Big Four Bands Thread Round 19: Gothic Rock

There's some humour in Frown calling other people hipsters.

I see hipsters as fake weirdos. I'm the guy they try to be.

I see hipsters as guys who play the guitar with a screw driver and defend 4'33.

Sounds like something a hipster would say.

OK, it's totally thrash. Post-hardcore, then thrash. Since we've already got the next one decided so early, do we wanna take the next couple days to take on what's coming after thrash?

Round 11: Post-Hardcore
12: Thrash Metal
13: ???

Country

JGuy Grungeman · 09-13-2016, 04:33 PM

This is a good option. We could use a country one. I wanted to go with somthing softer after we play two weeks of heavy music, anyway.

3. Popularity

And with just that one album, it might have easily gotten in top punk lists even after 1977. Another good example is Refused and their third album, which got seriously good reviews. Refused reviews. Heh. But their first two were pretty meh in terms of all three criterion I mentioned.

Their influence and popularity are largely because of their trailblazer status. I love Nevermind the Bollocks, but in a vacuum it would not make them a Big Four band.

Classical (period) music

Or just classical music in general if the period is too nerdy for you guys.
