One who listens to music for it's talent. The artists may be everyone from Bach and Mozart, to Arch Enemy and Iron Maiden. They believe that the so called "Class system" and "social status" are just labels that the insecure people in society have created to seperate themselves and make them feel superior. If a metal-head weres a shirt and is asked why, they will say "Cus I like it" NOT "Cus I'm a metal-head" True Metal heads will not say such things. Generally very accepting over different ways of life with a strong sense of moral and honor.
Dude 1: That guy isn't a metal-head, I checked his playlist, he listens to Bach and mozart
Dude 2: Whatever he's listening to Arch Enemy right now and yesterday was jamming to Iron Maiden, he's a complete metal-head
Dude 1: You can't listen to classical music and heavy metal and say you're a metal head!
Metal-Head: Actually you can, where do you think music started, with the classics. *Sighs* Oh the ignorance.....

Get the Metal Head mug.A Metal Head is a person who listens to Death, Thrash, Speed, Black, Shred, and maybe Melodic Metal. Most wont listen to Alt or Nu-Metal and will probably shun it. There is no definate set of clothing attire but most can be seen wearing some type of jeans ranging from blue to black, also most likely have on a band shirt with either long hair or a shaved head, if they have facial hair it will most likely be a med-big beard or a goatee. A common mistake is that people tend to call them Satanic because of the music they listen to, this is not true. Yes, a metal head may be Satanic but this is simply a coincidence. They often fight, mainly for one of four reasons:
1: They have been having a bad day and you get in their way, say something wrong, etc.
2: They are in a good/content mood and you do something to provoke/anger them
3: They have had anger bottled up for a while and can no longer stand it, thus lashing out at anybody.
and finally the fourth reason
4: Simply because they like to fight. That being said its generally not the best idea to pick a fight with a metal head because whether they look it or not they are most likely a good fighter. They have a tight-knit group of friends, whom they are loyal to and share a good connection with. They are educated and civil, contrary to popular belief.

Get the Metal Head mug.A shot which contains the same amount of alcohol as that of 3 normal shots. Usually only metal heads can handle this large a dosage of drink.
Gibb: "Man I'm totally wasted!"
Quinn: "Yea you would be, you've had 5 metal head shots!!"
Mike: "Let's dance!!!! 'The dreEEEAAAAMMM IS TRUUUUUEE!!!' "

Get the metal head shots mug.Someone who lives and dies for their music. They usually have long hair,wear band shirts, leather,denim and spikes. It does not matter which genre of metal they listen to, (whether it's black,death,thrash,or glam) as long they like it loud, and love getting wasted.
The metal heads stood in the parking lot outside of the Slayer concert hours before the show , drinking beer, headbanging, and blaring all of their albums.

Get the Metal head mug.Some one who listens to metal. Period. Whether it be thrash, death, grind, or even black metal, thats all there is to it. Listening to it. Metal isn't some cult. Metal isn't about wearing band t-shirts or doc martens or wearing black constantly. Metal is a type of music that lets you vent your frustration, not the way you dress.
Mallcore kid: Look at my wicked slipknot t-shirt. I'm total kvlt black metal because I wear black and listen to ICP.

Get the metal head mug.A metalhead is simply someone who likes REAL metal for there favorite music and can tell real metal and shit metal apart. None of that bullshit you said about metalheads is true u fuck bag! you probably just listened to shitty korn or faggy slipknot. You assume that all metal is fake ass nu metal and assume that the music people listen to defines that person. Im 13 and i get A's and B's and i shower daily. Were not goths either. fucking goths are far away from metalheads. Goths listen to slipknot, while i like good metal like Metallica, Anthrax, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, etc. Cigarettes are for people who want cancer. We dont think that the world is out to get us, that's for retarded emos. thinking you're cool is for fucking preps , we don't think were cool, dumbass.i have a pretty fucking good backpack, and im not poor, besides, poor people don't spend money at Hot Topic due to the prices. Ya we wear band tees but we're not worthless and the girls arent sluts. anyone can be fucking stupid, but ur the fucking stupidest by stereotyping fucking good music and the people who listen to it
East Bay Ray, i recommend killing yourself, because you need to die for making any metal-head kids who read your definitions feel bad. We all want to kill you for beinga sterotypical douchebag.

Get the metal-head kids mug.to start the true metal head actually does not label him/her self. he wears band shirts to show support for the bands he likes not to be labeled. normaly listens to gore, goth, black, speed, or thrash metal(nu & alt are not metal). extremely dislikes emo kids! they go to shows/concerts on a regular basis. they might seem serious but within them its totaly the opposite. they usualy play an instrument and are in a band. normaly wears blue, black or gray dickies or jeans w/ a band shirt & maybe doc martins.
