[kj] (OT) Crabcore? What the Fuckin' HELL???

[Leigh Newton]

Hahaha, I've been seeing a lot of that video lately. It is truly unreal. It makes me think of what a metal band would sound like if the sound and style of it were determined by the results of some hardcore focus-group sessions.

Here's what's wrong with kids. It's not that they don't wanna rock, it's that -- evidently -- they don't know how to do it properly (said like the stuffy old man I truly am). Witness these two examples of the new subgenre thus dubbed "crabcore." If I have my facts right, they combine elements of emo, metal, teen pop and eurovision song contest crapola. You MUST watch these. They are truly brain frying. Don't miss the choreography on the first one, and hold out for the inexplicable Eurodisco big finish.

Oh, and evidently they're all creepy Christians. ONCE AGAIN, JESUS RUINS EVERYTHING.


And if that's not enough, check out their pals in Confide as they butcher the Postal Service's "Such Great Heights"....
