Quoting from last.fm's genre profile, this sums it up nicely:

"...In other words, post-hardcore takes the energy and values of hardcore punk and applies them to art rock and noise rock."

"Post-hardcore developed due to not only the stylistic limitations of hardcore punk, but also as an effort directly alienate the boorish, violent culture that had grown around hardcore punk much to the ire of the influential figures."

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
