for fun

Cuz metal is fun

to filter the plebs who hate fun

these p much
Venom's one of the most ridiculous and fun bands ever

nobody actually listens to venom

I listen to Venom
cuz they're fun

It used to be that nobody admitted to listening to Venom because they weren't trve kvlt darkness like Celtic Frost, Mayhem, Bathory, etc.

But now everybody recognizes that those bands were just as silly and ridiculous
welcome to the 21st century

what a gay opinion. like loudwire youtube comment section tier gay. sit on your father's dildo and kill yourself.

nah, kill yourself buddy

all four of those bands are awesome by the way, stop being such a retarded, inbred little bitch

Venom is inherently ridiculous, even in the 80s people basically considered them a cartoon band. That was kind of the point of Venom, being over the top.

Like you were there to witness it, faggot

You're at a 10 and I need you at a 2

I HAVE BEEN TO HELL AND BACK! KISSED SATANIC QUEEN

LAY DOWN YOUR SOUL TO THE GODS ROCK N ROLL. METAL TEN FOLD THROUGH THE DEADLY BLACK HOLE

COUNTEEEEEEEEEEES BATHOOOOOORRRYYY

Fun to sing with friends

Metal is supposed to be stupid and fun. You're a retard for taking it seriously.

You're a faggot for assuming everyone is just a permaironic zoomer like you.

That's what I like about music honestly. It could be the most intricate thing to play on your guitar or whatever but the actual song is about something stupid. Like how so many jazz tracks are titled food

COME HEAR THE MOON IS CALLING
THE WITCHING HOUR DRAWS NEAR
COME HEAR THE BELL IS TOLLING
MORTALS RUN IN FEAR
PREPARE THE ALTAR NOW AND HEAR THE VIRGIN'S CRY
HOLD FAST THE SACRIFICE FOR NOW IT'S TIME TO DIE

>zoomer
Dude when I listen to metal, I listen almost exclusively to 80s thrash, death, and black metal. I don't really listen to any metal albums released after '95. You can't listen to an album like Scream Bloody Gore and tell me they were being serious. There's a song about Evil Dead on this album. The whole thing is a love letter to schlocky horror films. Metal is supposed to be fun.

>listening to death
opinion discarded

what do you listen to

not death

pleb status: filtered

Not that guy but there's no more pleb tier metal band than Death. Chuckfags are a plague.

Here's Quorthon of Bathory, being goofy as hell. Do you think he was being 100% serious when he wrote lyrics like
>DEMAND ALL HEAVEN'S VIRGINS
>BEND BEFORE OUR HORNY LORD

The modus operandi of heavy metal is the creation of great riffs; metal can approach whatever sort of song topic it wants but if the riffs aren't good, you can basically throw everything else away. This is why metal often isn't very serious. Only occasionally will real heavy metal approach a serious song topic, sometimes leading to masterpieces such as pic related

yeah sure whatever but death is good

Because listening to "serious" music all the time is exhausting.

Opinion discarded

Who the fuck listens to music for fun? What does that even mean?

Who gives a fuck moron, you do know recorded interviews exist right?

Everyone from Lemmy to Dani Filth has said that Venom was considered a goof off.

Venom are completely ridiculous, but you have to respect them. Welcome To Hell may be the first time all of the key elements of extreme metal came together. Yeah, Black Sabbath sang about Satan in the early 70s, Motorhead were really fast and dirty, Lemmy sang with a raspy voice, and Judas Priest had been wearing black leather and spikes for years, but Venom combined all of those things. The black metal fashion/image, the Satanic subject matter, the poor production, the speed, and the growled vocals. Venom took existing musical elements and combined them to create extreme metal.
