not in a history way. More in a way that people think being an emo leads to becoming an metalhead

yea okay, but it would take a lot of people for that to happen...

well true you're right on that. But again using Matt as an example, he has searched back to the true roots of Metal, stuff like Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. Though I do agree that most emo fans would NEVER do that, Matt is a rare exception.

Well using the youngsters around here as examlpe, they might be walking around in Iron Maiden shirts but then the next days they are wearing Green Day shirts. And then they play all the 'heaviest', loudest music in the bus aloud so everyone could hear how cool they are. I hate this kinda people

actually most people are thinking those music styles are combined already anyways. That's probably why we get more and more shitty bands in Wacken. They are working their way to emo

I agree. But the interesting thing is, when NuMetal was big, the WOA orgas did not book those bands ( a good thing)

don't you see that's what already is happening? Why do you think Wacken changes?

kinda depends on which label they are, lot of bands on wacken are on Nuclear Blast, like that screamo band

Very true, those kids are about image, and trying to be cool, not really about the music, they wear music like fashion, not a true passion.

btw. I have seen the NEWS showing some girls screaming around at a Tokio Hotel concert and doing \,,/, when the camera went by. And then they said: These little metal fans have come all the way... blablabla

Well you are musicaly very advanced I'd say, and that IS a compliment!

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

don't you see that's what already is happening? Why do you think Wacken changes?

because it's the new trend...
metal's entering the mainstream again, like 80s glam metal, and sooo the festivals are starting to see that.

that's why you don't watch the news about metal
you can't trust them to put out anything but what people want to hear
