Dante : "I listen to My Chemical Romance."
Sarah : "So you listen to Screamo Heavy Metal!? " :O
A person over 25 who rocks out with his friends and sing songs no one knows because they made them themselves and screams them to a crowd of people at their local bar.
Yo! Dude that performance was sick! Middle age metal is sick!
An actually amazing type of music that takes an immense amount of skill to pull off. Instruments are hard to learn, and so is singing and screaming. Just imagine having to scream like that at a show, for hours. Maybe you could do it for a second, but not for hours, because it takes TALENT. It also most of the time does not use autotune, like most shitty rappers today. Rap is pretty good, but not the shit today.
Did you know that being a Heavy Metal singer and/or musician actually takes talent and is really hard? Bet you didn't because you think that using autotune and mumbling into a microphone takes talent, and think that all metal is screaming and that people that listen to it are just edgy kids. Just because YOU are part of the majority of people that enjoy shitty autotune mumbling, doesn't mean metal is bad.

for the keen introspecter, there will be truth to the words "heavy metal broke my heart".

The best damn thing you’ll ever hear
You know you are listening to heavy metal when it’s got a 3 minute intro then lyrics about death or war or it’s just so distorted you can’t hear the lyrics I recommend if you plan to get into metal you should start with less heavy bands like cannibal corpse or sodom if you can’t listen to a cannibal corpse song all the way through you are a pussy
