Well, lately I've been thinking about what does you make you a metalhead.
Listening to the music? going to concerts? dressing metal clothes? some attitude?

I don't know if I can consider myself a metalhead because I do listen to a lot of bands of different genres: Gothic, Folk, Power, Symphonic, Industrial, Atmospheric, Doom, Black, Progressive and Gothenburg. But, I don't dress metal clothes, I listen to many other kinds of music, I've never been in a metal concert... So, just being a metal expert makes you a metalhead?
What do you think?

When you listen to metal with such passion, going to concerts, and coming back black and blue with an aching neck.

And maybe when you start beating up Emo kids?

I agree with you. Allthough, my histiry says that I listen to many kinds of music, but I prefer metal in all these. I dont dress metal or goth, except some t-shirts. Although being in concerts is maybe my favourite thing! I have had long hair till September 2006 but now my hair is short. In conclusion I dont think that being a rebel or adopting ideas like satanism (for example) makes you metalhead. And I think that anyone claiming to be a satanist listens to metal just to become a part of another team because he is not accepted by so called "mainstream" social teams. And these are the guys that have no personality for me and listen to metal, which they make a simple phase.

well fior one thing you are a metalhead when you put on Megadeth or Devildriver when your trying to sleep.

Secondly I believe that when you have a strong passion for the music then your a metalhead. If the music is more than music to you,. Metal music to me is like having an addiction, some people light up or stick themselves but all I have to do is put on some of my tunes and I instantly feel better. I cannot go one day without this music or else I literally go crazy.

You know you're a metalhead when you/if you:

Get suspended from school for wearing a bullet belt.

Get fired from your job for calling out to see Megadeth.

Cried when Chuck Schuldiner died.

Would rather shoot yourself in the face than listen to Eric Johnson.

Oh man, you are totally right! I can't count how much times I fell asleep and woke up to see that Ive listened like 5 albums in a row. Older Gorgoroth or Dark Fortress' Seance are my favorite to sleep to.

You know you're a Metalhead when you replace the ussual hmyns and praise songs at church with Stryper, Extol and Living Sacrifice.

But in all honesty, I don't know if there is a full meaning to the term 'Metalhead'.

You are a metalhead, not for going to shows, or wearing specific clothes (actually you can or cannot), you become a real metalhead, when you can feel the metal in your heart, if you don't have feelings, maybe the most accurate description is to say that "the music possessed you". You let yourself get driven by the music, you want to people to be aware that you like metal, and you feel proud of it,
When talking about metal, you don't think about what you say, you just only say it.
You are a metalhead when you get used to the extreme things and forget how shocky or offensive are you tastes to other people, and you try to get more people into metal, that are some of the things that make feel like a metalhead

You know you are metalhead when you enjoy seeing facial expressions on peoples faces when they ask you what your favorite bands/albums are.

Piece of Shit - 'O, its so nice to meet you, Ohmagawd, I listen to R'n'B and metal like linkin park, what do you listen to? LOL enoughs about me!'

Me - 'Metal'

Piece of Shit - 'Me too! like As I lay dying and Staind? Yeah, my band opened up for As I lay Dying, so that means Im fucking Hardkore!'

Me - 'No, I mainly into Death Metal, some Black, and some thrash, my favorite albums at the moment is Tsjuder - Demonic Possession and Unleashed's Where No Life Dwells'

Piece of Shit - ':O what are those satanic bands? Norweigan Death Metal like Emperor and Mayhem??'

People like this crack me up.

At least they've heard of Emperor and Mayhem.

I've stopped explaining I don't listen to Slipknot and Korn, I don't care if they all think I listen to that stuff.

True, I just think its incredibly funny because some people are clueless. Though I have nothing against them personally since it isn't their fault. Hah, I got a pretty harsh reaction when I told someone I listen to Luciferion though like 'That is so bad! I don't agree with their satanic name! dont ever play them around me!' I had that coming since the dude is religious nut

Seems like you were in a gore mood a couple of days ago

You're evil, pure evil This is more evidence to contest the point that you're a nice person

You know you're a metalhead when you smile after hearing a metal song in a different location to where you usually might hear it, this is true for me and probably true for others on here too

EDIT: What songs/bands make you feel like doing that, in particular?

EDIT: I disagree, you're a metalhead if you feel like headbanging to the metal. If metal makes you feel like methodically eviscerating someone, then you need help (knowing you don't like Goregrind and only like a little amount of Brutal DM as it is, otherwise I wouldn't be saying this)... that's concerning...
