RelentlessOblivion Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Re: 5 Reasons Why You Love Metal I thought you got over the little speed hump davey, it's waaaaaaay too difficult to come up with five different reasons why I love metal, bassicaly I love metal because of the feeling I get when listening to it, I love having metal there, knowing that whatever is going on in my life there is always at least one sure-fire way to cheer myself up even if it is only for a little while, I lack the eloquence to properly express exactly what goes on when I listen to metal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RelentlessOblivion Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Re: 5 Reasons Why You Love Metal couldn't hurt to expand your horizons though, check out some classic rock, blues or whatever, but don't worry in most cases the passion for metal is something that stays with you, like me I've been listening to metal for ten years now and if anything love it even more now then ever before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forge Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Re: 5 Reasons Why You Love Metal 1. Guitars! 2. You can wear your jacket *all the time* 3. Lots of excuses to visit other countries. Festivals, beer, fun! 4. Songs about dead people 5. In videos, lots of explosions and fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiakosVikernes666 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 5 Reasons Why You Love Metal The Music, the concerts, the community, the raw and brutal sounds that make you wanna bang your head till it drops. I love Metal because it's Majestic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadchampion13 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Re: 5 Reasons Why You Love Metal 1. Agreed with you forge, guitars! 2. It's not popular. I'm so sick and tired of seeing the "cool kids" get into music just because it's "cool". 3. It picks you up when you're feeling down, set you on your feet and tells you to go kick the world's ass. 4. While I don't mind songs about fast cars and women, it's nice to have metal writing about what the real world is like. Things like war, death, anger, etc... 5. Finding other metalheads makes you feel like you've found a long lost relative. Oh what kinship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RelentlessOblivion Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Re: 5 Reasons Why You Love Metal 1. the metal brotherhood, being a headbanger means you're part of a global communit who share a common interest regardless of age, race, cultural or religious differences etc we are all united by our love for all things metal 2. knowing that no matter what happens in my life I will always have metal, whatever bullshit happens in my life I can rely on metal to cheer me up, it's like a very close friend 3. the guitar playing is phenomenal and as a guitarist I can't help but gravitate towards a form of music that can seem both extremely simple and insanely complex at the same time 4. the lyrics, where else can you have songs that cover such diverse subjects as war, religion, mythical creatures, politics and works of literature 5. I just love that feeling when you have a kickass song turned up way too loud and start a one man mosh pit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molded by Metal Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 1. The feeling I get, when I hear / play, a beautifly deadly riff, with everything else in perfect lockstep. Chills! 2. When I am at a show, Im with my people. And I know, they, like me, have an ear for quality, not plastic mainstream garbage. 3. Seeing thousands of my brothers and sisters, throw those horns at the same moment, at a big fest, we are legion! 4. The history, those who paved the way, and those who are gone. Leaving each generation to hold the torch. Nowdays, when we throw those horns, DIO is with us! 5. The pride, that I can hold my head high, when idiots talk shit about my music. I know Im right, and they are wrong. Poor bastards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Symbiontas Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 1) No bitching, pussy sounds, only real instruments. 2) Concerts. 3) Musicians' dedication to metal. 4) Helps to release anger. 5) The brotherhood between metal brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Strategos Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 1. The passion and dedication of the performers. 2. The variety of the styles. 3. The extrovert energy of the music. 4. The massive lift it gives you by listening to it. 5. The fraternity (including girls). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RelentlessOblivion Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 our reasons for loving metal are all so similar, like I said the metal brotherhood we think alike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theheavymetalblogger666 Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 1. the community. we are all brothers and sisters. 2. that passion and honesty of its musicians and fans. 3, its the music of the down trodden loner social outcast. 4. its honest. saying what the fucking world is really like. 5.its rea,l passionate, music.

Molded by Metal Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 our reasons for loving metal are all so similar' date=' like I said the metal brotherhood we think alike[/quote'] Absolutely! We are all probably drawn by the same elements, and stay for the same reasons. We are loyal to certain bands, theres not as much here today, gone tomorrow. If someone had told me in 1987, that many of my favs, would still be rolling 2010 and beyond, Id have not believed. Especially Slayer, I loved them from the get go, but figured the niche was weak.

RelentlessOblivion Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I only started getting into metal in 2002 (age 12) I'd grown up with rock bands and pop rock bands to that point. looking back on it metal is probably one of if not the most important thing to have happened in my life.

miiouu Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 1. The music, of course. It makes me feel as if I can do anything. I think that's the main thing, it makes me feel good. 2. The people I've met though metal music have ended up being some of my closest friends. It's a good way to meet people and I enjoy the social aspect of it. We are like one big family. 3. The lyrics. I can relate to a lot of the songs I listen to and they make me feel like I'm not alone. 4. The clothing. Yeah, it sounds stupid, but I like the way metalheads dress. I love the leather and the denim and everything else. I'm glad that we have our own 'uniform'. 5. The many sub-genres. There's always something different to listen to. I just don't think I will ever get bored of metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fallen_Angel Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 1. The Adrenaline rush of a live show 2. The pure excitement just one band can cause 3. The community are awesome people, we're not all douchebags like some people think we are. 4. The feeling of being part of something bigger 5. It helps me to relax (surprisingly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostaudn Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 1. There is always a song in metal that will fit your mood. 2. The community, everyone is so kind to each other. And also the people I've met through metal, like miiou already said, wich I became good friends with. 3. Just that feeling when you put a really nice song on the loudest possible volume. 4. Concerts and festivals. 5. The use of real instruments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idlewilde Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 1. It gives me a lot of energy.It gives me a good boost to go through a hard day! 2. Since I like mostly positive metal bands (I reserve the depressive stuff for other styles) I'd say metal brings a lot of joy in my life 3. The gigs/fests give me the possibility to explode and be crazy 4. The whole metal subculture. I mean, those are the coolest people ever and whenever you see a person that likes the same band you do you'll get some appreciation and friendliness 5. The rebellious, mischievous and free spirit of the music. I'm a freedom loving person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
