Which music genre / scene has the worst fans!?

[Harkat]

^ . Are we talking Original Sin-style cheesy jump up or the po-faced Dieselboy/Ewun/Spor stuff?

EDIT: I guess Playaz means it's original sin stuff...that's hilarious, that music is so corny (in a kinda good way TBH), how does that make you wanna fight anyone?

[Dead Rats]

Deltron 3030 is considered 'progressive hip-hop done right' but it's still just beats and rhymes and B-boy posturing.

Never really saw the fucking appeal, my Autechre/Warp/Well obscure IDM guy was like 'Listen to these, they are worthy of dat Public Enemy/Cypress Hill Hop Hop tag' and, mate, hand on heart, I just didn't get it. Thought mediocrity was present throughout.

get me gen.. alot of death metal fans are very punkish in their attitude which is cool (but yeah, the tech shit is probably what pissed me off most. Started going off it when all the necrophaggot imitators came about), but black metal fans are fucking nerdish to the extreme. I loved windir and burzum and darkthrone (and some other bands that have slipped my mind since; goes to show) but most of those guys were proper goons - thing is they made something original and exciting, unlike the legions of even goonier nerdier fans that just imitated and exaggerated since.

Say this as a complete nerd obviously (still love grind/crust and doomy/stoner stuff, just in small doses and on occasion)


i wish most BM fans would make like goats and die from loneliness.

With all shit, you really just have to find the musicians that 'get it', or those that 'reinterpreted it' interestingly. Most musicians fetishize just one particular part of the music and those dominate any scene.

Gorguts is dope and technical. But that's not what made them dope, they just had to be technical to PLAY those really fucking cool tunes.

It's like that with dubstep too. Producers used wobbles because they were rhythmic and fast and filled the gaps between the spaced out kick and snare. There was a point to them. Some producers heard it and thought 'oh so it's about THE WOBBLES' and completely overexagerated their place in the music and then you get what you have now.

Or breakdowns in metalcore, lo-fi recordings in black metal, 'drops' in trap.

^ yup... shit like that (fucking playaz nights) makes me all the so much more grateful for dubstep

Thing is, I got into Dubstep around 2006 but had to wait years before I could get friends to come with me to a night. Was too shook to go on my own because jump up nights were my only frame of reference and I thought shitty attitudes at raves were standard /
When Dubstep artists started getting bookings at DnB nights I was a very happy bunny!

Harkat - yeah Original Sin type stuff but definitely the harder edge of it..

[HamCrescendo]

yeah but gorguts (obscura being the only album i really knew) was still during that golden era of DM - necrophagist spawned a bunch of shit and proper HEADS got into it because it was new and 'more tech' than what had gone before (BRAINDRILL: just popped into my head haha, what a bunch of shit). just dont like bands/artists being rated on being 'more x,' write a good fucking song first.

Know what you mean though, drudkh did the black metal thing well without sounding like some derivative affectation (could never really get into them though)

[SheepShagga]

I'm guessing there is a UK K-Pop/J-Pop/ scene and that it's full of weirdos.

[HamCrescendo]

knew a girl who would only listen to serge gainsbourg and other parisian shit.


weak (love me some serge, but still)


edit: dressed like a garlic seller too, stankin'

[nousd]

rockabilly fans are so annoying
victims of a fashion worse than mods
reliving a 50s that never existed
and smiling & having fun when they dance
jerks

[SCope13]

yeah the stereotypical black metal fan is pretty shit lol. That being said, it's like my favorite genre of guitar-based music.

[Richard Ross]

I nearly fell asleep at a Jesu show. Was stoned though.

[sigbowls]

country

[titchbit]

country or electro house.

Chill-Donk

[Harkat]

Is there a "trap" fanbase?

[_cheef_]

Is there a "trap" fanbase?

yes, but they are usually lumped in with the "lazer bass" crowd.

[titchbit]

trap fans are essentially identical to electro house fans. unless you mean OT (original trap) m8. I'm talking abotu old school three 6 mob T.I. waka flocka jeezy UGK shit m7. you know, black people music. not that edm trap donk flowstradommus shit.

[leeany]

Death metal fans are aiight, except for the OMG SO TECHNICAL types. And when I was at a death metal festival near me (mainly for Pig Destroyer) all the guys in the crowd were growling at each other in between songs, supreme plebdom. But the black metal ones are so sheepish. There are even JEWISH BLACK METAL FANS THAT ARE HITLER SYMPATHIZERS. That's how sheepish those people are. I am totally serious. That's not even openmindedness, that's just trying to fit in with the black metal crowd.

One of those types once posted on youtube about how the 'the goat is the free individual the sheep is a tame follower'. I know what he was getting at, but I still gave him a sourced response that said that the goat was one of the first animals that humans successfully domesticated because fuck that guy.

Could be that you're not from NL and I'm confusing you with someone, sorry if that's the case

Yeah I'm from NL. But what people say and what they do are pretty different things.

This is the highest selling album in Dutch hiphop history :


''We doen niet aan die rapshows, ik ben toch niet gek ofzo''

Interesting that you say this, since Dutch hiphop has always made a point of staying ''nuchter'' (or down to the ground), don't know if you've heard a lot of it tbh

I'd say there's much worse crowds than the hiphop fans
