Brokencyde?!?! Crunkcore?!?!?!

"Metal mixed with Reggaeton".

¿Remember Huecco? From Sugarless. He actually does metal reggaeton.

A friend of mine also told me she heard a "Flamenco Mix" of Xepher. Yes, Xepher, the Beatmania/DDR song.

Flamenco mixes of stuff can be cool , dude! I dont get why we all spaniards hate so much on flamenco

"screamo" is just a giant catch-all term for any music with a harsh vocal style, don'tcha know?

i understand that's what it's been reduced to now, which i think is totally dumb. when i used the term, i would be describing bands like saetia, you and i, usurp synapse, portraits of past, love lost but not forgotten, pg99, mara'akate, i am the resurrection, off minor, and to a lesser extent in/humanity, reversal of man, and universal order of armageddon. now when i hear the 16-year-old high school kids i work with referring to bullshit like this as "screamo" it blows my mind.

"screamo" has always been a really stupid, stupid term anyway. now it's just even stupider.

Emo, postcore, punk and enything ending in -billy are prostitute words now too. You're not alone

all electronic music is "techno"

I wish this band would fucking fall off the face of the earth. how anyone even likes them is beyond me. I try to be open minded about music but this is just an abomination

If you have lots of scene-cred you can use "skramz" instead of screamo.

Brokencyde is just....i can't even get started. However, I did watch Pink Eyes (the lead singer of fucked up) do a hilarious almost patronizing interview with them. Turns out they are a "DIY" band to the extent they can be. The only thing they do DIY is drive themselves around. Their label pays everything else.

2 Years ago on tour I played with a band called "Divide the Sky" in Chicago and it might've been the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life. Chrisitan Crabcore (which you should look up because it's in many respects worse than crunkcore.



You guessed it. They look like crabs when they play. Some bands use like Attack Attack use Autotune and crazy modulators for the singer who can't sing and then some loser who tries to scream like he's in a black metal band but doesn't have the chops to do it. Not to mention they all dance in unison and run around like morons to watered down genre blending crap.

I showed my students this video earlier this year. It is a bit outdated perhaps, but the stuff on music nicely explains why a group like this exists at all, why people are attracted to it, and why I wouldn't be surprised if they soon got a contract from a major label:

Reading is a whole different experience than live at a Hookah bar at 2am in the mid west. My life was forever changed.

Are you sure they aren't on a pretty big label already? I've seen their cds in Best Buy.

I don't actually know who Huecco is, sorry. I may be too judgamental but after the little I heard of it, it was not a good idea.

Well the problem is not that it's a flamenco mix, the problem is that it's a flamenco remix of that song. It just can't work.

@dsheim

Aren't those the guys from "Fucking magnets, how do they work"?
