354.

But I only listen to good metal, so it wasn't really a fair test. :lol:

It's already dead, not to worry. Cheesy "melodic hardcore" (usually intentionally mislabeled as emo for marketing reasons) is the trendy sound of the cities these days (hence the term "fashioncore".) Which makes life incredibly frustrating for those of us actually interested in independantly produced music in the first place. :-(

As for Korn... They kinda worked as an angry band. Success came a-knockin' and they realised they weren't really that angry anymore, but the rent still had to be paid...

Sad, really. Although it's fairly obvious to anyone who's seen their first VHS that they were never among the great thinkers of our time. :-D

Well I don't like "hardcore" as a genre label anyway. It's used to refer to several different kinds of music. "Fashioncore" is a derogatory label though, like {bleep}-rock (and there are some disturbing parallels!) something the punks came up with to take the piss. ;-)
