Fashioncore

A derogatory word used for people who when at shows care more about looking good and being seen than the music. Common misconception and closemindedness have made alot of people think it's people who wear tight jeans or put effort into their appearance. Wrong, it is not the kids who look good or care about their aesthetics. It's the kids who go to shows and don't give a fuck about the music; they are only there to show off their clothes, check out what everyone else is wearing, and go on about how they seen whoever before they sold out, or how they seen '_____' and they where phenomanal. These kids are usually found near the back with cameras, snapping pictures of the band but usually just themselves and friends. You can easily tell who they are because they've never so much as moved during a show and fix their hair every few seconds despite the fact that they haven't moved enough for it to be ruined.

1.) {noun} Originating, as mentioned below, as a joke. The joke was then blown out of proportion and is now used as a derogatory term used to pigeonhole bands where the obligatory dress code is not camo pants, hoodie, and baseball cap that obscures vision.

Note the absence of a name that describes the music, and not the appearance.

Term is most often used by elitist, 'veritable hardcore kids' on forums flaunting their virility, whilst calling other 'pussy fags' for listening to music that they disapprove of.

Bands that have dealt with this label are, Eighteen Visions, Atreyu, Bleeding Through, Avenged Sevenfold, etc. In an interview with Outburn Issue #26, lead singer of 18V, James Hart clarifies for the masses:

Q: "What do you guys think of the term fashioncore being used to describe Eighteen Visions in the past?"

A: "It's retarded. Some kids started making shirts with that on there. It had nothing to do with us. Kids thought we were making that shirt. We're not fans of the term at all. How does the sound of your music have anything to do with the way you look? It doesn't."

2.) {adj.} Used to describe poorly misguided scenesters who hold their white studded belt in greater esteem than their highschool education. Often seen congregating with others of their kind, being as elitist as their adversaries (see above). In vernacular, also known as tool, or douchebag.

As is obvious with scene and the complete idiocy that surrounds music these days, physical presentation of a stereotype has become a higher priority than the music itself.

And essentially, isn't ALL music fashioncore? Look at the pop stars today, Scott Weiland of STP and Marilyn Manson. Isn't what they wear intended to be provocative and differ from the norm?

Yeah. That's what I thought.
1.) (noun; from actual forums) fashioncore is today's sucky music.

They are pussies that take away the name of cool hardcore bands tha shave their heads, get tattoos, and wear camo shorts!!!

2.) (adj; actual forums) No it's pseudometalcore bands that wear girl cut/designer jeans, have tight black t-shirts, dyed black hair that's messy and wear white studded belts with optional pink bandanas.

NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE WORD "SCENE"
the word fashioncore has been reversed and turned into something very negative. Fasioncore was orginally started as a joke between some Eighteen Vision merch guys who wore shirts that said fashioncore, as a joke. but then turned into something else, something for the hardcore kids that didnt like the current style, and wanted to look like rockstars instead of the average hardcore kid. it has nothing to do with wearing any certain type of clothing or having some certain hair cut. it just had to do with what kids wanting to dress like "rockstars" or dressing in "Nice" looking clothes. but now-a-days people think dressing in a pink t-shirt, wearing girl jeans, and having multi colored hair is fashioncore, that is considered "scene". a scene is wear everyone looks alike witch is what the hardcore has turned into.
