If yes to either of those, then what makes them hardcore?

Like Monkey said, it's a genre. It's really a mix between metal and punk. It's characterized by quick drum beats, with alot of bass pedal, strategically placed breakdowns (for maximum awesome), and lead singers who like to bloody their vocal chords.

Breg, haven't had a chance to listen to any of the new MPB CD, but I have been wanting to.

Zaust, I am damn intelligent!

Tecno, S'okay.

Traxer, ditch that crap and listen to some real music. Start with the bands listed above.

Gary posts what he wants, when he wants. He is just that cool.

Older hatebreed is better.. pick up "Under the Knife" if you don't have it... old school.


Seriously though, if you haven't heard of Converge... check them out. They gotta be the BEST band I've heard in a long time. New album "You Fail Me" comes out this year (September or so as I heard last time I saw them).

albatross and antithesis is awesome by converge ..

-Slayer (mainstream now but they still do good, as long as they stay away from thier NEW stuff)

-Decide
-Dying Fetus
-Cannable Corpse (possably selling out soon though, read a very wierd interview in Metal Maniacs a while ago)

You decsribed that so much better than me Kai

And Opeth is Norwegain Death Metal; Not hardcore

Actually there is a miniscule chance my cousin's band may open for them

[TecnoRobo]

ahh but there is some really good norweigian death metal. Man there is this one awesome band but i can't think of their name thats norweigian death metal. Oh well.

Theres some pretty good grindcore out there too if you find the right stuff but some if it is just hard on the ears to listen to.

Man i miss mp3.com

argh

[Ultimator]

Backstreet Boys (the old stuff, of course)

rawk on beerotch

[grw4w34]

Cannibal Corpse is awsome for when im pissed or need to get pumped. I dont know if they are considered to be this type of music, but check out Turbonegro. They were on viva la bam, and they play the opening song to wildboys. There is a local band called Hack Saw To The Throat who are awesome. Another good local one is RU36.

[TecnoRobo]

alright heres the deal- if you want to hear some hardcore if you havent before, or want to check out some bands or songs i'll send a song to you through aim sometime. Here are some of the cds i have

F.A.T.A (two cds)
As i lay dying
Across five aprils
Saved by grace
Beloved (absolute favorite right now)
The beautiful mistake (not really hardcore but still dang good anyway)

aim- iwrk4mrgoodcents

[gimp]

Skinless
Dying Fetus
cattle decapitation
lamb of god
mastadon
six feet under
cannibal corpse
chimaira


Those are the bands I'm into right now. I'm afraid to listen to anything new cause I'll buy their cd and I have no cash.

*edit - whoops, I forgot 'the red chord'

Oh man, Converge is turning into a religion for me. Can't wait for You Fail Me, or for them to come around here soon. Also an Avenged Sevenfold fan (God I hope Warner Bros doesn't ruin them) and enjoy some Zao and Shai Hulud.

Don't know if they were mentioned: Between the Buried and Me

[Mag_SEAL-6]

no offense to anyone who likes Cradle of Filth, but for the love of god how can you like them? Seriously? The singers' pig squeels don't pass for singing in my book. Plus, they play panzy riffs and put PRS guitars to shame. And Cannibal Corpse? That guy shouldn't have a voice box anymore after all of that caveman grunting. Their stage performance is a just a blur of hair. If you guys like them, that's cool, but I personally don't think they have a lot of talent. Maybe listening to them to get pumped or work off some anger is cool, put I personally prefer hatebreed, etc. for that. Anyway, that's just me 2 cents.

[breg]

Has anyone ever heard of How It Ends or Commit Suicide? Both those bands are pretty bad arse.
Death Metal, well some of it is cool. But, I really have a hard time getting into it.

[trevorjk]
