The absolute purest form of Heavy Metal music.
For relatively new bands who have taken inspiration from The Metal Gods.
The Proper Metal sound is personified by screaming guitars with face melting solos, thunderous drums and pounding basslines.
Proper Metal singing styles can vary, but they usually share a powerful and energetic quality. This could be anything from Ozzy Osbourne's signature growl to Rob Halford's soaring high notes. Proper metal lyrics often deal with dark or serious subjects, like war, rebellion, and the occult. They can also be fantastical or explore mythology and history.
To be classified as Proper Metal the dress code is critical and comprises the following:
Leather (black or white)
Other proper metal band T shirts
Studs & bullet belts
Bare chests are encouraged
Long hair (when possible)
A single member sporting a strong moustache is not uncommon.
Denim (if worn) must be torn or aged
*Bright blue spandex is also perfectly acceptable.
*dryrobes and anything frilly pink in colour is absolutely not acceptable.
Proper Metal equipment is mainly electric:
Flying V guitars or similar
Firebird basses or similar
Way too many amps
Absolutely MASSIVE drum kit
* A mic stand that can be thrown about easily
* under no circumstances should the mic stand be so big that you can either mount it or hide behind it. That is NOT proper Metal!

That is not proper metal and I don’t like it.
The opposite to proper metal is the sophisticated “clever Metal” and the two should not be confused.

Get the Nu Metalmug. Metal Gear (Japanese: メタルギア, Hepburn: Metaru Gia) are the mecha in the Metal Gear series.12 In the series, a Metal Gear is a bipedal nuclear weapons-equipped tank. The Metal Gears are typically autonomous nuclear launch platforms which the player must destroy to save the world and complete the game. Often, confronting the latest Metal Gear model is one of the final challenges of each game, These things have been introduced in Metal Gear Solid, these things are pretty self explanatory.
To put it simply its just a Big Mech Armed with Guns and Nuclear powered Rockets, Even nukes in some cases.
They are commonly shown with a Huge High Frequency blade to battle other Metal gears.

Get the metal harvestermug. ok braces are the back ring like thing on your molars and brackets are on your front teath. if you don't brush then the gums start moving down and covering your braces and then the orthodontist has to cut it after numbing it but you still can feel it so better brush. you cant have hard, sticky stuff or it will pull out your braces and you will have to get them glued back. if a bracket gets loose they replace it with a brace instead. they hurt for a week after you first get them and after you get them tightened. it hurts to chew or rip things off till the end of your 6 or 7 days.
(angel) person who got braces: hey just got my metal braces and brackets. they are starting to hurt
friend: how long they have to stay
angel: 4 years so about either year we get out or after highschool.
friend: that SUCKS
angel: I know right. cant wait for my retainer
