Meh this old chestnut.. I hate people that have narrowminded views of metalheads.. That we are all satanic, antisocial, violent, redneck, high school dropouts!
I know this isnt true, im an IT consultant, work hard have my own place earn good money. I know a Metalhead lawyer, and someone who works at a bank.. granted the banker likes trivium
Metal is a brotherhood, a way of life. Granted some of look like we are about to go on a davidian massacre or just got out night of the living dead remake extras.. but 90% of metalheads are good people, in fact some better than others, becuase we refuse to conform and like music for being music not just for being popular!
Sure some black metal has pagan and anti-christian themes, but hell rap music runs round shouting about shooting each other and doing drugs! Now you tell me which one is bad for society..
I read a scientific study recently that puts metalheads similar to classical music fans.
DISCLAIMER: For some reason i decided to rant lol
