Full size to read the text.

After spending some time in this musical subculture you get to know a lot of people, and a lot of tastes and inclinations regarding Metal and all of its children. You'd think that there might be a consensus between the followers but I get surprised/amused by how a fan of certain metal sub-genre can despise another sub-genre as much as he/she'd despise Justin Bieber.

Which amuses me.

Also this is just for fun, and of course, not everyone is like this, and yeah I know I didn't feature Atmospheric, Dark, Fusion, Industrial, Melodic, Sludge, Stoner, etc, etc, etc here. The graphic is already crowded enough as it is ^_^

Even as someone who has only sparing interest in metal in all its forms, this is brilliant. You can find the same sort of spread of bizarrely picky tastes in any genre or subgenre of music- arguments over classical symphonies can erupt, given the right circumstances.

Thanks for a laugh and dose of humility.

The girl in the lower right corner is probably meant to represent people who prefer Maiden, Judas Priest, Rush, etc.

Well, there's a dude on the lower right who has the words "Traditional Heavy Metal fan" above him, so I'd guess that would be him.

The girl on the lower left says "Pop fan" above it.

Just pointing that out.

Why is "nu metal" on this list...It's not New nor Metal, it feels a lot like emo pop to me

If you get a Nu Metal act like Korn or Slipknot confused with the likes of Fall Out Boy, I dunno how to help you.

Had a good smirk at that. Though obviously some things on it are... less than correct, to say the least. Rule of Funny, I guess. Hah.
