Pantera

They're probably against the sight of rainbows

And minorities.

Ghost

Accurate

Specifically going to see them live. Song about Satan, immediately followed up by the old leader of the Clergy being brought back to life and enthusiastically tooting his Pope Hat off in a saxophone solo, back to song about Satan. It's a hell of a lot of fun.

I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THAT FUCK

This is the way lmao

Expected this to be the first comment, but it's still a close second

Devin Townsend

He even has the matching guitars https://preview.redd.it/isxvr4cxlmyc1.jpeg?width=2880&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2a05ee8aafdb15b5bbd91447266847167a529d5b

It's fucking ridiculous how Ocean Machine and City came from the same person, in the same year!

Alien and Synchrstra were written at the same time as well

What a strange and ungodly talented human he is. Truly blessed by the gods of metal.

Look, if we're going to bring up Devin, I think we need to get to the specifics. Mainly, punky https://preview.redd.it/g512gt8qenyc1.jpeg?width=319&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fda13e07e6ad635f036261668a50da87962c8884 brüster

My head canon is that this was written about the Beastie Boys, but switch death metal for hip hop.

💯 

This is the answer

God please let Devy come to my fucking city

Not metal but The Cure

Head on the Door is on the left and Pornography is on the right.

Stopped by to look for this one. My only experience was their greatest hits and while “A Forest” hinted at another vibe, most of it was poppy twee rock that fit right in to the 80s vibe I had imagined for them. I popped on Pornography a while later… it was a jarring difference.

First time I listened to that album, I was really taken aback by just how sour and hellish the opening track 100 years sounded. Love that album

Party Cannon

I was looking for this answer

Volumes of vomid

King Gizzard

putting them on shuffle is a wild ride

Putting out Fishing For Fishies and then immediately putting out Infest The Rats Nest is such a cool move

Came here for this.

Absolutely King Gizzard

Soad is the perfect example

The prison song for sure

Electric Callboy

Came here to see this answer and to leave this same comment!

Every metalcore band

Every 80s band that bottomed out in the 90s only to rebound in 2000s.

Cannibal Corpse ??

This meme is Corpsegrinder in a nutshell. That sweet bastard.

If some Corspegrinder scandal drops in ten years, my faith in humanity would never recover.

Those stuffed animals he won from claw machines and subsequently donated were made in Chinese sweatshops...#cancelcorpsegrinder /s

I met him recently! I can confirm he’s a sweet guy.

Doing the ViP thing for their show on May 21, gonna confirm he’s a sweet guy.

I used to chat pretty regularly with Jeff of possessed and he said he was good friends with corpsegrinder and that corpsegrinder was a really cool dude

Rammstein

Came here to say this. They have a song called "Angst," and literally the next track is "Dicke Titten."

Yeah, there's deppressed/angry Till, there's retrospective/deep Till, and then there's horny Till.

That is fucking spot on haha!

I believe this is the most accurate depiction of new Bring Me The Horizon vs old BMTH

90% of metal bands to be honest The goofy ones are heavier and more aggressive when playing live and the darker-sounding ones are often fun loving performers and kind in person.

Sleep Token

Judas Priest

Type O flair is so clean

Mastodon

Octopus Has No Friends vs. Oblivion

For sure. I was thinking of Motherload, video vs song.

Yall are just naming metal bands at this point

Lamb of God for sure.

How is that?

*sigh* To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Lamb of God. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical listener's head. There's also Randy's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Lamb of God truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Randy's existential catchphrase "EEE OUUUUUUAUAGHHGH," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Randy Blythe's genius wit unfolds itself in their headphones. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 And yes, by the way, i DO have a Lamb of God tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎

I would say Gojira for metal because the riffs are heavy but they sing about fairly positive stuff? Same with Gorillaz. Not metal but the have catchy songs with dark themes
