You suck. I have (sadly) seen BMTH 4 times now, the toured with The Red Shore and IKTPQ. They are trash. The singer is a prick who is only in it for the $$$. The only good thing they have ever done is the start to their song Rawwwr. And I also hate the stupid scene c***s who think that they, and other bands like them who think they are hardcore.

No way. While I respect your opinion, Oli Sykes has accumulated a lot of followers and there are a lot of wannabee bands who only wish they were as good as bmth. I guess you have to just appreciate it for what it is, I for one love screamo music, and this just fits my style =]

He IS a follower, BMTH just jumped on the Metalcore bandwagon. There is nothing special about them. Besides accumulating a lot of fans he has also accumulated a lot of wealth. And that is why he is in the game. I do not appreciate them at all. They are not hardcore and definatly not thrash like their myspace says.

He's accumulated wealth? I doubt he's doing any better than most musicians with this style of music. The majority of the money comes from non stop touring which they've done. Although I'm not really a huge fan, I'm also not defending them. I'm just saying that nowadays for this sort of music, you'll hardly see a dime from the label. Merch and touring is where you'll see the change. The Berzerker started selling their records online exclusively because they realized that that is the only way to obtain near all your funds sold from your cd's. The labels will cheat you out of your sales and you're left maybe acquiring 3 to 8 percent of that money. The label will get their due, then the retailers, the distributors, etc. THEN you. So again, you believe he's gained wealth? What's your definition of wealth however?

If he wasn't in a band that is aimed at the massive post Nu Metal youth market then sure maybe it would see like he is in it for genuine reasons. But he is not. f*** the music they are cashing in on (metal, "hardcore") once stood against sh** like that, bands like Refused, Black Flag, Minor Threat, Rage Against The Machine (before they reformed)... oh and do you think that his clothing company would get anywhere if he wasn't the face of the band that encouraged kids to listen to deathcore bree breee sh** and go aww check [insert generic deathcore band here] out, they are br00tal. Th3ey have awesome breakdowns..

I saw BMTH when they played with IKTPQ and the Red Shore as well.... they just didn't do anything for me really.. and i've never heard so many screaming teenage girls when they were on stage... i almost thought for a second that i might've been at a Spice Girls concert or something

God forbid Deathcore be popular and that the trendy kids like something that borderlines "tr00" metal. Deathcore is one of the few fresh things going on in metal these days.
BMTH isn't a band that uses inhales religiously nor do they really claim to be brutal. I'm not sure how they're wealthy because the only deathcore band that really is would be Job For A Cowboy who doesn't even play their deathcore material. The other band close to that would be Suicide Silence but they're not so much deathcore as Slipknot with breakdowns and inhales.
People get a little too upset when their pure metal or pure hardcore is tampered with slightly. But deathcore is pretty much here to stay for a while so I'd say get used to it or quit b****ing.

I'll b**** as much as I want. I wasn't saying they are deathcore, I was saying that because of metalcore bands like them that deathcore is now popular. I wouldn't call JFAC deathcore anymore. Doom EP was a sh**ty deathcore disk but Genisis isn't by a long shot.

I disagree FocusShift - the only thing that pisses me off more than blatently false metal is false metal that is almost real metal. Deathcore maybe here to stay but like most metalheads who care about the boundaries, I'll take my arguments kicking and screaming into the grave.
16. writes:
What makes it false though man? Why are there boundaries there?
Is it breakdowns? Because plenty of bands that are considered tr00 death metal have used breakdowns for over a decade or two now.
Is it the clear production? I like being able to hear things clearly, Opeth's newest wouldn't have sounded as epic as it did if it had the production of their first cd.
Is their popularity or the fact that some hardcore and scene kids like them? Then god damn, what kind of back water elitist pseudo-nazi music world are we living in.
I'm fond of deathcore because of what it brings together from everything. It's better than what some "real" metal bands are doing right now.

I don't like that they just take stuff from other genres and mash them together for their own little move. I also hate the fact that 15 year old Hitler haircut scene kids try to tell me that BMTH are real hardcore and Sick Of It All are a "fake a$$ wannabe band". Come on man. Lets not forget that hardcore's reputation has been hurt just as much as metal's has because of deathcore. The Hitler haircuts seem to be the new thing that people picture when they hear "hardcore". Makes me oh soooo mad.

Well you're using the word Deathcore, so in doing so you're acknowledging a difference between it and other forms of metal. I don't consider deathcore true metal because it's a watered down version of death metal mixed with "hardcore". Not enough metal for me. The bands that are more metal than core are metal, but I don't consider any to be good.
True I can't give you an answer why I think deathcore isn't real metal without getting wordy - but in the same way you can't give me a reason why jazz is different to metal without getting all adjective-y.
I don't care about how the fans of the genre dress, or how popular or a band is, or how retarded their fans may be. Production, I prefer dryer styles but have nothing personally about different productions. I just care about the music.

For the most part, I just find deathcore extremely stagnant. Through the Eyes of the Dead and Bleeding Through are amazing examples of just how great the subgenre can be, but I haven't been able to find any other bands that push come close to doing it as well as them, or can really do it well at all. Winds of Plague can make a good song every now and then, and Job for a Cowboy and Whitechapel both have good vocals and a lot of potential, but often have boring instrumental work. I dunno, maybe I'm just not looking hard enough for more "good" deathcore.

I haven't heard these guys, but I certainly don't mind some good deathcore. DM got old for me pretty quickly. There are still some good DM bands I like of course, but I definitely like some thrash, mdm prog and core thrown in to mix things up. Salt the Wound has got to be the most impressive deathcore band I've ever heard. They are just insanely intense and heavy. I need to review them sometime when I get a breather...

Well, Thrash metal and Hardcore were both products of "genre mashing" back in the day, as was grind. If anything deathcore has helped spark a revitalization of death metal and hardcore techniques. I'm not sure how the death metal aspect is watered down to be really honest.
I see the artists trying to recreate the "tr00" genres as being the stagnant ones. A group like Warbringer might be good at giving that Slayer thrash feel that give purists their jollies but I don't prefer straight up thrash.
Deathcore is a genre that needs to find itself like Melodic Death Metal had to in the 90's. It took three crowning albums to give semblance to what that genre would become. I don't think those crowning albums have been created yet for deathcore.
As for the trendy kids, so what? Are you going to let pathetic slant haired kids ruin music for you? f*** that man, show them what being metal or hardcore is about. When a thrash riff hits start up that circle pit and knock those ninja's on their eyeliner wearing asses.

I will admit i have been liking some deathcore and thrashcore believe it or not. Bands like TTEOD, White Chapel, Year Of Desolation and Beneath The Massacre are constantly getting played as of late. To me if the breakdowns are placed in a song right I dont mind listening to it at all.

Scene kids straight up ruined deathcore, hardcore, grindcore; any type of heavy music for the rest of us. Its like we are a "scene" that is nearly starting out and emo kids straight up want to steal our music. WTF! Emo kids have emo music to listen to.The Deathcore and hardcore scene is too extreme for them anyways. They just take up space at shows. Sorry but its the truth. And BMTH has a very annoying constant sound to all of their songs like suicide silence. All their songs basically sound the same.

love them or hate them, they seem to be doing something right based solely on the discussion above. I could care less about them, but they had one of the largest crowds at Warped Tour. And their cover of "Eyeless" isn't too shabby.
And scene kids always ruin everything. That's what makes them scene kids.

how about if you find a band and you like them listen to them and dont argue about what genre it is. theres no point! dont you get it? people are going to call it whatever they think it is which will always be diffrent. and scene kids, how about you stop crying over "how they ruin everything" "oh i hate those eyeliner ninjas" and just listen to the music! and im pretty sure its metal heads that take up the space. scene kids are always in the pits (well most of them) but from the the shows i have been (mayhem fest for example) i was extremley dissappointed by metal heads or whatever. during bands like slipknot and the red chord and other metal bands alike there wasnt a single pit. at warped i always see all the scene kids up front getting into the music and screaming thier lungs out. isnt that what musics about? and i always see the metal heads in the back just sitting there smoking pot and whatnot. Listen to what you want but stop arguing about the genre. everyone has opinions and it will always be diffrent unless a book of genre laws that specify what a band must or must not have to be a certain genre. Now bring me the horizon. i will say i like them, but it is true about the whole screaming girls thing. all of them love oli and thats why they are there. get over it. you like or hate them. music is very opinionated and for people to say oh that band sucks or that bands good is stupid. genres are stupid because some poeple dont understand which is which and they claim bands to be this and that and there are so many diffrent sub genres off of main genres that its impossible to argue over.

That bullsh** - the only people who complain about genres either like bands that get put into slandered genres or don't know anything about music.
Genres are short descriptions of bands to give someone an idea of the music they play. Sure, not all bands (say Tool or Bathory) can fit into one word so we either write a little sentence or just concatenate some genres together.
I'm sure the whiners out there would like us to have some amorphous blob of bands we lump together but what next, I can't say I like metal because using 'metal' would put the bands I listen to in a box?
The follow sentence is exactly why we need genres
Metalhead1: "Hey man, I'm really into metal, you should check out this metal band!"
Metalhead2: "Sweet, I love metal I will check them ou.... wait wtf this is Disturbed!?"
Instead of
Metalhead1: "Hey man, I'm really into metal, mainly nu-metal - you should check out this band!"
Metalhead2: "f*** that nu-metal is lame, listen to some Morbid Angel"

^Agreed. I don't think putting things into genres really hurts. Its a system that helps people judge on a quick basis if they'll probably have an interest in a band or not. And there's always exceptions in genres.
The major problem is people who don't usually associate with certain genres that they don't like usually just throw everything they don't like into that category and assume everything from that genre is something they won't like.
33. writes:
^ Agreed on the problem. I typically don't like thrash, but Skeletonwitch, who has thrash elements (not a key feature, but they're there) I find quite interesting. Or take Scar Symmetry. They're a fairly new way of seeing MDM, so someone who typically dislikes MDM might find Scar Symmetry fascinating.

BMTH is trash, I went to warped tour just to go to darien lake really and see set your goals. But I must say the worst thing was seeing coontail b****es with teased hair not moshing but jumping up and down, and seeing them push pit was the worst. They said BMTH is a straightedge and I had to laugh. BMTH is pretty much a joke, in my eyes at least.
