Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes
 

Not really into punk/hardcore anymore (young man's game) but the former Gallows singer has formed a new band.

and the one good thing about Frank Carter is ...that his music is always poser free!

Poser free...

I'm not entirely sure about that. Yeah, I like Gallows but I feel like their music catered a little closer to the fashioncore generation than I'm comfortable with.

Sigh always a critic. I think Grey Britain was the rawest and best hardcore album of the 00's.

I never noticed a any fashion victims in the band, though I have always been privy to fashion it goes hand in hand with rock n roll. It's called stylin and I like it!

By posers I mean wimpy middle class bands like this....



Why are they all jumping up and down in unison? They look like bunny rabbits.

I'm talking more about the lind of people they appealed to. Same kind of people who liked From First to Last or The Used, ya know: dark emo-poppers/fashioncore. Great group, but you know.

I am to old to be cool now, so I have no idea who From First to Last is, but I looked them up, and no way! Not even the same genre of music as Gallows.

I don't mind the fashion, that's all been there from the start of the original punk and goth movement. I just hate the wimpy music, blah! Sid Vicious is probably rolling in his grave.

the guys in Skinny Puppy were fashion victims, but at least they looked supercool and were poser free!

Oh that's nothing. British bands have always been more fashion latent, in general Europeans have better fashion sense than over here, its in their culture.

You want the anti fashion go American then, just be happy that real hardcore bands can still survive, cause music industry's pretty much dead.

It's not so much the fashion that bothers me than the pretentiousness that cones with it.

But again, I don't hate Gallows. They're a decent band. I can look past the hype and the image because in the end it's just good music.

Yup. Orchestra of Wolves and Grey Britain were excellent albums. Like most former Gallows fans I'm glad he seems to have got himself together after his dabbling with Pure Love.

Definitely going to try and catch these in the next few months, at the very least it'll be energetic.
