It's music... you either like it or you don't. There's no point bitching about it.

I haven't read any of the previous posts because it just looked like a back and fourth digs with i'm not fussed in. I'd rather talk about metal.

It's a known fact in the metal community that Metalcore music is about as original as dopey blonde hollywood whores. It's a cramped scene made up of 20% talent and 80% "get-rich-quick" carbon copy bands... the same could easily be said for the cock rock period of music.

That said, metalcore/hardcore is easily my favourite style of music. I have much admiration for Killswitch Engage who i feel played a huge role in helping us out of the rap metal or "nu-metal" period, which was another scene that got so overcrowded with wannabes it cancelled out the actual talent.

Other bands i love include As I Lay Dying, 36 Crazyfists, Parkway Drive, Shadows Fall, All That Remains, In Flames... etc.

Anyways, there's my 2 cents.
Don't let me disburb the disagree'n.
