Why heavy metal is good for you

Music that gives you energy, lets you work out your aggression, and shows you the world beyond your little corner is somehow bad for you? I've never known anyone with a working brain who thinks heavy metal is bad for you, but it seems a lot of people like to tell me I'm dumb, drunk, smelly and a loser for liking it. I'll blast this link at them.

 

I can't respect someone who disses Nas.

 

seems like the article was written for young teens

 

basical its just some teenager trying to be 'cool' or stand out, most metalheads ar anoying, i only like nerdy metalheads.

 

Seems like it was written by a young teen... What a terrible article.

 

'as impersonal as a history of the civil war.'

wtf? worst simile ever.

 

Hmm, I don't have people tell me those things. Perhaps it's your attitude? I dunno, who cares about such a lame thought that metal is bad for you anyway. Those people are entitled to have their opinion, how uninformed they may be and I really can't see myself giving a remark like that a second thought.
Most annoying thing about metal is probably that some of those metalheads like to act 'bad' and pose the shit out of themselves. Same with for example hip hop I suppose. Actually, besides the differences in the music and subculture the posers of both genres have much more in common as they would like

 

Melodic metal done really well releases my endorphins like few other things can. That's why it's good for me.

 

I think it's pretty obvious the guy who wrote it was a nerd!

A METAL NERD.

 

I don't think I'm a metalnerd but I do think Brutal Legend is the computergame for me :cheers2:
