Is grindcore metal?[views:7390][posts:66]______________________________ [Dec 31,2006 7:45pm - Lamp ""] GoatCatalyst said:i just saw the name of this thread and the number of hits/replies it's gotten... not even going to bother reading through this... but if you're not quite sure if human remains or nasum are metal... there's this crazy shit called 'pussy' out there... you probably won't believe me, but it's almost as cool as debating sub-tard topics on an academic level in the name of metal Yeah, I agree! Fuck everyone who has a hobby that interests and engages them! They're all just a bunch of faggots who will never accomplish anything besides being happy with who they are! The key to living a really awesome life is to put your happiness in the hands of other people who's minds you can't read and base your own satisfaction on how good you are at being a manipulative jackass and getting them to sleep with you! :spineyes: |

| _______________________________________ [Jan 1,2007 4:43am - Dark_violinist ""] dickweed said:grindcore is not metal, because if it was it would be called METAL. grindcore = blast beats metal = solos no comprimise. i agree with goatcatalyst, go find some kunts, boyz. O.K. I see your point. But where do bands that have both blast beats and solos in their music fall? |

| ____________________________________________ [Jan 1,2007 2:18pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] as someone already said, grindcore is not metal, it is grindcore. it is definitely arguable that it can be metal, just as it is arguable that it is hardcore. it is inevitable over time that new genres are created, as much as many people hate hearing all sorts of new genres being created left and right (especially since most of them are fucking retarded). many different grind bands have varied influences and elements of various styles, which is really what makes grind a separate genre all together. as time passes, these influences and elements are stretched and substituted all over the place, which is why some grind bands sound more like metal than punk or hardcore, and vice versa. one of the best aspects of grind is that there really aren't many set rules. there is a formula to sound like a punk band, a formula for a hardcore band, a formula for a death metal band, etc. etc., but there are many possibilities for grind since it was conceived as an amalgamation of styles. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 1,2007 2:43pm - Dark_violinist ""] I think instead of new genres, we need the ones that are there defined into more specifics. Wikipedia is actually trying to do this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_heavy_metal_genres I think that if the public in general checks out the list of definitions they've compiled, everyone would be on the same page. Right now you have people pointing the finger and calling bands _____ genre without having any idea what that genre is(guilty myself), and you have bands who think they are genres that they are clearly not. Example: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...user.viewprofile&friendID=108009559 Neither country, christian nor black metal. |
| ________________________________________________ [Jan 1,2007 2:58pm - EAT_A_BAG_OF_DEAD_DICKS ""] Grindcore is it's own genre with hardcore and death metal roots.Who cares about genres anymore?Everything is so crossed over at this point anyways. |

| _____________________________ [Jan 1,2007 4:31pm - Lamp ""] It's kind of weird too that there's so much elitism in grind, I guess grindy dudes really hate scene kids. Or scene drama. But then again, I could easily do without scene drama. There's a lot of unity in that one little scene, seeing as the bands that play that style of music cover a lot of ground lyrically, there's no self-righteous crap, no high school shit, just aural annihilation. |
