Dumbest thing someone said to you about Metal?
"That music makes me nervous" - My mom
"You can't hear what the guy is singing!" - One of my dumb friends, about Black Metal
When I think of more I'll let you know.
-Edit-
Before any of you post something about the thread, especially about "finding people dumb because they don't like metal" , I want to state that I ask this only because I find it totally ridiculous to critisize music with such dumb arguments.

haha When a "dinosaur" says they can't understand the words ask them what the lyrics are to "Louie, Louie." I bet they get pissed and leave you alone.

His friends aren't dinosaurs. Plus everyone knows the lyrics to 'Louie, Louie' by now, past controversies about the potential vulgarity of the words notwithstanding. And, finally, 'Louie, Louie,' when you know the lyrics, tends to be less offensive/harmful/stupid than most metal lyrics that are growled or screeched.
People don't say anything dumber about metal than the people here say about the genres they don't understand (and metalheads understand very little). Getting indignant over it is pretty fucking dumb.

The dumbest thing that comes to mind is when Judas Priest were convicted of their music being responsible for the suicide of a teen. The message (while playing the LP backwards) was, "do it." I guess that's a stupid said thing said about a metal band, and not the genre...

I can't believe you're too stupid to realize that metal is the best genre of music ever. Actually only a very small portion of metal is good, the rest is fuckin' gay. Plus, you can't spell "crap" without "rap." Get it?? LOL! And emo is fuckin' gayer than the gayest fuckin' gayness.
I can't believe people can listen to gay ass gay fuckin' shitty gay shit like Ludacris and then when I play them a fuckin' badass super heavy ass awesome song like "Fermented Offal Discharge" n' they say gay shit like "YOU WORSHIP SATAN, I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT HE'S SAYING!" Fuck that shit, only a dumbass could no understand Muhammad, plus his sweeps are fuckin' AMAZING. Rap is gay as shit! I can't even understand what the hell they say!

the otherday i watched some classmates reading cannibal corpse lyrics and laughing at them "who listens to this shit!" etc
after being offended for about 30 seconds i realized that the lyrics really are stupid and metal heads tend to take stuff more seriously than it should. nobody ever really gives you a hard time about what you listen to (last i checked there isnt a music Gestapo) . a little ribbing never hurt anyone

If you're not being sarcastic, then I feel really bad for you.
Transient, I came to that same realization before I even really liked Cannibal Corpse and most other death metal. It's alright to like those sorts of things though. I just put their lyrics into the same category as my reasons for liking Friday the 13th movies. While being ridiculous, it can still be entertaining as long as you let it be.
I just want to say that this thread is going to end up with about 3000 posts of people saying the same god damn thing over again about it being "just noise" or "satan's music" or whatever else so a bunch of high schoolers can talk about how dumb other people are and how cool they are for listening to this...
I guess to put it bluntly, I really hope this thread gets someone saying something retarded so it gets closed soon. It just seems pointless to me, which is why this will probably be my only post.

"I saw Slipknot Live. They are really hardcore!"
"I saw Metallica live. They are really hardcore!"
"I saw Opeth live. They sucked!"
They last two no one has said to me, yet, but I think they are really misguided statements.
Edit- I do get that whole "I don't understand what they are saying." Half the time, I actually don't understand them. Unless I read the lyrics, it does sometimes sound like alot of growling, although I know that's not what it is. Honestly, I don't pay much attention to the lyrics as I do the instruments. I know that sounds a little shallow, since a good chunk of metal is defined by the lyrics, in my opinion. I'm just more inspired by the instruments than I am the singer.
I also sometimes get that whole "That's the devil's music" argument. Some of the adults that give me this bullshit are the same parents that let their 12 year old daughters dress up like their favorite whorish pop star bimbo and go parading their skin in schools and other public places. I don't care what music anyone else listens to, but don't go talking about how corrupt metal is until you put some clothes on that lip-syncing fake you call a star.
If metal is truly the devil's music, I say to these parents "tell the devil I said 'thank you' when you see him in Hell."

yeah i know, but im just saying a lot of people just read lyrics (maybe not THAT over the top, but gore lyrics, murder lyrics) and just think "wow thats badass" because its metal. if you take a step back and look at some of the lyrics from a non metalheads perspective, it IS ridiculous. even great songs like thrones of blood has silly lyrics
dont take music too seriously is what im saying

I don't really get upset when someone hears metal and doesn't like it. It's perfectly understandable why someone who's not used to it would say dumb shit about it. You either like it or you don't -- it doesn't require a philosophical conversation to sort out. So any argument about it, in my opinion, is stupid. Music is music, art is art, and personal preference is personal preference. With that said, I think the dumbest thing anyone ever said about metal was something to the effect of, "Anyone who doesn't listen to this shit should fuckin' die!". People who regard any style of music as superior to all others and can't grasp the concept of personal preference are idiots.

The dumbest thing a dumb friend has ever said to me is that Sum41 are more technical than ANY metal, which was said after he made me listen to some solo on their latest album.
So I proved him wrong (easily) and he started playing that he was joking yadayadayada. I know he believed himself for a portion in time.
I posted a massive rant on this over a year ago, but ill never forget the feeling I got when he said that. It's the feeling you get when you witness someone being completely ignorant through stupidity. Im sure PST 88 gets that feeling throughout most of his day

This post typifies whats goin on in this thread; a whole lot of nothin. No one asked for philosophies, just stupid things people have said to you about metal. Not, why people dont get metal, or how metal heads are apparently understand very few genres. Just stupid things said about metal.
Stupid things Ive had said? Not too much. The normal, such as "Why do you listen to that, you cant hear what theyre saying" and I used to get the whole "its talentless anyone can do it" line, but thats died down a lot now. Yeah, I dont think Ive had anything utterly retarded said to me in quite some time. Ill have to change that.

Do a lot of people into TRUE SATANTIC NORVEGEGIAN B[A{K M3TA) actually take it seriously?
75% of the lyrics I listen too, I don't take seriously at all...they are just a joke more or less.

Oh, that happens...it's because that's what the mass media sees..hell, when I first saw a video of Slipknot in grade 6 I thought it was insanity.

"There's no melody to it, it's just loud noise"
What the fuck do you call melodic metal? Also how can solos not be melodic? Probably they must think that limp bizkit is categorized as heavy metal.

People who think Slipknot and Korn are death metal only think that because of lack of exposure. As I already said, you're all exactly as ignorant about other genres, especially when they're more obscure and further from what you hear every day, so don't worry about it. The best statement so far in this thread came from Transient, when he said that metalheads take all this shit too seriously. You do. There's no reason in the world for somebody who doesn't like metal to be familiar with it at all, any more than there's a reason for the people here to have an in depth knowledge of little-known rappers.

"it sounds like hes burping" a girl said this about Nile.
"metal makes people do bad things" news or something
"they are just randomly pounding the drums" and idiot
"thats scary" a girl
"are they devil worshipers?" some guy
"would you listen to that in front of god" grandma
i used to like a christian metal band called Living Sacrifice back in middle school. for anyone who is laughing, they actually arnt that bad. i dont know how they are anymore, but i still have Reborn, and its the closest christian band ive heard come to death metal so far. anyway, i showed them to my mom a long time ago and she said "how do you know they arnt really satanic, and pose as christians to lure you in". ...ok, lure you into what?! buying the cd? well i would have done that whether or not they were christian. and whats worse is you can say the same thing about EVERY artist because we dont really know what other people believe in anyway. meh

My sister said she was going to buy me a cd a few months ago, so when we were at the store I picked out Scars of the Crucifix by Deicide... The obviously displeased 'christian' read the song titles and commented aloud "Conquered by Saddam? Are they from Iraq or something?" I just grabbed the CD from her hands and put it back... A few weeks later my mom asked me if I listen to a satanic band from Iraq and that my sister was concerned.... Yeah.....

something that REALLY pissed me off once was when my uncle said music is just a fad we go through. he said id like something else when i get older. i could probably write an essay on why that is wrong, but ill just stick with

2. my emotional connection is so strong that some songs can make me cry
3. i have about 3000 dollars in cds and love them, im never leaving them.

I think if my grandmother could ask me to turn up King Crimson "In the Court of the Crimson King" because she liked it I can give about anything a listen at least once. Sometimes I'll listen to Nile or sometimes Fraggle Rock. It depends on my mood.
I don't know if wally even knows this, but I didn't really get into stuff like Zeppelin til the early 80's. It was just too heavy for me except for the mainstream stuff and the media taught me that Black Sabbath was bad and caused people to do evil stuff so I never gave them much chance. I was very skeptical when wally started playing Sabbath and Pantera, but when I heard him play and heard some of the cd's I changed my way of thinking. I was concerned about the wives tales passed along like when I was younger. That's happened throughout the centuries and not just currently. I also thought about the mentality of my kids and their friend's and realized they wouldn't think of it as being anything, but entertainment.
A lot of music has artistry to it, but I think that a lot of metal is over the top in technicality compared to other stuff.

I once showed someone Luminum - Cryptopsy. They said it was Country music.
Of course theres always the "Slipknot is death metal/the heaviest... Metallicas the best... Its all just RAW RAW RAWR!!" shit, but weve all heard that a million times.
EDIT: One time I said that Necrotic was looking for a drummer and one of my friends (hes in Cadets and plays the snare) said hed play for us, but hes too busy. He also said there was nothing to it. I await the day he hears Cryptopsy. or Hate Eternal.
EDIT2: Also, not so much about metal, but music in gerenal, but I hate it when people say "Ya I listen to a bit of everything" and you look at theyre playlist and its all rap and Emo.

There's no reason in the world for somebody who doesn't like metal to be familiar with it at all, any more than there's a reason for the people here to have an in depth knowledge of little-known rappers.

Well fuck that. I just find it funny (well a bit disturbing) that people call Slipknot and Korn death metal. I don't listen to only metal, if it it sounds good I will enjoy it wether it is rap, pop, emo (although highly unlikely), soul, blues or jazz and whatever. People who take their taste in music too seriously annoy me.
If YOU think it sounds good it is good.

I think that the whole 'the instrumentation takes no talent' argument is very plainly moot, and even people who lob that criticism end up admitting that they're aware of it, once you start listing how many beats per minute Severed Savior or Hate Eternal rips off cleanly and accurately, and then giving them your mp3 player to listen, they have to eat their words, plain and simple.
But the one thing that really pisses me off, is how even after that, they remark that the vocals take absolutely no talent. None whatsoever, they just open their mouths and it happens ( people who hold this opinion often follow a remark like that by making a noise that sounds like someone making fun of the elderly by exaggerting the sound of their tired throats ), that anyone at all can do it.
What I do every time this happens is that I respond by pulling out my very best Devourment-esque growl and ask the person to do exactly that. EXACTLY that. The raspy old-man's loud breathing does'nt count. I put them on the spot, and they end up admitting that that too is a craft.

"aaah! turn it off it's really scaring me" - ex girlfriend referring to Nile, wasn't a long relationship...
My brother often says "Thats shit, they might as well be playing anything" when I play him some of the more technical/random stuff, like goratory or behold the arctopus, he says the same about ornette coleman too. To me that is why its good. It sounds totally chaotic, but has been specifically written to achieve that effect - that is not easy to do.
I always feel sorry for people whos parents actively disapprove of metal. Especially when they assume that their child is a complete retard and incapable of thinking for him or herself - ie that they are going to end up killing themselves, others or both as a result of listening to metal. I think its more of an american thing.
My parents have never really commented on it, except my dad when he tells me how impressive it looks when I play, he fully acknowleges the skill involved, but then says I should concentrate on 'nice music' (he plays folk guitar).

Its great when they try to back out of it --- "That's stupid, I'm not doing that" "Well, you put your foot in your mouth when you said it takes no effort. So fucking do it if its so easy or shut up."

That could be a little bit. I think new genres of music scare and intimidate and not just here or recently. And the "media gossip" is partly to blame. I even fussed about the boys watching The Simpson's, Beavis and Butthead, and South Park until I started watching them to see for myself what it was about to form my own opinions. I treat music the same way though some I delve into more than others.

I get where you are comming from. I used to get that "you are just in a phase" thing a while ago. It was rather annoying.
And it's pretty egocentrical, whining to get silly statements when you are blaring br00tal technical deathmetal at 100's of decibells to people not into metal. That said, I usualy don't blast my shit when I am sure people are not going to enjoy it. They don't play their crappy rap shit to me. It's a trade, see?

Some of those just sound like people fucking with you to piss you off, not actual beliefs of the person, though I wouldn't doubt it with some people.

I'm not sure exactly what the person said to me, but it was along the lines of "you'll eventually stop playing guitar and listening to metal and settle down,etc,..."-once again along the lines of metal being a fad
"So many rappers get shot and killed, it's about time someone in metal got killed(referring to Dimebag)"-That one pissed me off alot, especially since it was on the day he was killed.

then check this out. after that i asked my uncle what his favorite bands were... he said he didnt have "favorite bands". he said he liked a few and thats it. i told him "well theres where we are different. you dont care about music, thats why you think its a fad". and now that i remember, he said "ok play me something on your guitar. i played something melodic i made and he just said "ok" after about 10 seconds and left the room. before this i thought he was an ok guy... hes a dick.

Most of those rappers fucking ask for it. Look at the lifestyle they whore out to make money. Of course its going to get too serious.
Metal is just so taxing compared to other genres. The vocallist HAS to throw every ounce of energy outward, and direct it all correctly. Guitarists have to have amazing dexterity and precision, and a fuckin huge knowledge of their instrument. Drummers are just fuckin amazing, the difference between casual drumming and metal drumming is sooo fuckin far apart.
I think I love metal so much because it can be both beautiful, and it can be pure channelled aggression.

I hate it when people say that. It is probably the most ignorant statement they can make. This one guy on the other forum said something like "I like Metallica, Greenday, Slipknot, Korn, SOAD, pretty much just all music in general."

It's a shame that people like that exist. Especially with that Dime comment. I hate little wiggers who think the music they listen to is the shit.

Even as a metalhead I can still appeciate the heart that rap musicians have given to the world. No matter the music you make, is it not the heart and soul you put into it that makes it worth hearing?
It is just ignorant to compare who got shot and died and what music they played. I'm betting that $0.50 wasn't attacked at near point blank range by a trained ex Marine that was tought how to kill fast and efficiently. Poor Dime didn't stand a chance. No one would have at that moment.

Even though rap is my least favorite genre of music, you're right about how they put their heart and soul into it. It's mainly the fans of rap I can't stand...
... well actually, come to think of it, I can't stand any extreme fans of any genre of music. The minds of these people are more narrow than an obese man's arteries. They can't open their minds for a second. It's like they think if you appreciate a specific genre alot, you have to be loyal to it or something. Even people who are extreme fans of bands or rap groups, who are even labeled for liking them, like maggots or juggalos. Something I heard in St. Louis; they don't play music from ICP because a bunch of crazy "juggalo" kids attacked this radio station dude who bashed them on the radio. Because of a bunch of kids who can't stand other people's opinions, ICP apparently isn't aired on the radio here. Not that it's a big loss, but still. Kind of ridiculous.

Guitarists have to have amazing dexterity and precision, and a fuckin huge knowledge of their instrument. Drummers are just fuckin amazing, the difference between casual drumming and metal drumming is sooo fuckin far apart.
I think I love metal so much because it can be both beautiful, and it can be pure channelled aggression.

I totally agree with you there. Many rappers used to previously or still have a connection in one way or another to gangs. And once you're in you can never get out. Then when they make all that money they do they flaunt it around like assholes. Plus they probably make so many enemies with the way they live,like you said, that they end up getting killed for stupid reasons.
I also agree with waht Soulinsane said. I do appreciate how some,but not all rappers put their heart into writing their lyrics and such. But even though i appreciate it, it doesn't mean i have to enjoy listening to their music which some people just cant understand. I just hate it when people talk shit about metal and when i talk shit about the music they like they call me an asshole for speaking the truth about how much more skill it takes to play metal than all that pop punk,emo,etc.
RIP Dime

I know two people who like just about anything as long as it is interesting and has alot of talent into it. Reggae, Metal, Blues, Progressive rock, Classic rock, Psychadelic, Ambient, Doom, etc. but they are exceptions.
The stupidest thing I have ever heard is someone telling me Opeth is better than metal. Opeth is metal, and second of all Jason Becker, who is also metal wipes the floor with anyone, period, and he played shred which is a cousin of metal.
I also get annoyed by the people who shit talk black metal and don't have any idea what it's actually about. Black metal was created in a scene where egos revolving around musicianship were almost non existant, and the musicians strived to sound dark, brutal, and aggressive.
Technicality was not nearly as important as darkness. And the thing is, alot of people don't know where to begin if they wanted to sound truely dark, depressive, and haunting. Black metal doesn't have to be complicated blasturbation to be good music, black metal has to sound dark.

When people associate metal with evil. Especially when its totally irrelavent content in the music. (Nile for example.) Also, when people just music on ONLY the vocal content/lyrics. Or when people just music by its label (Example, a [person] dissaproving, before listening to, a jazz or blues song. Just because its a jazz or blues song.)

Black metal was created by a bunch of bored Norwegian townsfolk. Who got tired of fishing and fucking each other's girlfriends, and strived to sound dark, brutal, and aggressive.
The dumbest thing is people having an immediate connection in their minds that metal=satan.

I'm guessing they burned down churches because they were bored too huh? You have to admit that there was a dark and evil verisimilitude present with these Norwegian townsfolk. Even though Darkthrone were nothing but some Norwegian hippys who happened to enjoy punk and metal. And most of them started out as teenagers who just happened to have stumbled upon a Bathory album.

I talked to my friend yesterday.. he said two things that have already been said in this thread probably.. "you can't even understand what they are saying".. "rap has more emotion and feeling".. and my favortie.. "anyone can do that.. GRRROWWLLL!!" The worst imitation of Muhammed's voice ever..
so I pull out some guitar tabs and shove it in his face.. and at this point he goes " whatever.. it's all stupid to me.. it's just music"..
sad

One of the prevalent notions in Trinity Broadcasting Network Bible Belt christianity is that if someone listens to metal, then Satan came out of the speakers, opened their head like a plastic hinged easter egg, corrupted their mind, closed it back up and like a zombie the person goes and axe-murders someone. This is what happens every time someone kills themself or someone else when the person happens to like metal ( or just hard rock in general ), according to many christians I've talked to ( or those who talked to me without me initiating anything ).
Well, what about that church lady that just recently murdered her pastoral husband because there was 'something evil in that house' ? What about the 40 year old who shot a 60 year old's face off because he did'nt believe in God?
"Oh, those people are just crazy".
That is a fucking slap in the face to the friends and family of the kids who killed themselves listening to Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne, Slipknot, whatever. Those bands and artists were demonized and sought after in court, despite their issuing apologies for something they did'nt even do, and trying to raise awareness that its a legitimate fantastic medium of art, like theater or literature, and that if you take any of it literally, then you need to get help! Its extremely disrespectful to say that these kids did'nt have problems, that they did'nt need help, that a few bands are what's to blame for their failing elementary school, for their being abused as young children, for their social rejections. That 'Satan' was causing it, and the people who commit murders from reading the Old Testament happen to have legitimate psychosi.
Me = just thinking about it.

stupid comments
on the technicality of metal (in reference to necrophagist's "stabwound" from another "musician" none the less) "all these guys do is play fast anyone can do that .just because you can play faster doesnt mean you can play better".
also, you know how people will yell out the name of the band their seeing? "torture killer!!woooooooo!!!" well some shit faced girl who clearly was not there to see the absence, just yelled out "wooo!!! heavy metal!!!"
