Has anyone heard of people crying at metal shows/metal bands crying on stage?

[they don't love you like i love you]

Inspired by an IRC discussion. Because I never have and I doubt it's very common and thus LOL@anyone who thinks my music is anything like metal.

(I was thining of a particular band that was known for people crying at their shows, people crying on stage, and also people coming on stage and giving sobbing testimonials about how the music and the scene have changed them and they are now so new people and have never felt like this before, etc. etc.)

New display name is one of their lyrics.

     I really doubt that anything like that has actually happened. While there is a wide variety in metal, the genre has a particular ethos, which this sort of thing falls well outside of.

For that matter have you ever heard of or seen a metal vocalist do something like this? I have a hard time visualizing some face painted black metaller doing that lol.

BRTD's decade-long performance art is starting to show worrying signs of the artist's desperate cry for help.

I don't even think our resident emo kid does this.

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

I don't care whether on they are or are not crying as long as they don't do it when playing a concert at a baseball park.  That's because as we all know, there's no crying in baseball parks.

That's because he doesn't listen to real emo like this. Best example of the sobbing vocal style.

Now how many people would actually consider that song metal?

I've seen people cry at Coheed shows and they are certainly a band that dabbles in metal.

Wha, what?

What songs do they have that sounds anything like this or this?

They sound a lot like Iron Maiden at times.  And Welcome Home is certainly metal.

Metal goes beyond death and sludge, dude.

That's...interesting. But they're primarily not a metal band. I'm also kind of surprised people have cried at their shows.

I'm thinking of things like how in this band's last show people would get on "stage" (using the term very loosely here, this is what it looked like and would give these tearful testimonies about SJW stuff and how they were so changed by the people around them, etc. And at one point the vocalist explained what "Saturday's Cab Ride Home" is all about and sobbed while he talked about how it's about how several years earlier he was frequently having casual and often unprotected sex carelessly and realized he may have contracted an STD and the fear he had to live with that he may die soon because of it and his reluctance to be tested because he was afraid of the possible answers....and how thankful he was once he finally did and found out he was lucky and didn't contract anything. You probably wouldn't like it though. At one point he said something like "So I suppose it's possible that maybe God...or something was actually looking out for me." Of course if he said anything like that at a metal show all the black metal knights would want to cut his head off and rip his heart out.

Sawx texted me at 4 in the morning to ask me if I'd ever heard about anything like this, and I never have. Just for what it's worth.

Also should be noted that BRTD's understanding of my music taste is frozen in what it was in 2012, and obviously my music taste has evolved rather largely since then.

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

BRTD please stop

what the fyck are you talking about

Well yeah. You think first wave screamo was the late 90s.

So do you like Rites of Spring now?

Actually, yes. I do.

I will never make the mistake of clicking a link of yours to 'music' again.  That was just f**king awful.  Like literally I like whatever the opposite of that music is...
