I'm already long gone down the path of drug addiction. And honestly it's not that much different than normal life besides I get high a lot more than people who don't

>Be responsible now or regret it later!!!
Doubling down, I gotta respect that. I don't smoke tobacco anymore and haven't touched a pot in six years but the smoke pit is a great way to meet people at concerts, sort of like networking. Giving somebody a light or bumming a smoke is a great conversation starter. 4-5 smokes every now and then at a concert isn't gonna affect his health but will help him socially. It's not about being cool, it's about meeting people. And I'm not wrong about the reddit spacing.

Please reconsider. After a long period of being addicted to narcotics, you forget how normal even feels like. You may even damage your brain permanently. Do you think there is a particular moment when your brain informs you "Yes, I am in fact damaged now". No! It may just sneak up on you.
Even marijuana is not what it used to be. It's not your parent's weed! The stuff making the rounds on the street is far more potent in THC and can cause anxiety and depersonalization. Over the years, the damage becomes permanent.
And even if you buy into the narrative that drugs are perfectly safe - you are not considering intentional and unintentional lacing of the product. God only knows what you are really taking unless you make the stuff yourself! Even if the grower is somebody you know who consumes what he makes, neither you or him are experts on safe manufacture or storing. There are no safety standards for narcotics!
Yes, everything we consume has an effect on our body as well as our mind. Moderation is important in all things. But certain things are too potent and are simply beyond moderation.
>Doubling down, I gotta respect that. I don't smoke tobacco anymore and haven't touched a pot in six years but the smoke pit is a great way to meet people at concerts, sort of like networking.
I admit I have smoked tobacco as well. Never again. I have even consumed pot and I wov never to repeat the mistake. It is unfortunate that social dynamics in underground metal (and indeed many other social scenes) revolves around all these harmful things.
Peace out brother. I do not know what reddit spacing is and I'm sorry if it offended you. I am new to the Sup Forums communities and I like it very much so far. Plenty of cool young people just hanging out and having fun online. I find I'm falling in love with internet culture and I'm even considering getting into this Japanese animation that seems to be very popular around here. Do you know of any good titles?
Ufomammut has some droney stuff
pretty sure i gave that a 2.5/5 not really sure what people see in this band t b h
Monarch, Black Boned Angel, Zebulon Kosted, The Angelic Process
Are you copy pasting DARE or what, I've done more drugs than you can probably name my dude. I keep my intake fairly limited now a days (comparatively at least) and I can tell you that aside from the psychological addictiveness I've got nothing else going on (luckily)
I fucking hate that band, I have no idea how they were ever liked.
>Plenty of cool young people just hanging out and having fun online.
You must be an FBI agent or something
if by droney you mean "every single album and song after 2008 sound the exact same" sure
Thanks user
yeah, so drone
I do not know what DARE is. Now, I'm not a psychologist or anything, but I'm not surprised to find that a drug addict is into atmoshit music. You consume narcotics and fool yourself into believing there's more going on in the music than there is. This is false, a power chord is just a power chord.
You do not even know what you have going on! You have to be sober to know that. The Angelic Process is not a good band, there is sometimes a dude singing on there and it sounds exactly like Neige from the french atmoshit band Alcest. How is that metal? The snare sounds like a car door! How is that metal?
No, absolutely not. Why would you suggest that? Did somebody tell you that?
+1 for that ahab album, really great
>only half of them scrobble because they're too short
Why are you trying this hard
What is some essential wackencore?
