Talk:List of post-hardcore bands
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm sorry, have you ever heard Fugazi? They were basically the first post-hardcore band. Thursday, Underoath, and Taking Back Sunday are not post-hardcore, they don't even have predominate guitar. Refer to the last entry on the discussion of post-hardcore about math rock and noise rock, it's wonderfull.
I took out Corsets are Cages because they are a post-emo or screamo or whatever you want to call it (as long as you don't call it post-hardcore) band that isn't signed/ doesn't have an allmusic.com or music.com entry.
Thursday, Underoath, and Taking Back Sunday are post-hardcore actually. I don't know what you consider post-hardcore, but you're wrong about that. FatalError 01:44, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
It's tremendously discomforting to find bands like Atreyu, Finch, The Mars Volta, Thrice, Thursday, etc. in the same list as Fugazi, Naked Raygun (what was "post" HC about them exactly?), The Blood Brothers, Unwound, Helmet (not sure they really belong on this list either), and Les Savy Fav, not to mention the numerous excellent Touch and Go post-hardcore acts listed. Not sure what musical qualities these bands supposedly share, but someone really ought to get on figuring out a reasonable distinction between the two, so someone looking for more decent music in the vain of what is traditionally thought of as post-hardcore dosen't take this list to heart and end up purchasing a bunch of hot topic bullshit.
Adding Honor Role and Breadwinner.
Taking Back Sunday? Post Hardcore? I think not!
Well the three that you mentioned (TBS, Thursday, and Underoath) are on the edge of post-hardcore (I personally don't think TBS is), but you can't say Fugazi and those bands are the only post-hardcore there is. That's old post-hardcore, welcome to the modern world. FatalError 23:14, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
