They said "obscure little", not "the most popular and hyped metal act currently, with sold out shows worldwide"

Not something I was aware of. Most people I talk to haven't heard of them.

If it helps, I've never heard of them.

All good and all, and not trying to be a dick.

Saw homie was catching downvotes, figures to explain why.

Sleep Token rules. I saw them 2 months ago. Their merch line literally lasted longer than their show. By hours.

That will never occur at even a remotely small, remotely obscure bands show.

Metal is huge as a genre but it somehow still flies under the radar. 90% of people I meet have no clue about metal at all.
