I will always shit on boomer Metal and I will continue to do so.
But at the same time, I think the schism between new heads and old heads is probably what makes Metal music the best music. music RELEASED TODAY (I'm not going into a scizophrenic rant about Beethtoven being a metal head rn) everything seems to be dead, nothing has any sort of imagination or anything like that and that maybe just me being a metalhead but it's not like I'm living under a rock, I know what's being released right now. Nothing in rock will hit like Swans' "to be kind" (but haha! you need an attention span to appreciate that!) or Daughters "You won't get what you want" (Vocalist and from what I've gathered song writer got hit with allegations, no more Daughters, and also there's alot of noise! you would think that people can appreciate a schizophrenic album like that considering society bottom text but fuck ). And in hip hop theres like what, Yung Lean and Semetary? And both of them take inspiration from other things outside of hip hop? Even right now with hip hop there was that one nigger that released an album and he had a cover of CHOP SUEY
MY point being, while there are many genres of metal, at the end of the day it really just comes down to whether you're an old head listening only to stuff released before 2000 with the odd exceptions or listening to only stuff released after 2000 with the odd exceptions. And I think that is healthy for the metal community. I think that this idea of old heads going "oh look at how heavy shit was back in muh day" with new heads going "umm ackshully" no matter how hard we try to convince one another, its not going to happen. So what does happen is that the old heads and bands trying to keep it true just try to push that sound while the new heads take what they did and push it further in their own way and, well imo I'm a newhead so they push it farther. But that's just my opinion. On the one hand I'm mad at the oldhead for not "getting Job for a Cowboy's Doom Ep" but at the same time, I'm coming to the realization that it's for the best that they don't. It's a good thing that at the end of the day the black metal community is so divided as to what is "old school" and "new school". Because this sort of thinking leads to a competition that is unpreceded in any music genre
