Doesn't a hipster generally try to stay ahead of the curve?

They play deathcab on the radio, and my 15 year old cousin started listening to chiodos like 10 years after all the hipsters were into metalcore.

D+ for effort, make better references.

Hipsters were never into metalcore, only socially awkward pseudo-sXe faggots listened to shit like Job for a Cowboy and Amarna Reign...

While that was going on, hipsters were into post-rock shit like Russian Circles or Pelican, so before you give out lectures in current trends ATLEAST know what the trends were.

and right now hipsters are on "throwback" so their listening to more and more streetpunk like Monster Squad since that's what is being predominantly played in underground venues over the last year.

You wanna be an individual right? You look like you're wearing a uniform.

I describe it as "metalcore" only because it's what people know now. When hipsters were into "metalcore" it was Poison the Well, early Eighteen Visions, stuff like that. Then once they got cool they threw it back to early HC/Punk like Bad Brains and stuff, which held solid right through until the Art-Core/Post-Hardcore you mention.

In Toronto the hip seem to have just gotten over the whole Daftpunk/Justice "dancing is cool again" thing and it seems to be working its way towards yet another grunge throwback. Lots of shitty bands trying to sound like Sonic Youth. At least there's not as many Indie-Folk bands making boat analogies as there were last year...

I don't know there seems to be about 40 indie/folk bands popping up a day where I live.

Depends on what age bracket, I knew kids who would suck the collective dicks of "Poison the Well" but they were like 17, anyone above 21 and into counter-culture was all about Pelican and or Isis at the time, I would agree that "metalcore" was hip because it was some unknown at the time, but I would disagree that it meets the criteria of being a hipster... It was more of a fad for 17 year old skatepunks than it was for $10 latte sippin', veganism adhering hipsters.

But my scene is pretty hard, Indiana is home to some great crust/sludgecore and black metal bands as you can see here:

Plus we got legit as bands such as "Whore spit Windex" "Slutbanger" and "Slam dunk!"


That's right, clutch ass band names
