I've argued this a lot with RAR, but scene kids, the majority of those bands fans, are bastardizing little ****s, and according to Ian, happen to be extremely concentrated in his area.
I dislike scene kids just as much as him (to my knowledge), however, I am willing to listen to their music still (even if they cater to the little bitches sometimes).

They definitely are swarming to this genre. Furthermore, they feel it's necessary to tag everything from Despised Icon to Killwhitneydead as grindcore, thinking it gives them 'br00tal' scene cred. Ninety-percent of them have never heard of Napalm Death, or Discordance Axis; they are merely jumping on a bandwagon.

Trust me, you can't really dance to tech grind. I went to a See You Next Tuesday show and the kids didn't know what to do. When they finally played Clawhammer, no one recognized the breakdown when it came because they're too used to generic Bury Your Dead breakdowns.
Who would you say pioneered metalcore?
