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.

I love megadeth and pantera. It sucks that those artists have sich disgusting contemptible views. I went to a lamb of god/megadeth concert a couple years back and had to sit through mustaines bullshit right wing ramblings but i made sure to loudly yell out “free palestine” during a breif moment of silence.
Mustaine is full on conservative, but he hasn't pulled any of this white power bullshit has he?
As someone who occasionally goes to lunch at panera it def fits the demographic.
as someone who plays terraria I think the plantera music is quite good
the boss fight is one of my favorites too
Only if you have the vine hook. Fuckers a dick.
Other news outlets have elected to couch coverage of the incident in conciliatory language, talking about what Anselmo “appears to” have said, and “appears to” have done, as if, perhaps, we cannot be trusted to verify the evidence presented before our eyes and ears. Let’s be clear: on the evening of January 22 one of the most respected and iconic vocalists in our world stood onstage in Los Angeles and delivered a Nazi salute and shouted a white supremacist slogan. Those are the cold, hard facts, let’s not pretend otherwise.
Huge respect to this writer. If only major news outlets had the courage to speak the truth like them.
Was about to send this to our editor but this article was written in 2016.
Did they stop being Nazis after 2016?
I like their beef and arugula sandwich.
Broccoli Cheddar breadbowl for me.
Rob flynns courageous take. Machine head is still standing against this shit to this day. Rob calls out this new american naziism weekly.
Some of those comments are so fucking stupid and depressing
Fuck Phil.
Dimebag was no nazi and neither is Vinny.
Damn dude, sorry.
Well shit. In some sense, not surprised. But also sucks.
Dimebag at least was a racist piece of shit
Maybe behind closed doors.
Huh... I had no idea. Time to update my playlists and remove this moron.
Cowboys From Hell is one of my favorite albums... Bummer.
I just saw them live for the first time in my life, and it was an excellent concert. Now it feels tainted, I didn't know.
I get why people are bringing this up again due to the situation in the US. But this article is from 2016.
This is the 2nd post I've seen about this on the front page of all. Obviously the dude is a piece of shit, but is there a reason this is being brought up now? Other than Trump's inner circle going full Nazi I mean?
Because all this god forsaken platform talks about is nazi bullshit. They're obsessed with it more than actual nazis (and I mean the real ones. Not the "people I don't like are nazis" kind).
Exactly, this is what I wanted to have my post reflect. As far as I know, there's no other reason. Regardless fuck Trump and his inner circle, and Pantera (although RIP in peace, Dime bag).
Huh. Pantera has always felt "off" to me. Now I know why
It wasn't Pantera themselves that made me suspicious at first, but their most fervent fans always seemed far too invested in the Confederate flag to make me feel comfortable
Wasn’t all the rebel flags they had?
Probably. Never been a huge fan of their music so I have not watched any concert or anything, aside from like 10+ years ago when I was trying to better understand my musical tastes, and I remember the vibes felt off.
welp time to remove some songs from my playlist
Article was written in 2016.
well, better late than sorry
Oh it’s ok then.
No, not all, cuz fuck that dude. You getting angry at it now means you're missing the things happening now that you should be angry about.
I always loved how Robb Flynn called him out on it
