Neapolitan

I have meet fans of each and for some they exist in a bubble where all they listen to is that one genre or type of music and disregard the rest. Out of them some couldn't be bothered while others look down on all other forms of music that is not their own, the latter seems pretentious imo. Whether a particular musician of a genre is the same is up to the individual, it has nothing to do with how much education or whether fans can say something without contention. Maybe on stage a Metal band acts more overtly pretentious because they are putting on a show, and a orchestra might not seem so and they are sitting in tuxedos a, but that doesn't attest to how they act irl. I heard that when Randy Rhoads went to audition for Ozzy he came in with a small practice amp, while every other guitar player came in with Marshall stacks and could play a lick. To me Randy seems so unpretentious at that moment. James Hetfield on the other-hand seems kinda pretentious imho. Like the time he ignore the produce because he was lingering on a chord for too long, and he couldn't handle criticism and was all bent out of shape cause of it. And another thing I like to add, if James Hayfield was J.S. Bach's older brother Hatfield would have sued Bach for copying his manuscripts by candlelight in the middle of the night.
