I like their albums. And I like that they elicit such visceral reactions by doing shit like Deafheaven pillow cases or whatever. Seriously, if this stirs something in you, come work for me, because you have too much time on your hands and I have way too much shit to do. I have no idea what true metal means. I meet people who think Pallbearer are hipsters, which is a laughable accusation. I’m pretty sure personally nerding out with me about Solstice and Mournful Congregation (which those guys have done) is one of the least cool things human possible. So, yeah, I’m totally over worrying about all that shit.

Sorry, I’ve never read the Wall Street Journal and I never heard of #metalgate. I’m almost 40. If something has a hashtag in front of it, it’s a signifier of non-relevance to me.

I'm not answering that, Andrew.

I enjoyed the first few season of the series when I had time to watch it. I think a lot of it probably cut TOO close to home for some people in the industry. I have a friend who manages bands and he couldn’t watch the show because every episode literally made him anxious since Dethklok would invariable do something nearly as stupid as something his own bands regularly did.
