@TriednTrue @EyeDentist thank you guys this is motivating. This is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and I already have been for a while unofficially. I guess I needed to take a leap of faith, and have enough money to do so
The essence of thrash is not having a pretty voice, though Joey Belladonna (Anthrax) could really rip some classic songs up. Check out their cover of Carry on Wayward Son.
But I do agree, his voice is probably the worst among the big 4. Still miles better than mine so no flame on him there. haha He was most squarely between singing and screaming with that low-laryngeal growl and I think that rubs a lot of people the wrong way.
I was volun-told to sing in the first band I was ever in and we had to cover Symphony of Destruction in our first ever concert. Imagine a very high-voiced 13-year-old trying to growl along to Dave…
I do believe this is an oxymoron, one can’t be into metal and be a nerd. If you have nerd tendencies but are into metal, that negates all nerdiness and now you’re just awesome.
Carry on.
I thought only nerds are into metal nowadays.
Must be the language barrier …
If one has nerdy tendencies but is into metal, they are not a nerd. How can a nerd be into metal, if being into metal negates the nerdiness?
I thought you were smart…
You’ve never heard of Math Metal, then lol. NERDS.
I feel like i can say the same for Ozzy Osbourne. Almost always a good tune, but hate his voice
Metal nerds. Pleated khakis, good grades, Cannibal Corpse t-shirt. I’ve seen it.
Same. I only listen to the Dio era Sabbath.
I think there’s something lost in translation … look, if it’s metal, then you can’t be a nerd. Simple as that. I don’t give a shit if the metal songs are about the goddamn Shire being abducted by Captain Picard and his Starship Troopers, you ain’t a nerd. it’s metal. How is this concept difficult for you?
I don’t understand how metal isn’t nerdy. That’s all. Why don’t you explain?
Are you an objectivist?
Post modernist.
Yep, Metal Nerd Chick. Slayer t-shirt, work boots, 3.76 GPA rest of the class wear business casual cloths to class
No homo.
Of course you can be both. I play black metal with my best friend, who’s our Call of Cthulhu “keeper”
I play DnD and metal is too nerdy for me.
