My Hollow MegaTherion777 My Hollow ashlander_alpha MegaTherion777 ashlander_alpha Just goes to show the ignorance we have to contend with, my brothers and sisters! Go forth and show the true metal way to the masses! no, lets keep it underground and laugh at the ignorant fools Actually, yeah, I like this idea more as well.You both sound like Metal Forum snobs. i, madam, am a purist, not a snob .................Snob! allow me to conduct a test. is slipknot metal or not? in the past, you have (rightfully) insisted that they are not true metal. does that make you a snob? i think not. you're a purist, but that doesn't mean you're overtly rude about it. nor am i. call me what you will but you and i are of the same ilk, hollow, whether you like it or not.

Gravechylde I'm unsure as to whether or not I think metal should stay underground (though I know it always will be). On one hand, it'll be easier to find the albums you're looking for, but on the other hand it'll end up being overrun by even more crappy bands. Well, that's kinda what happened in the 80s. True metal will always be a niche genre; I think that obscurity is actually a big part of what makes it superior.

And saying slipknot isn't metal isn't really being purist, purist would be more along the lines of someone saying any black metal band that has christian lyrics isn't actually black metal.

Purist is more like saying that any band that wants to be in a genre has to stick to strict guidelines that aren't actually requirements of the genre. Like saying all power has to have clean high pitched singing, or that all black metal must be satanic/anti-religious. Ok, it's not a big deal, just saying that's where the snob part came into play.
