The Metalcore Discussion Thread

Darkest Hour · 05-20-2009, 11:07 PM

I always hear that metalcore bands aren't talented and they just use recycled riffs, but i don't agree with that logic. I don't play instruments, so i don't know what it takes to play them, but i still don't see how they don't have talent. I also don't get why the typical "true" metal head thinks that death metal and black metal are superior to everything else. To me it just sounds like a bunch of noise.

And another thing, i cannot stand how some people criticize metalcore vocalists. Seriously, what is wrong with the way they sound? How can someone criticize a metalcore vocalist when bands like cannibal corpse do nothing but make stupid growls? I heard so many times that howard jones is a terrible vocalists and i just laughed.

Oh, and how talented is metalcore?

Can an entire genre really be talented or not talented?
