I've been wondering this for some time. Most of the really hardcore (as in hardcore music (as in genre)) metalhead musicians i know are in highschool, highschool dropouts with GEDs, or college dropouts. There are handful going to college and i don't know any that have finish with a bachelors (edit: i think i know one). So what do you guys know or think about this? and whats your experience? Also, what do you think the average education level in other genres are? I mostly interested in Jazz and classical, but i'm not limited to hearing about those.
-Unrelated, i'm in two bands. One is a death metal band and the other is my own prog rock band. In the prog rock band i'm the only one who listens to metal, so i'm the "metal" one in the group, but in the death metal band i'm as not-metal in that group as i am "metal" in my own.
I'm currently a sophomore at UNC majoring in physics and minoring in music. I love listening to Meshuggah and Opeth.
PS: I'm not saying more education makes someone write better music at all. I'm just curious about this.
Edit:I don't want just ur education level. This isn't a survey.
