The Problem with Perth Metal
It is a clique, a hobby, and not even a subculture.
it is a hobby, fuckhead. we go to gigs to have something called FUN. a perception which you clearly do not grasp if you have the time to write such a big fucking whinge, about something that clearly you shouldnt be involved in.
"The scene is infected with leftists, normals, hypocrites, posers, scenesters, etc. - this is too apparent on the Western Front forums."
i guess youre one of them too, posting and lurking around for 9 whole years. Oh and speaking of hypocrites, when is your next gig? Never, so really that was a fucking bad choice of words there cockbreath.
It's even more unsettling to know that the moderaters permit and encourage this stupidity, and that supposed musicians engage in it. But then, this makes perfect sense when considering the poverty of idea and spirit which defines "Perth Metal".
well, why not start your own fucking metal forum and just ban anyone who talks off topic about metal??
Our bands reek - they are uninspired and bland, unspirited, weak - they don't even deserve cover band status.
sorry?? whats your band called again? i must have missed it, in that long rant of yours.
I would not call them Metal bands (Metal having something of a warrior spirit which is yet to be identified in the music of Perth bands)
Ahahaha, warrior spirit. fuck off, sounds like youre trying to be a viking or something. Even if they did have ?warrior spirit? im sure you?d have a whinge about how they?re trying too hard.
I don't need to mention Neverborn, Voyager, Enforce, etc. as I think their value is evident, and they are under no illusions as to what they do.
crazy fucking Voyager fans..
No doubt you feel important when you wear your Metal clothes in public, you feel as if you are a part of something that "normal" people will never understand, ignorant to the fact that nobody outside of your club cares about your "screaming crap".
Probably not, but that?s a good thing, we don?t want fuckheads like you coming into our scene trying to ruin it for us, trying to put us down when we all enjoy and have fun with what we do.
Most people would view it with the same disdain and embarrassment as when you show them your comic book collection - does Metal means as much to you as that? Does it sit beside your Star Wars figurines?
Star Trek actually, Jez sits his next to Star Wars.
Another confronting fact is that you all seem to welcome "-core" music - at any rate, you accept it. If you don't know what's wrong with Dyscord and Fool The World, you have no idea of what Metal is.
The only thing I agree with. Too bad you forgot the biggest whores of core.
Metal is not throwing a tantrum
Gtfo then? Because that?s what youre doing.
it is commercial, derivative, novelty trash created by people who think metal is "crazy, angry music".
Lol angry. Uhhh? we are probably one the most peaceful ?sub cultures? ive seen. The only ?anger? that goes around is when we get fucking noobs first into the scene and this is what they believe metal is (yes, I was referring to myself back in the day). We all get absolutely shit-faced?and still no one starts a fight. Where as if you go to Amps, fuck there is some metro cunts fighting every weekend?and all we do is stand around and laugh.
and natural in men (it is a masculine expression; female participants are no exception - Jo Bench from Bolt Thrower, Lori Bravo from Nuclear Death, etc. are expressing masculine qualities).
And shit music. Funny how nuclear death's early stuff was somewhat grindCORE. I don?t know if im mistaking but further down youre having a whinge about anything core. Which I hate anything core, but youre whinging about it.
We look elsewhere for inspiration; this shows in almost everything we produce - everything in Australian music wants to be Britpop, or Eurotrash electro, or indie, funk, blues, jazz, folk, or some supposedly "unique" and "clever" combination of the above - something else other than what can be inspired by being here; in general an adoption and bastardisation of things that occurred naturally elsewhere, rather than a refining and development of those foreign influences.
Every band has inspiration from another band? some more than others, but still, idiot, theyre all inspired by something. How can they not sound ?foreign?? should they be singing with an ?aussie? accent while cooking a bbq and wearing thongs on stage???
The rest of you want to be Norwegian or Polish (Naetu, Ancient Dawn), or Swedish (Pathogen) or American (Grotesque).
I see what you did there, you just threw each band into foreign country categories depending on how their name sounds. Clever!! Lol I don?t know how they SOUND like certain countries.
Metal is about leading.
And not having massive whinges like this one.
this idiot has annoyed be, just purely because of the disgusting amounts of hypocrisy he has produced... bagging everyone else out, and not being in a band himself.
