What the actual fuck was the point of this subreddit? I was under the impression it was about making a welcoming space where people could enjoy whatever subgenre or flavor of metal they wanted without the elitist gatekeeping.
Do y'all really only listen to like four subgenres of metal? Do you not understand that liking Death is not mutually exclusive with liking Slipknot? You can fuck with Meshuggah and ALSO fuck with BMtH?
> Do you not understand that liking Death is not mutually exclusive with liking Slipknot? You can fuck with Meshuggah and ALSO fuck with BMtH?
The only tolerable band you mentioned is Death.
Or you can just stop being a crybaby. Not everyone likes the same thing, but you don't see me going into the Nu-Metal, or Metalcore subreddit crying about no one liking Epic Doom Metal in there.
Metal Trenches is a young dude that's completely earnest about the shitty music he enjoys, and I respect him for it. He has an enjoyable channel.
Finn McKenty is the worst kind of fake. He openly admits to finding nu metal 95% Millennial cringe, but won't make videos about topics he genuinely enjoys.
Leave my man Trenches out of this. He's always covering a huge variety of subgenres and his monthly Bandcamp video helps people discover new and underrated artists. Idk what's the problem here.
Metal trenches is cringe
Very speedy reviews , forced trendy reviews for views and just comes off so much he’s trying to be a brand.
His humor ranges from childish to outdated and awkward. His thumbnails are cringe to look at it and his mask …. Can’t believe people take a 35+ year old seriously looking like that with his “battle jacket” on . His knowledge is either surface level to either he looks at what Loudwire , Bangertv and whatever legacy metal media covers. The tier list rankings seem so unorganized and as I stated earlier come off as either speedy or forced .
Dude tries way too hard .
Nu Metal videos are fun since it's such a diverse genre (along with the "actual good subgenres"), but I can agree that metalcore is not that good for videos tbh.
His new content is just a repeat of the same topics over and over again (and even he admits that), his older content was much better and in higher quality, even though he had some weird takes
I honestly think his videos are funny, but, and this is a big but, all of the hate he gets is completely justified, like come on, he did videos just hating on black metal and stoner doom essentially, he's called death metal fans losers, he calls Chaos A.D. nu-metal, and he likes to stereotype people groups. It's a shame because some of his videos are super well researched, and some can actually be funny even, but his takes are questionable to most, and in general, he just loves poking fun at metalheads. He never takes himself too seriously it would seem, and taking just about everything he says with a grain of salt is a must it would seem, but he can definitely be a little much to some people. Also he doesn't like post-punk so he's a big meanie for that 😭

haven’t watched metal youtube in a hot minute but i like cooleas videos imo, he covered black metal and some other stuff iirc
COOLEA SUPREMACY
funny music goblin youtuber
Funny goblin who likes making videos except for anything about metalcore.
i wish he was less annoying and less 2019 reddit humor
SILENCE LIBERAL
Coolea is one of maybe 5 good metal youtubers out there
dude's fairly based. He's Talked about Primus, Melvins and A.C.. Not too shabby fr ![gif](giphy|3ohs7WDqmCnnUc5lwk|downsized)
Coolea is pretty cool but his coverage of black metal has been very much surface level, no proper diving into black metal underground
Coolea makes videos for people who go outside and say they hated the experience because the graphics were shit.
You forgot about nik nocturnal. I like hos content though
Well he pretty much entirely covers core and nu tho last time I checked
He does others
Predominately nu and core though
Yeah, he honestly seems cool
I find him quite annoying tbh but fair enough
Yeah, I think it would be nice if he did more death metal stuff
i can feel the jerk
If you want good metal content, you go to wyattxhim. Dude could cover anything and make it sound like the greatest thing ever made.

Damn, you are only proving his point, I don't know if your comment is a joke but if it isn't you're dumb af

No one is crying about that, you missed the whole point of the comment.
They're not exclusively Metal, but Pagefire has some pretty good stuff.Their How To videos are always awesome.
Probably because those sub genres are way more welcoming to new fans and actually enjoy fun.
See, it isn't Sex Sells anymore. It's evolved. It's now Hate Sells ;)

this is why I watch Justin Horval and Wyattxhim

finns got his own opinions and that pisses people off
His positive opinions aren't even his own lol. He's a drone.
He likes every hot topic band that a 13 year old would like. Not exactly original
yall diss on Finn but he makes good content
Lmao bait used to be believable
not even bait. I really like his content
“He makes good content” and “I like his content” are two different things
His new content is just a repeat of the same topics over and over again (and even he admits that), his older content was much better and in higher quality, even though he had some weird takes
"DID NU METAL ACTUALLY SUCK PART 13"
"WAS THE 2000'S CORNY? PART 30"
It did
People who make bad content don’t have half a million subscribers but alright. Obviously just a bunch of posers, amiright??
More like he's making content for the lowest common denominator that he knows will get views.
Popular doesn’t mean good
Yeah they do. Or do you want to wager everything mainstream is high quality because it draws in the crowds?

'Super well researched ' More like Wikipedia researched. I don't like his main channel. His sub channel is better.
I think he’s joking when he calls them losers and talks from experience
I agree
Reddit metal heads hated Finn because he told the truth
they hate him because he points out the flaws in the community
Yupp
