suffix added to a bunch of musical genres supposedly branching off of 80s hardcore
punk. Some of these genres are more mainstream and more watered down than others. However, in the latter years, even the true DIY genres are being polluted by a huge influx of scenesters and other types of upstuck little high
school cliques who think punk is "hip." Now everybody wants to listen to the unpopular bands cause being unpopular is
cool. Angsty clueless trendy teens have used the shit out of "core"
"2 years ago, nobody knew who the fuck Charles Bronson were. Now they're the "in" thing, just like converse chuck taylors"
"Screamo, metalcore, and all those lame ass genres scenesters revere and call "
hardcore" are nothing but whiny crappy
hot topic commercial bullshit"
"Holy shit! When
will we invent something new these trendy-ass bastards won't know about?"
