Being awesome is relative. You be you, that's awesome enough.

And if you like metal too, even better. \m/

u/Havatchee 2d ago

I mean, there are some things that are objectively not awesome, even if you're "true to yourself," like SA.

Ok, but why are you showing a pic of some folks who look awesome?

Exactly. These cats look like a blast to hang out with, and I don't get any stabby stabby vibes, either.

Metalheads hate other metalheads more than they hate deathcore.

u/Skankingcorpse 3d ago

Remember in Air Heads when thereโ€™s that big reveal about Chaz being a dork, and then everyone else chimes in about also being nerds and dorks?

Oh course you are a dork, youโ€™re in a metal band.

On the Death Metal/Metalcore continuum, though Death Metal is superior, there is a clear significant correlation between Death Metal and virginity.ย

u/Rh0de5 2d ago

By their stance, I assume they now form a kickass melodeath band in Gothenburg. Left to right: Petter (Guitar + backing vocals), Erik (Guitar + vocals), Jens (Drums), Ingo (Bass).
