In a genre where a distressing percentage of bands are Literal Actual Nazis, if you find one you like and the worst you have to deal with is "No gently caress YOU Dad" style anarchism you should probably count your blessings.

I think I said something along the lines of "hahahahahaha holy poo poo" while hammering the "Add To Cart" button

Metal hasn't even made significant headway on it's problem with loving nazis, so I wouldn't hold my breath about it's problems with sexism going away

Also, lol at people trying to claim that Nazism isn't a problem in a genre where NSBM is common enough to have it's own category.

DeusExMachinima posted:Mhm, remember when Skrewdriver was as successful as Metallica in the U.S. or Nightwish in Europe? Oh, yeah, I forgot about how NS hiphop and NS trance and NS dubstep are all accepted categories listed on fan websites for those genres. Yeah, it's only obscure subgenres, metal definitely doesn't have a nazi problem.

Vulture Culture posted:Nazi punk is one thing, but martial industrial and neofolk, despite being scenes with relatively large numbers of Nazi activists and sympathizers, aren't literally labeled "NS martial industrial" and "NS neofolk" in album bins the way that we talk about NSBM. It indicates a completely different level of indifference towards the ideology.

H13 posted:Something interesting that I've found about metal fans (that I'm guilty of too) is that for some bands, if they don't change things up, they get ridiculed for being the same and doing the same thing over and over again (Slayer, Maiden song-title choruses). But there are other bands where if they changed ANYTHING about what they do, people lose their loving minds (Opeth). It's almost as though there are different groups of fans that like and care about different things

Gamma Nerd posted:Unfortunately bands like Gloryhammer are trying to make ironic power metal a thing, demonstrating a massive misunderstanding of the point of power metal Remember when people thought Andrew WK was being ironic, and then it turned out that, no, he's really like that all the time?

Cliff was the one who was an actual music nerd; I wouldn't have been surprised to see his career look kind of like Marty Friedman's
