too bad it doesn't sound like music...and i never said theyre living luxurious lives...i said they're making money...

Most Metal bands barely make money and still have to work to make ends meet. Grind is not very popular/not very acessible and the musicians probably make nearly nothing off of their music.

And yes, it does sound like music.
 
Carbonized is about the only grind band I can get into because it has so much old school death metal in it. I just don't enjoy the focus on the energy.
 
bands with record contracts rarely have to work to make ends meet...and IMO they should pay people to listen to their "music"

Are you kidding?

Maybe Fall Out Boy but not a band like Nasum.

If I asked random people who Fall Out Boy were they could probably sing their songs right there but if I ask them who Nasum is they will look at me like I'm an idiot and ask WTF is that.
 
poser? hahaha yeah that's it. I'm a poser because i dont listen to shitty black and death metal...you don't know shit about me so shut the fuck up and quit using forums as a way to bad mouth people who like different music than you...i never said anything about the people who listen to grindcore.
 
after seeing See you next tuesday live i lost all liking of grindcore, even if theyre just a shitty scene grind band, i cant even like agoraphobic nosebleed or regurgitate anymore
 
I figure I'm beating a dead horse, but what the hell.

Much like black metal, grindcore isn't focused merely on technical proficiency. The best grind bands will set a mood and atmosphere that is intended to be a chaotic sonic assault on the mind and body. Bands like Nasum, Napalm Death, Pig Destroyer, Rotten Sound, Circle Of Dead Children, etc. are perfect examples of this. They aren't occupying themselves with instrumental masturbation, simply because they aren't concerned with that aspect of their music. The main focus of these bands is to create intense music that will affect the listener.

If you're saying that all grind bands lack talent, then you are essentially saying that any band/artist that doesn't flaunt their technical abilities to no end (black metal, doom/funeral doom bands, for instance) lack talent. Making a statement like that in a serious tone would make you a fucking dolt, and I think you've already accomplished that.

You're a poser because you clearly have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. Faggot.

EXCELLENT post, couldn't have said it better myself! Thanks!

haha...yeah releasing 38 7 inches with a record label formed by some guy in his parent's basement is really the way to make money. Why am I working again...it takes not skills to play grindcore and they're making money.

I think your thread only proved that we're stupid not to all be in grindcore bands.
