Queercore

[matty]

Exciting new genre of music. (Well, it's not new, but it's only just now getting exciting.)

My new fave: Gravy Train!!!! Yes, the exclamation points are part of the title. Do yourself a favor and download "Titties Bounce." So cute!

[slam]

is it pronounced "gravy train chkchkchkchk"?

I think you're just supposed to shout it, and throw in a goofy little dance.

"As a musical genre, it may be distinguished by lyrics exploring themes of prejudice and dealing with issues such as sexual identity, gender identity and the rights of the individual; more generally bands offer a critique of society endemic to their position within it, sometimes in a light-hearted way, sometimes seriously. Musically, many queercore bands originated in the punk scene but the industrial music culture has been influential as well. Queercore groups encompass many genres such as hardcore punk, synthpunk, indie rock, power pop, no wave, noise, experimental, industrial and others."


So, it's basically gay punk rock? Sounds interesting. :munchies:
