Jackie Blue:
Polvo are "math rock" and Fugazi are "post-hardcore".
And if someone doesn't know what those terms mean, just say "Polvo is nerdy rock" and "Fugazi is nerdy punk".
Spinless:
You see, I stop paying attention when genre names become more than two syllables, it's all very confusing after that.
GenericName:
Guys, are Deathmole still Electro-Spaz Post-Hardcore?
(That just reminded me of that.)

That is the smartest thing anyone has ever said on here in weeks.

I've noticed a couple of trends amongst my friends who play music in the past couple of years:
All the grind-ey botch or 31G bands are now playing pelican/isis type riff rock
All the Gravvy Train!!! bands are DJing dubstep
All the posthardcoreemowhateveryouwanttocallit bands are playing, well pelican/isis type riff rock
Maybe not next big thing, but there is a lot of riff rock round my parts, a lot of prog influence stuff, s'all a bit 70's and long winded for me....
Also not enough hard and fast and not enough folk that does have a laptop involved somewhere.
Has anyone else noticed trends in the kinds of music friends and peers are making? x

Oh god yes, that sounds exactly like everyone I know as well, there's too much riff obsession by far. It was interesting at first but now it's just tiresome, too many bands doing the same thing and none of them getting remotely near the places Snowblood managed to take it. I miss the days when everyone wanted to sound like they were on Fat Wreck instead of Hydrahead, at least then musical skill wasn't put on a pedestal and there were more fun songs.
