When I was growing up metal was SERIOUS BUSINESS and smiling or laughing was like heresy... I really love how the internet has made it ok to smile & have a laugh with the genre cause on a primal level, metal is a really fun, uplifting and cathartic genre to play & enjoy

Something I've noticed over the last decade or so in regards to metal bands, is how now so many of them actually seem to be having fun as they play. There has definitely been a tonal shift.

It’s a welcome change. I grew up with Metal. Much seriousness. Much angst. The new bands are having fun, and made it okay to have fun with this ridiculous genre.pic.twitter.com/Hl4hK6bgHC

Exactly. Once we all admitted our favorite music was somewhat preposterous and that is totally ok... it's become a lot more fun

I guess metal kind of had to grow up the same way we all did. I still enjoy plenty of dark and heavy stuff, but for my own sanity's sake I have to mix it up. Also, learning to like music outside of metal did wonders for my appreciation of it.

Absolutely. I kinda drift in & out of being obsessed with it, sometimes I just wanna hear some lovely pop music and other times nothing does it for me but crushing riffs

Definitely. Letting your mood pick the music, as opposed to forcing a mood to fit the music is so much healthier!
