Anonymous Coward User ID: 42061846 Italy 06/30/2013 12:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | LOL look at the black guy in the front row between the 30 second and 50 second mark. The look on his face is like the kids are possessed or something LMAO. Or like oh shit ive never seen a black kid/guy play metal. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 42582924 s metal "white people's music?" I'm not sure I even know what the question means. If the implication of the question is that metal IS only listened to by white people, I denounce that idea as absurd because anybody can see it's plainly untrue. I know black metalheads, Asian metalheads, and a Native American metalhead. Hell, there are Manowar fan organizations in West Africa! there are still misguided metalheads who applaud the ideals and philosophy of Varg Vikernes of the one-man band Burzum, despite Vikernes's open worship of Nazism and Adolf Hitler and his recent denunciation of black metal in general. Some bands from the Northern European scene, and/or fans of such bands, have forwarded ideas that such bands (particularly black metal bands) somehow support or advance neo-pagan or "Aryan" supremacy, and should be seen as rallying points for people to "take back" white homelands "threatened" by inferior peoples. In North America, racism in metal seems a little less prominent, if one discounts the ugly scene of Nazi hardcore, punk and ambient outfits which aren't really metal anyway, but it undoubtedly still exists. Thankfully these kinds of ideas tend to occupy a lunatic fringe of the metal scene, as I don't feel that the majority of metal fans or metal bands embrace, or even tolerate, racist tendencies.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 40918101 Estonia 06/30/2013 01:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am usually surprised when I see a black person playing in a metal band that isn't rap / hip hop based. By surprised I do not mean I think he/she shouldn't be there. I mean surprised as in a reaction like "COOL." Same thing goes when you find out about those who are metal heads because METAL IS FOR EVERYONE. I know it's a stereotype to associate blacks with rap, but the majority of rap artists are black and when you see a white dude doing the rap thing I always wonder why he's acting like a black gangster. So perhaps there are black rap dudes who look at one of their buddies strangely who listens to metal because they like music mainly played by whites. It's very petty to view music like this but it is the way it is. So there are differences that I see between what people of different races seem to like, but metal can cross those boundaries and make us all brothers. Racism is so silly anyway. We're all people, we all are pretty much the same. What will racists do when the aliens come to town and they are green, purple, blue and those that are not even corporally shaped? What will they do then? Learn to hate the purple aliens with one leg and seven eyes but the green aliens with four legs are cool? See how retarded that sounds? Well that's just how retarded racism is to me. If you want to hate something, hate it for a reason not for a skin color! No wonder the aliens haven't revealed themselves to us. I wouldn't if I were one and looked at our society where people hate and kill one another based on their skin color and religion. This world is fucked up sometime rap is cool |
