    BFWTK: My Chemical Romance @ metal festivals

    They're coming out again for a festival, with a heap of other metal bands. They don't really fit into this category, and the fans don't really overlap at all.

    Most concert footage I've seen of them has involved people throwing stuff at them.

    So...why do they keep doing it?

    In life you only get one lap, might as well make it a good one.

    Because they are awesomely Emo and Emo = hardcore and metal= hardcore so by the process of stupidity Emo=metal.

    What they dont realise is there is a difference between how metal fans like stuff heavy and bands who just whinge in a heavy way.

    We dont like whingers. ( unless we are whinging about how no one cares about metal anymore)

    My mistake, I thought that emo = bawling angsty tears into a mic because you spilled your mascara.

    I must be thinking of something else.

    HA for a 2nd there I thought you said brawling and I laughed at the thought of those noodle armed skinny kids brawling with anyone.

    But you are right I was talking more of what their opinions of themselves was, not the actual reality of what they are.

    I actually have a spot spot for them, until I see what they look like.

    They do good theatre, the melodrama is fun (if you don't take it seriously). I just can't see them fitting in with metal fans, who I believe take things far too seriously.

    In life you only get one lap, might as well make it a good one.

    Metal bands dont take it seriously they just dont like retards claiming they are awesome musicians.

    They also sully the name of metal by bringing it down to a level of commercialism and fashion.


    Sort of like if trendy Vespa riders started talking to you about riding a 600 or thou.

    It's interesting isn't it? Cliched black clothing, a dark fascination with death/decay/satan etc etc and unintelligible cookie monster voices are ok, yet some kids singing about their feelings aren't.

    Looking as an outsider, it's a classic case of one minority trashing another while pleading to be taken seriously

    Yes but as an outsider you are also pigeon holing the genre into a few traits.

    The biggest metal bands have almost always sung about Politics and societies issues rather than just death.

    Alot of those death horror cookie monster bands are just as false as the Emo kids and I personally see them more as a commercial band than serious artists.

    Emo bands at a Metal concert are meerly to get pathetic whiney wrist slitting fucktards to attend said concerts so the bogans have life like rag dolls to throw about and wreck during the duller moments of the day.

    I support this movement wholey and completley.
    I love two strokes. Because they annoy the shit out of people.

    once the real metal starts the emos always end up crushed at the front or bashed in the pit. when emos are around everyone becomes a bully

    Soundwave Shogun.

    My nextqustion to the Fridgeman is why have you singled out My chemical Romance?

    Having a look at the line up I would say at least half the bands are ultra hard gay, are you talking about other festivals around the world?

    Because I can tell you soundwave is not a Metal festival, it may think it is but its isnt.

    This year it definately isn't.

    For 2010 we are particularly proud to have enticed one of rock’s all time legendary artists, FAITH NO MORE ; and one of today’s most talented and intriguing bands, MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE to top the bill. Joining them will be indie legends and festival kings JANES ADDICTION, the kings of dark punk AFI and one of the hottest bands in the world, PARAMORE.
    only 1 out of the 5 "headlining" acts gets me mildly excited and they aren't even metal.

    Soundwave has Big gay outed.

    Yep faith are the only band here worth more than duck shit on your shoes, and they arent really metal.

    I am listening to every single band in the line up from the soundwave homepage and im Up to Mesuggah and them and Trivium are the only metal bands on the bill so far.

    Anvil is in there so that is also cool, I will continue with the rest and see how good they are.

    Trivium fucking slay it but I saw them earlier in the year so I wont be paying to see them at a shitty festival.


    Lamb of god, Devil driver and shadows fall are laying Metros and that is a metal festival worth going to.
