Sometimes i find myself during a long drive somewhere, headbanging to a particularly brutal tune or even when Im just standing there pretending like im picking at guitar strings. What do you think are some uniquely "metalhead" habits or odd parts of listening to the music.

I NEVER headbang... It looks silly and hurts one's neck.

I raise my fist in the air and scream to the metal gods naked down the neighborhood street while blaring Painkiller.

Yeah, but that's not unique.

Sometimes I catch myself doing blast beat (air) drumming at the gym. I feel embarrassed when I realize how stupid I must look.

I air guitar incessantly and simply have no clue how to play the guitar making me look like a complete douchebag. I headbang hard whilst driving. I scream along to everything from Painkiller's highest notes to the insanity that is DEP or Travis Ryan from Cattle Decap.

I sometimes air guitar. I mostly just tap my fingers, shake my foot or whisper the lyrics along. I have never sang or screamed them out loud. Guess I am too shy for that. :P

Pulling stupid faces while singing or miming along to something. I usually manage to keep this private.

I always headbang and raise my fist so I can pull an epic face. I don't do this alone haha, I usually rock out in front of any one, save for my parents.

travis is one of the best vocalists from death metal, too bad he'll have to have a new diaphragm by the time hes 50

Sure I do, but that hardly qualifies as headbanging.

Airdrum and nodding, no singing along or headbanging here. I've danced to stuff a few times when drunk, thinking about it.

If I didn't sing or headbang along I don't think I'd even like metal, haha! Before in my mates car they played Anthrax-Madhouse on the radio and I rocked the fuck out. Was sweet!
