I thought Metal: A Headbanger's Journey focused too much on Glam Metal. And their interviewees were sometimes crappy.
eh, i think the whole point of the documentary was to search for an answer as to why metal has been the subject of numerous verbal attacks. either way though, i appreciate metal more after seeing it then i ever did.

i thought most of the interviews were great, actually.
They had some elderly anthropologist on the show talking about the "culture" of metal. She then went on to talk about the musical characteristics of metal and obviously had no idea wtf she was saying.

And the goth chick teen was annoying.

i felt the exact same way. that old bitch was talking out her ass. tho i did like the metal headbangers journey.
and on a seperate point. the fact that when people first get into metal they like shitty bands like slipknot and a7x is fine. but most kids, think theyre tough shit and already know everything. when i first started listening to metal and didnt go around sayin how bad ass i was, i listened until i could make my own opinion on it. most noobs on here dont do this but alot on the official boards do and its annoing as hell, thats why i dont like most of them
For the past year or so I've sorta been a metal elitist IRL, but I've backed off on that because metal has lost it's original shine for me. I believe that music is subjective, so me judging other people's tastes is hypocritical imo. It's still my favorite music genre, but beyond that... blerp.
all im saying is when peope get into something they should keep there mouth shut and just listen. like if i took up skiing and in two weeks i babbled about how much i love it and how i know better skis than you do and you pants werent as good as mine, etc to someone who had been skiing for 20 years. youd be like wtf SHUT UP
fine new example, it be like someone who had just drank there first five beers in there life, being keystone light and then telling someone who writes reviews in a beer magazine that he knows more about beer than him, closer analogy??
