Memes. For metal music.

Don't be an ass and try to keep the gatekeeping and whatnot to a minimum. Memes from all sorts of metal genres and bands are welcome here.

That's why I stopped listening to metal. Too hot in the summer.

Just listen to ska in the summer and metal the rest of the year

Funk, it's basically thrash but with a wah pedal. And more purple shirts. And black people 👍

I listen to funk in September, metal in October and November, Christmas songs in December, and Irish music in March.

I also listen to Christmas songs in December.

And I listen to Irish music too.

I like the punk end of ska; or maybe it's the ska end of punk....

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That's called third-wave ska, also called ska punk.

It wasn't the end of ska because arguably there's been a fourth wave since then

[–] N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Yes, I'm a huge fan of the third wave. In my opinion, the song Sound System by Operation Ivy is the perfect blend. Is it punk? Yes! Is it ska? Also yes!

So long and thanks for all the shoes…

And then you can listen to NoComply year round.

Just paint your metal white and your problem will be solved.
