a person who listens to the extreme forms of metal ...death metal and black metal normally..and has all the other traits of a metalhead..metal is a religion for him/her and he doesn't give a fuck about what other people think..for example black metal is charaterised by its anti-religion,satanic nature..and extreme metalhead should not be confused with extreme headbanging..but with extreme forms of metal i.e. death and black metal

A metalhead who isn't any of the following:
*A massive gatekeeper (e.g: "Oh, you like .....? Name 5 songs.)

*A huge elitist (e.g: "Core is so cringe, I only listen to blackened death grind doom sludge.")
*Highly opinionated (e.g: Don't listen to ....., they're crap.)
*GG Allin
He was a perfect example of what a true metalhead meant.

Blue Collar Metal heads that are known for rural mischief and listening to (but not limited to) Southern Brand Groove/Sludge/Doom/Death Metal. Can be identified by Pantera and Acid Bath T shirts. Although they might partake in regular "Redneck" past times (Hunting, Fishing, Drinking) they usually only dress passingly as Redneck with a mandatory Band T shirt, bandana, and cheap sunglasses. They don't have to be from the South, but almost always have an affinity for blue collar lifestyles and hard scrabble life.
"Johnny spent all his money from his carpentry job on tickets to the Crowbar concert, he's such a fuckin' Redneck Metalhead"

"That Redneck Metalhead over there has had that truck since Highschool, he drove it to a Slayer concert across the country back in the 90s and it was old then. Only a Redneck would do that, but only a Redneck Metalhead would do it for a concert"
