Is one of the best genres of music ever known to man. However, alot of ignorant fucks thinks it promotes the worship of satan and stuff like that. Well, its not.

Dex the metalhead will NOT listen to songs that don't have kickass guitar solos, amazing bass lines, amazing drumming or great vocals!

If you're under the age of 18, and you think the hip new band you listen to is Metal, chances are, it isn't.
Fat chick: " Leik, OMG, the lead singer of this band soooo cute, and their Tshirt is black, so it will hide my rolls of fat, and I can wear lots of dark makeup and declare myself goth, which, again, will distract from the fat."
Rest of the world: "lol not metal"

The guys tend to wear band t-shirts, camoflage pants or combats and boots... New Rocks or para boots for example.
The girls will either dress similarly, or can be seen looking dangerous and sexy.
Those who favour Black Metal over other genres of metal will usually wear more black, a vast array of metal spikes, and sometimes Corpsepaint.
Either way long hair is must, for headbanging etc.
The most important aspect to being a metaller however, is a genuine love for the music, a passion which starts deep in the soul, makes your skin tingle, and has you screaming "HELL YEAH!!" If you don't get this feeling early on, the you're not ever likely to get it.
Some of the genres they will listen too include; Death, Black, Power, Classic, Doom, NWOBHM, Progressive, Thrash, Speed, Industrial, Melodic Death, Folk.
Being a metaller also often includes a lifestyle of drinking, sex, smoking, going to gigs, getting down and dirty in the Pit, and just generally immersing ones self in dedication to music, wether it be listening to or playing it, and all the knowlege which goes with it.
Metallers can spot a poser (or 'New Breed')a mile off. A true metaller is in it for life; its not a choice, its a calling.

1st metaller; do they suffer for coming after the whole melodic death metal zeitgeist?
2nd metaller; to me, its a continuation of what that music is doing, theyre pushing it to new extreme levels.
1st metaller; awesome, now lets go get some fuckin beer.

Metal, Adj.:
1. Music normally played at a loud volume, with fast tempos, extrodinary guitar, solid bass, and a strong drum beat (drumming is normally played with double bass drums). Metalheads normally start out listening to Iron Maiden, Metallica, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, etc. But from the point where one starts listening to "heavy" music, one's insatiable thrist for metal cannot be quenched. So, much like a drug, listeners get adicted, and they look for heavier and faster bands, such as: Death, Venom, Slayer, Sodom, Motorhead, and Pantera. Most don't dare go beyond this group of bands, for fear of geting their fucking heads blown off. But, some do still persue yet heaver bands such as: Napalm Death, Kreator, Pig Destroyer, Cannibal Corpse, and the infamous Mayhem.
Metal, Noun or Verb:
2. Usually replacing "cool", "awesome", or other words such as that, which are "extreme". For instance, "Holy shit dude, that was so fucking metal!"
"metal" can also be a verb, such as, "lets go do somthing metal", which means "lets go do somthing fun or exciting".

"Now thats metal!"
-Sebastian Bach

"Ok, lets go listen to some metal"
When Zakk Wylde was asked to discribe metal, he anwsered with a long swig of his pale ale, a respectfull huff, and a, "Metal.... is... metal"
