[@johndutkiewicz9401]

[@harassedbanana9763]

Disclaimer: this is a long comment. I’m a 12 yr old metalhead with kind of long hair. I have already been to 2 concerts. One with Testament, Behemoth, Anthrax, Lamb of god and Slayer which was really fun, and a Dying fetus concert with gatecreeper and incantation. Gatecreeper was very good live, and very loud, and the tour manager gave me his backstage pass! I didn’t get to use it though, it was just as a souvenir. I’m very lucky that my family is super supportive towards my music. They’ve approved of some of my very brutal shirts. I have a suffocation shirt with the human waste EP cover, a cryptopsy shirt with the none so vile album cover, a slayer tour shirt with a goat, sword in hand, drenched with blood, and my favorite shirt, my dying fetus grotesque impalement shirt. My dad picked it out for me at the concert and it was probably the goriest shirt there. my current teacher was in a cover band for slayer. All of my shirts (so far) have been approved at school. The only problem is that my teacher is the only metalhead in my grade at school, so unless I’m with my online friends I have no one to relate to and talk about metal with at school. I feel though that Everyone else respects the fact that I listen to metal music, and I don’t get bullied at all. Even if I did, which I have before, I would probably be fine. Bullying doesn’t affect me (unless it’s my brother annoying me). If you are bullied, just don’t think much of it. Why do those kids’ opinions matter so much? Why do you care what they think about you if all they pay attention to is the negative stuff about you? Online, or real life, whatever people say to you doesn’t always matter. Last week a cashier (that looked a lot like Dave Lombardo) complemented my obituary hoodie and that made my day. If you’ve read this, I hope you feel inspired or entertained or something. I just wanted to put all of this out there.

I can't help but disliking dubstep, It's just not my thing, especially thanks to a friend of mine who basically only listens to Borgore and always turns up the volume until everyone's ears are bleeding.

I've been a metalhead since 2005, and especially love Death/Black Metal. I'm also a Christian. In my view, each person has to decide their own tolerance for blasphemy in art. As long as as it doesn't endanger your relationship with God and turn you towards a self-destructive lifestyle, then it should be fine to listen to even bands like Marduk and Deicide, for "It is not what enters into the mouth that defiles the man, but what proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man." (Matthew 15:10-11) P.S. 7:31 Well said. This is an important point.

[@PanthersForce]

"You can't dance to Metal". Once I brought a mixed CD to a school dance, and you know what - all the dance floor including the "pop" girls were rocking to Sinner's "the truth is out there" and they really enjoyed it:) Sometimes people actually like Metal (at least the melodic styles of it) but don't know it.. yet :)

[@YokaiSlayer]

I'm so happy my parents are supportive about me being a metalhead and wearing "weird shirts and clothes" they like the way I am. And they rather see me as an alternative person then a mainstream person that judges on other people. My mom won't even wash my battle vest even while it is stinky af lol. I love my mom and my dad of course. Also I'm going to Graspop 2020 with my dad, gonna be awesome.

[@ericcartman1425]

You have cool parents! My dad likes metal too he bought me a Suicide Silence shirt for my birthday

[@dalejrfan1971]

I've been listening to heavy metal ever since I was 11 years old. My first heavy metal album was Quiet Riot "Metal Health" I was bullied pretty badly in school because I was overweight. The bullying got to a point to when I was 15 I attempted suicide. Thankfully a friend of mine in high school introduced me to Slayer and Metallica. Thrash Metal saved my life, it gave me a way to get out the aggression from being bullied and not hurting myself or anyone else. Thankfully my parents never stopped me from listening to metal.

[@hackermongo5811]

Your channel shows that metal heads aren't bad at all. Your so nice your like the new Chuck. This video is relatable. I love channel by the way

[@88panzer]

Disclaimer: Kinda long comment lies ahead I got into metal last year when I was 10. You see, I go to a small one-room school (those aren't very common nowadays) with other kids that are in 1st grade - high school. There's this one high schooler who loved history and listened to Sabaton. We got along very well the first day we met each other and he showed me Sabaton's music video for their song Bismarck. I was very interested in it and when I got home from school I immediately got on my phone and searched up Sabaton. My favorite songs at the time were Panzerkampf, Devil Dogs, and Bismark. One day while driving to school I found this song called The Last Stand. I listened to it and I thought: "Hey, I feel like I've heard this song before" And it turns out I did from a History of meme music video. I was watching the music video to The Last Stand and I saw this other video on the side called In the Name of God by Powerwolf. I also got very interested, listened to it, and instantly dubbed it as my favorite song. I really liked Powerwolf's theme, which was based on religion. I then discovered Raise your fist, Evangelist and Amen and Attack, and guess what? Powerwolf became my favorite band. (and it still is to this very day) I then discovered Gloryhammer and Alestorm, but Powerwolf will probably stay as my favorite band for a while. One day during quarantine I was sleeping to some Powerwolf songs and my dad came in and yelled "TURN IT OFF" and I said "ok jeez." I then asked, "why do you hate metal so much?" and my dad replied with "A lot of drunkards and Satanists like this music." And then I could claim that my dad is uninformed about metal and the positive effect it has on people. Also, all of my friends either hate metal or don't listen to it. (Except for that one person who introduced me to Sabaton and the wonderful world of metal) I honestly feel bad for the people who don't listen to metal or hate it. But everyone is subject to their own opinions. (But seriously though, I want to run you over with a Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger if you hate metal ⁿᵒ ⁱᵐ ʲᵒᵏⁱⁿᵍ ˡᵒˡ)

[@waifubreaks1572]

I got into Metal when I was 11 way back in 1980. It seems to me that many "problems" that existed then still apply today. I had my albums confiscated, I got dirty looks from the elderly, I was accused of being Satanic by my classmates, and yes I was told it was just a phase by many. I begged to differ about that "just a phase" issue wholeheartedly and I'm glad I wasn't wrong. I'm 54 now and I have very long hair, I wear Metal band shirts each day, and I do my best to promote Metal in a healthy and friendly way the same I did back then. If you are young and reading this, walk proudly and fly your Metal flag high! It has saved me from a life of boredom and given me more strength that I ever thought possible. Go to shows, mosh, rock out and make those memories. You won't regret it. I have so many memories of good times that I draw from nowadays and I'm so happy to have embraced the Metal community/lifestyle like I did. With over 300 shows and over 1200 bands seen live, I may be a little hard of hearing but hey, that's why I have a powerful stereo to keep me surrounded by a wall of sound to enjoy my favorite bands every day of my life. \m/

[@gj4312]

It's never 'just a phase'. Good songs from half a century ago are still listened to as if they are new because it's amazing music. Same with aging. You will still listen to it because it's amazing.

I understand the whole shirt thing. My mom has never thrown away my shirts (she actually buys them for me XD) but I can't wear ANYTHING cool to school. I got an AWESOME infant annihilator shirt of a bloody priest holding half of a cut open baby with intestines, blood, and satanic symbols all over, but I almost got suspended for a week over it! They assume that just because sometimes mentally fucked up people listen to metal, that ALL metalheads are satan spawn. It's really fucked up. I don't know any metalheads, but this video has given me hope that somewhere, someday, somebody might just wanna hang out and throw down to some Nile or Cryptopsy. Keep up the awesome videos bro! METAL!!!!! \m/

[@jackscott1218]

Never seen you before: first impression. You seem reasonable and intelligent, which is nice. I also really hope you sing because you sound like you'd have a really great low-growl. Sidenote: I actually have no problem with pop music. I dislike rap music but I don't freak out when I hear it. Obviously I prefer metal but I think the assumption that a metal head must hate pop (or grow long hair, or other stigma). However I do get that this is pointed towards addressing the prejudiced towards stereotypes so I'm not about to flip my shit at you. At the end of the day, I really appreciate the stigma towards metalheads. I mean sure, it's a huge barrier to entry and it sucks for people who always wanted to get into metal but were pressed out of it, but that just makes the community so much more special. The feel of finding someone who won't cringe when you reveal your music taste and the joy of being supported and validated in your opinions is incredible and I think it's the reason that, despite what most people think, metalheads are some of the kindest, most supportive and most understanding people I've met. We've grown up isolated, and when we come together we've got a lot of missed time to catch up on :)

[@metalhead_madelyn9993]

I’m always told that I can’t be a metalhead since I’m a 13 year old girl. Also, I was actually kicked out of church for wearing a Metallica shirt and a pride necklace. They called me a satanic fa**ot. Like, sorry that I’m bisexual and a metalhead, but at least I’m actually brave enough to embrace myself around others. I don’t know why I’m commenting this, but I had to get it off my chest haha

I first started getting into Metal back when I was 12 going on 13. I grew my hair out and wore Metal Band shirts all through high school. I was told it’s just a phase so many times growing up. Well if you are a Metal Head you know that it’s not a phase. I’m an adult now and I still love Metal the same way today as I did back when I was 13. What most people don’t know or understand is that being a Metal fan is more than listening to the music, it’s a lifestyle.
