yeah man ptw second cd was awesome. i loved hatebreed right b efore and after their victory album came out. then 4 years later playingthe same songs got sorta old. but i dont care what anyone says, to many bands just try to take something too far. as with ptw, eighteen visions, etc. 18v 2 first albums were awesome, even the 3rd on trustkill was ok. but the vanity thing is gay. people find a trend then murder it. thats why i just about abandoned hardcore and went to total metal. i used to be super scenester, now i just go when a decent band is playing. most hardcore sucks, mostly because of the metal core bullshit now.
i guess you could say im a metal head with a hardcore heart. i agree the price is steep. but honestly i think its hardcore kids going to be at a metal show. there are no hardcore bands headlining. hopefully the hardcore bands will be on a different stage to elimate the dumb fights. metal pits and hardcore pits are totally different. thats why im kinda weirded out about going to slayer. archemeny and hatebreed cause your gonna have a bunch of floor punchers for hatebreed and metal heads for slayer. it might not be good. or you could try to do what im going to do and just get brutal. haha
its like mid november. check out nj metal and hardcore fest on like google.
morbid angel, children of bodom, nile, danzig, superjoint ritual, all out war, dimmu borgir, blah blah and like 500 other bands. its 2 days, and 75 bucks for both days
ok so alot of the bands mentioned arent "hardcore." however they are not metal either. i think they are more influenced by hardcore than death/thrash or grind. henceforth metalcore.
i like seekings list.
