What do we imagine when we hear "Fandom"? Big group of people connected with and by something popular. Music, games, books or collectable things. Sometimes we can find fandoms based on owning something. For example bikers.
So this Fandom is based on one of these things. Beautiful music way, named "Metal".
This Fandom was born in 1970s with big part of it's fans and people's love to hard unusual music in Europe and then in the whole world. Metal may be really different. Most popular: Nu-metal, dark metal, heavy metal, Gothic metal, dead metal, etc. Everyone know metal groups. Metallica, Rammstein, Limp bikit, Deep purple, Three days grace, the Prodigy. There are hundreds of them and all of them are different.
Main idea: liberty. Basically, metalheads are lovers of heavy music, who love tattoos, loud concerts and alcohol, but they don’t take drugs. They wear black leather jackets, jeans, bracelets with big amount of spikes, heavy boots, sometimes long hair and makeup (as "Kiss" band members do)
Metalheads usually meet at metal groups concerts and you can easily go to one of concerts this summer.
