Top 10 Most Annoying Characteristics of Metal Elitists

Metal is a fairly decent metal genre, I hardly listen to it at all, but I don't think it's a crime against humanity like many people think. However, their fanbase is...awful. Just awful. Metalheads are some of the most cringe inducing people on the planet and by far the worst group of individuals to talk about music with.

The Top Ten
1 They Think Rap is Just Mumbling on Auto-Tune

Not a fan of rap nor hip-hop, but even I know it's not all just mumbling or autotune.

Not all rappers mumble or use autotune.There are many talented rappers out there.

Lmao there are way more rappers who are lyrical than mumble rappers.

2 They Bash Bands for Expanding Their Sound

Yeah, it's ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with experimenting with sounds. It's part of how a band grows.

Yeah true.They probably would really hate experimental music then

Metallica makes black album
Elitists: OOOOH MY GOOOOOOD WHAT'S THIS MAINSTREAM CRAP? THEY SOLD OUT! THEY'RE UNTRVE!

3 They Bash Nu Metal/Metalcore Bands They've Never Even Listened To Before

Just because both sub-genres had mainstream success doesn't mean they're crap. If you don't like it or just can't get into it, that's okay, but if you tell people to stop listening to it because it's trash, you're now shoving your opinion down others' throats, which is kinda immature.

So annoying. If you hate these genres don't listen to them, or simply share your opinions respectfully!

I can see why you dismiss those genres as metal, but there can be some lit songs out there.

There are some good Nu Metal and Metalcore bands.Not all are bad

4 They Make Silly Claims Without Logical Explanations

I've seen this happen way too many times...

5 "Metal Died In 1984"
6 Most Elitists are Neo-Nazi/White Supremacists

I thought those were a minority even among elitista

7 They're Afraid of Bass Drops/Rap Verses
8 They ONLY Listen to Metal
9 They're Internet Trolls

Internet: DEATH TO ALL GAY EMO POSERS! DEATH TO ALL CORE! DEATH TO MAINSTREAM! WAGE WAR AGAINST THEM! METAL IS ETERNAL

Real life: Eh, not my kind of music, but it's alright

They troll people who like a different genre.

Sounds about right.

10 They Criticize Others for Not Having the Same Music Tastes

Elitist: what's your favourite genre?
Person: honestly, I really like metalcore...
Elitist: POSER! YOU'RE A CANCER FOR METAL MUSIC! GO AWAY AND LEAVE US TRVE METAL FANS LISTEN TO SOME TRVE METAL!
