sgoodcore Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 United Nations is a power-violence grind-core band... Okay, what the fuck. Seriously. Power-violence grind-core? Does that even mean anything anyone could actually relate to someone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robotnerd Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 yes... power violence was essentially emo bordering on grind. orchid, reversal of man, angel hair, joshua fit for battle, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoodcore Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 yes... power violence was essentially emo bordering on grind. orchid, reversal of man, angel hair, joshua fit for battle, etc Oh I know I always thought violence was a dumb ass name for it. I listen to all that and love it but have no desire to hurt people. Just a silly name for music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robotnerd Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 oh yeah, i totally agree... terrible name. i pretty much always just called it all screamo or grind anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoodcore Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I figured emo was good enough because screamo always made me squirm too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtz Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 The majority of Thursday and Glassjaw fans have probably never even heard of Orchid or Reversal of Man before, but I'm sure they will eat this up anyway. I have pretty low expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronniethebear Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 But real grind is something completely different. Interesting fact: The band Insect Warfare took its name as a reference to their hate of bands like The Locust; they liked to used the phrase "Death to false grind".

xjustinxschwierx Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 in my opinion the only band ever deserving of the the title of "power-violence", that I've ever witnessed, is Kungfu Rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never saw Charles Bronson, and Mark McCoy is a complete tool. plus musically I think their song titles were better than their actual songs. ...and they were from Dekalb.

xfedaykinx Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 the fact that "power violence" is used to describe a genre of music that can otherwise be called "screamo" makes my stomach churn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtw88 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 This thread rules. +1 to everyone with an encyclopedic knowledge of genres and the bands which fit them! It makes you ruuuuule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtmanner Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 the fact that "power violence" is used to describe a genre of music that can otherwise be called "screamo" makes my stomach churn I don't know if I'm more comfortable with it being powerful, and not violent, or violent, and not powerful, but I'm certain it's not both. Damn, I wish I wasn't so turned off by genre definitions. Aside from all that, this project should definitely make an interesting... sound? I'd like to give it a listen.

salparadise Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 you're actually...wrong...but okay. okay captain semantics, we're now all waiting for you to enlighten us? edit: also, you should probably email that guy from thursday, didn't he namedrop orchid, reversal of man, and powerviolence all in the same sentence? so he should probably be proven wrong as soon as possible. or you could be a total dick. i didn't read the article, i skimmed through this post, saw the incorrect post and told you that you were wrong. get the sand out of your vagina. yes... power violence was essentially emo bordering on grind. orchid, reversal of man, angel hair, joshua fit for battle, etc none of that has anything to do with power violence. i don't know if you are taking your facts from the article, or if you were too caught up with raving and kurt cobain in the 90's, because you've got a few years on me, but none of what you consider power-violence, is power-violence. power violence was thrash/hardcore like spazz, charles bronson, capitalist casualties, etc. fast and punk. all the stuff you listed, was basically screamo, and that's partially arguable, and that's the only time where semantics would come into play here. power-violence, is it's own definable genre of music. separate from grind, separate from screamo, and far as fuck away from your shit definition. i don't know who let you out of your padded cell to post stupid shit on the internet. but seriously...you're 27, act like it, d-bag.
