Not sure if this board is alive, but is /metal/'s take on this? http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-leicestershire-34919722

I don't need any fucking government protection.

Smells like bullshit. Metalheads can handle themselves just fine. We don't need any "help" from government.

This particular incident seems to be just a modern variant of mods and rockers, and whatever the hell came before that: using their in-group morality to justify beating the living shit out of someone. Metal fans listen to aggressive music, and some are aggressive themselves, but I don't know too many that go around looking for a fucking fight "in the name of Odin metal".

The list of hatecrimes included in the article was pretty fucking gigglesome, though. If they extend it to every single subculture and lifestyle difference across the human experience, eventually they have to wind up back at some kind of universality.

No need for a special category of "hate crimes" or whatever else. Murder is murder.

It's funny how non-metalheads still associate metal with goths. Gothfaggots listen to industrial and other off-shoots of metal. Not to mention, the goth subculture is literally dead and has transformed into emo, which also has nothing to do with metal.

How much longer will this meme continue?

Even more confusing when you consider gothic rock's post-punk origins, which is almost completely disconnected to the scene today.

Goth and Metal subcultures have overlapped and produced some phenomenal bands; Type O Negative, Paradise Lost, Moonspell, Castle (NLD), My Dying Bride, Decoryah, Danzig, even RaHoWa had a few good songs.

Still, I post images distinguishing the two subcultures for confused normies.

(>>5703 here)

the article was p much about "goth rights", as the crime involved a goth.

I agree w/ what you said, this is p weird.

The mall goth sub culture morphed into the scene kid one but the genres have way different roots.


 No.5822

>>5821

You want to elucidate us on that, champ?

>>5822

Are you really one of those sad people that think goth became emo? Do you know anything about those genres? Do you know when they even started?


 No.5834

>>5824

No, and I was asking because there does seem to be a lot of confusion over it.

Well, they share a common root in that they can both be traced back to punk. Goth is older and came out of post-punk(which doesn't really have an exact sound, it's more of a description of the attitude of the genre but you had a lot of bands that had a proto goth sound going) in the late 70's/reel early 80's.

Sometime in the early 80's hardcore punk became a thing and then out of that came post-hardcore which was kind of a similar idea to post-punk in a way. Ian Mackeye ended Minor Threat and formed Embrace who are considered to be one of the first emo bands.

There's probably some details I'm missing here and there.
