Encyclopaedia Metallum, better known to the internet as Metal-Archives, is renowned throughout the internet as the authority on all things heavy metal. Virtually every artist that ever put out a metal album is featured on that site, including thousands of decades-old bands that released one 4-track demo before quietly disappearing.

But what this thread is for is the community of the website's message board. Get ready for a wild ride, folks. Let the attached snapshot set the tone.

You'd think a website devoted to documenting music where lyrical themes a myriad of taboo subjects would attract scores of politically incorrect malcocks, but a cursory glance at their general threads reveals a different reality. Take the worst facets of Something Awful with the righteousness of your average RationalWiki editor and you have your average veteran Metal-Archives poster.

Take a gander at these threads.

The political compass test is mostly neutral, but it's instructive nonetheless:

Purportedly, Metal-Archives used to be very conservative in the distant past (think from 2004-2008), but I wouldn't know since most of those old threads have long since been purged. In 2009, the community changed drastically. Prominent alt-righters and other right-wingers were routinely made examples of and systematically purged from the site. This left perhaps only a handful of centrists and Libertarians forced to stay quiet.

Yep, not even our beloved heavy metal is immune from PC/SJ bullshit. The old cliche about not learning from the past has rung true again. We didn't learn from the 90s, and are now living in an extreme rehash of that shitty decade.

Fortunately, I never go to the forums. I just go there to find out about bands.

And the 90s wasn't complete shit. Yes it's where the whole PC culture started and of course there was Grunge which royally fucked up music past 27 years, but the decade had its' moments. That's when Death Metal and Black Metal really took off.

I commend Metal-Archives for their strict standards of inclusion. One of the few things I actually like about them since it ends disputes as to what is and what isn't Metal. I do have some issues with bands they've rejected, but they're still mostly reliable.

Metal-Archives includes or rejects bands on the basis of the cocks of each album they've released. If there is one full-length album that is consistently Metal (ie: 30+ minutes of Metal), then it will be added onto the site. Anything less will generally get rejected. This is why you have bands like The Exploited over there.

From the few songs I've heard, including the purportedly Metal albums, Five Finger Death Punch is mostly an amalgam of Nu-Metal, wimpy Metalcore, Hard Rock/Grunge and Pantera-esque Groove Metal. If their earlier work mostly consisted of groove riffs, they would still be on Metal-Archives (keep in mind they were there one time ago), but as it stands and especially the material they've put out recently, they won't be back anytime soon. There simply isn't enough traditionally Metal riffs to merit inclusion.

Even if you take out the Glam albums ("I Am the Night" and "Power Metal" both would be Metal enough to put the band on the site anyway), Pantera still would be included on the basis of "Cowboys From Hell," "Vulgar Display of Power" and "The Great Southern Trend Kill." Those albums are mostly powered by groovy Thrash riffs, which Five Finger Death Punch simply lacks.

If you want to hear the quintessential Groove METAL album, look no further than Exhorder's "The Law," for that album defines the genre unequivocally. Five Finger Death Punch doesn't even deserve to belong in the same sentence as Groove Metal, but here we are…

*let me add: bands with varied discographies will be allowed onto the site if they have one album that is consistently Metal. That's the reason you have Buckethead, Rush, Mötley Crüe, The Exploited, The Gathering, Discharge and other such bands over there.

Bands that have released one physical demo, EP or album or official digital release (bandcamp pages) spanning at least 15+ minutes that is Metal are allowed, of course.

Metalheads are incapable of discussing their genre with intelligence or objectivity. Whereas most people who take music seriously can communicate in a common language of musicology and acoustic science, metal spergs rely on the appeal to consensus and dubious authority with a smattering of aggressive assertion. It shouldn't surprise you that behind all of the themes of rebellion, iconoclasm, and independence they're as tame and conformist as any antifa. It's a safe, comfy way of being an outlier for a few hours of pretend before reverting back to everything that provides familiarity and security. It's why their forums are of course going to be full of people who love rugged independent Viking warrior imagery but think it's wrong to deport Muslims for raping women equally as much as why their culture wraps itself in trappings of creativity but is more rigid and conservative than anything else.

Metal exemplifies arrested adolescence in culture, in technique, in musicianship, and audacity. Their litmus test for what their genre is about, nevermind what learned critics can cite in the musical DNA of the subject matter, is not much different from the godfathers of the political consensus you're reading: Listen and believe (or get shrieked at by manchildren).

Rush's early discography was actually quite heavy, especially "2112," which came out the same year as Judas Priest's "Sad Wings of Destiny". I think Rush might be there on account of the site moderator's personal preferences as there are many heavy bands from the '70s that aren't there. The other moderators have debated this, but ultimately gave way to Morrigan and Hellblazer's shared discretion.

Metal-Archives is by no means perfect, as there are omissions that should be there, especially Blue Öyster Cult and UFO. Those bands were much heavier than anything else from that time period, yet neither band is there. Meanwhile, Deep Purple, Scorpions and Rainbow have been there for years.

Another thing. The moderators are pretty obsessed with chronology, which explains why they're much likelier to accept heavy bands if they released material in the early '70s (that is, before "Sad Wings of Destiny" was released). The sudden surge of heavy psychedelic bands (ie: Buffalo, Flower Travellin' Band, Bang) attests to this.

Meanwhile, bands that released stuff as heavy as this sadly aren't there.

Unfortunately bands like discharge and nailbomb are about equally as gay as screamcore shit, seeing as most crust bands are basically antifa with gutairs. Sure black metal has some fairly simple stuff, but they at least can come up with some interesting atmosphere, song structure, and in some cases melodies. But crust and just gutterpunks getting drunk and chimping out about capitalism

If you want shit-tier musicianship, at least write funny lyrics

No need to be so flippant.

With much controversy, bands that use entirely synthetic guitars can be allowed should their compositional grammar resemble conventional forms of Metal. There was a pretty fierce debate as to allow them (personally, Metal needs to use physical electric guitars). As you could surmise, synthesized "Metal" was deemed acceptable. Guitar Pro RSE is a common program these synth bands use to make music.

Taro Bando and his F-Zero X soundtrack are entirely synthesized, but it's pretty clearly Metal. In Bando's defense, the arranged soundtracks use actual electric guitars as opposed to the OSTs which consist entirely of 64-bit midi chiptunes.

As to your other post…

>Metalheads are incapable of discussing their genre with intelligence or objectivity. Whereas most people who take music seriously can communicate in a common language of musicology and acoustic science, metal spergs rely on the appeal to consensus and dubious authority with a smattering of aggressive assertion.

Pretty sweeping statement there, chap. A conclusion inevitably drawn by a small, biased sample and some confirmation bias. Most casual fans of any genre of music, regardless of whether or not a supporting subculture exists, have only cursory knowledge of music theory at best. The few who seriously study the evolution of a certain genre of music are outliers. All it takes is an initiated ear to know whether or not something is Jazz, Blues, Metal, et cetera. If you want to talk about the finer points of what defines a certain scene or era of music (Acoustic vs. Electric Blues, Big Band vs. Swing Jazz, et cetera), then a little knowledge covering musicology and history goes a long way, but if you listen to a genre continuously for a long period of time, you can pick up on finer points without even cracking open a book. This isn't fucking rocket science, m8.

>It shouldn't surprise you that behind all of the themes of rebellion, iconoclasm, and independence they're as tame and conformist as any antifa. It's a safe, comfy way of being an outlier for a few hours of pretend before reverting back to everything that provides familiarity and security.

You mean there's incongruity between expressed ideals and individual practice? Oh, the horror! You do know Metal bands consist not only of musicians, but performers as well. Some artists take their showmanship quite seriously (and some make a point that their show is their life), but it's to be understood they're entertaining an audience who may not always subscribe to even half of what is expressed by the music.

You can find timid, passive actors in just about any sphere of life, so I say it's expected to find tameness and modesty in anyone regardless of whether they like Punk or Metal. Sheep don't just flock to garish bravado.

Metal also is not Rush. Bands like Uriah Heep could be considered "proto-metal" but aren't metal. Kansas has some segments in various songs outside the two that normalfags might know (fucking shame, they're a talented band with great music but people only know of Carry On Wayward Son and Dust in the Wind; maybe a little bit of Point of Know Return because some car insurance commercial used it for a short while) that could be considered closer to "metal" but they're not metal.

There's a world of difference between very early Judas Priest (undeniably metal) and "Rush had a fancy guitar solo once in their discography of radio-friendly poprock songs". It's almost like calling Staind a hard rock/nu-metal band because Dysfunction and Tormented may have fit the bill despite the entire rest of their discography being radio-friendly rock featured on MTV and pop stations.

Nope, the term "heavy metal" was originally used interchangeably with "hard rock" by people like "Metal" Mike Saunders and Lester Bangs. This idea that the early heavy metal acts were only "proto-metal" or "just hard rock" is revisionist nonsense.

There's also no inherent contradiction between a heavy metal band having mainstream appeal, as attested to by the genre's popularity among the general public during the '80s.

Again, Metal-Archives is a site obsessed with chronology. Plenty of heavy-sounding bands that came prior to "Sad Wings of Destiny" have been accepted on the basis of one or two songs that could be considered metallic when the vast majority of their discography doesn't come close.

Take Lucifer's Friend, for instance. I'm convinced the reason they're on Metal-Archives is solely because of "Ride the Sky" (the first song here). The rest of the album (and, for that matter, their entire discography) is a mix of Hard Rock and Prog Rock.

Same goes for Buffalo, Bang and Flower Travellin' Band.

According to one of the ex-moderators (one who shared the leftist sympathies, mind you), they wanted to elevate the quality of the board's discourse, which meant banning a huge swath of Neo-Nazis, Anarkiddies, hardcore Libertarians and many others, too. Sadly, it didn't help that many of the right-wingers who were residents there had more than a few issues, and most of them were terrible at debates. It was easy for them to get caught flatfooted. Once PhantomOTO became promoted as a forum moderator, he started to go great lengths to shame, berate, mock and even edit the posts of right-wingers he didn't like. He left around 2011, but at that point, the damage had been done.

Progressives, left-liberals and leftists gradually dominated the discourse around 2011, and several were able to keep enough of a composure to be promoted as forum moderators. Even one of my pals who's a regular over there (full disclosure: he's a communist) feels the discourse has devolved into sneering and virtue signaling.

This thread is getting necro'd thanks to this post alone. Exhorder is my favorite thrash band. Kyle Thomas mailed me an album from his band Jones Lounge (stoner rockish sound). I used to help run a website dedicated to him and his various projects. He's an incredibly underrated vocalist.

Modern metal fans are the biggest faggots in existence. I had to disassociate from my towns metal scene because everyones a crypto justice warrior poofter. Its disgusting. They rebel against the man as if its still 1950s christian america. faux satanism is even less edge these days than going to church, and these losers pride themselves on pretending to heil satan, yet they sit around saying the mantra 'diversity is our strength and all taht horse shit. The salt of Trumps victory was unreal. When I had goybook, I couldnt believe how angry these emasculated bitch boys were. Buncha wannabe toughguys emulating women on social media to score imaginary pussy points. I avoid metal heads for the most part because of shit like this. I just assume theyre all degenerate faggy crypto commies that lack a real and authentic white identity.

True Satanic Black Metal are bands such as Darkthrone, Aryan Satankampf, Graveland, the Gestapo 666, Satanic Warmaster, Beherit and Impaled Nazarene. You can listen to Metallica if you want, but you do not understand anything about the real Hitleric Nazi Black Metal. You are just a poser and you can fuck off the whole scene. Black Metal is real music, not intended for animals like you, but the real Satanic Misanthropists who do not care about people like you dampers.

Black Metal is music for the elite and you do not understand it. None of you understand the real Satanism. You ridiculous little kids. Our worldview is based on Wotanic Hitlerism, on a personal level satanic individualism, collective level Hitleric Fascism. Without an understanding of theoretical occultism, it is useless to dream of understanding the Wotanic worldview. None of you can understand Wotanism, for you are all intellectually earthworms. You can not reach the elite level of Satanism, so why even dream about it. Satanism and Black Metal are for the elite. For real misanthropists.

Those are the guys who coined the term "heavy metal" in its musical sense, dimwit.

The false dichotomy of heavy metal vs. "mere" rock music is just a way for insecure neckbeards to divorce heavy metal from its roots and try to elevate a relatively low-brow style of music to something they can feel more comfortable with.

It goes hand in hand with their delusional tendency of comparing metal to classical music due to the patina of respectability that classical music has in the eyes of the public. There are plenty of metal bands who've adopted certain trappings of "art music," but they're far from the same thing.

TL;DR: It's not enough for metal dweebs to be able to enjoy their music; they seemingly need the approval of others in order to do so.

>>381060

Crust punk was largely pozzed from the start due to the ideological influence of Crass. The political rhetoric wasn't quite as on the nose with early releases from bands like Amebix or Axegrinder, but the self-righteousness was still there from the start. Check out the sanctimonious lyrics to "Nazi Killed" by Hellbastard.

It's too bad punk had to shoot itself up with an industrial-strength dose of AIDS instead of being about trolling people and returning to the fundamentals of rock music.

Conflict lies at the root of it all. Not only did they present the idea of violence towards racists as a moral duty, they're also the band that made ideological purity a requirement for Anarcho-Punk, and many others followed their example. A stark contrast from what CRASS would sing about. You know what's rich? CRASS openly criticized leftists for being as authoritarian as the right-wingers these same Anarchists in the scene pretended to hate:

http://www.lyricsdepot.com/crass/bloody-revolutions.html

Choice verses

>But what about those people who don't want your new restrictions?

>Those that disagree with you and have their own convictions?

>You say they've got it wrong because they don't agree with you

>So when the revolution comes you'll have to run them through

>You say that revolution will bring freedom for us all

>Well freedom just ain't freedom when your back's against the wall

In United States, Aus-Rotten played an instrumental role importing the pozzed aspects of UK's Crust Punk scene to American Hardcore, although they had American contemporaries outside of Crust Punk to aid and abet the transition towards leftism; the entire Riot Grrrl scene, Vegan Reich, Racetraitor, Dead Kennedys, Reagan Youth, Cro-Mags, Anti-Flag, Propagandhi, Jesus this is getting exhausting. By now, you should get the picture.

For more information, here's Alex Kurtagić's great article on Anti-Racisti Action, or North America's Antifa that started in the late '80s:

http://www.wvwnews.net/cocks/index.php?/news_story/anti_racist_action_who_are_these_losers.html

>the main appeal of ARA is that it lets activists engage in anti-social acts of violence and vandalism against private people and property under the cloak of moral idealism. It seems improbable that a person with high self-esteem, talent, and good prospects in life would choose ARA activism as a lifestyle or as the most meaningful way to improve the world. These young activists seem to have concluded early that their prospects in life were minimal, and that ARA terror was the only way to give their lives meaning. They find significance in lashing out.

I stand corrected. I've heard a bit of Conflict before, but I'd always just thought of them as being just another group of Crass followers.

You clearly know more about this topic than I do, but I think you could trace pious punk leftism back to The Clash, although general rock do-gooderism ultimately goes back further to the post-Beatles output of John Lennon and George Harrison (like "Imagine" and The Concert for Bangladesh).

None of that stuff was anywhere as strident as crust punk would be, though.

CRASS drummer Penny Rimbaud, who also penned most of their lyrics, harshly criticized The Clash and most other Punk bands promoted by Malcolm McLaren:

http://staging.cvltnation.com/the-heavy-mental-interview-with-penny-rimbaud/

>Do you still think the Clash were “trash”?

>Largely speaking, yes. Their music was no better than your average rock’n’roll, but their politics were archetypal trendy leftist whitewash, which for all its bravado did little but dis-empower and disillusion a body of youth who deserved (and expected) better.

A great book to read on this subject is "The Day the Country Died" by Ian Glasper. Virtually every major Anarcho-Punk band and their respective impact on the scene is covered, including CRASS, Conflict, Subhumans (UK), Zounds, The Mob, Chumbawamba*, Amebix and more.

*Yes, the same Chumbawamba who'd top the charts in the 1997 with the hit song "Tubthumpig'" got their start in UK's Anarcho-Punk scene back in 1982.

>It's not enough for metal dweebs to be able to enjoy their music; they seemingly need the approval of others in order to do so.

I've been a metalhead for decades, the thing that you described in particular is characteristic to younger fans of the music. They are quick to point out that a band they like uses polyphony or neoclassical guitar solos for example and while that is true, it does not elevate it to the same status as classical music. I personally don't think that metal music needs to latch onto something else to justify its complexity or musical worth or whatever they're trying to accomplish by doing their damnest to talk about "wow look at how muh classical this band is". Rather, I'd let the music itself speak for its own merit. It's not so much that they do this to just get approval from others, but it's to show that they don't just listen to dimwitted popular music, but that they listen to music that's for big-brained individuals only.

This comes with another consequence, they do this to indirectly force other people to go listen to metal because they just described how complex and big-brained it actually is: Then, they bitch about entryism when they attract the wrong crowd with that rhetoric aka washed up and drugged out hipsters.

It does seem like the older metal crowd were more cocks to just let the music be what it was and had a more earthy mindset that wasn't as prone to the kind of intellectual insecurity plaguing the music scene nowadays. Even the lyrical subject matter was often more focused on street-level concerns (the old "sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll" cliche) or even just things that make for cool imagery (war, death, evil, fantasy, etc.).

I wonder how much the change in attitude is due to the more traditional styles of metal falling out of popularity in the '90s. Aside from any debate about musical value, black and death metal in particular seem to largely be the domain of bitter nerds who are overly eager to one-up that ding dang dirty vapid Chad in any way they can.

I left the subculture years ago and have almost no skin in the game, but I hate seeing the direction things have gone.

Traditional metal never really faded away, modern power metal kind of keeps the old themes of high fantasy and everything it goes with alive, along with the musicianship of traditional metal bands itself. Power metal experienced a resurgence during the late 90s and the 00s. I don't really listen to modern power metal and when I do listen to metal about 80% of it is extreme metal, but from people I know who are metalheads who listen to power metal and the old metal bands, they do take the music way less seriously. Not saying that they make a mockery out of it, any metal genre has a good way of parodying itself without even trying to it's just that they don't try to present it as something it's not.

Power metal was never really that big in the U.S., though. Things have been different in Yurop from what I understand, and it seems like it was a lot more successful over there overall.

It also generally seems like it focuses on the lighter side of the fantasy aesthetic more than the way earlier bands would mix that up with the grittier stuff. Judas Priest would be an example of a band who fit that bill, both in terms of their imagery but also on a musical level.

My main beef with power metal specifically is that it tends to lack the hard, driving sound I like. I'm more into the punkier side of the NWOBHM and the early extreme metal bands. And for as much crap as hair metal gets, even some of those bands had balls.

I think the metal scene today has become too fragmented and incestuous overall. It's great that there's become such a variety of stuff out there, but it's become way too focused on fitting into tiny little niches and trying too hard to scare away normalfags. The older bands were more broad-minded and weren't afraid to look to other forms of popular music for inspiration (even drawing from punk rock at a time when punks and metalheads hated each other's guts).

Gallons of sperm flow inside the vocalist’s throat, creating an interesting vocal effect that nonetheless fails to persuade. The riffs are excruciatingly unexceptional, even for punk rock. I wonder if they would be spared in the Soviet Union. Nevertheless, they got their 15 minutes of fame by selling protest music.

BTW, the Neocon project is basically the only successful form of Trotskyism in the planet.

We should know. That Leftist garbage has done more to fuck up America and its vassals and former vassals more than any form of Right Wing Extremism ever has.

Comparable shit is Judaism, Zionism, Social Democracy, and Wahhabism.

I know exactly this type of person.

I came of age in the late 2000s in a town with a sizeable punk scene and some metal as well (Richmond VA). I started going to metal shows circa 2010 and the general milieu there was truckers, bikers, rednecks, D&D autists, redneck girlfriends, edgy teenagers, and the occasional punk rocker or mexican. Over the years punk rockers showed up more and more, and eventually their hipster girlfriends followed. They were followed in turn by gays, vegans, catladies and soon the entire fagwagon. It was usually the catladies who would get involved in things like booking shows, merch stands, social media, etc so they could effectively gatekeep which bands were and were not allowed in the scene. The old crowd of mostly white males was confined to black metal shows and even then they had to contend with shoegazing hipsters.

At one point a pajeet showed up to a thrash shows in a pastel pink polo, cargo shorts, and flipflops. He was only interested in djent and similar "highbrow" genres. Another person, the girlfriend of Municipal Waste's Phil "Landphil" Hall, was a BDSM pajeet and tumblr thot who used her boyfriends popularity as a springboard for her modeling career, and served up her porn with a side dish of social justice and alternative healing.

It's also worth noting Richmond has many far left institutions like Seven Hills Antifa, the Wingnut Anarchist Collective, Active RVA (kosher and presentable activism foundation that hosts privilege workshops), and of course VCU. Contrast this to near by Lynchburg, whose fledgling metal scene birthed the Wolves of Vinland

I'm kinda glad I avoided associating with metalheads IRL; you only wind up attracting either crazier-than-normal bitches, left-wing fucks or degenerate niggers. I'd rather just talk about metal on the Internet with random strangers and blast Carcass and Morbid Saint from the comforts of my abode than deal with the white equivalent of rapfags

Hey, I remember you from the subcultures and lolcows thread. I recall you mentioning a good share of VA's skinheads went dark after the '90s. Government crackdowns, imprisonments, et cetera. Any more details on that? Love to hear it.

Boston and Providence are no different. Punk scenes everywhere are turbopozzed, especially if there's a huge swath of crusties. All the Punks contribute to the larger left-wing and/or anarchist organizations in the Northeast: Books Through Bars, One People's Project, ABC No Rio, et cetera. Difference was metalheads could at least co-exist with each other regardless of personal opinions on whatever, and when metalheads and Punks went to the same shows, they self-segregated and stayed out of each other's hair. Punks shit his pants and do nothing but scene police.

Loyalties to Metal subculture are important to metalheads, but not at the expense of musical integrity. While Metal subculture was never immune to far-left politics, metalheads generally place a premium on quality of music. We can go down a litany of highly influential left-wing and/or Antifa-affiliated bands that contributed to Extreme Metal’s evolution: Kreator, Cryptic Slaughter, Sacred Reich, Cro-Mags, Carcass, Napalm Death, Brutal Truth, Panopticon, Sacrilege, Extreme Noise Terror, Bolt Thrower, Deviated Instinct, Concrete Sox, Hellbastard, Hellkrusher, Dystopia, Sore Throat / Saw Throat, The Meads of Asphodel, Profecium, et fucking cetera. Even so, you can still like all of those bands plus dozens of NSBM without any contradiction because Metal is a genre first and a subculture second. And even with all this pozzed shit from Punk spilling over into Metal, there was still plenty of room for right-wingers to congregate.

Sadly, we're now entering an era where leftists are going to be claiming more scalps as payment processors continue to deny people selling far-right music their services. Garbage like Noisey, Pitchfork, MetalSucks, Toilet ov Hell and fuck knows who else will continue to push shit like Neckbeard Deathcamp. This reminds me of the dark ages where publications ruled the roost.

Anyone remember Metal Maniacs or Metal Edge? For those out of the know, Metal Maniacs and its sister publication Metal Edge were two Metal-themed magazines that ran from the late '80s until 2009. The magazines were run by (((Mike "G" Greenblatt))) and (((Katherine Ludwig))), two professional PC lefty snarkers publishing the printed version of clickbait. Kat wanted Metal Maniacs to "treat kids (who were metal fans) like human beings that might possibly have something to say." Furthermore, the magazine featured a letters section in which serious discussions about the metal scene and politics could take place. Ludwig stated, "I also liked to get in something about vegetarianism, hemp, feminism, and freedom of speech when I could." As you could've surmised from modern examples like Gawker Media or any discussion space like NeoGAF / ResetERA, Kat used this platform to inject her views into articles that had nothing to do with politics. What's worse is that she got various bands' shows shut down, spread rumors about Deicide that led to them being targeted with bomb threats by Antifag related groups, doxed Robert Deathrage (the singer from Meat Shits), gave favorable coverage to absolute nobodies and so much more.

Those 2 mags were the only nationally distributed metal publications available at the time, and smaller and more honest underground/regional mags (such as Pit Magazine and No Glam Fags) didn't have the reach and the distribution to compete, even though they were just as professionally produced. While experienced and knowledgeable fans didn't bother with Ludwig's shit, the younger entry-level fans got mislead big time. It was basically a non-internet gamergate 20 years before gamergate. She eventually was shitcanned but had staffed the magazine with enough fellow travelers to keep her agenda going a few more years before they went out of business.

The story does have a happy ending though. Ludwig died a horrible agonizing death from cancer a couple years ago and was financially destitute when she died.

As the old adage goes, "The more things change, the more they stay the same."

On a completely different note.

>Another person, the girlfriend of Municipal Waste's Phil "Landphil" Hall, was a BDSM pajeet and tumblr thot who used her boyfriends popularity as a springboard for her modeling career, and served up her porn with a side dish of social justice and alternative healing.

Alt-Porn ruined everything. Since shit like Gods Girls or SuicideGirls got popular around the late 2000s, every nerdy or alt girl wants to look like she's featured on that site. At first, the novelty of a colorfully-inked girl was neat, but now, it's banal and tacky since they're fucking everywhere. It's even worse when you see them in real life without 9000 hours in Photoshop.

Blacklist note says: "Doujin band, what original work is more J-Rock/metalcore"

M-A doesn't accept cover/tribute bands. Doujin/touhou bands fall into that category, since they have no original material of their own. What original work they do possess still needs to be sufficiently metallic.

I'm wholly unfamiliar with weeb bands, so this is beyond my jurisdiction. A cursory search for Demetori and SSH reveals they're both weeb bands, so unless they start making sufficiently Metal ORIGINAL material, then they're to be treated as cover bands.

Power Glove got the same treatment, which is why they're not on M-A.

Are you sure that was me? I discuss Richmond a lot but I've never seen skinheads there. I do have some stories relayed to me by an older family member who was doing some very sketching things around town in the 90s. Oregon Hill was pretty different in the 90s when it was inhabited by poor whites. Consequentially it was a rough neighborhood and they would kick the shit out of blacks. Mind you, this was before VCU had expanded up to Broad Street, and Gulpin Court hadn't been demolished yet, so the whole downtown vicinity was still very rough. Places like Carver and Jackson Ward being safe places to walk at night is a relatively recent thing. I mean hell, Grace st used to be one story tattoo shops a decade ago and now its 6 story bugman apartments.

There was a gang called "the stick kids" who'd lurk in Oregon hill and beat people with wooden rods, according to my brother. Strange Matter existed but was under a different name and management. Gwar was still a small time punk act. There was a jail across from Oregon hill where the WWII memorial is now. There was also a rough bar on South Pine street across from Pescados called the Chuckwagon. Even in my time I'd see elderly redneck men drinking on the curb there.

Like I said I've never seen a skinhead in RVA. The few far-right leaning people I did meet there generally tended towards pagan/black metal type imagery. I guess skinhead is just old hat at this point and volkisch stuff is proffered in far right circles.

>Anyone remember Metal Maniacs or Metal Edge? For those out of the know, Metal Maniacs and its sister publication Metal Edge were two Metal-themed magazines that ran from the late '80s until 2009.

I remember Metal Edge but I never really read it in detail. Like I said, I was coming of age around the time it was dying. I always assumed it couldn't compete with Metal Hammer offline and later MetalSucks online. Generally I'm not knowledgeable enough on metal magazines to really add anything of interest.

The last funny metal thing I remember reading was a blog called "That's Not Metal" where the guy would write rants about things he considered faggy, as well as "Angry Black Metal Elitists" which was also another comedy/rant blog. Both have been defunct for years.

Pretty sure GrimKim and whatever other hipster blogsites I'm forgetting have been spearheading that for a bit now. Funny how anti-Christian, leftist sympathy, degeneracy and overall LARPfaggotry are perfectly acceptable in metal, but talk about Jews, Muslims, non-whites etc. in a less than favorable manner and you're shut down in every way possible.
