On the one hand, there’s a lot of great metal, it’s obviously not all garbage.
On the other hand, I love winding up those people who get all bent out of shape about how one or more of those genes “isn’t real metal” so I kinda still appreciate the post lol.
Might be indie rock. I’ll never forget going to 4chan /mu/ and seeing a guy argue that music should be unpleasant and hard to listen to if you really care about it, because then your opinion on the “sonic experience” isn’t being compromised by pleasure, citing the godawful singer of Neutral Milk Hotel as enriching the band more than a good singer would have. Called Death Grips “entry-level” music for tweens before you’re ready to graduate to experimental non-melodic field recordings of harsh noise.
What I’ve noticed is anyone who doesn’t listen to extreme music calls it all death metal. It can be straight up hardcore punk but to them it’s “death metal”.
Torn on this one.

Are there any genres where listeners are bigger snobs than metal?
Classical. Maybe.
Jazz probably

Never seen people throw hands over if somethibg is jazz or not.
You’re going to the wrong jazz clubs then
I mean crust punk definitely isn’t metal…
