The Skronkman Cometh

many a time have i been asked 'but mort., what does it to mean to skronk?', and this list aims to answer that very questiont through a series of examples (but one explanation is that if boring metalcore goes dun-dun-wah-wah, skronk goes SKRONKSKRANK_WAH_WAH) (although it should be noted metalcore is not the only skronkin genre just a good ground for it)
1Unsane
Scattered, Smothered & Covered
