\"\"Twisted Sister rocker\u00a0Dee Snider has spoken out in a new interview about his issues with the metal community, along with the reason why he quit music back in the \u201990s.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In his recent appearance on\u00a0The Jasta Show,\u00a0<\/em>Snider explained that he felt as if he never truly knew his place within the metal community.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy problem was \u2013 as much as I love the metal community, I didn\u2019t know where I fit in. Where is my place? I was taking my own words too hard \u2013 stay hungry, there is no room for wannabes, has-beens, or the bad,\u201d Snider said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt some point in the \u201990s, I just said, \u2018Alright, I think my time is up. I gotta make room for the other people.\u2019 I hated all these old rockers who refused to go away.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd even worse \u2013 Genesis turned into four bands! We had Genesis, and now we have Peter Gabriel, Mike & The Mechanics, Phil Collins\u2026 What the fuck?!<\/p>\n

Snider continued: \u201cThis is where Twisted comes up \u2013 where is our moment? Get the fuck out of the way! I had that feeling in the \u201990s, at the end of [Dee\u2019s band] The Widowmaker thing \u2013 maybe I should heed my own words.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I stopped writing, I stopped creating, everything I did was that Twisted stuff and whatever, and stuff where I didn\u2019t want to be really.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cAnd then you [Jamey Jasta, the frontman of Hatebreed, the host of the podcast, and the producer of Dee\u2019s solo album] come along and said, \u2018No, no, man. You\u2019ve got a place. Where? Let me show you!\u2019 And I thank you for that, Jasta.\u201d<\/p>\n

In other Dee Snider news, the outspoken rock legend recently spoke of his love for Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl after he was asked which celebrity he would love to meet.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve got so much admiration for him and respect, a true fan of metal. That\u00a0Probot<\/em>\u00a0record \u2013 that is so good.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf people don\u2019t know of\u00a0Probot<\/em>, Dave is a fan of hardcore metal. He got all those great vocalists [for the\u00a0Probot<\/em>\u00a0project], and just created this album, wrote songs with them, produced them, recorded them\u2026<\/p>\n

Snider continued: \u201cI\u2019m just dying to say, \u2018Dude, just tell me I was on the list!\u2019 I\u2019m hoping that I didn\u2019t make the cut but have a feeling that if you liked that stuff, then you liked \u2018Under the Blade,\u2019 at least that, and maybe had a bleeding thought for a minute, \u2018Dee Snider\u2026? Hm, no, no\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause he had other people like Lemmy, Max [Cavalera], and all these great metal vocalists are on there.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve performed with all these [Foo Fighters] guys when they do the Chevy Metal thing, I\u2019ve performed with the Chevy Metal guys, but I\u2019ve never met Dave.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cAnd we are both coffee junkies.\u201d<\/p>\n
