Cattle Decap isn't grind.

The term "grindcore" has been bastardized by the fashion faux pas kids lately, the same way the term "screamo" was fucked with a few years back by the same "group" of people. YOU KNOW, THE SWOOPS.

Start here:
Horrified by Repulsion
Scum by Napalm Death.

often shortened to grind, is an evolution of crust punk, most commonly associated with death metal, a very different though similarly extreme style of music.

Grindcore is characterized by: heavily distorted, down-tuned guitars, with crust punk-influenced riffing; hardcore punk and thrash metal drumming, with many bands focusing on blast beats; songs rarely lasting more than two minutes and often seconds long; vocals which consist of growls and higher-pitched screams, similar to those found in black metal or hardcore punk. Lyrical concepts range from social and political issues to gore and humor.

Varg missed his chance to make it big in the Omaha based power metal act Celador. Now he has to take out his angst by making ambiguous and open ended posts on central Iowa message boards in a completely holier-than-though demeanor. Ohhhhhhhhhh the irony!

Sorry buddy. Maybe when you learn to stop being such a shithead, you'll actually lead the MOST METAL life you truly want to live.

lol, MISSED HIS CHANCE TO MAKE IT BIG!! I can only imagine who you've been talking to...

Where have you been? I am holier-than-THOU. You're making fun of the kid(s) that you STILL are. The fashion-faux-pas, as you call them. You thought metal was just a big fucking joke when I first came to this board, and that was only a few years ago. Now look at you, growing your hair out, and preaching metal as if its the gospel. It's people exactly like you and my HIV+ roomate, who are the problem with metal. It's just unfortunate (or maybe it isn't) that there aren't enough elitests in the world to call you out for the metal-whores you are.
I couldn't care less about metal at this point in my life. I've talked with more bands than I can remember about this sudden popularity in metal and they dislike you fags just as much as me. It pisses me off because they aren't going to say a god damn thing about it because YOU keep paying their bills when they go on tour. I guess I can't blame them though, because contrary to popular belief, they have hardly "MADE IT BIG!!!"

Unfortunately I do, and he's such a stand-up guy about it that he actually leaves little dribbles of dried up urine on the SEAT for me to squirm around or clean up.

One of these days he'll figure out he probably shouldn't have been leavin' that toothbrush of his in the same room he pees in.

I hope big metal acts hate me. Especially into eternity and the like, because I hate them.

Metal sucks because there are too many idiots involved in it. But when there aren't morons, its pretty tolerable.

Yeah, you're spot on. I guess for me the whole long hair, totally wasted guy who can barely speak (See heavy metal parkinglot, these dudes still exist!) is particularly repulsive.

However meathead jocks who "run the pit" suck a lot too.

ATTN Brandon Wiggins.

I put my foot straight into my mouth, and then pulled it out again.

I still back the comment that I don't care if major metal acts hate me though.
