Your Definition

Despite common opinion, there is a difference between a metalhead and a simple metal fan. A metal fan is simply someone who likes to [listen] to metal.

A metalhead on the other hand is a dying breed of people that once made up a full blown countercultural movement of the 70s and 80s, but since has been worn down to a small and dispersed subculture. [The internet] has provided a great medium for metalheads to communicate through messageboards and forums about various metal groups both old and new.

A metalhead is not only a fan of metal music, but is dedicated to the knowledge of groups, to appreciating the full depth of various metal music (which is EXTREMELY deep), and appreciating the diversity of metal. A lot of [metal heads] have an [appreciation] of classical and opera music as well, in fact studies show that metalheads and [classical music] listeners have similar personalities, especially when it comes to music.

Contrary to stereotypes, there is no specific ideology or fashion for metalheads. Some may wear a suit and tie every day and carry a briefcase, some will dress stereotypically with worn out jeans, band t shirts of various bands they like, and grown out hair/beards. As for ideology, metalheads are normally diverse in their ideologies, although it is common to see one that's has a more apathetic ideology.
