"You're the Biggest Poser" - Shayan & Wyatt on Groupthink in the Metal Scene | Ep. 185

"You're the biggest poser" - Shayan and Wyatt (Wyatt's Metal) redefine what it actually means to sell out in the metal scene. In this episode of Iblis Manifestations, Shayan sits down with Wyatt from Wyatt's Metal to talk about groupthink, censorship, and the growing pressure to conform in underground metal. We dig into why individuality is being replaced by tribalism, how self-censorship has crept into a scene built on rebellion, and why real growth means challenging your own beliefs instead of just picking a side.
