OMG I hate when people ask me what kind of music I listen to. It's just. oh god. I'll say "metal" and people will be like "Metallica? Iron Maiden? Judas Priest? Black Sabbath? Guns n Roses? Pantera? System of a Down?" and they'll just name off a ton of bands I NEVER listen to.
And I feel dumb. ;~; It's like, they've listed off tons of mainstream (or perhaps, not even-) metal and I'm just like "NO" to every one.
I assume they think I'm not serious when I say I listen to metal.
I don't tell people what I listen to, lol. I mean, I CAN'T EVEN PRONOUNCE MY FAVOURITE BAND'S NAME.
Drudkh. HOW DO YOU SAY THAT?? They're a Ukrainian band but use a Sanskrit word. GUH.
And it's like "ooooooooh i also listen to Electric Wizard and Jex Thoth and Nile and Bathory and Lifelover and Pantheist and Sunn O))) and Windir and... no??"
bahhhh MY LIFE IS JUST SOOOO HARD as you can see
And then I made the mistake of saying "doom metal" to my co-worker when talking about metal and he gave me a weird look... 6_9 but no really, it exists! It's uh. Yeah.
I'm not making shit up and lying when I say metal. ;~; I love it, I do. I spent way too many years infatuated with the genre. Like, how I love Takarazuka now. It was just like that. But instead of swooning over actresses, I was swooning over the music of different bands!
I guess I spent about... 7 years really into it? @_@ Oh god that seems like a huge number now that I look back on it. In the end I have decided that doom and black metal are my favourite subgenres. And then things get really interesting with sub-sub genres (ie brutal death metal, funeral doom metal, national socialistic black metal lol yea it exists and sadly it sounds pretty good).
ugh... maybe I should go to bed now lol. I HAVE TWO DAYS OFF!! In a row! I love when that happens, because I can actually relax. :D Lol except not really because I have to go Christmas shopping. I did manage to buy one present so far for Asako-san, but it's mostly a joke present that I don't expect her to use... but I hope it will make her smile. ^_^ But I still have to find something else she'll find useful. ugh it's difficult
i should be asleep,
fml,
metal
