A new dawn in terror- Brokencyde are surpassed by Attack Attack!'s "Stick Stickly" and the emergence of CRABCORE

I can't imagine how anyone -- young or old -- wouldn't find this insanely silly.

why can't we return to the simple sanity of coheed and cambria

btw this sounds exactly like every other screamo band that's around right now, nothing new to see here. search other awful bands as underoath, the devil wears prada, etc

the devil wears chowda

wait, underoath and the devil wears prada include hi-nrg synth moves in their songs too? maybe i should give those bands another chance.

These guys sound nothing like Underoath (not that I'm mounting a defense of either, btw) and only a little like Devil Wears Prada. Actually I think these goofs make TDWP look like frickin' Coalesce by comparison.

Is that a compliment?

I was thinking this song had everything too, but now I realize it doesn't have any rapping. FROWNY EMOTICON.

Its a backhanded compliment to The Devil Wears Prada for not sucking THIS bad.

this song is the bomb

but is it the bomb-diggity

yes

musically the first minute isn't so bad, overused autotune effect aside.

the eurodance breakdown at the end is hilarious

Can I simultaneously proclaim it awesome, and never really watch it again?

haha my feelings exactly

Yes, it needs rapping.

Posting this from my abandoned house wearing my black v-neck shirt

I like how the girl in the white dress is covering her ears!

yeah that and the vocoder sound were the most wtf for me

I like when am0n dubbed this cher metal

Can I simultaneously proclaim it awesome, and never really watch it again?

its more like "wow this is shitty" followed by watching it 20 times for me

Weird, there's a whole other video for this!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D8CPXVhNsQ&feature=related

I did feel that the first one was missing glowsticks

oh my god this song :D

cannot choose between 'virtuoso' piano moment, first appearance of autotune or eurodance rave-up

*watches* "So, what does the keyboard player do other than headbang behind his rig?"

*later* "Oh."

*later still* "Ohhhhhhhhh."

wow I thought BEP's "I Gotta Feeling" would be the funniest song I'd hear this week but checkfuckingmate

Come on, this is great.

I love how the keyboard player isn't plugged into anything, no power, no cords to the amp, nothing.

I also love how the kid walks in right as the trance synth kicks in. Not only will the other kids not let you in to the show, but when you do finally sneak in it turns out that they were all going to see Aqua.

So I had to stop by the mall to pick up something for my wife and decided to stop in Hot Topic. Don't laugh, its one of the few brick and mortar stores in my area that regularly carries Century Media and Nuclear Blast releases. ANYWAY. Brokencyde and Attack Attack were everyfuckingwhere. I mean, they had AT LEAST 30 copies of each and tshirts tshirts tshirts. Apparently this is most definitely a THING.

only in America. i hope. i pray.

hopefully attack attack fares better than brokencyde did in wikipedia's estimation of their relevance

^^

totally prefer Brokencyde, though I do hope (as always) that some more focused youngsters somewhere will provide lengthier explorations of the trance/metal connection

totally prefer Brokencyde

I phrase I suspect you thought you would never utter.

in fact I would like to solicit ILM's recommendations for not-too-cheesy trance + metal that doesn't come from cheeky noise bands, because Tatu could only go so far

Rolling "teh lolz" draadje

are they laughing at americans

this entire thread can be summed up thusly

BrokeNCYDE single vond ik leuk op een debiele manier, Hollywood Undead had ook een paar aardige singles. Attack Attack! is waardeloos. Beste van het stel is wat mij betreft HORSE the Band met heel veel voorsprong.

These guys are such hopeless douchecakes, it's palpably staggering.

Sometimes I really do imagine AINYC as a ruffled English aristocrat

I mean, OTM, but come now!

palpably staggering c'mon dude don't you write for a living

If you want to call it a living.

open goal there, dude

living joke

I thought he was talking about Dutch music geeks.

wow you're like candyman except instead of saying it to a mirror at midnight just post dutch on a thread and you appear

the candyman says dutch to a mirror at midnight?

it is midnight

candyman: dutch
mirror: lol

Yup, that's just the kind of hopeless douchecakes we are.

no no, attack attack are the douchecakes, the dutch are bloodthirsty supernatural serial killers

on the same level as Oatmeal guy's response to the Gawker article, though at least in that situation both participants can take care of themselves rather than being "lol crabcore guy no write good".

It's metalsucks.net, you don't exactly read it for the sterling editorial tone

excellent, thanks

loooool this was great

also I am listening to "Stick Stickly" again and it's actually not bad (still hilarious but not terrible)

Hey, did anyone hear about the time David Cameron met Crunk Pig?

Phew.

I will forever love this sentence:

Around 2006, then-high-schooler Johnny Franck was obsessed with local buttrock band Ambiance.

R U ready to CRAB ANEW?

crabby days are here again

Not even the return of crabcore can bring joy in these godforsaken times.

nevertheless I am here for it

http://kittynchoke.com/cXc.jpg

So I just recently realized that the "clean" vocalist from Attack Attack! now performs as the ridiculously named Bilmuri and is actually somewhat popular? He sold out a place here in town this week. I wonder if he has any crabcore left in his show.

And apparently it's described as "trap country meets djent". *shudder*

Always out there pushing boundaries.
