is there something about metal fandoms that makes them extremely likely to be home to unique and exciting types of fandombrain (derogatory)

If you mean metal as in the music genre, the answer is Nazis. Being around Nazis does things to your morality and your psyche.

i think some of it is that people get especially weird about RL people that they're fannish about, bc i've never seen fandoms half as weird (derogatory) as bandom fandoms in general but like in the same way people get about youtubers these days.

but i also mostly steer clear of those so i can't speak to metal in particular. there is not enough explosions in "people who make music" to hold my interest LOL
