What type of music fan is the worst? (hardcore, indie)

Zero1986 · 05-12-2008, 07:33 AM

I think hardcore metalheads are just the worst. They're just a bunch of narrow-minded idiots, i mean not every music genre besides metal is for f*gs. Even metal bands that get a taste of success are labelled 'f*gs'.

Next would be the 'indie kids' who dont know what indie music is. They listen to bands like Hard-Fi, The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, The Kooks etc who are all on major labels, therefore not indie.

Indie bands don't necessarily have to be on a small label, though you're right in that none of those bands are particularly indie musically.

I think the interwebz elitist music fans are the worst

Well I work in a rock bar so I come across a lot of classic rock dinosaurs, they can't get over the fact that I'd rather listen to LCD Soundsystem than Led Zeppelin.

But it does generally include substantial compositional sophistication. And the sorts of fans I refer to think this is a prerequisite of music having any value.

I haven't heard of any such fans ever.
It might apply to dream theater fanbois or some progressive metal fans, but generally, ppl who listen to say- pink floyd, genesis, gentle giant etcetc. listen to other stuff as well.(or at least the one's i know do!)

Anybody who is a fan boy/girl of a particular band or genre and has to prove to you why their tastes are better then yours. I've seen this in all genres so I can't name one.

Ones that don't play any instruments but think they know more than people who do.

Yeh I guess you would, huh?

Arctic Monkeys= Domino Recording Company (indie label)

Hard Fi= Necessary Records (indie label)
