I've never understood how metalheads are different from normal people. I mean dressing and acting according to a style is what a lot of people do. Also I think metal listeners are just as divided between shy/outspoken/accepting/elitist/whatever type personalities as any other group.
I'm with this.

Good ed Ben, i agree with the sense of power that metal can give you, no other music can do this, but like noodles said metalheads are no different than other people, or perhaps we are different but everybody else is also different, the only thing that bind us is the love for a music style that most people consider primitive, tasteless or just pure noise.
About metalheads being smarter, that i dont agree, ive met a lot of idiots in this subculture.
And this.
I'm different to most people I know, and that includes metalheads.
I pretty much agree with these statements and especially Radagasts final statement. Even in my group of friends I definelty stand out as "different." The things I say, my attitudes towards things, and my general views keep me seperated from most others. Metal is a big part of the reasonings behind this, but those attitudes were there befroe I knew metal. So, therefore, metal doesnt define me; who I am brought me to metal. And I most certainly dont follow any trends, in metal or outside of metal.
