You never said that this would be easy,
So go on live,
You never said that this would be easy,
So go on live.

WOOOOOO!

This is the best part of the message,
And it only took one.

We live for what He's worth,
And that's more than you'll know.
He died for what He loved,
And what he loved was you.

I'll wait for you,
You know I'll wait for you,
I'll wait for you,
You know I'll wait for you.

You never said that this would be easy,
So go on live,
You never said that this would be easy,
So go on live.

Bow your head,
Go on live.

This is the time to let yourself go,
Lord pick me off the ground,
You never said this would be simple,
So pull me in and turn around.

so they're xtian too? hoo boy.

That explains a lot, actually.

Jesus ruins everything.

yeah, the second I saw this, I was like, "these guys have GOT to be christian!" I mean, aren't all of these bands?

speaking of which, anyone ever watch this?

I've always thought somebody should make a documentary about christian rock, so I'll have to check that one out. one of the most bizarre trends in recent times, imo.

it's like a self-sustained little mini universe that I know almost nothing about! that produces CRABCORE BANDS.

they are just pandering to ILM now:

<333 goofy post-hardcore bands

This is fascinating, no doubt. The younger generation's insatiable quest for energy (and extremity) now has a soundtrack.

The most instantly recognizable signifier of a band within the crabcore oeuvre is the presence of an Arch Cancerped (literally translated; "chief crabwalker"). The Arch Cancerped (or ACP) is an individual member of the band whose duty it is to set the speed, intensity, and depth of the crabwalk in a given piece of music. Much like the conductor of a symphony orchestra. Typically the ACP wears a black t-shirt and has a dyed-black sideways haircut.

Other moves available to crabcore players include:

* The "Richardson Richardson"
* "Krinking"
* The "Beaver Bounce"
* The "Krunkle Kick"
* The "Shrimp & White Wine"
* The "Dirty Hamper"
* The "Pestal Press"

Another somewhat controversial move has gained a foothold in crabcore circles recently, which sees the player simply standing in one spot and running in place. No one understands this move. No one. Its sheer absurdity has kept it from getting an official name. The fact that the running-in-place move appeared at the same time as the crabwalk, and no-one involved in the scene has had time to discuss this move speaks volumes for the influential nature of the crabwalk. The running in place move usually is reserved to the screamer of the band, that is until the surprise techno break down. Upon this interlude all band members may participate in a crabcore run in place marathon.

we should just post the entire entry here before it's jettisoned

can't stop loling @ Arch Cancerped

Arch Cancerped

you know who I feel bad for in all this? brokencyde. it's like they were totally obliterated in the wake of attack attack's douchenozzle jetstream.

you guys can't even be bothered to mock them anymore! that hurts! at least throw them a pity fuck or something.

wait, what, there is actually a band called Devil Wears Prada? are you fucking kidding me?

when they get down low it's the aural equivalent of truck balls

I'd like to think they're singing about Stick Stickley and not Jesus

they'd just call the song "Jesus" if it was about him, obv

duh!!!

cmon yall

it's not a surprise techno breakdown if it happens in every song wtf

i showed my weedman this video yesterday and he leaked a little pee laughing, swear to jesus stick stickly

the grauniad, on the crabcore case. (first major-media use of "crabcore"?)

did ILM coin "crabcore?"

omg

omg omg omg

didn't am0n make those gifs? so did 'we' roll the guardian or what?

didn't someone on this thread claim tim & eric involvement? in the wiki page at least?

i have many questions

did ILM coin "crabcore?"

no

The discussion at Wikipedia over the Crabcore page is a must read:

PRESERVE This is legit. People trying to shut down Crabcore is the same as when they were trying to shut down "Rock N Roll" back in the day.

also i didn't make the gifs they're from here

PRESERVE It really helped me with an essay, others may lose this tool if close-mindedness deletes!

Oh my god my friend Eric just started doing the Zoidberg crab dance in response to what these guitarists are doing with that wide legged fucking whatever it is and it all clicked for me, in that this is exactly the method in which zoidberg tries to be cool.

Hmmm (at the grauniad):

Crabcore is a new meme created by the 4chan /b/tards and /mu/tants - nothing more. Like every meme they force, other morons slowly latch onto it. I grantee they are having an orgasm right now because some rather famous music blog has latched onto it and wrote an entry about it.

tl;dr version
Crabcore is a forced joke by 'anonymous'.

crabcore is the future. no delete
