    I just feel like their songs are specifically targeted to edgy 13 year olds. “wrong side of heaven and righteous side of hell” I mean, c’mon.

      The maturity of a 13 years old, but it’s listened by angry genXers and older millenials.

      I don’t get this point of view, maybe I should because it sounds logical. But again sometimes I want to listen to harpsichords in E by Bach. And sometimes I want to listen to hallowed be thy name from iron maiden, sometimes I want to listen to a nightmare to remember by dream theater, and sometimes I want to listen to wrong side of heaven by ffdp.

      It’s like the same logic that I love eatimg healthy home made delicious filipino food every day of the week, by my excellent cook of a wife. And yet occasionally I get a craving for a menu at burger King with a monster energy drink.

      It is as if there is redeemable factors in both

        Tbf, the metal bands you mentioned are all on the operatic side of metal, which is a nice subgenre. Many metal fans would say that there are definitive bands which categorize one subgen vs another. I’ve never heard of Five Finger Death Punch, and thought the name was actually Five Flavored Fruit Punch. Maybe an opportunity for Weird Al here 😁

          Weird al ruins songs for me, I just forget the original lyrics, and now weird als lyrics is the only thing I can think of when I hear the song

            Haha fair, but it’s almost an honor to get a Weird Al parody, I think
