Happy
Metal Fun Time seems like a simple way to try and
make you indie kids understand that your music sucks
and you need to get angry about the world. It is not
all fun. or filled with arctic monkeys - sometimes
you have to realize that the world hates you just as
much as you dream they do. Die, hipster
douches, die!
With that out of the way, in reality, most
metalheads operate under the assumption that their
music is widely accepted, while in many cases it is
not because of attitudes, or commonly held
sentiments like my lead in paragraph. The
foundations of true metal fans are usually the same
as any angst filled teen, but they alternatively
turn to lashing out instead of brooding silence.
However, many "in the know" people have started
grasping on to heavier music for a glimpse of the
underground, or the alternative, or whatever from
the usual fare, and they're realizing that some of
this shit does kinda rock. So, as the new
resident Metal Guru, my first installment of HMFT
features noisehipstersludgestonergrunge ... which is
really just metal that seems to be making everyone
happy over the last few months.
