          FÄTHØM, the German Satanic Black Metal band, that had members all over the political spectrum, released 4 demos and 1 full album. They all killed each other once they all got too drunk and started to talk about politics instead of satanism, though police reports point to that Holocaust-denying Neonazi bassist, Hans Mann started the first blow, but last-man standing ancap guitarist Kristoffer Johannson also got fatally wounded by the end, and spent more time trying to write “fucking communist scum” with his own blood rather than to get medical attention.

          Too bad that the now christian tradwife ex-wife of Mann tries everything in her power to stop these albums from further circulation, because “metal bad”.

            Interesting to mention also that their triangle player Egon Wurst was decapitated by a halberd during this fight while stabbing Mann with his triangle. They are so controversial that a German court ruled that their merch may not be worn in pre-schools and nursing homes!

      A friend once pointed out you can replace the words of any country song with “dingle dangle doo” and it works just as well as the original. It’s how I cope when Achy Breaky is inflicted.

      Here are my new words.

      Ding dangle doo
      A-dingle dangle doo
      A-inky dinky dingle dangle doo

      An’ if ya dangle doo
      My dingle dangle doo
      A ding dang dingle dangle doo

      WOOOOOOooooOOOO

        I gave it a go with “Chattahoochee” by Alan Jackson:

        Well, ding dang doodle dingle dangle doodle
Ding dang dingle dangle doodle dangle
Ding dang doodle dingle Georgia asphalt
Dingle dangle doo but we dangle dingle doo

        And “Thunder Rolls” by Garth Brooks:

        The dangle rolls
and the dingle strikes
another dingle dangle doo
on a dingle doodle diiiiing
as the dingle doodle doOooo
dangle dingle ding
dingle dangle heart
the dangle rolls

            There’s a movement within black metal that calls itself “National Socialist Black Metal” (NSBM). It’s what happens when any group of dickheads insert themselves into an existing scene or genre. Similar thing happened to skinhead punks in England in the 80s.

            Some times it boils down to here’s a black metal band comprised solely of neo-Nazis and while they sing songs about trolls and despair they also do Nazi shit in their spare time. This only fuels the assertion you made earlier because a lot of times you can’t even tell they are NSBM from the music, you have to have read an interview, listened to their stage banter, or looked up a list of known NSBM-adjacent bands.

              Thank you for taking the time to explain this – I’m learning there is a lot more to it than i thought.

      Gotta say, IMO this has nothing to do with being a [insert genre] fan at all. It’s just about not being a pompous, pretentious asshole. 😄 Let people like what they like! But I still have my opinions about what level of musicality and interesting aspects there need to be in the music I listen too. Again, the music ->I<- listen to. Other people can definitely listen to bland mainstream garbage if they want to. 😅 Not all mainstream music is garbage of course, some of it is popular because it’s actually good, so not all awesome music is obscure/indie/whatever. 👍

    I like it when people like music. Don’t care what it is.

    Personally, I am a metalcore, deathcore kind of person. But to each their own.

    Hell, they’ll give you this look even when you say you like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and of all bands - Motorhead.

    People have particular subgenres of taste, but who the hell decided at one point that we should evaluate what is metal and what isn’t?

    I have given bands like Cannibal Corpse, Death and sprinkles of other Death/Black metal bands honest tries. To me it’s all just noise and the vocalist guarantees me that I will not like them because it’s just belching and barking lyrics.

      who the hell decided what is metal and what isn’t?

      I recommend freeing oneself from the chains of genre altogether.

      Humans have a tendency to turn descriptive language into prescriptive language. So what started as artists experimenting ends up getting categorized into market demographics that are easier to sell to. Separate communities who, in order to exist at all, need to create rules about who does, and thus who does not, belong. And so what starts as free artistic expression reflects off of the audience and becomes economic and social pressure to conform to these rules. We end up with bands making “metal” music for the sake of being metal, at the cost of true artistic expression.

      Is an artist metal? Is an album metal? Is a song metal? Is a particular instrument in a song metal? Is a particular bar played by a particular instrument metal? Is it even about the music, or is it about other things? The clothes, the color schemes, the fonts, the lyrical subject matter, the community? Does any of it actually matter?

        Thank you, this needed saying! It would be nice if we could return to just playing music without worrying at all what genre it is.

        Maybe jealousy? They cracked the mold when they popped Lemmy🍰 out. Now the metals are left with only like 2-3 to choose from.

      Foe me it’s the opposite. I absolutely love cannibal corps. I love cannabis corpse even more. I always feel like these bands make tge music tgey really want and not what people want to hear. There is something honest about the music. If you don’t like it you fon’t like it, obviously. Maiden acdc and megadeth is really boring to me. It’s not that it’s bad or i don’t like it, it’s more that i think: i could listen to worm sheppard or job for a cowboy instead. One of my favourite bands is all shall perish, i liked them before ever seeing them live, but when i saw them i truly realised that these are massive music nerds. His vocal range is crazy, because i assumed they had two singers, the bassist and guitarist seem incredibly talented, and i think they could be really successful doing “good music” but that’s what they do and enjoy and i appreciate that a lot.

    90s demo tapes hit different though. The crustiness really enhances the overall atmosphere of certain genres.

    Ysigim - Ain Soph Or (1994) is a personal favorite. They did a digital rerelease recently and it’s too clean, I don’t like it.

      I love my unpronounceable black metal bands and OSDM bands.

      I also loved going to the Volbeat /Ghost concert a few years back. Variety is fun.

        It’s not even disliked, it’s just a running gag that Ghost’s subgenre is “Scooby Doo chase music”

        It’s hardly even metal if you look at it from atop some grindcore mountain.

        Because Ghost is not going crazy with solos, screeching/belching/barking lyrics out, isn’t recording their material in some hollowed out and echoed building somewhere. They also aren’t catering to lyrics about how it’d be a wonderful day to be devouring some flesh and fucking the eye sockets of a skull. But you wouldn’t know that with the vocalist doing said belching/barking/screeching lyrics until you read what the song is about.

        So basically, Ghost is not liked because it’s not catering to metal edgelords.

        The downvotes prove me right. :)
