Metal in general


Many people misunderstand metal and consider it as depressing. But to my point of view, metal is a way to express or take out your inner feelings. If people took the time to listen to it, they will see this type of music has a special way of showing it. As for any group of music, the clothing is very important to metal bands and their fans. My preference is wearing a black hoody, blue jeans, driving gloves ( that dont fully cover the fingers) and a belt with a certain desing on it. There are also hair styles for metal, like buzz cuts, some bands like Five Finger Death Punch have someone who completely shaves his head to the point where theres only a thin layer of hair left or a patch of hair in the middle and shave the rest. Five Finger Death Punch mainly speaks about revenge,
loss, fights and sorrow in most of their songs that i've heard so far. The song "Hard to See" is a song of fighting and revenge.

This song i one of thousand ways that us metal fans like to express ourselve because in a way, some of the sories behind the songs touch our lives inderectly.

  1. I don't think it's depressing. It's just Really loud sometimes. But I liked the video you chose, it wasn't too loud and it looked pretty awesome :)
