Crescendocore

n. (kre-SHEN-do-kor)

Crescendocore is a umbrella term for a wide variety of musical genres. The majority of popular crescendocore lies in the post rock and shoegaze genres.
It's a joining of the word 'Crescendo' and the suffix '-core.' The latter does not imply a connection to Hardcore music, it just states that it is a term for a genre of music.

What crescendocore implies is a heavy emphasis the characteristic in music of a long tension and release in the form of a large dynamic change - that is; getting very loud. This usually happens very quickly and is also marked by changing tonal and duration structures.

Several well known crescendocore acts include:
-Sigur Ròs
-Godspeed You! Black Emperor
-Ludwig van Beethoven
-Flying Saucer Attack
-Slint
-Bark Psychosis

Guy 1: Dude, have you heard of Godspeed You! Black Emperor?
Guy 2: No, not really.
Guy 1: Man, you should, you love post rock and this is A grade crescendocore
Guy 2: I should probably check them out, then.

Creswell, notts

A small ex mining village on the outskirts of Nottinghamshire. Commonly known by locals as a holding pen for the Jeremy kyle show. Its claim to fame is the invention of tracksuit bottoms tucked into socks. Many of the residents look malnourished, this is due to their diet of spice, special brew & Richmond cigarettes, which they claim gives them super human shoplifting abilities. The village gains its name from its founder Barry Creswell, who held the world record for most items shop lifted in under one minute and recently appeared on the hit TV show dancing on spice.

I heard the gameshow supermarket sweep was invented in Creswell, notts.
