Ahhh, you Jesterhead!
 
Would you consider yourself a fan enough of any band to call yourself what they call their fans?

For example: Slipknot calls their fans "Maggots". Do you like them enough to call yourself a "Maggot"?

I fit under quite a few:
Jesterhead (In Flames)
Maggot (Slipknot)
Part of the BvB Army (Black Veil Brides)
Disturbed One (Disturbed)
Street Youth Rage (Pierce The Veil)
Panhead (Skillet)
Youngblood (Fall Out Boy)


Some bands don't have names for their fans, so I'll just list those now I guess.

Thousand Foot Krutch
Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!
Sleeping With Sirens
KoRn
Downplay
Crown The Empire
Bad Suns
A Day To Remember
The Used
Kamelot
Papa Roach

I don't think it's stupid to name their fans. I think it shows how much they care. When someone gives you a nickname, whether it be bad or good, it shows some level of respect.

I don't think that any of the bands I'm a fan of have names for their fans.

maccrash April 22nd, 2014 5:14 AM

none of the bands I like call have names for their fans because none of the bands I like are STUPID #wrecked

Eevee-Kins April 22nd, 2014 5:33 AM

The only one I can think of is Fall Out Boy and that's Youngbloods.

Limey-chan April 22nd, 2014 5:37 AM

Yeah, none of the bands I like have given a nickname to their fans. Clearly they're all just too painfully hipster for such nonsense.

This fine piece of thread making belongs to my sexy friend in Culture & Media

Huh, I didn't even know they had a name for them.

I didn't either until one of my friends told me.

Off the ones you listed, I could be categorized as Jesterhead, Maggot, Disturbed One, and Panhead. xD;; Personally, though, I don't really like these terms. I prefer being referred to as just a fan, haha.

Eevee April 25th, 2014 6:46 AM

I'm not a fan of bands that much in order to be obsessed with them. I'm more into voice actors and voice actresses. xD

I don't think I listen to or follow a band enough to be labeled whatever they call their fans, I can hardly even be called a fan of most bands. I hate a lot of bands that I listen to with a burning passion because most of their songs suck and their fanbase makes them seem like bad words, but there may be those one or two songs by them that I can get into. I hate BOTDF, always have and always will, but every now and again I can listen to Bewitched because it's still a better love story than Twilight.

AcesHigh89 April 25th, 2014 8:17 PM

Droogies for Megadeth I believe...

antemortem April 26th, 2014 6:20 AM

I listen to more solo artists than anything, though I do listen to Panic! at the Disco and I think they call their fans Sinners.

pompayyy April 26th, 2014 1:15 PM

What about the juggalos? I mean, eight year olds wearing clown make-up can be considered a fanbase, right?

Explain more why fan names and bands that have them are stupid. It makes the fans of said band more unique imo.

I'm a big Owl City fan personally and the fandom name is Hootowl. I know that some people call us Owl Citizens, but most prefer Hootowl. Apparently Fall Out boy fans are Youngbloods (probably after the Youngblood Chronicles ,the story concept of their newest album) and I didn't know that even though I'm really into Fall Out Boy. I'm also part of the MCRmy/Killjoys (My Chemical Romance), I'm a Para♥♥♥♥♥ (Paramore) , and I'm part of the skeleton clique (Twenty One Pilots) .

Rinna April 27th, 2014 1:03 AM

Panhead
Maggot
Creature (Motionless in White)

only fan-names I remember off the top of my head

Well I'm an idiot who needs to stop over-reacting to things....sorry man.

Relevant edit: I would also throw myself into the Panheads and Firebreathers (Imagine Dragons) as well.
