post-hardcore

A style of underground music that evolved from combinations of different genres of music. It combines elements of punk and hardcore/metal. Some also refer to bands that are post-hardcore as "emocore." Although many consider post-hardcore to be heavier and less main-stream than emocore. Post-hardcore includes screaming as the major vocalization technique within most songs, with melodic singing at other times. Some bands have a "screamer" and others who "sing," while still others have one lead vocalist who goes from screaming to singing throughout a given song.

Dude, I was at this show yesterday, there were some awesome bands, especially this one post-hardcore band that played at the end.

hard core

A label given to those who are at the top of what they do. Also given to those who have no fear of the consequences of what they do.

He is the most hard core biker I have ever seen.
That skate boarder where's no helmet or pads, he is so hard core.

stuck between a rock and a hard place

You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't

Either way you are in a mess and big trouble. You just aren't doing to well.

When my wife walked out because I wouldn't help her becuase I thought what she was doing was wrong. She gave me the choice to change my mind and follow her, if I really loved her, or sit at home and never see her again. I was really stuck between a rock and a hard place.

happy hardcore

A genre of electronic music that became popular during England's rave movement. Characterized by a processed 4x4 kick, breakbeats, baselines, and high strung synths and vocals, happy hardcore is the staple of any candy kid's listening experience. Drum & Bass also originated from happy hardcore and now are (ironically) anathema to one another. Where happy hardcore is known for it's happy, almost cheesy, lyrics and sounds, Drum & Bass is a much more aggressive, hard-edged sound that is a much harder pill to swallow, so to speak.

You're Not Hardcore

A dry, blatant response to an individual who by all means considers him/herself to be hardcore.

Jimmy: What did you do this weekend.
George: Holy Shit, Braa. I must've done like five girls while inhaling a line right off the bitch's ass.
Jimmy: You're not hardcore...

Kansas Hard Lemonade

Concentrated urine that is dark in color and harsh in odor much like that of a dehydrated fat man.

hard fucking

The opposite of gentle love making.

"So did you guys make tender music last night, Bill?"
"Shit, no! I gave Monica a dose of my hard fucking!"
