It's the Internet so by all means laugh and/or make fun of what you're hearing but my voice cracks a lot in this video mainly because I blew my voice out a few days ago from work.
thank you dad
heavy metal wendigoon
I know you said it at the start of the video but... Now i want to see a video with all the "Not legitimate" metal genres fans or bands invent for themselves. Pirate Metal, Alcoholic Metal, Aliencore, Frognoise, True Metal... The less legitimate the better. I just think it's a fun idea to play around with.
Finally a video on explaining metal subgenres that doesn't suck. I shit you not, every video I've seen by any other channel that focuses on explaining a genre is like it is made by people who don't know what music is. They usually get their info from wikipedia or generic youtube/spotify playlists and work the rest of the info out by grasping at straws and using mental gymnastics to draw comparisons/conclusions.
What fascinates me about avantgarde metal is that, as the metal version of experimental rock, it doesn't really have a specific sound: you can arguably attach this tag to stuff as various as Gnaw Their Toungues, Neptunian Maximalism, Naked City, Liturgy, Today Is the Day, Khanate, even certain albums by Meshuggah, and you would be still correct.
I've always thought of "post-metal" as a mix of sludge, industrial (sometimes), and the atmospherics of post-rock. Key bands setting the example would be Neurosis and Isis.
Mincecore & Grindcore are cut from the same cloth, the name is in how they edit their guitars & drums. The sound of Grindcore is a very Grinding like tone & the sound of Mincecore is very much a Mincing tone (kinda like the words when it comes to cutting foods, like Dicing, Slicing & Mincing your Vegetables) Now Mincecore also deals with more Animal Liberation & Anarcho subject matter along with Veganisms which is where the Goregrind vocals sometimes show up as an influence because original Goregrind (Carcass, ect. ) was gore infused with Medical photographs to promote Veganism. Another distinctive aspect to Mince is the snare drum, almost always the snare strainer is loose for a more "Dong" sound, rather than Grind keeping their snare strainers pretty tight. Good Mincecore bands would be "Haggus", "Archagathus" or "Agathocles" & some more underground Raw Mince would be "MxMxM"

I'm only about halfway through the video, but I have to mention the Genocide Organ/Prurient collab in the back. That album is sick, and the vinyl looks awesome
I always considered stoner metal to be a very defined subgenre of doom metal, wherein it's essentially doom metal with heavy blues and psychedelic influences. Seems that typically it's accepted as a definite subgenre rather than an unspecified additive
I never get sick of these videos
The name Mincecore was first used by our very own Belgian Agathocles. I can highly recommend 'Mister Hardcore Syndrome' by them!
when I started watching I said to myself " I bet at the very bottom hes going to mention mincecore " AND you nailed it, its basically punk inspired gorenoise and its really gaining in popularity from what I can tell. Lots of bands that don't have albums and just do live shows.
"progressive metal but on steroids" very accurate haha! Awesome and entertaining video! Got my sub. Cheers brother and looking forward to seeing more!
Enjoyed the video. I think I would have put deathcore up there with metalcore, primarily because when I talk to non-metal listeners it seems to be one of or the most popular metal genres (mostly BMTH and White Chapel). Unless I missed it I guess I wasn't entirely clear on what the qualifications were for each tier. That's nit picking though. Fun videos!
This deserves way more views and likes
love the vids man. do play any instruments yourself or sing in a band or anything ??
Oh man you actually dig and listen about the music talked about current extreme metal music. I would like to hear your further explanation on what is "Cybergrind" because i listen to pretty much everything that is both as niche as harsh, but dont really try to explain myself why i think is awesome.
metalcore and deathcore being shunned by metal elitists never made sense to me because of so many other genres using hardcore/punk influence being welcomed with open arms (like thrash). Its almost like a big portion of metal fans just went "we dont like this interpretation of sound" and started hating on it. Its kind of stupid to hate on genre and sound fusions since thats basically what already allowed metal to become this very expansive genre in the first place.
