It's clear you don't know shit about thrash, otherwise you wouldn't associate Trivium with thrash in any way. I'm leaving it at that, I don't care who agrees with me and who doesn't. I'm getting Sick of hearing about Trivium. Can we move on to some other topic that'll spark another shitstorm, like discussing Bring Me the Horizon's questinable sexual preferences or something?

Oh, yeah, we should probably get off the Trivium topic.
In fact, let's never compare Metalcore with thrash again, guys. It just wasted like, 4 pages of the thread.

Why? We should definitely keep comparing Metalcore and thrash!

Percentages were just an estimate.
 
You are right it doesn't matter. But if it doesn't matter why did I get a Nuclear bomb droped on me when I said those bands were thrashy?

I remember having fun once, it was terrible...

 
Ummm excuse me? its obvious you don't know shit about Metacore or Trivium's history.
 
But yes I don't know shit about thrash. But shit is enough to know what thrash is associated with.
 
We shall change topic unless someone wants to keep going.

You know, if you had just said this right away I wouldn't have to have spent 4 fucking pages arguing with you. Jesus man, work with me here.

alright, change topic.

Bring Me The Horizon are homoerotic and do not sound metal in any conceivable way. Discuss.

Well, I wouldn't say they're gay, mostly because these types of metal bands are usually in a sort of manliness competition with each other. But those mallgoth haircuts don't help their image, that's for sure. Oh, but wait. I found a story about how the singer, during a live performance, took a piss on a girl in the audience. There was a lack of evidence in court and charges were dropped.
 
As far as them being not metal, I don't think it matters wether or not the band has punk influences, or that they are among the 'mainstream' modern metal bands. I still think these guys are metal. Why do you think BMTH aren't metal?

Yeah, they're "heavy" at least when compared to lighter forms of music, yes they use harsh vocals, but those have never been some sort of Pass Go Free! card into the metal realm. They fit better in the punk/screamo/post-hardcore genre of music. I don't know which one specifically, don't listen to much of those genres on account of them sucking.
Lemme put it simply: If you consider them Metalcore, they're more -core than metal.

But remember; I don't Hate on Bring Me The Horizon because they're not metal. I enjoy plenty of non-metal bands and even though we can all agree that metal is the best genre of music ever (if you don't think so I don't know why the fuck you're even here), just because a band isn't considered metal doesn't make them inherently worse than any metal band by default. Hell, there's TONS of terrible metal out there.

I Hate on them because they make terrible music. They just sound like shit. Riffs suck, vocals suck, image makes me wretch. The end.

In some Black Metal it is and alot of screamo bands do this. Aleasna is almost just plain punk metal with a bit of screams and It is classed as metal.
 
and about Bring Me The Horizon... some of their photos look kinda faggy but the music is far from faggy.
