No, see, it's because there's so many "core" genres that the term "nintendocore" is so friggin' sweet. I haven't even heard any of its music, but come on - nintendocore? Brilliant!

And besides, what the hell does "sadcore" or "gothcore" tell you? At least "nintendocore" you expect something. dammit.

Dude, Horse the Band kicks ass.

CUT! CUT! CUT! CUUUUUT!

For those not in the know: Horse the Band is quite possibly the only band that isn't local, and the one that coined the term "Nintendocore". Yes, it is what you think. Hardcore/metalcore with Nintendo-styled keyboards. Give it a listen. It's refreshing.

Hector Gilbert:
I just bought an album by Boyd Rice and Friends called Music, Martinis and Misanthropy and Boyd Rice as a vocalist doesn't appear ready to do anything but just speak.  The music employed is for the most part really dull (think a guitar playing the same riff over five minutes, and numerous sound loops) but the combination of that with the spoken word makes for a rather strange "creeping" feel where the blatantly sadistic mutterings take precedence over everything else.  I haven't heard anything quite like it before.

Jandek's Worthless Recluse album is entirely spoken word.  As in, no music.  I haven't heard it yet, but the lyrics are enough of a curiosity in themselves - I probably wouldn't do well with my friends if I got to play this for them!  Try http://tisue.net/jandek/lyrics.html#0769 to get an idea of the experience of having to sit through it, the title track in particular.[/url]

Woah woah woah. Horse The Band is Nintendocore? How can you NOT love it?
