Fun Stuff > BAND
cheesey metal that you can't help but loving
Nodaisho:
At least some bands today still do it, at least for pictures. All of the ones I have seen are ones I had never heard of though. Excepting that one band, what were they? All of them were young, really fat kid singing, female guitarist, seemed to be a parody of black metal? Hard to tell on that last bit, though. Sometimes I wonder if all the black metal elitism is one huge joke, tongue held firmly in corpse-painted cheeck.
Ballard:
I'm almost certain it is. If not entirely, then it's certainly laced with plenty of theatrics.
lepeste:
but isnt every genre?
the metal genre is just more humourous when analyzing it.
because everything with them is so over the top and absurd theatrics.
Ballard:
I don't mean stage presence and entertainment and the like. I mean over-the-top circus theatrics. Most contemporary metal considers itself serious business, but Norwegian Black Metal is almost like /b/ in it's ironic ridiculousness.
Hat:

Yo.
And while it technically classifies as cock rock, if we can slot it into hair-metal, I fucking LOVE me some Motley Crue. Also, Helloween.
