@mia @mold @lucy actually, rammstein is the purest definition of metal and all other bands apart from oomph are just posers

@snacks @lucy @mia @mold You are both horribly wrong and also correct.

@snacks @mia @mold alestorms experimental style underlines how they speak to the struggle of the alcoholic divorced dads, the most oppressed minority there is. with lyrical ingenuity and poetic depth they explore the topics of alcoholism and the yearning to the freedom granted by being a pirate during the golden age of piracy, a metaphor for how the single dad is stuck in remembrance of his once promising happy family life.

@snacks @lucy @mia @mold To throw a wrench into this whole argument, listen to Hug You Hardcore from Lordi. A song specifically made to impersonate what defines pop, transfers it into hard rock which media almost always calls heavy metal with shock lyrics made to be as disgusting as possible.

@mold @lucy Isn’t “music that contains distorted guitars” literally the definition of metal?

@aetios @lucy @mold That really depends on who you ask because I think many people consider punk to be a type of metal.

@SuperDicq @aetios @mold many people consider kanye west to be a great artist. many people are often wrong.

@lucy @aetios @mold If all the stuff he’s doing right now is part of the bit then he is a great performance artist. But I’m starting to feel that this is just untreated mental illness and drug abuse and not art all.

@SuperDicq @aetios @mold oh he's very mentally ill but that's not even what i was referring to

Both communities sometimes actively hate each other.
Ok boomer, the 70s are over. I’m pretty sure most fans of rock music can appreciate both nowadays.
