Industrial Rock?

I'm not a big expert of genres, but are sure that the song is Industrial Rock? For me, it's only "alternative rock". :) Darkmastertr (talk) 12:39, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's not industrial rock, and it sure as hell isn't hard rock. I'm changing it back to alternative rock. Jerkov (talk) 14:19, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Genre.

I would say that the song is too complex to describe as "alternative rock." I think that maybe, we should try to find a better suit for the song. I am not saying to change it. But to add another genre, a more explanatory one, to the infobox. Genres that come to mind are: Dream pop, New wave revival, Coldwave, Synth rock. Now, these are not the types of music I prefer (I like stuff like Disturbed and Bullet For My Valentine), so I am not an expert on what they sound like. as I have said, Alternative rock is not broad enough to describe this song (in my personal opinion); I would say it better describes stuff like R.E.M., Lostprophets, and Coldplay.

Synth rock definitely comes to mind, the last time I put that up it was removed though. Jerkov (talk) 15:26, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

why not electronica rather than Synth rock? addmidedly I generally listen heveyier music but this song is rather similar to Linkin Park's previous song 'Breaking the Habit' in terms of structure and musical elements. Electronica and Alternative Rock is probably a better descripion than Synth Rock. Also wondering if anyone can find somewhere that has genres that can be sourced for this song because I can't find a thing?

I think too that electronica fits better. RichV (talk) 12:13, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, I don't really know enough to differentiate between synth rock and electronica, what's the difference exactly? If anything, this song is not hard rock or nu metal, although some stubborn people keep adding these genres. Jerkov (talk) 21:28, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, there is a huge difference between New Divide and Breaking the Habit like say, um, I don't know... guitar? other differences are that Breaking the habit is completely electronic music, synthesizers, drum machines... This has synths yes, but I would classify that sound more as coldwave, or indutrial rock. Alten hofen 21:42, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

the guitar is more prominant in New Divide than Breaking the Habit however they are both densly layered with electronics and Chester performs a very melodic vocal style with an upbeat course. i no nothing about coldwave but i don't think industrial rock is that bad of a description, I shied away from it as it had been dismissed in previous descussion. either way synth rock seems like a bad description to me, electronica or Industrial rock are much closer to the mark —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.132.103.46 (talk) 03:12, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Electronica and Industrial are nothing alike. I won't go that deep into it, but listen to Oh my God by Guns n Roses, that'l give you an idea of Industrial rock. after you are done listening to that, listen to Breaking the habit. It's like listening to Sweet home Alabama, then Perfect Insanity. Yes this song has electronics, but not as much as Breaking the Habit, 'cause Breaking the Habit IS electronics, and that's it. This song has VERY Prominent guitar, and that ain't Electronica. Also, in almost all Linkin Park songs, Chester sings Melodic Vocals, so that has nothing to do with it. Alten hofen 23:52, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

omg, I didn't mean that they were alike i ment one should be substituted Synth rock, the guitar can be explained by Alternative rock, I know that there is no way this song could only be described by electronica, I suggested it to be added under Alternative Rock because that genre alone doesn't cover the extent of electronics in the song.

no longer number one on itunes

by the way it is no longer number one on itunes.it has been replaced by a band named glee cast.i have changed this but i think it is odd that there is no article on glee cast on wikipedia.and sorry about the comment above this section i didnt notice the new section thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.26.38.116 (talk) 14:22, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
