11.14.19 | Put at least two major arpeggio guitar sweeps on the album plz
And can you have a part that is in 5/4 for at least a measure or two. |
madrigal30
11.14.19 | 5/4 is ingrained in me, because i cover mabu by PUP in my other band. idk about sweeps bc i Can't Play Good Guitar but i can try |
budgie
11.14.19 | 3 is a 0/10
(sorry madrigal) |
TheSupernatural
11.14.19 | i dont like high pitched cleans nor guttural screams. the best hardcore is a mix of screaming and shouting. whatever you do, make it passionate as fuck. youre not there to cash in on trendy teens trying to be edgy, youre there because you want to youve got a god damn point to make.
i also have bad taste so dont listen to me, but if you do, thats what i say |
TheMightyScoop
11.15.19 | cheesy cleans, extremely simple breakdowns, riffs that sound half muted, basically any band in modern hardcore.
i'd recommend trying to get your hands on an HM2 pedal to get the old school buzzsaw guitar sound. make the bass tone as distinct and loud as possible and make the drums sound as organic as possible too.
basically if you can make your record sound like integrity's those who fear tomorrow or earth crisis' destroy the machines, i'll make it aoty |

JohnnyoftheWell
11.15.19 | 5/4 is punk as fuck split into two groups of 4 with a quaver rest in between each and played flat-handed |

11.15.19 | the way i see this project is Knocked Loose and Cancer Bats having a child and giving it to Refused to raise before it goes off and marries SeeYouSpaceCowboy |
MELONADE13
11.15.19 | I hate when 1. bands draw influence from other bands, and 2. when bands cant write breakdowns |
MELONADE13
11.15.19 | "No salsa interludes

fuck yourself |
madrigal30
11.15.19 | influence is unavoidable. yr setting yrself up to just hate music dawg |
DopeFiend
11.15.19 | make your record sound like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xt7JSI9y46g |
Demon of the Fall
11.15.19 | Lots of melody, clean choruses, gang vox, write it all in one time signature for cohesion - don’t wanna confuse your fans. Breakdowns everywhere, the more the better. Write the whole album about things you’ve experienced, especially stuff about where you live, that really pulls on those heartstrings. Emotion is paramount. Definitely add synths, lots of them, maybe some strings and pull out a kazoo or something else radically cool like that.
You will nail it! |
gschwen
11.15.19 | I wanna hear more about partying and less about personal problems
No cleans, no whining, no politics, no girls, no straight edge
More beer funnels, surf boards, butt chugging, open palm slaps to the rear end
Ease up on the homosexuality but if there is some horsing around, baseball locker room rules apply
Spin kicks |
DopeFiend
11.16.19 | hxc about partying sounds fucking terrible. straight edge all the way |
Deathconscious
11.16.19 | straight edge is cringe. |
madrigal30
11.16.19 | no edge in this house. party hardcore doesn't sound like a terrible idea but i need muh political angst. also HEY HEY HEY IF WE'RE GOING THERE, FULL HOMO |
DopeFiend
11.17.19 | "straight edge is cringe."
nope |
TheMightyScoop
11.17.19 | how is encouraging people to not poison themselves with drugs and alcohol a bad thing? |
ian b
11.17.19 | me. you don't want me in your hardcore. therefore, i am involuntarily joining your band effective immediately and theres nothing u can do sorry |
Trebor.
11.17.19 | LET'S OPEN UP THIS PIT |
Deathconscious
11.17.19 | because you might as well write songs about eating all your greens and not having too much sugar too. sure, the lifestyle is respectable and its no skin off my ass. but why do i want to hear you yelling about your diet and judging other people who dont share it? why would you go with that of all things to be your and your band's whole identity? write songs about brushing your teeth three times per day day rather than twice while youre at it, its just as interesting.
and most people can handle having a drink now and then, which isnt "poisoning" yourself. if you want to totally abstain thats fine, but being SxE is a dumb thing to rep. |
MELONADE13
11.17.19 | congrats, you missed the entire point of what straight edge means to so many people |
MELONADE13
11.17.19 | I am the least straight edge person on the fucking planet but it's so much more than the superficial dumb bullshit people nitpick it for apparently being |
MELONADE13
11.17.19 | "yr setting yrself up to just hate music dawg"
yes. I hate music. you are correct. |
YakNips
11.17.19 | women |
Deathconscious
11.17.19 | Nah, i get it. I had a hardcore phase, ive liked some SxE bands. Theyre not all shit. Thats just how i see it now though.
Like imagine being in your 40s and still calling yourself straight edge. |
MELONADE13
11.17.19 | if you got it, you wouldn't be talking about it with such a reductionist mindset, point blank |
Deathconscious
11.17.19 | Then explain it to me? |
TheMightyScoop
11.17.19 | since when did straight edge music talk about diet and brushing teeth? bands like earth crisis, fugazi, have heart, etc don't mention anything even close to that. maybe you should actually listen to some straight edge bands before you spout off about something you know nothing about. |
TheMightyScoop
11.17.19 | also Ian MacKaye is 57, still identifies as straight edge, and he is one of the most respected names in punk history. not sure why you're associating straight edge with some sort of immaturity |
Deathconscious
11.17.19 | "since when did straight edge music talk about diet and brushing teeth?"
lol read my comment again, thats not what i said.
"maybe you should actually listen to some straight edge bands before you spout off about something you know nothing about."
maybe you should read all of my comments, and actually comprehend them before replying. |

11.18.19 | 90s straight edge was fucking cringe lets be real here.

It's good to maintain a healthy drug free lifestyle and all, which is what the whole movement was/is meant to represent, but here's no denying that for a while militant sxe was a thing and, perhaps worse, a million mediocre chugcore earth crisis rips came out of it

ArsMoriendi
11.18.19 | "what don't you wanna hear in hardcore"
Zero whiny vocals would be nice
Also, all the hardcore/posthardcore I like is fused with noise rock, so more distortion, less clean guitar |
Frippertronics
11.18.19 | sounds horrible |
Snake.
11.18.19 | idc just don't write anything fash pls |
ArsMoriendi
11.18.19 | @Fripp: I suppose you wouldn't like The Jesus Lizard then? I pretty much just described them lol |
Frippertronics
11.18.19 | I'm a bit split on them
kinda like them but also never have the desire to listen to them |
oltnabrick
11.18.19 | idc just don't write anything anti-fash pls

madrigal30
11.18.19 | i hate fascists. that will probably be a topic. sorry Oltna. also, jesus lizard is dope |
