deathcore

How come on one of they're albums pages the genre says deathcore and i just want to find out how they are before i change itJakeellsonator (talk) 13:28, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Their older stuff, from Suicide Note, was far more dark in the form of its lyrics that fits the deathcore genre. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.90.142 (talk) 07:48, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics don't classify them as deathcore. The album, or any other album, have no death metal influences in there. Deathcore is clearly defined as death metal with metalcore influences. Lyrics have nothing to do with that.--Kevinlovesyou (talk) 16:43, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For right now, I have removed the deathcore link from their Suicide Notes Butterfly Kisses album information. If you are able to bring some sort of evidence proving that they are deathcore, then just simply place the deathcore link back with a reference backing it up. Otherwise I will keep removing it. WE NEED EVIDENCE.--Kevinlovesyou (talk) 16:47, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Genre

Should they still be called metalcore after their last album? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ThickerThanWater19 (talk • contribs) 05:12, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely. While there was a ton of experimentation with other genres on their latest release, there was still metalcore on there. What else would we call them? They are known as a metalcore band more than anything else. We also can't be general and call them a 'metal' band because metalcore and post-hardcore are both punk genres, whereas the only metal genre they have is metalcore. If anything we would have to call them a punk band, which I still don't find accurate. James25402 (talk) 13:26, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes they are still considered metalcore. Otherwise we would have to label them as metal like James25402 just said. But metal is to broad. Metalcore is more accurate, or we can just label them alternative metal. That also seems suitable. Listening to the album can also help. The first song, Doomsday, Becoming the Bull, Can't Happen Here, The Squeeze, and others are clearly metalcore. This is more than half the album, which makes the album metalcore--Kevinlovesyou (talk) 16:52, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
To be honest it needs two tags, one which is Metalcore for their earlier EP's and releases, and Faggotstream, for their mainstream album, lead losers and paper dicks

ok thats just redicules and immature, wikipedia (and no one else) is interested in you opinion. as the above comment says, most of Lead Sails Paper Anchor is still Metalcore, just because Falling Down and Slow Burn are Hard Rock, it doesn't mean the rest of the album is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.51.160.84 (talk) 09:14, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What? I am sorry to hear you disagree, but we can't just label it metalcore ( but Falling down and Slow Burn don't qualify). The genre depends on the album in its entirety. Where are not labeling songs individually, but the entire album as one. Come up with a better, more "suitable" name for the sound of this album okay! The album can actually be considered metalcore because the majority of the album falls into that category. --Kevinlovesyou (talk) 05:46, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You misunderstand me, I was annoyed at the above comment. Its not as far off as people insist, if u liten to the albums in progression the screaming in slowly reduced as they moved foreward. This album still contains Metalcore as a primary genre although they have ventured into others as well. Alt Metal and Hard Rock do come to mind, but the spite for this album annoys the hell out of me. The growth of the guitars is outstanding but the fact that screaming is reduced is the only basis people use to classify the album, it rubbish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.176.217.87 (talk) 04:30, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Singles

I dnt remember you give elove a bad name being released as a single and i cant find any mention of atreyu even having a song called two weeks. should be changed —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.180.149.98 (talk) 12:14, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

misquote

'“We started as a heavy metal band,” says lead vocalist Alex Varkatzas' ; this is wrong, the actual quote is; “We started as a heavy hardcore band,” says lead vocalist Alex Varkatzas" This needs to be changed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.245.148.53 (talk) 12:10, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Post - Hardcore and Hard Rock

I've noticed these genre is being constently added and removed from this page (Post-Hardcore particually). From the reviews i've seen, Metalcore is definatly the overiding genre in describing the bands sound, and most of there more recent efforts are refered to as Alt Metal or Hard Rock mixed with occsional returns to Metalcore.

From memory I think I've seen them described as post-hardcore elsewhere once or twice although I can't remember where.

I'd say Metalcore / Alternative Metal is probly the best genres to have in the info box.

That being said Post-Harcore and Hard Rock aren't unreasonalbe. Perhaps a style section could be added indicating influence from these genres as well as change in sound on Lead Sails Paper Anchor and slight change on Death-Grip on Yesterday rather than adding them to the info box. Any thoughts? Ducky610 (talk) 02:50, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am at lose as to why the genre has been changed again without it being sourced or disscused! Can we have some disscusion instead of post-hardcore being added and removed at will? 220.245.148.53 (talk) 11:10, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Post-hardcore as a genre

Can someone please stop removing post-hardcore as a genre when I add it. I think that Atreyu are post-hardcore in their later releases, and their style of metalcore is far more hardcore punk influenced than other metalcore bands eg Killswitch Engage. Therefore I think that Post-hardcore should be one of their genres. I wont remove Metalcore or Alternative metal, I just think it should be added —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.209.127.142 (talk) 22:14, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

key word, "I Think". find sources for it and it can stay, until it is sourced, it is going to be removed. To be honest I agree with you about them being alot closer to Harcore punk than other metalcore bands. But just about every source I've seen calls then Metalcore with there newer albums mostly called alt metal or hard rock as well (alt metal being sourced to allmusic) so thats how it stays unless other sources are found Ducky610 (talk) 22:19, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. I'll look for some sources then. Fair enough. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.209.127.142 (talk) 20:11, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ehh The image for this page has gone, and its generally messed up, can anyone fix it, because i dont know how to —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.209.127.142 (talk) 20:22, 10 November 2009 (UTC) Don't worry, fixed it, but does anyone know how to add quotes? Could u tell me what to do? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.209.127.142 (talk) 20:28, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed that as well, sorry about that--90.209.127.142 (talk) 20:34, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Whoever is undoing my change, please don't. Ive provided the sources, so why are you changing it. I will just undo your change every time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.209.127.142 (talk) 20:38, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
