The refuge of thrash and death-thrash fanboys from the 80's; typically hates 90's metal which they label "groove" metal/"post thrash" Their no. 1 object of hate is Pantera or Metallica or any commercially successful band from the 80's. A typical encyclopedia metallum imbecile abides by the following: anything that is fast, chaotic or technical or un-listenable is considered metal while anything that has any semblance of melody, variety or is not fast enough is considered not metal enough. Frankly, I don't understand why speed should be such a goddamn issue, I want feeling and excitement in my music, if you want speed, watch the Grand Prix for fuck's sake
a bunch of asswipes who cannot fathom why <insert name of obscure 80's band here> never made it big while Sepultura, Metallica are now fucking millionaires with mansions and sports cars

typical Encyclopedia Metallum zombie: Pantera's Far Beyond Driven is total shit, I give it 0%
me: You're wrong, FBD is such a godly album
typical Encyclopedia Metallum zombie: It has nothing but groove, it's not a real thrash album!
me: who cares? it's good music
typical Encyclopedia Metallum zombie: I tell you it sucks, it ain't worth shit.
me: can you name any songs from FBD aside from the obvious mtv shit (5 minutes alone, i'm broken) to illustrate your point that it's shit?
typical Encyclopedia Metallum zombie: Let me see...uh huh, uh huh, I guess I forgot the songs in there (embarrassed laugh)
me: you make me sick, how could you say it sucks when you haven't listened to the album in the first place you little shit?
typical Encyclopedia Metallum zombie: I guess it's because it's the "in" thing to hate on pantera...

Get the encyclopedia metallum mug.A heavy metal forum that has perhaps the largest collection of pricks and/or douchebags. Dominated by pseudo intellectuals and nerds that have nothing better to do but congregate with other morons about their favorite br00tal music. They give a very bad image to metalheads.
Everyone there seems to have the exact same ideology on numerous subjects, such as the existence of aliens "out there". Go try trolling them, you'll see how pathetic and stupid they really are.

Troll: Hey, your favorite bands blow.
Basement monkey (any admin on encyclopaedia metallum, really): rage rage rage rage rage
Troll: Ever stopped to think why your band is so "under ground"? Maybe it's because so few people like it since it's a shitty band?
Army of basement monkeys (all other forum members): rage rage rage

Get the encyclopaedia metallum mug.An internet database of all things metal that makes teenagers run to the urban dictionary and post their angst induced feelings about the Metal Archives because their favorite ha4dc0re!@! but non-metal band was rejected.
Side Note: By doing this I have fallen in to the bullshit "my opinion matters" trap too.

Conversation at The Metal-Archives (Encyclopaedia Metallum)
Brv0tal Kid: Why is lunkin park rejected from da acrhivez, they are fucken metal!!
MA Mod: Uh.. no they are not, sorry.
Brv0tal Kid: Fuck youa are just a bunch of elitist pricksz, they are hardcore and fukn awesome. It doesn't matter if they are metal or not.
MA Mod: If it doesn't matter if they are metal or not, then why do you care so much about them being rejected.
MA Mod: and when submitting a band to the Archives, it kind of defeats the whole purpose of the website if we accept any band. Otherwise we would call is the Music Archives and add any band to our database.
