Goddamnit I have a song by Galneryus in the playlist
I feel called outedit: Did not know they had anything to do with HunterxHunter or w/e so I feel like that redeems me. never mind that I got their music from a different anime.

Where do Powerwolf fans land on this list? Because I am one but I have genuinely no idea if that gives me cred or if that makes me the FNG.
Probably The Weeb archetype. It's the only one that mentions power metal. Guess I'm one too.
-
I'm all over backgaze/atmospheric black metal. Alcest is an entry level drug.
Checkout:
- A Different Cloud
- Sadness
- Old Graves - sadly small library
- Forrest of Shadows
will do!! thx

I'm the gatekeeper, but I only listen to death, grind and doom. Everything else is more or less bullshit. Especially melodeath.
I only listen to neo-zwinx-slamcore with progressive elements.

You're telling me you never get in a silly mood and put on some In Flames? But only old In Flames, not that new shit.
I used to be an In Flames fan when I got into metal, but I grew out of it and can't stand that shit anymore. With maybe the exception of a little Amon Amarth.

I'm absolutely "the gatekeeper", but these days I like to keep the gate open and welcome newcomers who are interested in hearing an old man's ramblings.
This is where I fit - really obscure tastes, but instead of gate keeping, I'm like a Jehovah's witness showing up at your door, pushing bands on you if you show even the slightest interest

I've been called out as the gatekeeper
. Though I do occasionally delve into darker electronic genres like dark ambient or some DnB.Join the rest of us gatekeepers, you know, unless you are a poser, or something:

The Thrashers would like a word with you...

I guess I'm a gatekeeper, but only because some guy used "hey babe, I can play Smoke on the Water by Metallica, want to come over and listen?" as a pickup line, and I laughed at him.

I guess I would be closest to "the prog purist", though I love power metal, and other subgenres too, so I could also be in the "it's all metal" category.
This list seems to be incomplete, there are other metal fan archetypes

Classic / Dad
Especially 'metal died after 1991'.

Okay can somebody explain the appeal of 4/4 to me?

Isn't that just the "default" rhythm for most music?

My cutoff is anything before the Black Album. So they've pretty much got me nailed- Classic Metal Purist. Though I do like modern Stoner and Desert Rock.

Dude, volume 4 is a masterpiece, with the exception of FX, which is just Iommi stoned out his mind and fucking with his pedalboard. There's a really good rehash of it done by several artists calls Volume 4 Redux.
The New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal is outstanding. Bands like Haunt (Eric Church), Night Demon, witchcraft and Green Lung are all amazing, have solid sized libraries and are great starting points into other stuff
There are also really cool metal bands out there like Panopticon - he combines black metal and bluegrass with strongly anticapitalistic lyrics.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Dude, as someone who moved on from metal after the Black Album (completely pigeonholed classic purist), I'm so amazed you have turned me on to 4 bands all of which I really like on first listen. Thank you so much for giving metal a new lease on life for me! I didn't know anyone was making really good thrashy stuff like this any more.

The classic is just a subgenre of dad.
I think that Dad is the casual version of Classic.

I'm the 'It's all metal' guy and I'm proud of it.
