    To be fair, a lot of metalcore is garbage. Maybe that's what uptight suit guy was listening to?

    Love this meme.

    It really steps on the toes of the metal elitists who think 'only metal is real music'.

    There is nothing as subjective as music. Every song has someone who likes it, because otherwise that song wouldn't exist.

    I would venture to say that there are definitely objective aspects of music too, like pitch accuracy. I feel like pitch correction and Auto-tune may have some merit, but in most cases cheapen music, especially when applied to classics.

    Also, metal is garbage.

    I don't disagree, but in this case they are actually the exact same thing. "Hair metal" was a derogatory term someone came up with to describe glam metal bands of the late 80s who they felt were more obsessed with their extravagant hairstyles than with actually making music.

    They are literally two different terms for the same genre.

    Some fans who either didn't get the joke or just didn't care I guess eventually started using the term endearingly

    Listen to what you want, but do you really need to label and classify everything?
