Nik, I'm a 42 year old metalhead and just wanted to say I appreciate all you do. You've introduced me to so many new metal bands that I now listen to regularly. Keep up the good work.

@peepturner8325 Жыл бұрын
@@DaPeanutDude. there are multiple reasons, but the main issue is that he popularises the myth that Metalcore and Metal are the same genre. Metalcore belongs to its own seperate category, which is hardcore or punk. Metal is hardcore that simply borrows elements of metal. I’m not saying this because I dislike metalcore, I love the genre that precursors metalcore, hardcore, and don’t consider grindcore metal, despite my liking of it but saying that they are the same genres is dangerous for both communities as it essentially merges both communities as one, which demolishes the aspects of both communities that make them distinct. Then, the notion of metalcore belonging to the same genre as metal spreads, more metal bands will incorporate metalcore into their sound, which is generally agreed upon by the metal community that doesn’t have a strong relationship with metalcore/deathcore to be of lesser quality than actual metal music (since, you know, metalcore isn’t metal). The same can be said with the metalcore audience for metal, which usually dislike black metal and death metal, though to a lesser extent of metal heads disliking metalcore since those that listen to metalcore’s music is usually less evolved than metalhead’s. I know I sound really pretentious, but I am simply speaking the truth and hope that you understand where I am coming from. I don’t dislike Nick as a person, but his clear ignorance in metal music and even punk as a whole is frustrating to say the least.

Not really surprized Slayer numbers are low. For the younger crowd, they're probably seen as the big ''gatekeeping metal elitist band of choice'' to stay away from. Which is kinda too bad. Not surprized to see RATM having high numbers. It seems any rap fan turned into a metal reaction channel fall in love with them. Not really surprizing... You did good Nick!
