The Hardcore Thread Genre • Page 135

Lil Xan walked past me at the Counterparts show last night lol

 

Hell yeah! Haha!

 

Revisting the M.A.D. demo after seeing them last night. Good riffs.

 

is Sunami the most cringeworthy band in music?

 

Not even close.

 

I assume its a joke which makes it less cringey in my eyes.

 

Joke or not, people are wearing boxing gloves in their pits and literally just beating people up.

Despite the fact that I don't and haven't moshed in 15 years, I wanted to defend moshing/crowd surfing in the Accountability thread, but shit like Sunami just makes the whole genre look bad, imo.

 

Does it have members of Bad Luck Riot Extravaganza in it?

 

Haha. I don't know. Seems similar, but almost worse because at least Bad Luck kind of looked like debaucherous fun. This just looks like a beatdown show with a bunch of dudes that aren't particularly built or in good shape beating on each other. Their "slogan" is "your a bitch" which bothers me even more because on top of being misogynistic/just plain lame, it's gramatically incorrect.

 

I guess it's supposed to be a joke, but it seems pretty lame to me. Maybe I'm just missing the point. Curious to hear others thoughts.

 

I think most people in hardcore know ignorant beat down is silly and don’t take it very seriously. These kinds of bands have a short shelf life anyways.

btw the cringiest band in music is Cigarettes After Sex.

 

I’m not going to sit here and say “x band is the most cringe band...” (because I’m sure I am guilty of listening to some pretty terrible bands!) With that being said, it’s outright deplorable to incite violence.

Sorry to anyone I offend that is a Tsunami fan but the riffs are done before and that mosh looked corny as fuck. Beat down crowds don’t look like they used to, just comes across as guys looking for their moment to look tough.

Bands who were known for that type of thing, while as deplorable as it is, didn’t encourage it or make it a gimmick to appear hard. It was just simply incited lyrically or by the energy of the band. The people at shows I went to that wound up hurting others didn’t turn around and just swing at people’s faces like that. They were very athletic, built hardcore kids with the energy to mosh an entire set and actually had moves that unfortunately would catch bystanders indirectly.

Last/newest band I felt actually did that naturally was Xibalba.

 

Holy FUCK.

How exactly does one think to speed while carrying THAT much weed?

 

My thoughts exactly.

 

Whoa. Not sure how I missed it, but I didn't realize Walter from RO got in a similar situation...

 

I love the head-swiveling looks for acknowledgment in between songs after crowd killing. "The cheering is for me". I like a rough room but it cracks me up that there's always a dude willing to go to that extreme for attention. Always followed by two fists in the air and pretending to be oblivious that some of those haymakers landed on faces.

 

The whole Sunami thing seems like a joke that I would be that 95% of that crowd is already privy to. It looks pretty dumb but whatever, people are gonna pretend to be upset about it.

"From the blood on my hands
To the blue on your shirt
Come at us sideways finna put you in the dirt

Wave your stupid badge, that shit is just for show.
Live to break your rules, to defy what you know.
Tell us how to live our lives, control what we say.
Take all your shit and spit them back in your face.


187 on a P-I-G

Throw me on the hood
Cause you mad about the chase
I’m up to no good
But you got no face no case

I know you wanna cap me
I crave death go ahead, set me free
Corrupt to the core
I ain’t a scared bitch, so what the fuck you waiting for?

Wave your stupid badge, that shit is just for show.
Live to break your rules, to defy what you know.
Tell us how to live our lives, control what we say.
Take all your shit and spit them back in your face.

SJPD’s most wanted
Public enemy number 1
Beat yo ass then steal yo bitch
SUNAMIIIIIIIIII"

I mean...it's your decision whether or not you take Sunami seriously.

 

Eek...

 

I'm not upset or taking them seriously, but they're still a bad look for the scene.

 

If I’m gonna keep going down the path of tinnitus, it better be for better music than that.

 

I love the new Fiddlehead tracks but I can’t justify buying 7 inches anymore. Plus the bundle with the shirt comes out to almost $40
