[QUOTE=shane italian]**Decided to bring this into the Punk Forum. If it turns into a spam/agrument thread then close it as soon as possible. It's meant for education and actual discussion.


This is for those of you who throw around the the phrase hardcore far too often.

Metalcore is often mistaken for Hardcore on these boards. Here's the difference.

Hardcore is punk influenced music that sometimes has a heavier sound and sometime's doesn't. It sometimes have breakdowns and some don't, this depends more on the age of the band. Some are straight edge, some aren't. But most have honest sincere lyrics about issues that they themselves face.

Metalcore is obviously metal influenced and because they're of this there is more complexity in the writings of guitar, more noted riffs added to it than hardcore has.. Some say that it has punk influences...but that depends on what band you are talking about. Metalcore has a lot of breakdowns, most of which have the "JUN JUN JUN" sound which some double bass. Metalcore was a lot better a couple years ago before more and more band's started learning that you can tune into drop-C, use only thin picks, and get a drummer who knows his double bass.

Hardcore bands:
Blood For Blood, Chain Of Strength, American Nightmare, Death Threat, Judge, Gorilla Biscuits, 7 Seconds, Champion, Count Me Out, Carry On, Terror

Metalcore bands:
Hatebreed, 100 Demons, Bury Your Dead, Black My Heart, On Broken Wings, Hoods, North Side Kings, Walls Of Jericho, Clenched Fist

Hatebreed is hardcore and sounds nothing like metal. The only other thing i want 2 comment on is you left out the 2 most known probably best metalcore bands Lamb of God,God Forbid and Killswitch Engage which basically put metalcore on the map.

I'm from Florida, too, and I hate it.

The Autumn Offering just got signed and released their first full length, but Zeuss and Jamey Jasta managed to ruin the entire thing. I know that sounds strange, but I have their demo and it sounds better than the record. Shai Halud is from around here, too.

Also, my band will soon be famous. Maybe.

Hahaha, The Autumn Offering's bassist IMd me after I was defending them on Lambgoat. Interesting guy. After a "brb gotta get vicodin", he tried to sell me their CD and sent me their flyer. I told him I'd pass it out at shows but I haven't done so. He can't type very well at all.

I downloaded it having never heard anything else by them, and I like it. It's not innovative or anything like that, but it's just good metalcore.

By the way, I posted about this a few pages back with the new Fordirelifesake.

If you didn't know... I live in NYC. I saw MPB in Boston with With Honor and Agnostic Front (I left before them though) over the summer. I wasn't familiar with their music then, and I was there to see With Honor.

18 in a few months. I'm not getting paid or anything. I want to be a music journalist for a living (Rolling Stone, hopefully), and I street teamed for RTO all summer. I met one of the head guys at a skate competition when we handed out some stuff for hellfest, and I eventually emailed him and told him I was interested in doing some writing for them if they needed it. They finally set me up with an email address today. And apparently, they can get me on the guestlist if I interview bands.

All in all, I'm ridiculously excited.

p.s.: street teaming for //rto gets you so much free ****. i got the hellfest dvd before it came out, and they just said they were giving us either the new zao or the new ffaf cd's. i don't know which one to pick though. i like 7 ways to scream your name, but i hear the new cd isn't great. also, i'm not a particularly huge zao fan.

Ya I just checked em out. They are pretty good. Ne wayz I have something I want to ask. What really is the point of categorizing bands so much? Emo is probably the most controversial genre I've come across. I see threads all the time, where ppl r like hating on Emo, and then there are arguments. I don't ever see as much of that in the Metal threads. So why all the arguing? I think Hardcore has too many sub categories though. Although it does make sense, a lot of ppl aren't really very familar with all these sub genres, and just call a band "emo" or "metal". I know I used to do that. I guess I'm just throwing this out there, because I don't see the need to categorize so much.

REINER
10-01-2004, 10:25 PM
You need catagories because you can't put a band like say Terror with a band like Dag Nasty. While they both belong under the umbrella of hardcore, Dag Nasty is more of a Post-Hardcore/Emocore.

Crazy, I thought you were younger. I turn 18 in a week. I was going to go into journalism too, but at the last moment I backed out so now I'm just doing my general ed. I've been reconsidering it lately, but I have no idea what publication I'd like to write for. Definitely not Rolling Stone or Spin or any of the big magazines, because frankly they're just the magazine equivalent of MTV. The only mainstream mags I like are Guitar World and Revolver, but it's pretty dumb to go through college and get my major in Journalism and just hope that I get hired by one of two magazines. I'd love to write for a zine, but there's no way in hell you could live off of that.

I was just discussing this with my buddy tonight. It's because... ok, take Death Metal and uh, Polka. Two COMPLETELY different genres. Now, what if you knew what Death Metal was, but almost everyone was referring to Polka as Death Metal? Well that's what the whole emo thing is like. The fact of the matter is that Thursday, From First to Last, The Beautiful Mistake, Senses Fail, etc. etc. are nowhere remotely CLOSE to what emo really is. MTV might tell you that, but it couldn't be further from the truth. Emo is chaotic, basically all screaming or yelling vocals, no pretty singing whatsoever, there's a disregard for melody, it's basically the complete antithesis of what gets called emo by the people on these forums.

Now, since you've never heard real emo (I'm not trying to be mean here), it's easy for you to just say "Oh, why are they getting so worked up?"... well it's because you've never heard it, so to you, in your mind, it doesn't exist. If a person is completely oblivious to something, then it does it exist in their minds? No, it does not. And that is why people freak about people like us that try and tell them what emo really is. Bands like Rites of Spring, Antioch Arrow, Still Life, Indian Summer, not pop-punk with screaming.

Now, since you've never heard real emo (I'm not trying to be mean here), it's easy for you to just say "Oh, why are they getting so worked up?"... well it's because you've never heard it, so to you, in your mind, it doesn't exist. If a person is completely oblivious to something, then it does it exist in their minds? No, it does not. And that is why people freak about people like us that try and tell them what emo really is. Bands like Rites of Spring, Antioch Arrow, Still Life, Indian Summer, not pop-punk with screaming.

I totally understand. Thats why I'm reading this thread. I've realized that I've never really listened to emo.

I saw this and had to add my two cents, don't take this as me trying to slam you or anything of the sort. I'm sorry if you have gone over any of this, but here I go...

Hardcore is not Punk influenced music, it is Punk. Negative Approach, DOA, Minor Threat, Black Flag, Bad Brains, The Beastie Boys--all Hardcore. Bands like Terror and Hatebreed are often called 90's Hardcore, or, seeing as how it is part Metal and part Hardcore, Metalcore. Modern Metalcore takes even more from Metal, owing most of their sound to Melodic Death Metal such as At the Gates (Bleeding Through) and various Tech. Death bands (The Dillinger Escape Plan).

On to Grind...

Grindcore cannot be technical. If you took DOA and refined them--made tight and technical--they'd no longer be a Punk band, would they? Of course not, they'd be playing Thrash Metal. It's the same with Grindcore. A Grindcore band ceases to be Grind when it adds technicality; it becomes Death Metal. As for these newer "Grind" bands such as DEP, what is Grindcore about them? They use a blastbeat on occasion with intense vocals--big deal. That describes Death Metal, Black Metal, Grindcore, and some Hardcore Punk. Grindcore is Rot, (early) Napalm Death, (old) Impetigo, Gut, (ROP era) Carcass, and Regurgitate, not PsyOpus, DEP, The End, Pig Destroyer, and other bands of that sort.

Crazy, I thought you were younger. I turn 18 in a week. I was going to go into journalism too, but at the last moment I backed out so now I'm just doing my general ed. I've been reconsidering it lately, but I have no idea what publication I'd like to write for. Definitely not Rolling Stone or Spin or any of the big magazines, because frankly they're just the magazine equivalent of MTV. The only mainstream mags I like are Guitar World and Revolver, but it's pretty dumb to go through college and get my major in Journalism and just hope that I get hired by one of two magazines. I'd love to write for a zine, but there's no way in hell you could live off of that.


Actually, I turn 18 on November 3rd--I can't vote! :angry: Anyway, Rolling Stone is certainly no the ONLY thing I'd like to do, but I think writing for a big time magazine would be really cool. I'd have no problem starting off writing for AP or Revolver.

I'm a senior in a high school though, we have weird cut off dates. I have a month to do my early decision application too.

Awesome man. I went to this abandoned mental asylum today called The Skillman Institute in Princeton with my friends. Out of 30+ buildings, we went in about 8. First we went to the gymnasium, but we couldn't get in. We then went to like the visitors center place, and when we looked in the window, there were typewriters and office files just sitting there. Everyone just up and left. The place was abandoned in 1998. We then saw personnel housing, which was nuts. We saw their beds and stuff. Then we went to like this patient housing kinda place where we saw this old kitchen and then we descended into the bomb shelter. I was scared shitless. Then we go in this scary *** patient ward with these curtains and **** all over the place. Then these thick double doors that went into the basement. I didn't feel like going down there. So we went to the 4 sotry school house and dared my friend to go in alone with the video camera and flashlight and stick his head out the attic window. If he did it, he got $15.00. Well, the attic was unreachable but he stayed in there for about a half hour. We then go to this freaky as hell abandoned house with boarded windows and ****, and then the final place. The main hospital. By now I was shaken. So we cross this creek and go around fornt. Now in the basement, there's supposedly a morgue and crematorium, but did not find them. The first thing we saw when we went in was graffiti saying thinks like, "Help" and "The Gift Of Pestilence." We see some rooms and **** and then get the **** out of there. It was a fun, but frightening day. I cannot imagine how people go there at night.

my friends and i were going to go to this abandoned mental hospital here back in the spring, but the day before we we're going to go, this 1 kid going got caught by a cop in there. they just took him home, but if we went and he got caught again, he would be screwed. i'm going to go back sometime. i looked at some websites that have pictures and stuff and it looks pretty freaky. supposedly satanic cults do some crazy stuff in there. there was a picture of a dead chicken hung from the ceiling and a dead deer in a hallway with a mask on it. the state shut it down 15 years ago because of how the patients were treated. it has a bunch of underground tunnels linking all the buildings.

cbmartinez
10-02-2004, 06:44 PM
Same with Skillman. It started as just an epilepsy treatment place, but soon sick and violent people were thrown in there. Patients often killed themselves, other patients and caretakers, and many of the guards supposedly raped the patients. The people in Weird NJ who went there said that they found nurse's gowns with blood on them, EKG machines, wheelchairs, files and other stuff. The guy who went to the morgue said the drawers were open and that there were candles all over the place. Oh yeah, I forgot the freakiest part of the story. When we were behind the hospital, we found a ****ing skeleton. At first every spazzs and says it's human, but it was just a deer. It was still scary and it could have been a victim of cult activity, as Satanism rampant in NJ.

Grindcore in its purest form consisted of short, apocalyptic blasts of noise played on standard heavy metal instrumentation (distorted guitar, bass, drums). Although grindcore wasn't just randomly improvised, it certainly didn't follow conventional structure, either; while riffs could sometimes be picked out, pure grindcore never featured verses, choruses, or even melodies. Grindcore vocals sounded torturous, ranging from high-pitched shrieks to low, throat-shredding growls and barks; although the lyrics were usually quite verbose, they were very rarely intelligible. Some bands in this catagory can also be known as Mathcore. Meaning they're more complex in the musical writings.

Grindcore bands:
Napalm Death, Dillinger Escape Plan, Death, Carcass, The Locust, The Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza

youre forgetting one of the best grindcore bands today...DAUGHTERS!!! their cd is 11 songs, and its just over 11 min...so so goood...also circle takes the square, but they have really long songs, and dual male/female vocals.....so crazy, only three people in the band, but it sounds like 5 or 6 they aren't true grindcore, but they would be melodic grindcore if such a thing ever came to be...

I wanna' got to Clinton Road, supposedly a very active satanist gathering location and there's a bridge that if you throw a quarter off of, this ghost of a boy will either throw it at your car or come up and give it back to you. Also, I want to go to the Marlboro Slaughterhouse, it looks so scary. They supposedly found one of guards with his head replaced by a pigs head when the farmer that the land was stole from went insane and killed people. But there's all this graffiti and rooms with drains in the middle where the blood from the animals used to drain.

People classify them as grind because there really isn't an adequate term to describe those sorts of bands yet. It's a sort of combo of grind and technical punk/metal/hardcore (doesn't matter which), though Locust has some industrial thrown in too.

Ever hear the band "Terminally your aborted ghost" It scares me.

What is the daughters, the locust, etc...

Your probably the most knowledged noob Ive seen.
I usually just call them Metalcore, but I use that to describe all bands mixing Metal and Hardcore genres. They do have obvious Grind influences, though a lot of the music reminds me of Cynic, Lethargy, Between the Buried and Me, Gorguts, and various other bands. I guess you could call it Grind Metal, seeing as how it mixes the intensity and vocal delivery of Grind with the tight, complex riffing and structure found in Metal.

I've heard TYAG, and, to be honest, they bore me. I'm not into Modern DM.

I am guilty of it but..

punk isn't a genre its a style ...and the same goes for any other sort of category of Rock...

A genre is a category for any sort of artistic expression with a distinct style. Punk is a genre.

If you live in the NY Metropolitan area, you should come to see Most Precious Blood, The Backup Plan, and the AKAs at CBGB's in a few weeks.

I wanted to go to the Converge show, but I realized I don't particularly like any of those bands, and it wasn't worth it.
