doesn't need anything from the preceding definitions, just needs to love metal with all their body and soul. Usually drinks alot, and hates other cultures, especially stoners. i'm not going to give you ways to identify a metal head. If they want to identify them selves, they will, and just saying that they all wear black and leather is just fucking stereotyping the people who wear all black and leather which may very well be faggoths (fags who listen to gay music and cut themselves and cry and write poems about how the can't get chicks.)
I am so fucking hammered right now i can hardly see. DIMMU BORGIR

Loyal obsessors over the music genre of metal and it's several subgenres. They are often elitist assholes who hate any band that has more than 5 fans. Metalheads may also try to be noncomformists but usually do not succeed due to the fact that they end up blending in with all the other retarded metalheads in their cult. Metalheads enjoy cheesy corpse paint, butt rock, and sometimes, satan. They also enjoy pissing people off and saying "SLAYER!" at completely random and innoportune times because they think they are cool. They find all music besides metal inferior, and if you insult one of the bands they like, they will launch a personal attack at you. Essentially, metalheads think they are better than everyone else because their music has technical guitars, shitty vocals, double bass drumming, violence, satan, and anarchist themes. And black metal fans like to kill small animals.
Metalheads like to grow their hair out to feminine lengths and never wash it. They wear large clothing and graphic, black band tees. They never smile in pictures and headbang when they listen to music with headphones. For entertainment, they like to poke people in the emotional spots that hurt the most to feel satisfied about their lack of achievement in their metal obsessed lives. They often play weirdly shaped, ugly, angular black guitars with almost non-existant necks (see: BC Rich) through crappy solid state modeling amps like Line 6's. They also think that high output pickups are the only pickups that sound good. They shun larger quality guitar companies like Gibson and buy Schecters because they think Korean assembly line guitars somehow top American hand made models, for a lower price of course. When they encounter other guitar players who do not shred, they immediately decide that these players suck, even though their personal attempts at shredding sound like pure shit. Metalheads play guitar with distateful amounts of gain and too much treble.

1. Guy: "I don't really like Slayer."
Metalhead: "FUCK YOU! YOU IDIOTIC PIECE OF SHIT, YOU HAVE NO TASTE IN MUSIC!!! SLAYERRRRRRR!"
2. Guy: "I like Children of Bodom."
Black Metal Fan: "You're retarded, that band SUCKS. THEY'RE SO MAINSTREAM!!!! How could you like a band whose records don't sound like they were recorded on a four-track!?!?"
3. Guy: "I like *insert mainstream rock band here*."
Metalhead: "They SUCK. They have too many fans! And they play powerchords!!11! OMG EW POWERCHORDS."
(Note: Even most metal bands use powerchords in their music. Sorry, you superior metalheads.)
4. Guy: "I'm feeling depressed."
Metalhead: "Go slit your wrists and die, you fucking pussy."

A metalhead is a fan of Heavy, Speed, Doom, Thrash, Death and Black Metal and Grindcore as well as other related genres such as AOR, Hard FM, Hard Rock or Prog Rock. Sterotypically dumb and voilent this is mainly not true. Metalhead do not like mainsteam music (e.g. nu-metal, metalcore, Pop Metal, pop, urban...). Metalhead usally wears a black band t-shirt, blue or black jeans or camo trousers or shorts, a leather or denim jacket or vest with patches and badges, may have studed black leather arm bands and jewellry of a satanist nataur.

Entry no. 5 in this was good, but you missed out some MAJOR bands! Erm... Motorhead, Judas Priest, to name a couple! I was born of metalheads, and i can handle my drink. I keep up wiv the folks, and they're fuckin BIKERS!!! Unlike the townies who get pissed on half a bottle of alco-pop! Any true metalhead should drink beer, beer and more beer, have an inhuman love for motorbikes and worship Black Sabbath. And be half deaf from the volume 11 music...! Oh, and here's a tip, please please please don't wear a brand-spanking squeaky new leather jacket until its worn in a bit, it makes you look like an extra for grease. Cheers.
The metalhead got so into headbanging to motorhead, he didn't notice his beer had spilt all over his jacket which already had beer and cum stains all over it. Oh well, better cover it up with another patch i suppose...!

Anyone who lives and breathes the genre of metal. Metalheads also hate the mainstream shit and get pissed off when someone says their tatse of music comes from the radio and MTV. Open minded metalheads love everything from the legendary Black Sabbath to the wave of nu metal that errupted in the 90s. And don't stereotype bout a metalhead's appearance either; we arn't all long haired people that get drunk on a regular basis. And we aren't all goths either. The whole point of being a metalhead is to let the music become part of your soul and to realise that nothing else in the world matters. Proper metalheads should be open minded about every last bit of metal and at least give it a try.
Awesome bands: Iced Earth, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Slayer, Coal Chamber, Disturbed, System Of A Down and Static- X.
Oh and Korn isn't a bad band, but they're more rock than metal. This is why many metalheads don't like them probably.

Explicitly, a metalhead likes metal music. A metalhead will travel if they have to, to see their heroes preform. The roadtrip is not a defining feature, but does demonstrate the level of commitment a metalhead has and is an essential element to almost any movie about metalheads. Metalheads recognize that jazz flute is not a an element of metal music and therefore does not recognize Jethro Tull as a metal band. Metalheads recognize that clothes are just clothes, but will beat down the kid in the pit who is wearing a Jethro Tull or Justin Beiber tee. All metalheads hate Justin Beiber especially and recognize him as everything that is wrong in the world. Metalheads have made a life long commitment to the genre and once they give up metal (very few do) completely, only then are they no longer metalheads. The metalhead lifestyle does require concert attendance or else you are either a closet metalhead or a lapsed metalhead. Concerts are like the metalhead church. Concerts are defined as at least a band playing metal music and any number of people listening. Finally, a metalhead recognizes the pirchfork/devilhorn hand gesture as the official metalhead blessing and knows that the forks are the creation of the metal pioneer, Ronnie James Dio, rest his soul.
That metalhead dude never misses a Slayer show if its within 100 miles of him. He will take time off of work and make personal sacrifices to make it there.
