Worst Things About Modern Metalcore
I just don't see how it should be on metal. Metal used to take itself seriously, it was never a joke. They a lyrical themes about death, anarchy, war and its effects on the human population and real world problems. But with modern metalcore, it's like, 'MY GIRLFRIEND BROKE UP WITH ME *insert generic breakdown here*"
We've all been there before, when you and a different opinion to a twelve year old girl with a stupid haircut and they say "BLACK VEIL BRIDES SAVED MY LIFE" among other stupid things.
They basically are the reason they killed true metalcore, now it's just posercore and the worst part they call them metal bands when they aren't even close to metal.
They ruin the genre
Looks like epileptics trying to swim.
Same thing with pop music.
Bands like We Came as Romans and Sleeping with Sirens seem to be referred to as metalcore but in reality, they sound like pop punk.
You know, the stage move where they have their legs wide open and try to play their guitar as low as possible. Look at the video to "Stick Stickly" by Attack Attack! And you'll see what I mean.
With some bands, techno can fit very well with bands such as Scar Symmetry and Dark Tranquility. But with this, it can just ruin the experience. For example, in "Smokahontas" by Attack Attack!, I thought it was going just fine, that was until the damn techno part! You had one thing going and you just blew it!
All right partner! Keep on chuggin baby! You know what time it is! *insert generic breakdown*
Come on, Whitechapel had a guitar solo in one song.
Depends on how annoying the emo is. This has nothing to do with the genre
No explanation needed
You know, those fake Emo peeps who actually like Barbie but keep it a secret because they are hardcore! by the way I'm not saying there is anything wrong with liking Barbie and stuff, it's just annoying when people try and hide it and act the opposite of who they truly are. Be yourself.
