Of course NOT! Death metal came about in the 80's, so the oldest death metal fans are probably only in their 40's. And there are plenty of young death metal fans- like me! ...Absolute Rubbish on the age thing. Dude I'm a totally dedicated fan of Extreme Metal, and I'm 51 years old. I'm a vocalist in a band called 1 Foot In the Grave. I've been into Death Metal for over 30 years. How many members of Slayer are older than 40..All of them. There's even a band in Scandinavia with a Monk as a vocalist and he is 63 years old. His band plays supporting such bands as Mayhem etc.The first true Death Metal band was Florida's DEATH whom I first heard in 1984.I also was into Mayhem around the same time, long before Dead(vocalist) killed himself, and Euronymous was murdered. My Drummer even has a piece of Dead's Skull sent to him by Euronymous.
