wearing inverted cross necklaces, putting pentagrams on your hands, gonig to metal shows and moshing everyone to the ground, hanging with friends, not paying much attention in school because of metal, having a metal band, writing RIP Dimebag on everything and everywhere, giving hell to christians who piss you off because of your satanism/athesim, having a guitar, pissing off the neighbors because of such a loud band, ande a bunch more.... is that considered a metal culture?

hey u 2! stick to the topic at hand! anyways, we already have a hip-hop culture; why not a metal culture? well, someone in metal culture would wear dark clothing, (black, gray, dark brown...etc) but not wear clothes defined as "preppy" or "pimp" Hip hop culture is the glorified worship of pop, hip-hop, and rap artists, right? same approach, but applied to rock music. i suppose it would have someone being true to their inner metal-head self. oh yeah, that whole satanic thing is really unnecesary. that is a really generalized, ignorant view of all music rock.

Metal has to be the most homoerotic genre of music out there

I`m shocked it doesn`t have a bigger g@y following

black metal seems to have a very pleasant culture involving burning down churches, murdering rival band members, running satanic cults and murdering innocent people. i jest, i have read about these shenanigans but it cant be every black metal band..well, the satanic cult parts probably true. for metal in general, they seem to revel in being more agressive, growing their hair, getting tattoos and piercings, and swearing a lot.
