This was great, but I’d like to point out that there are normal legit female metal fans. I don’t fall into the TWO categories listed for women, I’m more the Brutal Death Metaler type…just sayin.

I would be considered hardcore i think! Image free no tats or make up of any kind! Im tired of the emo/gothic look! it started out cool! Now its just sad and pathetic! Trying really hard to look like an idiot! No more wool beanies in 100 degree weather! You are no longer rebelling! Just confusing people whether you are male or female! Anyways I love anything from devil wears prada to the acacia strain! I have been on a lamb of god kick! Poor mr Blythe, I feel for the guy! My Hardcore metal cd collection is unrivaled! I have caliban and kill whitney dead and all shall perish… the list goes on and on! I know more metal bands than most people know songs. Anyone out there like me? Who think the music is much more important than bands needing to have the undead on all there t shirts! And guys that are just asking for a head skif because they look like fags. And I dont mean gay, i mean fags!

I apologize for my post earlier today! It was a bad morning and I didnt mean to sound insensitive to homosexuals! I realize alot of people care about image and just because i dont understand doesnt mean I should hate!

I’m a Prog Metal, NWOBHM, Traditional Metal fan. Long hair, jeans, T Shirt, Sandals. The quintessential Hippie Metal Fan. Morpheus Rising, Magnum, Metallica, Not Quite a Devil, Floyd, Zeppelin, Rush, Stones, etc, etc. I enjoy listening to very much British Indie Prog Metal Bands mainly because they have it happening there.

I would say that I’m a mixture of several of these Deathcore one, with Hardcore which you forgot and also Black metal minus the long hair. Although im not an arrogant fucktard like most deathcore band members I’ve met.

Need to add ‘Indie Metaller’ these days. These guys are all over the map genrewise but were mostly listening to Spoon and the New Pornographers a couple years ago. Fav metal bands were cemented when Baroness and Wolves in the Throne Room appeared in Pitchfork. Also likes Sunn, Alcest, Litergy, Ulcerate. Thinks Paracletus is the first Deathspell Omega album. In six months he will be really into Relapse and Southern Lord record labels. After a year, Profound Lore. Chums up the ‘Black Metaller’ by incessantly repeating that Cradle of Filth sucks.

Power Metaller/Brutal Death Metaller mash up.
I enjoy a bit of Bloodbath and Sodom just as much as Sonata Arctica and Angra.

AGREED! Not all metalhead girls are either stuck up hot girls or attention seeking arch enemy butt kissers

Yeah, I agree with the previous comment. There should be more women metal heads! I’m not a whore like the two listed up here. I’m pretty straight-edge but everyone always thinks I’m high or something. I love classic rock and hair metal and I wear shittons of acid washed 80′s style jeans. I feel like there are a lot more like me out there and it would be great to see some more of these!

HAD ENOUGH OF THIS CLASSIFICATION CRAP. There’s METAL fans (long hair, tatts, denim and leather) and POP/OTHER. End of.

I am a mix of everything short of the girl metalers. I own the bullet belt for thrashers, shortish hair of the pantera guy without the rattyness, I have a Mjolnir pendent of the Folk Metalers, I am a huge fantasy fan like Black Metalers and Power Metalers, I LOVE Deathcore but honestly don’t think it’s the most brutal thing, and I wear cargo shorts like the BRUTAL death metaler. Wtf man lol

This made me laugh and I love most of them, and as far as the girl ones go, I think they’re true, but only because there are plenty of girls who fit into all of the other categories as well. It’s true that there are those types of girls, but I don’t see it as, if you’re a girl, you’re either one of the two or nothing at all.

Definitely a mix of Folk Viking and Power with a dash of Black Metaller (I don’t worship Satan however)

Defiantly a power metal head, dragonforce, dragon land, stratovarius, any of that stuff
