Re: Nirvana Vs. Pearl Jam
Okay, I had a pretty hard time understand that post, but I'm going to do my best regardless...
Your focus on the so-called mosh is more or less everything that's wrong with hardcore. It was never, at any point about being violent- did that come off in the expression involved in the music? Yes... but anyone who is solely interested in the aspect of beating people up with music as the background music needs to find something else to do. Maybe grab a football and roll around with your gym buddies at the local park, I don't know.
In addition, I'm not too sure how you could consider punk rock 'emo'? Are you going on the premise that a band refers to themself as such?... Although this tends to happen, it's extremely easy to see through. Punk rock is punk rock, I can refer to anything I listen to as such, but it doesn't make it a true statement. But hey, maybe this confusion will keep you away from shows.
