I don’t think its hyperpop and friends fault for the shitty gatekeeping, its literally just cliquey chuds, and other kinds of white men, that typically come to mind when one thinks of a very narrow minded metal fan who can only listen to “approved” music, none of this pop, jazz, disco, “Black people music.”
as one of very few people who so happen to be both a straightjacket communist and a veteran metal fan, as in grotesque veteran, timeghoul veteran, im talking worship, molested and poison here - let me tell ya that you have an opportunity to learn exactly where this friction comes from and what it's aimed at. if you wanna chalk it up to "cliquey chuds and ((black people music))" that's your loss to bear.
we're talking commie subs being subjected to a constant influx of berniebros. you have to answer questions about stalin 24/7 and try to overlook the pleas for electoral reform. you just want to meme about castro but there's always some dickwad mentioning firing squads. a disgusting effigy of genocide denialist hyperautoritarian cultists that live 50 years in the past, the default perception before hearing their arguments. look, i grew tired of defering seattle-based atmospheric black metal burzum clones to study snorre ruch's riffing after the 10th time. our concerts, zines, platforms and networks is constantly compromized by commercial pressures and polluting trends. though we all differ greatly, there is an astonoshing constant in the metal milieu in that we study the genre chronologically, cultivate an eye for riffing, and stand ardently by individualist preferences, against collectivist influence over taste and commercial or ignorant actors. its gatekeeping as fuck. is that bad? something tells me that aesthetic prejudices would leave that question answered differently than compared to jazz. metal and jazz are mirrored in many regards, and insularity is for both a product of canon standards and bad experiences with intrusions.
