@@shspurs1342 How are they not? Ride the Lightning? Master of Puppets? So they're jazz? Just cuz they're heavier shit out there doesn't mean that Metallica isn't metal
You know Finn not liking Metallica, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest doesn't even surprise me anymore. I just expect takes that shatter my soul and insult my bloodline 😂🤣
We need a legit metal version of Finn (someone just as funny and not too serious). I'd still watch em both but Finn definitely isn't someone to watch if you wanna hear conversations about actual metal.
It kinda weird the way he calls them bad or “ not great “ to be nice 😂 not because of the opinion itself , but because he says it like it’s a 100% fact and laughs if you like them 😂 but thinks Katie Perry’s better 😂 I look like a salty metallica fan I gotta stop 😭 it’s kind of how I feel about REAL punk and classic hardcore but it’s something he loves and is a huge part of his identity . So it just shows the way we’re all different . It’s pretty cool honestly . Something each of us love so much can be looked at in the completely opposite lite by the other person. Can’t believe I just typed this on a finn video but shows how much I love my music 😂
The problem with us metal fans is the giant chip on our shoulders because our favourite bands don't get the mainstream recognitionition we think they deserve. But then when they do, we crap on the normies who likes that one song... Or we shit on the band when they do get mainstream recognition for selling out! We're the worst kind of fanbases in the world.
i really prefer metal stay out of the mainstream because thats where the cheapening happens. i dont want to go to concerts to listen to pre recorded tracks, i dont want everything to be autotuned to the point where its harder to understand than haarp or gorgoroth (horns to bands that dont publish their lyrics). i like old school country but modern country sounds like crap, it went from the very human kind of stuff like what a bunch of moonshiners would play around a still while its bubbling out the booze, in the woods with no electricity, to a very urban poppy sound. not only has it suffered the same cheapening of the mainstream genres but it has become so ideologically monotonous. thank lucifer we have hank iii singing about white trash, drug abuse, and bad women (sorry hank iv fans, i cant get into it). you dont see classical music using pitch correction for a reason.
Mic the snare is going through a really difficult time right now so he’s taking a short break but I’m sure he’ll appreciate this video when he sees it eventually. I’m what you’d call a normie Finn, I love your channels so much but I still haven’t got into metal…yet 😂 one day. I gravitate towards the indie rock canon but I agree with you that indie fans at concerts are the absolute WORST. Went to a strokes photography event recently and got eyed up and down by hipster folks as if to say, “you’re not cool enough to be here”. Okay then corduroy pants.
Yeah, although indie crowds definitely vary a lot. Bands like Animal Collective can draw some absolutely unbearable people but the people that I've seen at The National concerts have been pretty nice
Such a sick and unexpected crossover. You, Mic The Snare, Todd In The Shadows, Brad Taste In Music, Adam Neely, and SongPsych are some of the best music youtubers in the game!
finn: i dont like sabbath, maiden, megadeth. i started to listen pantera and machine head, so they seeemed to me too light. finn: linkin parκ? wow, great band!
"I have never owned a Metallica album in my life"...seconds later..."I also purchased Master of Puppets when I was twenty" Really tough to keep Finn's Wikipedia page updated with his own lore
@@JohnBiddleMusic personally I don't consider them metal I consider a little something I called slash your wrist kill your mum music it's OK if you like them that's fine I just personally am not a fan of them
"The only reason why you think brutal technical death metal is monotonous is because you haven't heard technical brutal death metal" I couldn't stop fucking laughing at this bit and had to rewind it.
Coming from a hardcore/punk and grunge background at an early age, I've also always had a hard time with pre-Pantera/Sepultura metal. Metallica & Megadeth have grown on me over the years, but when I started with Cowboys from Hell, Arise, and 90's west coast hardcore, it was tough to go backwards.
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA As a young kid, I was terrified by the Maiden/King Diamond posters on my neighbor's wall, but when I finally heard them I was shocked at how corny and un-scary they actually sounded.
I think death metal was the first time the dark album cover actually matched the music. You'd look at a Iron Maiden Killers or Number of the Beast album cover and think it's gonna be heavy af. Then you listen and you're like " wut....."
Context. For it's time it was real heavy. And if you distort the guitars and drop the tuning the stuff on Killers in particular is pretty heavy. Now you really want contrast? Molly Hatchet. Album cover is a viking going to pillage and kill and the music is literally a more bland Lynyrd Skynyrd. Same with Meatloaf. Motorcycle flying out of hell with bats and fire and its just Rocky Horror
"I'm a metal fan" "I listened to Iron Maiden like 20 years ago but I hate them" "I've never listened to Black Sabbath but I hate them" "I've listened to a few Metallica songs but I hate them" bro like actually listen to the songs before you form your opinion
Grew up on nothing but hardcore hip hop my entire life but lately I've been trying different types of metal and really getting into it especially once I found the heavier stuff.
Hey Finn! I can't wait for your video where you explain the difference between Slamming Brutal Technical Death Metal, Brutal Slamming Technical Death Metal, Brutal Technical Slamming Death Metal, Technical Brutal Slamming Death Metal, Technical Slamming Brutal Death Metal and Slamming Technical Brutal Nu Metal.
Metal is a real music scene around the world. Classic bands, new bands, diferent Styles, METAL FESTIVALS. This is not a music fad like grunge. Even You don't like it.
Finn is going to open all major 2023 rock festivals, so the organizers know it will draw a full (angry) crowd from the start. For try-outs, Finn will be the support act of random black metal and weebly weebly bands this winter!
Vulgar Display of Power is the album that I would use to gateway someone into metal. It’s accessible and heavy. Almost perfect. After they are warmed up, it’s time for Slayer and SOD.
I found a book called "Louder than Hell" that drove me down the heavy metal road. About 666 pages (I kid you not) of oral history from the late 1960's to the mid 2010's. For a guy who grew up on '60's pop to '80's pop to 2000's college and indie rock, I loved the book. It gave a view of the other side of the music I didn't grow up with, but came to respect most of the artists who created it. It did reaffirm my love for Anthrax and Motorhead. It also reaffirmed my hatred for most late '80's metal/ hair metal.
@@ryanjacobson2508 yup most hair bands were pop rock but were called metal because it was a marketing buzz word. The exceptions to this were Twisted Sister, WASP, some RATT, and some Motley Crue. Most were more influenced by Aerosmith than they were Sabbath
I think I'm like ~4 years older than Finn, so I was way into Metallica, Maiden, Sabbath, etc before I heard stuff like Sepultura or Bolt Thrower. So I get it if you heard heavier stuff first when you were getting into music and couldn't go back, BUT just out of curiouity/historical significance, you really should check out alot of this older foundational stuff with an open mind. The record about the mummies is actually (surprisingly?) pretty sick.
I agree. If being heavy is your only factor in if a song good or not then you are just limiting yourself. Maiden are excellent musicians and Bruce has one of the greatest voices of all time.
To be fair, if my experience with metal came from these albums, I wouldn't give a fuck about metal either. The only one of these artists I listen to is Iron Maiden, and that's just kind of a carry over from when I was a kid, I don't actually choose to listen to them very often. That's the great thing about metal. It's such a vast genre that I can sit over in my corner and listen to beedly weedlies and breakdowns and blast beats. 😂
I too, have not personally owned any sabbath records. I respect em and all, but I really love the reaction I get from the metal guys who say "SABBATH IS GOD AND EVERY METAL BAND IS A SABBATH CLONE" when I tell them I don't really care for the Sabbath
"Lydia MacIntyre" For me, I started off with 2002-2007 Avril Lavigne which then got me into Green Day, Linkin Park, Evanescence, blink-182, Papa Roach, Three Days Grace, SOAD, Sum 41 etc which then got me into BFMV and A7X which led me to BMTH who got me into Metalcore and Post Hardcore.
Im a core guy, mostly, and yet I have huge amounts of respect and appreciation for Iron Maiden. They have consistently worked out quiet good albums, with great live performances, mostly down to earth, nice boomer-rocker attitude... Obviously the nostalgia glasses are pink. I very much doubt I would listen to Iron Maiden and get excited with my first "metal exposure" being stuff like Shadow of Intent, and the sumerian records core in general, wich I adore (specially the 2005/2015 era). Haha. BUT they are quiet good nonetheless. A product of another era, for sure, but being "antiboomer musical energy" myself, I really do defend Iron Maiden as a solid band, being really influencial, and most importantly, staying mostly consistent in terms of quality, while doing some experimentation over the years. I like em.
I grew up on a pecan orchard in Mississippi with 75+ trees to harvest every season, & I can tell you sir that your preferred pronunciation of pecan is 100% CORRECT! I've had numerous debates over the years, especially with Northerners, but it is most definitely pronounced correctly as PEE-CAHN (like James Caan), not Pee-can (like something you'd void your bladder into on a long car trip lol).
Whenever I make my crappy songs on my laptop I always remember that there are black metal bands that have millions of views and they sound like they were recorded with a hot pocket.
Honestly I think you can be interested in something heavier and move on to something less heavier. I recently discovered bands from Amputated and Guttural Slug which I really enjoyed and I am currently immersing myself in the discography of Black Sabbath (I only knew Paranoid and Iron Man until now). I just think it depend on what you like in general: heavy, ''soft'' or both. For example The Great Southern Trendkill is my favorite Pantera album because you have both of this type of intensity (Floods & Suicide Note part 1 and then Suicide Note part 2, War Nerve, eponym song...)
10:54 as someone that knew Riley personally (RIP), I show my bias as singing praises of Power Trip and the Nightmare Logic album. It's a great mix of metal that had a lot of appeal across subgenres of metal. I can kinda agree it's a predictable pick for good metal to get into.
My best friend in middle school turned me on to Metal in the early 90s. It was a refreshing change of pace from the Hair Metal stuff in the same way that Grunge was. But some of the Heavy Metal hasn't aged that well unlike Classic Rock.
I didnt get into metal till i was 18 and getting into maiden was tough. Took a couple tries, as they sounded bit bland, but more i listened to, the more i liked and they put on some of the best live performances.
The pandemic did a lot for metal. I have the feeling that a lot of people were so bored that they tried something new. Just look at all the hip hop and vocal coach reactors that started to listen even to deathcore and found the musicality in it.
I'm 35. My dad, who is right on the boomer)genX line raised me on Metallica and other heavy bands from that era, so I always had an appreciation for them. But when I started to develop my own music taste I couldn't help but think they sounded pretty corny whenever I went back to them. I can still listen to that older stuff, but I'd rather listen to a 2000s era metal band cover them.
FINALLY, someone else who doesn't worship Maiden and everything they have ever done. And for the same exact reason too - my intro to metal was Beneath the Remains, which I picked up in a bargain bin at a used CD store. So by the time I went back to check out Maiden, it was so tame
I listen to lots of different kinds of music, but my heart belongs to metal. Always has, and probably always will. My brother pretty much only listens to underground hip hop, which I have a really hard time listening to for more than a couple songs. So, I suppose, if I can have such a hard time with underground hip hop, I can understand someone having the same issue with metal.
There is nothing good natured about this dude. He is as mean as they come. He would push any band under the truck to make views, plays , money at any cost. He likes all the scene assholes , to him , if you create clout and visibility , you are awesome. That's why Fronz to him is a great person while being shitfuck turdbag nobody. This dude has 0 interest in Punk , or Metal or anything. He just regurgitates things because it is his job, and he is connected in the music industry, that's how he earns money.
@@DeadEndFolliesTube I watched him praise Avril Lavigne, MGK , all myspace scene, trap shit of these days , pop and literally everything that makes no sense. We don't need a civil war , we need uncivil war. Find out what shows he will attend and push his shit with a baseball bat. "well you could just not watch his channel"/ yeah and people could have ignored hitler at the time but they didn't so yeah.
Great Sabbath songs: The Wizard, Hole In The Sky (Pantera covered it), Never Say Die, The Writ, Symptom Of The Universe, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Sabbra Cadabra, A Hard Road, anything really off Master Of Reality or Vol 4
I’ve been called a poser because I prefer Sabbath and Metallica to newer metal because I’m not doing deep dives into new music, so seems like you’re a poser if you do or don’t
I just wanna say, despite the way Mic the Snare may present from the vid titles you mentioned (and he definitely does), he’s just soooo much more than that! Oh, how I love Mic the Snare ❤ His comprehensive ‘songs of the 2000s’ breakdown is pure, unequivocal gold 😊
In a lot of places in Europe you can get “American-style” pizza which consists of red sauce, cheese, canned corn, hotdogs and eggs. It honestly kinda fucking slaps.
I wish someone could have saved me from metal at the young age of 8. Hell…music fandom in general. The music I listened to was my identity pretty much every day of my life until I was like 40. The things I could have accomplished in life if I had just listened to Top 40 radio!
If you're going to listen to a Black Sabbath album, pick one out of the first three. Personally "" Masters of Reality" is my favorite album overall but "Fairies Wear Boots" on "Paranoid" is my favorite Sabbath song. It has swing to it almost.
I went to a 'metal bar' by mistake once, around 2003. The footwear of choice seemed to be Doc Martens. Only had a couple of drinks before leaving, but was aware of the unrelenting staring from my fellow patrons. It was not dissimilar to when I went to China around 2009, or accidentally going to a gay bar around the same time. The bathrooms were definitely the worst I've seen in Europe or North America.
Yoda: "Not listening to Metal you must. Metal listening leads to St. Anger. St. Anger leads to Babymetal. Babymetal leads to Black Metal. The Path to the Dark Side."
Hey Finn, I've been a long time subscriber back when you first started uploading this type of content. I love when you take the piss out of metal heads and a lot of your critiques on the genre - and that's coming from a metalhead. However, it seems with the past few months it seems your views are less critical on aspects and more disdain for the music, genre and the fans all together. Yeah, I get it you're just joking around, some of it even pretty funny. But that only takes you so far. It feels more like these are just your feelings, and that's cool. My question is though, is why do you continue to do this content then? Like you said, your values, worldview, and tastes have changed quite a bit. I almost get the feeling you wouldn't listen to this music at all if it wasn't for your channel. And idc what your like or dislikes about music are, I'm not offended or whatever. It just seems to me you'd be happier doing content you're more passionate about. Anyway, have a good one, man.
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA Hey man, thanks for responding. I appreciate it. A lot of creators don't. I know you're conscious about giving your audience what they want. It's just the past few months its starting to show that this scene isn't what you're about anymore. And I couldn't care less. Im cool with that. I could be wrong, of course, and just be protecting. I guess what I mean is I'd rather you fearlessly be yourself and piss everyone off then give your subs what they want. And mind you, this is coming from a 40 year old metal head. I've been in this scene for over 20 years. Metal is my shit. But I do see it absurdies and the comedic values. Either way, good luck, Finn. I'll still tune in. See ya, man. Mike.
If you're curious about that Deafheaven song Finn said he liked, it's called Dream House. The album it's on, Sunbather, IMO is a very well made album and a good gateway into black metal if anyone is interested.
@@howtodrown I think you meant Dream house, and it's one of my favorite intro tracks on any album. Deafheaven's ability to mix sounds that are really beautiful with sounds that are really ugly is something that I haven't quite heard done by anyone else.
It didn't impress me upon first listening to it, so I put it on the back burner...I've been meaning to give it another chance but haven't gotten around to it. I've been into black metal for well over 15 years and I was hoping for fresh take on a genre that had became stale and boring. I personally couldn't care less about the 'hipster' image...if anything, the corpse paint, tight leather pants and homemade weapons were the things I always cringed at and wish didn't exist.
Funny thing is about black metal is that if you gave something like Transylvanian Hunger better production and heaps of reverb and delay it would sound like a post rock band
15:43 You hit the nail on the head lol. When I was into black metal people would say bands like Dimmu Borgir sound like shit or aren't "real black metal" because their recording equipment is too expensive and the production quality was too high
Dude, gotta love you. I have been a metal fan for almost 3o years, and I have never owned or deliberately listened to any Black Sabbath album or owned a Metallica album. I may have deliberately listened to songs by both bands, and I did borrow a copy of Metallica's latest album when it came out, but that's it. I have tremendous respect for both bands, but my older sister was a huge Metallica's fan, so when i got into metal, i had to find my own path, which meant ignoring Metallica... As for the Sabbath, I have always respected them, but just... never got round to listening to any of their albums... lol
I started listening to extreme metal like Napalm Death in 1988 and I had no problem going back and listening to Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and more classic rock bands like Thin Lizzy. I recently became a fan of Madness, as well. Not even metal adjacent! Listen, regardless of what this clown says, you can go back. Listen and enjoy without any prejudice or peer pressure from windbag content creators.
Same, my mom listened to Slayer, Metallica, Lacrimosa, Cradle of Filth, Paradise Lost, etc before I was born and thats the 1st music I remember ever listening and I grew up believing that Iron Maiden was the most brutal shit ever because of the covers and how people spoke about them, in my mind they were like the sonic equivalent of lets say Napalm Death or Last Days of Humanity, the 1st song I heard from them was I think Wasted Years and it was one of the most disappointing experiences of my life, I was like 11 at that point and I was really into Fear Factory, Slipknot, Sepultura, At the Gates, Immortal, etc, why would anybody want to hear that shit? still to this day it perplexes me how they fill stadiums, Motley Crue had way more edge than Iron Maiden...
It's not about the heaviness but the high energy, dual guitar melodies, lyrics, and imagery. Every Swedish Death Metal band is influenced by them mostly because of the dual guitar melodies, At The Gates included. And they are a very catchy band. Plus Bruce Dickinson has a huge stage presence. He is jumping and running all over the stage and interacting with the crowd. I wouldn’t start with Wasted Years. That's their experimental phase. Try Number of the Beast, Two Minutes To Midnight, Fear of the Dark, Killers, Aces High, Run To The Hills.
@@doublewhat07 i involuntarely listened to their entire catalogue, a gf I had was a huge fan and put their albums all the time, Paul the 1st singer was the superior singer imo he had a punky vibe but you totally missed the point I just don't like them, never will, ofc they have my respect but their music is bland, no edge whatsoever, you missed the point dude
@@gasmaskestore8018 Iron Maiden has an edge. Youre not paying attention to the lyrics. They sing about killing babies in the womb in 2 Minutes To Midnight. Blood flowing on self titled track. Fear of the Dark is scary because it can happen in real life. There are people who have that kind of phobia. Plus walking a long dark road not knowing what's ahead can be uneasy. How about the song Killers which someone stalking you. Plus they sing about history especially about war, which in itself has an edge. Hell alot of their songs are scary because it did happen in real life. If Iron Maiden had vocals like Cannibal Corpse then no one would be thinking that they didn'thave an edge. Slayer sometimes has the same problem. Maiden is scary because they came out during a time before thrash and outside of Priest and Motorhead, there were nothing like them. 1976 is when they began as a band. 1980 first album. They are not bland. They got one of the best bassist in the world and their riffs jam and blow speakers to 11. They don't sound like death metal or thrash metal. Well duh... since that is the issue I'll give a contrast... How about bands who sound scary but dont sing about scary stuff. My example is Mortification and the song "Scrolls of the Megolloth"? It's old school death metal with all the usual blast beats and tremolo riffing. Imagine hearing how scary Mortification is. You listen to them as a kid thinking they are cool but as an adult, you finally read the lyrics, and find out that all they sing on that song is the Bible and how awesome it is to read it!. Yep Christian Death Metal from 1992. Scary stuff just watch the music video. Its awesome. Makes you think you're that the world is ending. If you compare them to Iron Maiden then who is edgier? th-cam.com/video/C3TibfE0boQ/w-d-xo.html
I've never heard a better description of metal. Monotonous fits really well, I don't typically binge metal for very long because it just becomes white noise after a while
When you said it, I realized I had never listened to a Black Sabbath album all the way through myself, either… 😳 thanks for making me feel like I’m a poser, too 😂 I’ll probs listen to the albums one of these days, though… and, in my defense, I have listened to a bunch of Ozzy’s solo albums all the way through, many many times… and one of my very first concerts was an Ozzy show when I was 7 years old, so even if I’m not THE most knowledgeable about Sabbath, my mom quite literally raised me on Ozzy’s solo stuff and I have that going for me 😂 (I did also see Sabbath and solo Ozzy shows as an adult, as well, so there’s that, too) My point is, you can be a genuine fan of that style of music and still not know every single song or album bc there’s just SO much of it and especially if you weren’t alive when it came out and now you’re living in the age of being able to stream a million different artists whenever you want, there’s just too much to delve into to know EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING at this point and we’re all gonna have our gaps that we’re working on filling in, day by day. Rome wasn’t built in a day, man haha
Idk why people shit on St. Anger so much, though… it’s not their best stuff, but it’s CERTAINLY a million times better than Lulu (granted, pretty much anything is, but like it’s still not that bad of an album. There’s a few worthwhile songs on there and even the rest of it is just meh more than actually bad)
Can someone explain the comparison between Gojira and Throwdown for me? I really feel like I must be missing something. I just feel like their sounds are so different, but maybe that's because my main Gojira experience is from L'enfant Sauvage.
@Finn Mckenty Some old school country fans can be gatekeepers, they would get triggered at the mention of any modern country bands, saying stuff like "That's not real country, its fake pop garbage", but with more vulgar language thrown in. Theyre in the minority but ive personally met a few of them. Modern country pop fans can sometimes be toxic too, such as the old town road incident, or if someone in the scene publicly goes against their conservative politics, like that time in the mid 2000's when practically the whole country scene (and some butt rock folks, including the band Saliva) turned on the Dixie Chicks for saying they disliked then-president George Bush during a concert
The best advice as a music fan is to be eclectic. I can be listening to behemoth one minute, lady gaga the next, then Brooks and Dunn and then crazy frog, all in the span of like an hour. Music is more fun when you have diverse taste. I found that out the hard way after years of exclusively listening to metal and rap.
Finn pokes fun at the bro who just wants to listen to some heavy shit that will get him pumped up yet he has been one of them since like 1990 🤭. Stay classy Finn 👌 I hope you hit 1 mil subs you deserve it 🙌💪
If you've never listned to Paranoid, it really is worth it. Not perfect, there's some skips, but generally it is pretty good and worth the respect. Master of Reality is also really good. None of the other albums come close to those two.

Good call!
Did you know the Slipknot does all of his own stunts?
@@JohnBiddleMusic personally I don't consider them metal I consider a little something I called slash your wrist kill your mum music it's OK if you like them that's fine I just personally am not a fan of them
"The only reason why you think brutal technical death metal is monotonous is because you haven't heard technical brutal death metal" I couldn't stop fucking laughing at this bit and had to rewind it.
So funny
I own that shirt!!!!
Coming from a hardcore/punk and grunge background at an early age, I've also always had a hard time with pre-Pantera/Sepultura metal. Metallica & Megadeth have grown on me over the years, but when I started with Cowboys from Hell, Arise, and 90's west coast hardcore, it was tough to go backwards.
Exactly
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA As a young kid, I was terrified by the Maiden/King Diamond posters on my neighbor's wall, but when I finally heard them I was shocked at how corny and un-scary they actually sounded.
Dude, dude....DUDE. Late 70s/early 80s metal is THE BEST metal!
@@MrMikewright1980 "I was shocked at how corny and un-scary AND F**KING AWESOME they actually sounded"
FTFY
@@klauswigsmith I like a lot of it now, but as a teenager who was already into much more brutal music, I was not a fan at all.
I think death metal was the first time the dark album cover actually matched the music. You'd look at a Iron Maiden Killers or Number of the Beast album cover and think it's gonna be heavy af. Then you listen and you're like " wut....."
Hehe yeah, I remember thinking that they forgot to add distortion to the guitars😋
Also avenged sevenfold bat country
Context. For it's time it was real heavy. And if you distort the guitars and drop the tuning the stuff on Killers in particular is pretty heavy. Now you really want contrast? Molly Hatchet. Album cover is a viking going to pillage and kill and the music is literally a more bland Lynyrd Skynyrd. Same with Meatloaf. Motorcycle flying out of hell with bats and fire and its just Rocky Horror
Raining Blood is a perfect example of how songs don't have to sound perfect audibly to not only stand the test of time, but also kick ass.
also the old Darkthrone stuff imo
@@ErebosTalia Panzerfaust and Total Death will always hold a special place in my heart
"I'm a metal fan"
"I listened to Iron Maiden like 20 years ago but I hate them"
"I've never listened to Black Sabbath but I hate them"
"I've listened to a few Metallica songs but I hate them"
bro like actually listen to the songs before you form your opinion
Grew up on nothing but hardcore hip hop my entire life but lately I've been trying different types of metal and really getting into it especially once I found the heavier stuff.
Hey Finn! I can't wait for your video where you explain the difference between Slamming Brutal Technical Death Metal, Brutal Slamming Technical Death Metal, Brutal Technical Slamming Death Metal, Technical Brutal Slamming Death Metal, Technical Slamming Brutal Death Metal and Slamming Technical Brutal Nu Metal.
It's hard to believe anyone could think this was funny by any stretch of the imagination
What about brutal country music?
Add some Butt Rock and Schlager and you'll have everyone's new favourite genre.
Metal is a real music scene around the world. Classic bands, new bands, diferent Styles, METAL FESTIVALS. This is not a music fad like grunge. Even You don't like it.
If there was a music branch of stand-up comedy, i would definitely recommend you do it
☺
Agreed! I found Finn this year and think he’s hilarious.
@Define The Great Line Fan Account [2-1] pelted
Finn is going to open all major 2023 rock festivals, so the organizers know it will draw a full (angry) crowd from the start. For try-outs, Finn will be the support act of random black metal and weebly weebly bands this winter!
@@injusticesystem5685 yes, i heard about that. He is in the process of having a full suit of armor blacksmithed for this reason
respect for all the Spoon lovers and all the Spoon lovers appreciators!
I personally love every next Spoon album that’s following a previous one.
Vulgar Display of Power is the album that I would use to gateway someone into metal. It’s accessible and heavy. Almost perfect. After they are warmed up, it’s time for Slayer and SOD.

I found a book called "Louder than Hell" that drove me down the heavy metal road. About 666 pages (I kid you not) of oral history from the late 1960's to the mid 2010's.
For a guy who grew up on '60's pop to '80's pop to 2000's college and indie rock, I loved the book. It gave a view of the other side of the music I didn't grow up with, but came to respect most of the artists who created it.
It did reaffirm my love for Anthrax and Motorhead. It also reaffirmed my hatred for most late '80's metal/ hair metal.
The hair metal bands who debuted in 1987-1990 were basically pop bands.
@@ryanjacobson2508 yup most hair bands were pop rock but were called metal because it was a marketing buzz word. The exceptions to this were Twisted Sister, WASP, some RATT, and some Motley Crue. Most were more influenced by Aerosmith than they were Sabbath
I think I'm like ~4 years older than Finn, so I was way into Metallica, Maiden, Sabbath, etc before I heard stuff like Sepultura or Bolt Thrower. So I get it if you heard heavier stuff first when you were getting into music and couldn't go back, BUT just out of curiouity/historical significance, you really should check out alot of this older foundational stuff with an open mind. The record about the mummies is actually (surprisingly?) pretty sick.
As a kid I went back to Maiden after listening to Slayer's God Hates Us All. Still love Maiden to this day, it's not heavy but it's fun and catchy.
It's nerdy music for nerdy people, but it doesn't have to be anything else tbh lol
I agree. If being heavy is your only factor in if a song good or not then you are just limiting yourself. Maiden are excellent musicians and Bruce has one of the greatest voices of all time.
To be fair, if my experience with metal came from these albums, I wouldn't give a fuck about metal either. The only one of these artists I listen to is Iron Maiden, and that's just kind of a carry over from when I was a kid, I don't actually choose to listen to them very often. That's the great thing about metal. It's such a vast genre that I can sit over in my corner and listen to beedly weedlies and breakdowns and blast beats. 😂
I too, have not personally owned any sabbath records. I respect em and all, but I really love the reaction I get from the metal guys who say "SABBATH IS GOD AND EVERY METAL BAND IS A SABBATH CLONE" when I tell them I don't really care for the Sabbath
I feel sorry for you that you've never listened to the first 4 Black Sabbath albums.😥
The first 12 are honestly all really quality.
I started with nu metal, pop punk and oldies like sabbath, maiden and metallica, then i got really into hardcore and "extreme" metal in general
"Lydia MacIntyre" For me, I started off with 2002-2007 Avril Lavigne which then got me into Green Day, Linkin Park, Evanescence, blink-182, Papa Roach, Three Days Grace, SOAD, Sum 41 etc which then got me into BFMV and A7X which led me to BMTH who got me into Metalcore and Post Hardcore.
Im a core guy, mostly, and yet I have huge amounts of respect and appreciation for Iron Maiden.
They have consistently worked out quiet good albums, with great live performances, mostly down to earth, nice boomer-rocker attitude...
Obviously the nostalgia glasses are pink.
I very much doubt I would listen to Iron Maiden and get excited with my first "metal exposure" being stuff like Shadow of Intent, and the sumerian records core in general, wich I adore (specially the 2005/2015 era). Haha.
BUT they are quiet good nonetheless. A product of another era, for sure, but being "antiboomer musical energy" myself, I really do defend Iron Maiden as a solid band, being really influencial, and most importantly, staying mostly consistent in terms of quality, while doing some experimentation over the years.
I like em.
*quite
@@matturner6890 quit*
Thanks Finn for mentioning Bury Your Dead. They are amazing.
I think I figured it out.
Finn doesn't like any metal song that: 1 - Has a melody or 2- Has vocals that can be understood by the listener.
Mostly true
Actually, Chaos AD is my favorite Sepultura album. 😊
Mic The Snare is awesome. A crossover I didn't expect but welcome
Same
Yea, was surprised to see Finn react to his vid. Different types of content creators, but enjoy them both when it comes to talking about music.
My way of looking at metal, death metal, ect... is an added flavoring to my original love: HARDCORE.
One of the funniest videos I have seen in a long time. Loved this!
I grew up on a pecan orchard in Mississippi with 75+ trees to harvest every season, & I can tell you sir that your preferred pronunciation of pecan is 100% CORRECT! I've had numerous debates over the years, especially with Northerners, but it is most definitely pronounced correctly as PEE-CAHN (like James Caan), not Pee-can (like something you'd void your bladder into on a long car trip lol).
Watching Finn reviewing Mic The Snare's metal video
directly after watching said video is like the greatest TH-cam meme ever. :)
Whenever I make my crappy songs on my laptop I always remember that there are black metal bands that have millions of views and they sound like they were recorded with a hot pocket.
Honestly I think you can be interested in something heavier and move on to something less heavier.
I recently discovered bands from Amputated and Guttural Slug which I really enjoyed and I am currently immersing myself in the discography of Black Sabbath (I only knew Paranoid and Iron Man until now). I just think it depend on what you like in general: heavy, ''soft'' or both.
For example The Great Southern Trendkill is my favorite Pantera album because you have both of this type of intensity (Floods & Suicide Note part 1 and then Suicide Note part 2, War Nerve, eponym song...)
10:54 as someone that knew Riley personally (RIP), I show my bias as singing praises of Power Trip and the Nightmare Logic album. It's a great mix of metal that had a lot of appeal across subgenres of metal. I can kinda agree it's a predictable pick for good metal to get into.
My best friend in middle school turned me on to Metal in the early 90s. It was a refreshing change of pace from the Hair Metal stuff in the same way that Grunge was. But some of the Heavy Metal hasn't aged that well unlike Classic Rock.
Aged equally it was just never incorporated into the genre but other shit did.
I didnt get into metal till i was 18 and getting into maiden was tough. Took a couple tries, as they sounded bit bland, but more i listened to, the more i liked and they put on some of the best live performances.
I first heard brave new world and the theme and atmosphere really took me away. I could see hearing an earlier album and thinking “so what” though
I can respect someone not liking metal or liking the biggest bands in the genre, im sure finn puts respect on their names even if he's not a fan
My man Finn, you truly need to go through the entire Sabbath with Ozzy discography.
The pandemic did a lot for metal. I have the feeling that a lot of people were so bored that they tried something new. Just look at all the hip hop and vocal coach reactors that started to listen even to deathcore and found the musicality in it.
I dare you to listen to a full SOAD album.. 😉
They’re all so good!
Challenge declined!
@@missvincent7017 Fr
I love both of you guys, so it'd be great to see a Collab or podcast appearance of some sort. I think you guys would definitely get along.
I'm 35. My dad, who is right on the boomer)genX line raised me on Metallica and other heavy bands from that era, so I always had an appreciation for them. But when I started to develop my own music taste I couldn't help but think they sounded pretty corny whenever I went back to them. I can still listen to that older stuff, but I'd rather listen to a 2000s era metal band cover them.
FINALLY, someone else who doesn't worship Maiden and everything they have ever done. And for the same exact reason too - my intro to metal was Beneath the Remains, which I picked up in a bargain bin at a used CD store. So by the time I went back to check out Maiden, it was so tame
I can’t believe the Punk Rock MBA doesn’t have at least a certificate in Metal
I listen to lots of different kinds of music, but my heart belongs to metal. Always has, and probably always will. My brother pretty much only listens to underground hip hop, which I have a really hard time listening to for more than a couple songs. So, I suppose, if I can have such a hard time with underground hip hop, I can understand someone having the same issue with metal.
Finn’s good natured trolling is making my metal fan skin thicker 😂🤝🤘
There is nothing good natured about this dude. He is as mean as they come. He would push any band under the truck to make views, plays , money at any cost. He likes all the scene assholes , to him , if you create clout and visibility , you are awesome. That's why Fronz to him is a great person while being shitfuck turdbag nobody. This dude has 0 interest in Punk , or Metal or anything. He just regurgitates things because it is his job, and he is connected in the music industry, that's how he earns money.
Yep. He pushed all of my buttons in this video but I can't stop watching.
I can't really blame Finn for having an axe to grind wit metal fans in general, tbh. Every comment section is a civil war.
@@DeadEndFolliesTube Honestly dude every comments section on every video on YT is like that these days :(
@@DeadEndFolliesTube I watched him praise Avril Lavigne, MGK , all myspace scene, trap shit of these days , pop and literally everything that makes no sense.

yeah and people could have ignored hitler at the time but they didn't so yeah.
Great Sabbath songs: The Wizard, Hole In The Sky (Pantera covered it), Never Say Die, The Writ, Symptom Of The Universe, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Sabbra Cadabra, A Hard Road, anything really off Master Of Reality or Vol 4
I’ve been called a poser because I prefer Sabbath and Metallica to newer metal because I’m not doing deep dives into new music, so seems like you’re a poser if you do or don’t
I just wanna say, despite the way Mic the Snare may present from the vid titles you mentioned (and he definitely does), he’s just soooo much more than that! Oh, how I love Mic the Snare ❤ His comprehensive ‘songs of the 2000s’ breakdown is pure, unequivocal gold 😊
No criticism intended! He seems cool!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA I know you weren’t criticising ;) I just want you to watch that vid, I think you’d love it!
In a lot of places in Europe you can get “American-style” pizza which consists of red sauce, cheese, canned corn, hotdogs and eggs.
It honestly kinda fucking slaps.
I wish someone could have saved me from metal at the young age of 8. Hell…music fandom in general. The music I listened to was my identity pretty much every day of my life until I was like 40. The things I could have accomplished in life if I had just listened to Top 40 radio!
Same bro. Same.
This is more relatable than I'd care to admit
This is depressing and so true for me too
You nailed it!
If you're going to listen to a Black Sabbath album, pick one out of the first three. Personally "" Masters of Reality" is my favorite album overall but "Fairies Wear Boots" on "Paranoid" is my favorite Sabbath song. It has swing to it almost.
I went to a 'metal bar' by mistake once, around 2003. The footwear of choice seemed to be Doc Martens. Only had a couple of drinks before leaving, but was aware of the unrelenting staring from my fellow patrons. It was not dissimilar to when I went to China around 2009, or accidentally going to a gay bar around the same time.
The bathrooms were definitely the worst I've seen in Europe or North America.

Hey Finn, I've been a long time subscriber back when you first started uploading this type of content. I love when you take the piss out of metal heads and a lot of your critiques on the genre - and that's coming from a metalhead. However, it seems with the past few months it seems your views are less critical on aspects and more disdain for the music, genre and the fans all together. Yeah, I get it you're just joking around, some of it even pretty funny. But that only takes you so far. It feels more like these are just your feelings, and that's cool. My question is though, is why do you continue to do this content then? Like you said, your values, worldview, and tastes have changed quite a bit. I almost get the feeling you wouldn't listen to this music at all if it wasn't for your channel. And idc what your like or dislikes about music are, I'm not offended or whatever. It just seems to me you'd be happier doing content you're more passionate about. Anyway, have a good one, man.
My audience is mostly into metal so that’s what I talk about. I had a lot of fun making this video!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA Hey man, thanks for responding. I appreciate it. A lot of creators don't. I know you're conscious about giving your audience what they want. It's just the past few months its starting to show that this scene isn't what you're about anymore. And I couldn't care less. Im cool with that. I could be wrong, of course, and just be protecting. I guess what I mean is I'd rather you fearlessly be yourself and piss everyone off then give your subs what they want. And mind you, this is coming from a 40 year old metal head. I've been in this scene for over 20 years. Metal is my shit. But I do see it absurdies and the comedic values.
Either way, good luck, Finn. I'll still tune in. See ya, man.
Mike.
I liked Metal a lot in HS, but hadn't kept up with it since the 90s. That is until covid, when I caught up on everything from 2000 - 2020.
If you're curious about that Deafheaven song Finn said he liked, it's called Dream House. The album it's on, Sunbather, IMO is a very well made album and a good gateway into black metal if anyone is interested.
Deafheaven got me into black metal from growing up in hardcore. Beach House is a God tier song.
@@howtodrown I think you meant Dream house, and it's one of my favorite intro tracks on any album. Deafheaven's ability to mix sounds that are really beautiful with sounds that are really ugly is something that I haven't quite heard done by anyone else.
It didn't impress me upon first listening to it, so I put it on the back burner...I've been meaning to give it another chance but haven't gotten around to it. I've been into black metal for well over 15 years and I was hoping for fresh take on a genre that had became stale and boring. I personally couldn't care less about the 'hipster' image...if anything, the corpse paint, tight leather pants and homemade weapons were the things I always cringed at and wish didn't exist.
Funny thing is about black metal is that if you gave something like Transylvanian Hunger better production and heaps of reverb and delay it would sound like a post rock band
"But hey listen man, I gotta go pick up my kids. Good talk!" laughed heartily
I may be the minority here but I find it wholesome that iron maiden writes songs about their mommys
15:43 You hit the nail on the head lol. When I was into black metal people would say bands like Dimmu Borgir sound like shit or aren't "real black metal" because their recording equipment is too expensive and the production quality was too high
Never listened to a Black Sabbath album, or owned a Metallica/Iron Maiden album, Finn?! Are you even human?!
the restaurant I work at features an elote pizza in the summer that has corn on it and I promise you'll like it
I've never commented on your videos but this one is actually great and funny ... love it 😎
Thank you!
I dont see why its gotta be this or that.
i can listen to disturbed, iron maiden, cannibal corpse, pantera and whathever. thats the beauty in music.
Dude, gotta love you. I have been a metal fan for almost 3o years, and I have never owned or deliberately listened to any Black Sabbath album or owned a Metallica album. I may have deliberately listened to songs by both bands, and I did borrow a copy of Metallica's latest album when it came out, but that's it. I have tremendous respect for both bands, but my older sister was a huge Metallica's fan, so when i got into metal, i had to find my own path, which meant ignoring Metallica... As for the Sabbath, I have always respected them, but just... never got round to listening to any of their albums... lol
I’ve tried to listen to Deafheaven with an open mind. But to me it sounds like Cradle of Filth covering Smashing Pumpkins songs.
😯
I started listening to extreme metal like Napalm Death in 1988 and I had no problem going back and listening to Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and more classic rock bands like Thin Lizzy. I recently became a fan of Madness, as well. Not even metal adjacent! Listen, regardless of what this clown says, you can go back. Listen and enjoy without any prejudice or peer pressure from windbag content creators.
Agreed! I'm not telling anyone to stop liking anything. Also I saw Armored Saint in 1991 I think with Suicidal Tendencies.
so this is why that video popped up on my recommended videos list this morning.
Same, my mom listened to Slayer, Metallica, Lacrimosa, Cradle of Filth, Paradise Lost, etc before I was born and thats the 1st music I remember ever listening and I grew up believing that Iron Maiden was the most brutal shit ever because of the covers and how people spoke about them, in my mind they were like the sonic equivalent of lets say Napalm Death or Last Days of Humanity, the 1st song I heard from them was I think Wasted Years and it was one of the most disappointing experiences of my life, I was like 11 at that point and I was really into Fear Factory, Slipknot, Sepultura, At the Gates, Immortal, etc, why would anybody want to hear that shit? still to this day it perplexes me how they fill stadiums, Motley Crue had way more edge than Iron Maiden...
It's not about the heaviness but the high energy, dual guitar melodies, lyrics, and imagery. Every Swedish Death Metal band is influenced by them mostly because of the dual guitar melodies, At The Gates included. And they are a very catchy band. Plus Bruce Dickinson has a huge stage presence. He is jumping and running all over the stage and interacting with the crowd. I wouldn’t start with Wasted Years. That's their experimental phase. Try Number of the Beast, Two Minutes To Midnight, Fear of the Dark, Killers, Aces High, Run To The Hills.
@@doublewhat07 i involuntarely listened to their entire catalogue, a gf I had was a huge fan and put their albums all the time, Paul the 1st singer was the superior singer imo he had a punky vibe but you totally missed the point I just don't like them, never will, ofc they have my respect but their music is bland, no edge whatsoever, you missed the point dude
@@doublewhat07 Two Minutes to Midnight has me aching for GTA Vice City V-Rock
@@gasmaskestore8018 Iron Maiden has an edge. Youre not paying attention to the lyrics. They sing about killing babies in the womb in 2 Minutes To Midnight. Blood flowing on self titled track. Fear of the Dark is scary because it can happen in real life. There are people who have that kind of phobia. Plus walking a long dark road not knowing what's ahead can be uneasy. How about the song Killers which someone stalking you. Plus they sing about history especially about war, which in itself has an edge. Hell alot of their songs are scary because it did happen in real life. If Iron Maiden had vocals like Cannibal Corpse then no one would be thinking that they didn'thave an edge. Slayer sometimes has the same problem. Maiden is scary because they came out during a time before thrash and outside of Priest and Motorhead, there were nothing like them. 1976 is when they began as a band. 1980 first album. They are not bland. They got one of the best bassist in the world and their riffs jam and blow speakers to 11.
They don't sound like death metal or thrash metal. Well duh... since that is the issue I'll give a contrast...
How about bands who sound scary but dont sing about scary stuff.
My example is Mortification and the song "Scrolls of the Megolloth"? It's old school death metal with all the usual blast beats and tremolo riffing. Imagine hearing how scary Mortification is. You listen to them as a kid thinking they are cool but as an adult, you finally read the lyrics, and find out that all they sing on that song is the Bible and how awesome it is to read it!. Yep Christian Death Metal from 1992. Scary stuff just watch the music video. Its awesome. Makes you think you're that the world is ending. If you compare them to Iron Maiden then who is edgier?

the next step in mics journey in falling in love with metal should be collaborating with finn mckenty
When the Black Album came out when I was a kid I thought they were singing State Patrol, not Sad But True.
🎵 YOU KNOW IT'S STATE PATROL 😂
my friend always used to call it 'sand patrol' in college lmfaooo
Hah! My lil brain heard "SAD PATROL". I was like, they sound pretty mad for being the supposed "sad patrol".
Lmao because of one your videos, I literally wore my shoes for crews to a concert. 🤣
Black Sabbath + weed = good times
And the best thing is taste is subjective, no one can prove otherwise.
As a person who makes metal his own identity for ten more years, and trying to get back control of life as normal humanbeing, Finn is top tier comedy
This may have been my favorite video yet. I was lucky to hear all the British metal bands before I heard thrash. I love them all.
the description of metallica albums by this guy was golden
I've never heard a better description of metal. Monotonous fits really well, I don't typically binge metal for very long because it just becomes white noise after a while
you just listen to shite metal, if you listen to metallica all day of course you’ll be dying to turn it off
When you said it, I realized I had never listened to a Black Sabbath album all the way through myself, either… 😳 thanks for making me feel like I’m a poser, too 😂 I’ll probs listen to the albums one of these days, though… and, in my defense, I have listened to a bunch of Ozzy’s solo albums all the way through, many many times… and one of my very first concerts was an Ozzy show when I was 7 years old, so even if I’m not THE most knowledgeable about Sabbath, my mom quite literally raised me on Ozzy’s solo stuff and I have that going for me 😂 (I did also see Sabbath and solo Ozzy shows as an adult, as well, so there’s that, too)
My point is, you can be a genuine fan of that style of music and still not know every single song or album bc there’s just SO much of it and especially if you weren’t alive when it came out and now you’re living in the age of being able to stream a million different artists whenever you want, there’s just too much to delve into to know EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING at this point and we’re all gonna have our gaps that we’re working on filling in, day by day. Rome wasn’t built in a day, man haha
I have also listened to Metallica’s full discography and saw them live, too… so I have that going for me, also 😂😂😂
Well, minus Lulu… can’t listen to that shit. Makes my ears bleed hahaha
Idk why people shit on St. Anger so much, though… it’s not their best stuff, but it’s CERTAINLY a million times better than Lulu (granted, pretty much anything is, but like it’s still not that bad of an album. There’s a few worthwhile songs on there and even the rest of it is just meh more than actually bad)
Interesting colloquial take for a guy who grew up saying “ pop” “suckers” and “ melk”😂
Can someone explain the comparison between Gojira and Throwdown for me? I really feel like I must be missing something. I just feel like their sounds are so different, but maybe that's because my main Gojira experience is from L'enfant Sauvage.
@Finn Mckenty Some old school country fans can be gatekeepers, they would get triggered at the mention of any modern country bands, saying stuff like "That's not real country, its fake pop garbage", but with more vulgar language thrown in. Theyre in the minority but ive personally met a few of them. Modern country pop fans can sometimes be toxic too, such as the old town road incident, or if someone in the scene publicly goes against their conservative politics, like that time in the mid 2000's when practically the whole country scene (and some butt rock folks, including the band Saliva) turned on the Dixie Chicks for saying they disliked then-president George Bush during a concert
The best advice as a music fan is to be eclectic. I can be listening to behemoth one minute, lady gaga the next, then Brooks and Dunn and then crazy frog, all in the span of like an hour. Music is more fun when you have diverse taste. I found that out the hard way after years of exclusively listening to metal and rap.
This is the closest Finn will be to hearing Neil Cicierega
I wouldn’t say Master of Puppets was “heavily featured” in Stranger Things. It was in the last episode for like 20 seconds.
Sabbath's album 13 from 2013 is really pretty amazing.
03:34 Black Sabbath actually started out as a blues band called “Earth”…
Finn pokes fun at the bro who just wants to listen to some heavy shit that will get him pumped up yet he has been one of them since like 1990 🤭. Stay classy Finn 👌 I hope you hit 1 mil subs you deserve it 🙌💪
I agree with you on old metal, I'm 44 so by the time I was 12, 13 I was into mid 80s stuff and early 90s stuff that older kids I knew where into 👍
If you've never listned to Paranoid, it really is worth it. Not perfect, there's some skips, but generally it is pretty good and worth the respect. Master of Reality is also really good. None of the other albums come close to those two.
I am that Gojira worshipper. Love Bury Your Dead, I just like Gojira more.
Nah man Sabbath bloody sabbath is their best album.
Self titled is the best. The song Black Sabbath is the blueprint for metal.
Vol 4 is fucking great
up to Sabotage it's all gold, come on!
AC's "picnic of love" is the only metal album you need.
