It takes a truly intelligent person to properly understand and appreciate heavy metal, amirite?

It takes a nerd looking for a power trip

I agree, however I prefer to hear the content of the lyrics instead of incohesive screaming.

Fair enough :)! Not ALL of it is incohesive however...

Thank you for that wonderful input. It was very thought-provoking.

heavy metal appeals to nerds. im sorry but its true. all the people who feel misunderstood or weak listen to it and find meaning in the "music" and find power in it. they think that other people who don't like the "music" are unintelligent. however, it is only the lack of fitting in with society that would lead to liking heavy metal.

Well you are right in a way, I'll give you that. Data has been collected which suggests that those who have a higher IQ than most, and feel isolated from those around them and under pressure because of this, find comfort in metal music. I would hardly say it's anything to do with being "weak". Also, there are some pretty thick people who like metal as well. Exceptions to the rule? I don't know. Anyway what was your point again? :S

as you said, it takes someone intelligent to appreciate heavy metal. obviously skinz is not.

quite right. lol. Actually, I've been to a number of heavy metal concerts with my friends (I used to think it was stupid til I went. It was a blast, but that's beside the point), and saw very very few nerds and anti-social people. Most people there were actually really nice. My theory is since they scream so loud, they get rid of all their aggression in a healthy way and end up much happier people. Wait, wait. Let's watch skinz troll this post. It'll be hilarious

metal sucks, its worse than rap in my opinion

by Anonymous 14 years ago

i disagree, rap doesn't even have an ounce of actual MUSIC in it (from instruments, etc) just synthesized beats made in the computer... metal on the other hand, does.

quite right. RAP = Retards Attempting Poetry METAL = Musical Extremists Tripping Around Lyrics At least metal has music.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

synthesized music is still music. It requires thought and ability to use musical software to create what you want, even if most rap beats are terrible pieces of work. Rap beats =/= Electronic music

Of course! It makes so much sense now! Some cowardly high school kid makes a statement, therefore it must be true! lol. love your bluntness, miss. ;P

Wrong, it takes a truly intelligent person to properly understand and appreciate anybody's music.

True :)

Fair point :)

I completely disagree. I go to a magnet program with some very intelligent studens and there doesn't seem to be an exeedingly high number of us who like metal.

Note: "all intelligent people like metal" was never said. If you're in such highly intelligent programs, you should probably be intelligent first.

YetAnotherAnonymous is right.

Not only does it have to do with general intellecence, but also musical intellegence. Metal music is actually very complex and is challenging to play. If you understand what goes into metal you might appreciate it more

the guy isn't even singing, more like screaming with an extremelly scratchy voice

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Which guy? :S There are hundreds of different metal bands... A lot of them have singing for vocals. You are narrow minded, perhaps.
