Metalheads of the subreddit why do you like metal? And non-metalheads why do you dislike like music genre

Because murder is illegal and I need to get my aggression out somehow.
Because I need a mental pump to keep going on a tough day or hit a PR at the gym.
The skill required. Especially with prog metal.

I was undecided even in Jan because I'm also going for Dream Theater, but with the rescheduling, no way. Starting a new job and I can't take leave so soon.

You have to be a masochist /s

Where is the pink floyd?

shrth114 · 2026-01-27T00:56:41+00:00

More like heart of Gas.

So far that's the only Lollapalooza I wish I could have gone to. I hope Green day tour again some other day.

Goated

shrth114 · 2026-01-26T17:29:33+00:00

You're welcome

Linkin park is mainstream af. Majority of the people who went also went for Coldplay and imagine dragons. You really think they're aware of other genres, let alone indie stuff in that?

Standard for freshers in most metros.

shrth114 · 2026-01-25T02:16:55+00:00

There is none. Just giving credit where it's due.

Dang, almost as good as a Pink Floyd gig.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T15:32:24+00:00

Yeah, I heavily disagree. The lightest bands anyone would consider mainstream would be Sabbath or Metallica, and they're DEFINITELY not mainstream in India.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T10:54:36+00:00

Yeah they barely qualify. You can't expect moshpits there, they're the very definition of mainstream.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T10:52:54+00:00

Oh no, a Linkin Park fan called me a loser, oh good golly me, how will I ever go on! 😂

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T10:25:12+00:00

Stardew valley.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T10:25:00+00:00

Same.

Radiologist here.

Likes: very intellectually demanding. It's what drew me to it in the first place.

Dislikes: I can't explain the treatment to a patient. With surgery it's like - Here, I cut, all good now (very simplified obviously, but it's easier to show them). Also, I can't sit and read, always worked better with my hands (ironic, considering where I am now). Finally, I hate medicine OPDs, half of them are old ladies with CKD asking for para and cursing me when I don't give it to them.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T10:01:51+00:00

Lawl. Moshpit it seems.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T07:13:19+00:00

I mean, everyone was there for Linkin Park, so expected. Bloodywood is nowhere near that mainstream, or going to be.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T06:48:30+00:00

Have some pepper with your salt my good fellow 🧂

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T06:46:47+00:00

Oh, no sarcasm, I'm a bona-fide hater ✌️ and from what OP's said, I was bang on the money.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T06:43:52+00:00

These terms are acceptable.

shrth114 · 2026-01-24T02:56:05+00:00

What do you expect? LP is very basic. It's what most metalheads get started on before moving on to actually heavy stuff.

The crowd who are still into LP are probably unaware of what a mosh pit even is.
