I grew into them fampai

>>34622208
I didn't unfortunately. I'm 23 now, well at least I'm more self aware.

I still secretly like a little bit of metal music but I acknowledge that it's immature but I stopped listening to metal around 17-18 as I was coming into adulthood.
>>
Never. I'm 28 and my music taste is actually getting edgier every day.
>>
I like opeth too. His hair is nice and long.
>>
Never, as I grew older I actually started liking black metal.

I do listen to a fuckton of jazz now though.
>>
around 18 or 19 i think
>>
maybe I actually like the music because it's good and not just because it's edgy
>>
>>34622208
I didn't outgrow the edge - I just moved up the ranks of edginess. Deathcore at 18 to industrial at 20. I have ascended.
>>
>>34622208
I never liked edgy bands, I just dressed edgy. Poser for life.

>he thinks metal is edgy!
>he has no concept of theatrics
>he thinks the music reflects the people who make and listen to it

Objectively, the most edgy music is abject garbage like indie bands whining about their girlfriends and how their parents divorce made them a socially inept numale

>>34623098
This.
I still love a whole lot of metal, but now I listen to other stuff like swing, ska and blues as well.
>>
I didn't. My taste has gotten edgier with Emo/punk music.

Who gives a shit? If you like to listen to it, you like to listen to it, who says it has to be "mature"(whatever that means) anyway.
>>
I like metal and hardcore punk but honestly I feel like bahaus is more edgy than psychotic waltz
>>
>>34622208
I didn't, I just got edgier. I went from shit like Slipknot and Disturbed to Dark Tranquility, Dying Fetus, and Insomnium. And somehow back to Slipknot, because their latest album, the Grey Chapter, is somehow better than anything else they've done. All their previous work feels like they were trying to hard to be edgy and psychotic, but this album feels like they've actually slipped into the dark depths of depression and madness brought on by old age, fading popularity, and one of their members dying recently. The lead singer especially, sounds like he's just so angry and hate-filled at the entire world and I love it. If you don't believe me, just listen to the song "AOV" by them.

Liked rap, metal, hard rock, all that edgy shit till about my mid 30s. One day just couldn't stand it anymore. It all sounded so fucking stupid. Started listening to the local classical music station .. Soon that was all I could tolerate. Late 30s now, classical music fan all the way.

hahah, I'm like you, man. My taste was meme-edgy when I was in high school, but now I just listen to whatever the fuck I like, which is much edgier, ie. os industrial, Slam, power noise, dsbm, etc.

People who define themselves based on music taste are scum.

>>34624964
Is there even a proven correlation between "school shooters" and metal? Or is your whole life full of memes?

You tell me:

I still unironically enjoy bands such as All That Remains, Killswitch Engage, Darkest Hour, Atreyu, As I Lay Dying, etc.
>>
>>34625205
>gets asked for proof
>provides the most meme metal artist of all time

You proved my point.
>>
>>34622208

If you base what music you listen to on whether it's "edgy" or not, you probably don't like music all that much, and you're probably still in middle school.

>>34622236
Same. As a teenager, I went through a jazz phase, a dadrock phase, and a folk phase. I only discovered metal in recent years.

>>34622247
I think that the "immature" parts are the tendency towards melodrama and the proclivity of some bands to take themselves to seriously. Or mindless attempts at edginess. However, this isn't really limited to metal.

There's a lot of stuff about metal that I think is a lot more complex, interesting, and "adult". I read somewhere that metalheads had comparative personality types to people who liked opera, but differed in terms of age. Which makes sense when you consider the technical competency for some genres, the theatricality, etc.

>>34622876
>HE THINKS INDUSTRIAL IS EDGY

jk senpai, good on you

>>34623154
Not really. Indie bands (although that's a weak label) try really hard to be anti-edgy, and over-authentic.

>>34624649
This. It's almost as if people who care enough about a genre to research it extensively are not going to have anything in common with the sorts of people who spend five hours in front of a mirror each morning.

Charles Whitman:

Seems like shooters like alt. rock more than anything.

>>34625176
If you don't think music correlates with personality or values, try playing Whitehouse for your grandma.

It's a perfectly fine thing to identify with, especially if it's something you really care about.

I've never understood people's fascination with metal beyond the 10th grade but then again I've been into AiC and Plebvana since the beginning of high school and currently it's what I listen to.

It really makes the mind ponder.

Been listening to technical death metal since I was 8.
Now I'm into black metal and atmospheric black metal.

>tfw you find other metalheads and the "metal" they listen to is memetallica, memestein, memeknot and when you tell them what you listen to they automatically feel inferior and try to justify themselves with phrases like "t-they are actually g-g-good, you know?"

Edgy as in emo/nu-metal/metalcore/deathcore stuff?
In that case never, I went from Trad. Heavy Metal to Thrash and Punk Metal, from there I crawled to Doom, then Stoner Doom and Stoner Rock and now Sludge/Southern Metal.
I just like big riffs, groove and bass heavy sound.
Listening some Negro Blues nowadays as well.

Weedeater is my current favorite band.

Probably 21-22 so pretty late

I wish I had gottenough into real hardcore earlier

29 yaers old
still listening to edgy nihilistic bands

https://youtu.be/WuDuumkL1sI

I grew into them.
I listened to a lot of nu metal and heavy metal crap like that when I wasn't listening to Iron Maiden, Dio, Black Sabbath with my dad.
Then I got into Rammstein which led me to industrial. I listen to plenty of black metal, I've gone to see black metal bands live more than any other.
KMFDM is the shit and the shirts are edgy but I love it. I first listened to them in middle school but it wasn't until HS that I really grew into it. Their 90's albums are top fucking tier. Raymond Watts and all.
