good marketing and quality sound recording does not = mainstream garbage, most of that shit you posted sounds like it was recorded in my moms basement on a 4 track i bought a garage sale

metal elitism died in the 90's bro get with the times

Marketing, sound recording quality... Yeah, you've definitely bought into the commercial ideal of 'metal'... Not the heart of it.

P.S. Don't knock 4-tracks... We recorded our album before last on a 4-track and it sounds better than the studio one we just released.

if sounding better than a few guys banging some trash cans together and puking into a microphone is your idea of "commercial metal" then i guess you're right. personally "commercial metal" to me is the garbage you hear on the radio.. you know shit like 5fdp, seether, nickleback... now those are over commercialized watered down wannabe "metal" bands. not shadows fall, chimaira, LoG or any other the numerous new wave of metal bands that happen to sound good and also be successful.

success does not equal mainstream

and obscurity does not make a band good

None of those bands sound remotely like that... In fact "a few guys banging some trash cans together and puking into a microphone" remarkably like the response of the guy in the gif the OP posted.. These are people who are often excellent musicians, choosing to play something with a little more 'soul' than the polished, watered-down stuff.
