Metal community research.
I am conducting research on members of the metal community, and I would love anyone's input if they're willing to help. If you're not a metal person, and would like to help shoot me a message here! I would love everyone's feedback on the subject matter.

I'm studying metal from an anthropological viewpoint. What makes us who we are, why we like it, and what we benefit from it. I have a few short questions for preliminary research, and I would love for any input at all. You can message them to me, or email at wms5043@gmail.com

Questions:
1.) What is it about metal that attracts you to the genre?

2.) Do you think there are any implications to being a metal head? Like are there any social traits you would expect a metal listener to have?

3.) What is it about metal that you believe brings us all together as a community?

4.) Do you think that people outside of the community have wrong stereotypes about metal heads? If you do, what do you think they are? Do you imagine yourself being in any of those categories?

5.) have you ever seen Sam Dunn's "Metal a Headbanger's Journey?" Do you think we're a culture of people that deserves some research. For instance, do you think that the community would benefit from telling others who we are?

6.) Metal has a ton of different sub-genres. LCTR is progressive, Darkthrone is black metal so on and so forth... Do you think these genres present a barrier within the community? Does it separate us at all?

7.) When you go to a metal show or see one of your favorite bands, what do you like to do at a venue? Are you able to experience life in a way that is unlike anything else? Do you get aggression out or relieve stress or anything like that?

8.) And lastly ... if there was one thing you wanted the world to know about you, and how you feel about music what would it be?
