Good news for some of you[views:8061][posts:103]________________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:23am - Joe/NotCommon ""] I talked to Shred and he said I can get more shows in the future at O'Brien's Pub, though I will still attempt to book at more and more venues all over eastern Massachusetts.. I have some other ideas that I have been sharing with people I've talked to since I heard about the Block closing, and though that is still by far my favorite club ever, I promised that I will continue to block metalcore at every turn. So to sum this all up: BOOYA! |

| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:30am - the_reverend ""] caveat: "metalcore" being defined arbitrarily. bands that joe likes = not metalcore. bands that joe doesn't like = metalcore. since Kevorkians Angels are influenced by 80's metal-core |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:34am - dirteecrayon ""] "good news for some of you" ??? why isn't good news for everyone stop being immature |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:35am - Josh_Martin ""] There was no metalcore in the 80's. There was crossover. DRI, SOD, and the Accused have nothing to do with gay shit like the Dillenger Escape Plan and Converge. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:37am - RustedAngel ""] dillinger escape plan is not metalcore. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:43am - dirteecrayon ""] can someone please define metalcore? |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:47am - dirteecrayon ""] http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Metalcore Spawned sometime during the 90's, metalcore is as the name divulges a more metallic offshoot of classic hardcore punk, in particular the kind made popular during the 80's by bands such as Minor Threat, the Bad Brains and so on. |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 11:52am - dreadkill ""] when i think of real hardcore, i think of sick of it all and bands like that. more punk than metal. |

| ________________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 12:07pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] Josh is correct, cross-over stuff is not the same as the metalcore genre. If I am wrong about what I consider metalcore, then most people I know are just as wrong as me, and all of it sucks. |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 12:07pm - dreadkill ""] the bands who don't like joe are probably the metalcore bands who suck up to everyone on the waaf boards. |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 12:08pm - dreadkill ""] and by metalcore, i don't mean crossover, i mean the stuff that is popular now and the nu metal bands who are crossing over to it. |

| ________________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 12:10pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] Cross over nu-metal/metalcore is the worst shit out there. And I do think I know why bands hate me, because I don't kiss up to everyone that I don't like and I speak my mind regardless of who might hear it (or read it). I am not going to cater to bands I want nothing to do with, so let them hate me. |

I call bullshit on that definition. No metalcore band sounds anything at all like Minor Threat or Bad Brains (Bad Brains when they were good anyways, I don't really like anything after Rock for Light. If you want to go around saying you're very influenced by Quickness I'll point you in the general direction of the Ramrod) |

If you were bashing shit like Atreyu, ect, then I might agree with you. interesting, I didn't know wearing a black shirt and black pants was emo? I guess all metal kids are emo as well... or is he emo because the clothes he wears actually fit him and are not 4x too big? [img] |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:03pm - RustedAngel ""] 3XXXL Iced Earth Shirt = Tr00 Metal. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:05pm - Josh_Martin ""] It's the haircut. And they wear those gas station attendant jackets even though they don't work at a gas station. That bugs the shit out of me. I like grind that sounds like Scum. DEP sound like a bunch of Berklee fags who decided to play grind. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:07pm - the_reverend ""] so... you are opposed mostly to fashion and not to music. though your DEP "review" is pretty acurate.. if you also say "and on the new record try to sound like mr. bungle meets NIN" |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:08pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] DES is metalcore, the same old boring shit played in annoying time sequences. EMO: [img] |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:09pm - Josh_Martin ""] I am opposed to people ironically dressing like they work at a gas station. I haven't heard the new DEP and I hope I never have to. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:10pm - RustedAngel ""] so what, I don't blame them for not wanting long hair, it's a pain in the fuckin ass. Sometimes I wonder why I still have it. hahaha. Nah, I just don't like how I look with short hair. you say someones a fag cause they were a 'gas station' jacket? wtf? Maybe they don't want to sound like scum grind... I bet the bands that play 'scum' grind couldn't keep up with DEP if they tried. Either way, they aren't fags just because they don't wear gigantic metal shirts and have long hair. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:11pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] They are metalcore. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:12pm - RustedAngel ""] DEP doesn't have any generic breakdowns, so how can they be classified as metalcore? I don't hear any melodic in flames riffs either. |

You're right about why they're not fags. However you seem to be completely missing the point about why they are fags. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:13pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] We could argue about genre classifying them all day, but they suck and I cannot waste my time. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:14pm - Josh_Martin ""] Just look at Joe's picture. If that doesn't scream "plug my ass with an emo cork before all the faggotry leaks out of me" I don't know what does. |

| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:15pm - Josh_Martin ""] Espcecially the guy on the right. Aren't they from New Jersey? I wonder how many times he's been gay bashed. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:17pm - Josh_Martin ""] Joe/NotCommon said:We could argue about genre classifying them all day, but they suck and I cannot waste my time. Unfortunately, I have tons of time to waste. Calling bands gay at work is more fun than actually working. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:17pm - RustedAngel ""] Everyone is gay, The network are fags cause they don't dress metal I g uess, My bassist wears white shirts and Ska Doc Martens... he's a fag too. hahahahaha I guess I'm a fag too cause I wear jeans sometimes and sneakers. poop rules! |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:17pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] They really do sound like every other band they look like, but the only difference is they play in really annoying time sequences, which makes them even more boring and/or horrible. I don't care how talented it makes them, some people always leave fun and originality out of the talent equation. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:18pm - RustedAngel ""] Sometimes I wear boxer shorts, I guess that's gay? Am I allowed to wear sunglasses? I guess wearing a coat in the winter time is right out too? shit I'm going to freeze. |
| _________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:19pm - Terence ""] yeah Im a fag too cause im banned from Boston, supposedly. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:19pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] You are missing the point that all the bands who dress that way all are shitty. All of them. So making fun of how they ALL dress is a true statement about the music too. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:20pm - Josh_Martin ""] DEP could look like Slayer circa 1986 and their music would still be gay as fuck. Slayer could dress in drag and buttfuck each other all day long but if they still put out Reign in Blood they'd never be gay. |

| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:21pm - RustedAngel ""] Is taking a shower gay too? What about brushing my teeth? am I not metal because I go to the dentist? Am I allowed to take advil for headaches? Can I use Quilted paper towels, or is that not metal either? |

Just as long as your band doesn't sound like a bunch of faggots like DEP. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:23pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] Who in metal has bad hygeine? I certainly do not. Those guys look as if they have not washed their hair in years, thats bad hygeine. You aren't making any sense with your replies Thomas. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:24pm - Josh_Martin ""] Since Mr. Angel doesn't seem to get it. I'll spell it out. If your music is gay, then anything you do is gay too. If your music rocks, then you get a whole lot of leeway. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:25pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] Josh summed it perfectly. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:26pm - the_reverend ""] man.. I just read a lot and I've got no clue what this thread is about anymore. |

Why would I want to fight the singer of DEP? If I had to fight every band I think is gay all I would ever do is fight 24/7. Besides, the only reason I'm ragging on them so much is because you obviously really really like them. This is the most fun I've had at work in months. (although that doesn't mean I was "just kidding" about anything) Also I don't forsee a situation where I would be in the same room as him. He probably thinks my band is as bad as I think his is.

| _______________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 1:55pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] Not necesarilly. I am working on moving that. I might have to drop a band from the bill, depending on the club, since we had 5 bands. Cryptic Warning got added last, so if it comes to it, I guess I will drop them. |

I guess not. I gave my opinion on a gay band, you gave your opinion on a gay band. I'd bet though, if we had a contest on this board of old school grind vs gay DEP "grind" that my side would win. I don't why that matters but you seem to think it does. Weren't you the guy who thought Macabre wasn't a fit replacement for Gayder? I think you were in the minority on that one. Maybe you should go to a different board where people care more about technicality than just kicking ass. BTW I think Macabre are proof that you can be really good at your instrument and still not sound like a band full of gaylords. |

I like DEP, so if they are "gay" cause they make "gay" music, that i like ("gay") maybe i am gay, a couple other of my favorite bands are, suffoctaion, deeds of flesh, origin,cannibal,gorgasm etc. So if someone dont like those bands, like say you think deeds is "gay"(HA) , but i like deeds so therfore i am gay. This sums just about everything in life, no wonder Don Decker refers to many things as being "gay" Getting back to this comment ....>"To me technical means "I can't write a good riff so I'll just play something really gay and complicated that will impress other fags just like me" I allways thought of technical (in my playing that is) as things that are a challenge to play or pulloff or involve heavy concentration. For example in Anoxia, i have riffs that are like a fucking cunt to play(physically) then there are riffs that are no problem to play. What makes a technical riff gay? Did i write this riff solely on being Tech cause ...>"I can't write a good riff so I'll just play something really gay and complicated that will impress other fags just like me". yeeeaaaahhhh im gay!!!!! For example what i find TECH to play may be pretty standard to rustedangel. So, who would that make "gayer" ??? If hes more "techinally gay" than me , that makes him supreme gay ! Or the bottom line is we are both gay. I had a lot of laughs of this thread, i think ill pack another one and re-read. Cheers:duffbeer: |

| ___________________________________ [Oct 14,2004 7:21pm - Dissector ""] I thought all of those bands from the 80s were called crossover. Either that or they were just called hardcore or thrash. But metalcore? |
