The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time

They are ******* idiots. Metal isn't mainstream(real metal never has been mainstream). But the fans are some of the most dedicated, loyal, hardcore people around. Every metalhead would tune in to a metal show on MTV if it featured music videos, interviews, and live performances with real metal bands.(Dragonforce, Mastadon, Dethklok, Kataklysm, Lamb of God, Dying Fetus, Mnemic, Burn the Priest, Pyschostick, Between the Buried, Opeth, Chimaira, Slipknot, Strapping Young Lad, to name a few)
older metallica
pantera
slayer
megadeth
anthrax
ozzy/sabbath
sepultura
those are just a few that come to mind, right off the top of my head. all of those were considered "mainstream" in the late 80's and into the 90's, in metal's heyday, but they all still kicked (or still do kick) some major ***.
i know what you mean, though, by the bands you mentioned.....those are the more "hardcore" metal bands, and still considered underground more than mainstream....which i like also.....
just making the point that "mainstream" doesn't mean it's not "real metal"....
**edt gwar i think is the band i'm thinking of, with the ridiculous custumes lol
