Memes. For metal music.
Don't be an ass and try to keep the gatekeeping and whatnot to a minimum. Memes from all sorts of metal genres and bands are welcome here.

Depends on. Some places of the metal community outdo gaming toxicity-wise, especially pre-2010s.
In my experience, the gatekeeping and unhealthy drinking habits are the most toxic aspects of it.
I'm jealous of you, but maybe a lot of it comes from me being older, and some of those toxic elders either got reformed, or left the scene entirely.
