Usually consists of a band, who’
s sound is obviously derives from metal (has metal influences), such as distorted electrical guitars, and
bass guitars, rapid drumming, and
heavy vocals. However the difference between faggoth metal and REAL metal is the ideology of the band itself. A faggoth metal band usually poses for
popular magazines, while signing on to giant labels in hopes of getting more money. Once this happens and faggoth metal band becomes
popular and forgets why they wrote
music to begin with. Faggoth metal bands are known to become quite bastardized, and begin adding their own catchy melodies, such as synths, pop-influenced playing style and
female vocals. Other faggoth metal bands become so melodic and catchy, that eventually mainstream hits become inevitable. Faggoth metal bands are extremely
popular in faggoths/mallgoths that have a conviction that they are listening to the heaviest form of
music known to man, which is the only real reason they listen to it. Adherents of faggoth metal are either posers who are too intimidated by the real real metal culture, and know it, thus this becomes the next best thing for them. Either that or some douche bag jock who think it makes him/her appear tough. Unfortunately for them, this is untrue, and in fact, faggoth metal bands are generally rejected and ridiculed by true metalheads. Prime examples of a faggoth metal bands are Cradle of Filth (the quintessential example), and
Slipknot (they are really a hard rock band, but you get the picture).
Faggoth Metal fan: “
Dude, this
fucking band is so hardcore! I love it, you should listen to it!”
Me: “I rather not…”
Faggoth Metal fan: “
Yea, I
bet…it’s because you’re too much of a
pussy to listen to this, plus you’
ve been affected by the mainstream…”
Me: “Actually, it is YOU that have been affected by the mainstream, which is the primary reason you listen to this sell out band. You think that this makes you an anti-conformist, when in fact, this makes you much more of a tool than the preps…And BTW, this is not death metal, it is FAGGOTH metal. If you want death metal, may I suggest a Morbid Angel album?”
Faggoth Metal fan: “Morbid who?!? That’s not metal…I mean…this…is…scary….AHH!!” *runs like a girl and gets hit by a speeding biker, instantly becoming decapitated in half*
Me: *shakes
head* “ahh…kids these days…”
