This is my new favorite thread boo squared. The metalhead entry made me lose it laughing. Especially this line.

"Prog metalheads: A close relative of the power metal fan, but even more pretentious. They call themselves prog fans but prog metal is the only kind they care about. To them it all started with dream theater. Their idea of progressive is "having a keyboardist"."

I can't wait to see your review on grunge boys.

I'm sure a Hardcore kid entry is coming up soon enough.....Although i don't really ahve a problem with hardcore kids.

I think musicians deserve a place on this list but Boo Boo would never do that.

Shredheads are easily the worst. They love music for all of the wrong reasons. The worst part is they dismiss electronic music completely. You have no idea how many times I've heard "They're not even playing REAL instruments!" Makes me ****ing rage.

I used to be this like a year to two years ago, that was until I started getting into other stuff like new wave, house, techno, etc. and cut my hair. However, I still despise Nirvana. =)

Well they're not.

Hey boo boo do Pop fans now (the funniest are the ones who listen and like lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Miley Cyrus (well any musician from Disney)).

actually many electronic bands do just not all. (every electronic band ever on sub pop records are some good examples)
even Dntel doesn't only use digital instruments, and also music is sound sound is made by anything and everything.

(Jimmy Tamborello and Ben Gibbards are the best musicians of electronic music ever)

So how is an electronica band with a keyboard plugged into an amplifier 'not a real instrument', and yet a guitar plugged into one is? Considering amplifiers are built from electronics, pretty much everything that utilizes an electric guitar could be considered 'electronic'.

So am I saying AC/DC is an electronica band? No, however for the sake of argument, their music is no more "fake" than that of, say, Dan Deacon.


Oh and also, you missed a metal sub-genre:


Crust/Grindcore Fans

I happen to know alot of these, since a group of my friends in high school was engrained into the grindcore scene heavily enough to play with alot of these old fat losers. They're all essentially spoiled brats who not only take pride in listening to anything 'unlistenable' (aka anything that glorifies rape, serial killers, or graphic 'poo-poo' humor while playing music that appears difficult to play but just sounds like white-noise), and are so obsessed with the fact that they don't want to appear 'ingenuine', that they act like complete cunts on a daily basis. These people are stuck in Middle School bully mode, which is why them, and their music, will never be successful.

You can usually spot them wearing black T-shirts with stupid looking gory cartoons of naked hairy women having sex while being disemboweled, with an unreadable band name painstakingly scrawled in order to be unreadable to anyone who doesn't already know the band (a great elitism tactic). They tend to be unshowered drug addicts, who appear scary, but are most likely crying on the inside.

Man, I didn't want to dignify those assh*les by even acknowledging their existance.
