Sub-genres of music.

Post by RobTheDrummer »

So anyway, I checked out a post on the upcoming shows and got me thinking about all the sub-genres of music. The thing that got me thinking was the "A Fight With Sledgehammers" band referred to as "Crust Punk". What exactly is crust punk and what are the other sub-genres of punk? I think it would be neat to know as someone that isn't much into the punk scene.

Also, the different styles of metal, blues, jazz, funk, rock, and country would also be good discussions if you're learned in a certain area. Fill me in, I wanna learn some stuff.

sub genres are kind of lame...but they exist.

crust punk is just a name given to anarcho-punk with heavier riffage.

Basically someone puts a twist on something and they gotta call it something different. Now there are 9834787643877064783268273989 different sub-genres.

subgenres are just another way to be elitist. there really is no need for it but just to say you are different. In fact if a lot of this would go away scenes would soo much better.

i did btw like how you defined a sub genre with a sub genre. but thats how it works when your in a anarcho-crust-sludge-straight edge-anti work class-hardcore-thrash-grindcore-rock'n'roll-punk band

i do believe that minor threat turned that into a type of music that kids define their band as.

I went to the site and found this...lol.

and this is what the text said underneath...


with more gaudy accessories than a williamsburg thrift store, this gal uses her daddy's credit card to stay hip! she is an art school dropout and has no intention of furthering her education. rather, she aspires to become a hairdresser one day; beauty school, here she comes! please note: this will not actually happen.
her taste in music taste changes based upon what's being spun at whatever club is trendy that week. dance music is her absolute fave, but her friends have no idea about her checkered past.

once a ska queen, she now works as hard as she can to preserve her fashionable hipster image by mimicking the incoming trends, and immediately ditches anything that might have been cool two minutes ago. this behavior prevents her from forming any individual identity whatsoever.

she aspires to work in the fashion industry, and she will- folding clothes at old navy for the rest of her life.

They're talking about Williamsburg, Brooklyn and not Williamsburg, PA of course. If it were Williamsburg, Pa it would just show some pregnant middle-shooler. haha
