On the other hand: Should we revive this thread, I've got lots of shirts to share.
Do it!
I don't have metal shirts because I'm boring.
I've always felt left out, when it came to heavy metal.. I suppose I haven't taken enough drugs or experienced enough -torment- of the soul, to understand it..

Its just all preference man, if your ears dont enjoy it no worries. I listen to everything, metal, punk, pop punk, screamo, hardcore, pop, rap, hip hop, dubstep, techno, industrial, etc. Only small amount of country and I dont know any Jazz but it doesnt bug me. Music is life man, love it!

Stereotypes. Blatant stereotypes...
btw, is Metallica still considered "metal"?
Mostly I just wanna run in a circle in a crowded room. Or jump off a stage. Or jump onto a stage then jump into a crowd. Or jump on someone's shoulders and scream lyrics at the stage.
It made me laugh that you looked it up on Wiki first. If you like it, listen to more of it. If you don't, listen to something else. Easy.
I am always interested in understanding why someone do what they do, like what they like.
This running in circles, jumping into the crowd, and screaming lyrics..
This would be a rather complicated set of motions to orchestrate..
-------- Is ^^^^ that something you typically want to do, or a consequence of the music moving you into the mooood to do so...
-------------- as in.. do you have other reasons that you'd normally want to run in circles and jump into a crowd and scream... or is it the music which carry you towards the seemingly-manic state of mind...

When I listened to the heavy metal, I felt that in order to (take it in) focus on the music, due to the complexity and quick transitions, it was not possible to think about anything else...
so.. that i would describe as perhaps a thorough-escape from my own immediate conscious..
I feel like heavy metal can be a vent some times, it helps get my anger out.
In response to the complexity-question, yes - some of it requires more attention-to-detail but I think that after listening to it for a long time you'll get used to it and it'll come naturally.
but there are also a lot of genres, sub-genres and sub-sub-genres. Some more calm others even more aggressive.

Sometimes you just gotta mosh man. It's the music. And figuring out the complexities gets easier like Frenir said. Also, it's not that hard to coordinate it all.
