[edit] Metalcore??

This needs to be changed. Terror plays straight-up hardcore; they are definitely NOT a metalcore band.

  • Agreed, it's just some bitter punks who can't take that some hardcore has got heavier over the years. XdiabolicalX 21:33, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

nope not hardcore this is fagcore..I mean metalcore

Dear god, can't the back and forth hardcore to metalcore and back edit wars stop? Does it really matter? AndyMcKay 15:30, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

So, terror is a moshcore band. Moshcore is what today we call HARDCORE. No such thing as oldskool metalcore exists, there's moshccore, crossover, thrashcore and hell knows what else, but that aint metalcore, metalcore is As I Lay Dying and I Killed The Prom Queen. Cuz it has METAL in it. The other newer styles are just "veryhardcore". Terror is moshcore.

Moshcore? Who is the "we" in "moshcore is what today we call HARDCORE?" I can't say I've ever heard ANYONE call modern day hardcore "moshcore." Maybe a band here or there, but there are far to many facets of hardcore to call the entire genre "moshcore." AndyMcKay 14:25, 15 May 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Notability

Just because Terror doesn't have singles that are played on top 40 radio or have platinum selling records doesn't mean that they are not notable. For evidence of notibility I offer the fact that they have toured multiple continents multiple times (most recent tour had them doing shows in Europe), have an album that charted on the Billboard's Top Heatseakers chart (peaked at #10) and Top Independent Albums chart (peaked at #19), interviews in both print and online publications (1, 2), and their album "Lowest of the Low" sold 20,000 copies on the Bridge9 label.

Take a look at this notability page, but it does appear that Terror would qualify as notable. To avoid having it retagged, you should add your evidence to the article and source it. Thanks --Dchall1 18:45, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Per the notability page they qualify under numbers 2 (due to having an album chart on both the Top Heatseeker and Top Independent Album charts), and 5 (they have released 2 albums on Trustkill Records, distributed by Fontana Distribution, part of the Universal Music Group; Trustkill has been operating for over a decade and in the last 12-18 months alone have had 5 albums that entered the Billboard charts, 3 of which hit the top 200). I will add the information regarding Terror having an album in the Billboard Top Independent Album chart.AndyMcKay 02:42, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
