A pathetic routine practiced by "hardcore" kids to really bad music. This style of moshing and the accompanying music ironically don't seem to have much to do with music at all, rather it is something these kids do to impress each other with their imaginary toughness.

Dancing usually done at emo/hardcore shows where people (I mostly only see the picking up change stuff at shows here) flail thair arms back in forth from the floor into the air like theyre trying to pick up change really fast. Ocasionally people will actually drop loose change and then people start going at it. The other dancing seems kind of dumb. It looks like Tai Bo but its fun to watch people going at pennies.
"I went to a show and got back about 75 cents of what I payed to get in while hardcore dancing becuase rich bitches kept dropping dimes and quarters and shit."

This is a very elegant type of dancing to show your sheer frustration at life and accompany the frustration of the emo/hardcore band that you are listening to.
You have no intent of harming those around you, its simply kicking out at the world around you or maybe just having a good time.
In comparison metalheads share a similar form of dancing known as the "mosh" which can somehow mould onto all their "variations" of music and furthermore if theyre feeling really brave they like to fuck each other up in a "mosh pit" where they have the intention of hurting one another - clever guys.
When not participating in their "mosh pits" they spend their time being angry at the scenester philosophy as they have nothing better to do than grow their hair and not wash.

hardcore dancing: elegant and emotionally charged flails.
moshing: contentless nodding of heads, reinforced by the breaking of eachothers noses.

Ok, I always had a nagging suspicion that emos and "hardcore" kids (emos with spiked hair who curse a lot) were pathetic faggots, but when I saw hardcore dancing for the first time, my preconceptions were confirmed. Hardcore dancing consists of some 90-pound little twat with greasy black hair flailing his limbs around, punching and kicking the air. Though annoying, pathetic, and downright retarded, it is a suitable method of dancing to emo and "hardcore" music, as the music takes no talent to create and sounds like a pack of whining retards, so the dancing should be similar. Hardcore dancing is a disgrace to moshing. You can say metal is a thing of the past all you want, because it doesn't make the present trends (such as emo) suck any less. Fags.

A combination of the mosh pit and soul train. In which a circle is formed as if to pit but instead is used to dance in.
Hardcore is an inferior bastardization of metal and Hardcore Dancing is an inferior bastardization of the pit.

Hardcore Dancing is an art, requiring, skill, talent, and good balance. To throw a spinkick into someone who's dancing like an asshole to teach them a lesson, or mule kick the twat that shouldn't be standing on the edge of the pit.. cartwheels, backflips off the stage, windmills, and picking up change. These are all things your average drunk college student tough guy TRIES to do when going into a pit at a random show he happen to be getting drunk at the bar at. Well, he's in for it, if the people dancing don't take too kindly to his retarted drunken antics. Granted it will probably start a fight, but he should have known better, even in the inebriated state hes in... and he probably won't feel the bashing until the morning, but his friends can tell him "dude, you got the shit kicked outta you last night"
What is really shitty, are these people with the false pretense that "hardcore dancing" is just running around in a circle, flailing your arms, and punching random people. It's people like these that would get their asses handed to them in a pit in New York. Side Note: Don't come near the pit with beer. Certain people, recently have had very good luck dropping numerous beers out of other peoples hands with pit opening kicks... trust me, it's never fun to have to clean the floor.
If you want to see a true display of the art known as "dancing" at shows, come out to N.Y. I will guarantee it'll change your whole outlook.

Picture a really heavy breakdown, or even just BEATdown, and a bunch of kids swinging, and kicking.. and then picture yourself catching a shoe to the face.. or better yet, the shoe flying off and heading straight for your head. YES, it has happened to me! I think I'd rather catch just the shoe, because it hurts alot more when the foot is still in it. haha

Dancing for real because you arent a drunk fucking bum, who smokes, and who lives off their parents money. Because you are not scene, because the scene kids who end up there and drink are found like radar and killed. All kids willing to say otherwise, are now known as 'scene' cause they cant except others, and cant disipline themselves enough to stop stealing their parents booze, and begging the guy right in front of jewel to buy them cigarettes. All you scene kid prep retards, can answer to me, and all the true edge kids, and kids who like music that brings upon truth and reality.
