    Hell, they’ll give you this look even when you say you like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and of all bands - Motorhead.

    People have particular subgenres of taste, but who the hell decided at one point that we should evaluate what is metal and what isn’t?

    I have given bands like Cannibal Corpse, Death and sprinkles of other Death/Black metal bands honest tries. To me it’s all just noise and the vocalist guarantees me that I will not like them because it’s just belching and barking lyrics.

    Because Ghost is not going crazy with solos, screeching/belching/barking lyrics out, isn’t recording their material in some hollowed out and echoed building somewhere. They also aren’t catering to lyrics about how it’d be a wonderful day to be devouring some flesh and fucking the eye sockets of a skull. But you wouldn’t know that with the vocalist doing said belching/barking/screeching lyrics until you read what the song is about.

    So basically, Ghost is not liked because it’s not catering to metal edgelords.

    The downvotes prove me right. :)
