The NME are so rubbish at this, I'm sure we can do better, I'll start you off.

"Rock N Prole" - The Enemy, The Twang, The Verve, Oasis etc etc, an ironic scene for bands who bang on that they are so working class that they eat coal for breakfast..

If this has been done before I apologise, couldn't find a thread on it anywhere..

always wanted to do

NØ METAL, which would be playing as heavy as possible acousticly - think there's a reason it's not been done and would probably sound as bad as death metal funk.


that sounds like

impaled northern moonforest... but not as good


bollocks

it's like that episode of south park "the simpsons did it already"... :(


I had one ages ago

for a joke band I was considering putting together. SLUDGECRUST. It would probably have been very droney and heavy and nobody in the band would be allowed to wash.


there was a band called Sludgefeast a few years ago

on Must Destroy records. They did a pretty fun 7" called 'It's On', then seemed to disappear.


'shit on your shoegaze'

a mix between shitgaze and shoegaze.


hmmm

fuckoffyoupedantictwats-core

Whyhaseverymaninthisroomgotabeard n Roll

Theres two for starters


I like the sound of

Whyhaseverymaninthisroomgotabeard n Roll, more details please.


Well basically,

I've been to some gigs and looked around and thought, literally all the men here have got beards. All of them.

The facial hair ratio gets out of control.

For evidence of this effect go to an ATP or any show where a band from the Thrill Jockey stable are playing.

And I'd like a list of bands who attract the beard wearers of society and then create a scene based around them.


howabout

the-new-wave-of-the-old-wave-of-new -wave-british-heavy-metal...?

Whitesnake and Def Leppard touring FTW, and the continued resurgence of Iron Maiden, aww yes! bullet for my facking Valentine can frankly fuck off.


Remogrime...

the flamboyance of romo crossed with the emotional impact of emo. With an MC.


Gwyme

Like Grime, but more twee.


Crunch.

Crunk meets grunge.


Casiodrone - funeral doom played on a keyboard

or Politigoth - all the joy of goth but with a subtle trotskiest political agenda for extra fun.


Spazz and Spunk

When the universal psychedelia of Space meets the heady rhythms of Jazz and Funk.

Actually thinking about it Sun Ra is probably 'Spazz'


what! what! what!!

no way, Spazz is Space Jazz!


Post PWN

LOLcore
OMGaze


NO WAI!ve

ORLYmo


thanks for comin out

keepin the scene alivvvvvvvvvvvvee


It's all about

Postcore.

Or Mediocore (very average post hardcore).


Haha!

Lovin' Mediocore!


Mediocore will never die!

(Unfortunately)


shatbagwankinthemirrorcockrocklite

ftw....thanks to Mag4 for that one.


what happened to

regular fries ?


wish i knew... 2 patchy albums

but some fantastic eps. They were well underrated. I still dip into their Breezeblock mixes that I have on tape.


Applecore!

Strictly for bands with 'Apple' in they're name
Appleseed Cast
Apples in Stereo
um...... ?


PsyclownCore

A mix of psy trance and clown core


Ship Hop

MCs doing the lindy on a cruise liner.


PiratePop

Hot club?


Baroque 'n' Roll

Harpsichord-infused rock with intricate melodies and band-members wearing ruffs.


Haha

...you know what they say, 'If it's not Baroque, don't fix it'

Oh the shame.


twatcore

a few years back we decided it would be a good genre so then formed a band to fit.

we were called world of carpets - it was a toss-up between that and furniture village


easy listening-core

getting down and dirty with the Muzak.


haunted house

not so much a scene, but a genre, i guess, but i've wanted to do it for ages. it would be like house music, but made for goths and have loads of easy unsettling noises under the thumping beats. it sounds amazing in my head.


Icore

:all music made on Garage Band


Surely that would be

iCore, if you follow Apple's stringent brand guidelines?


Blimey-Core

Post-hardcore with a Carry On/dirty British film sense of humour.
Imagine:
"Can you slow down?" says the drummer, "you're playing too fast, I can't keep up!"
"Really? Perhaps my wife would be better! Whoa missus!"


Vagina Rawk...

bit like Cock Rawk (think Oasis et al), but for gurlz.


or how about Post-Op Rock

for the transitionals?


Or Post-It Note Rock

For people with memory problems?


In just three posts...

We created a nu music scene called 'Vagina Rawk'.

We evolved this scene with 'Post-Op Rawk'.

Then formed genres derived from this scene, "Post-it Note Rock".....

We're clearly visionaries, let's form a band!


chEmo


...

Goosestep (Nazi flavoured Dubstep..or two step Garage)
No Gaze (for blind musicians)
Postlife (for deceased musicians)


Pubstep


Silence-core. Cage would be our hero.

Or as a softer and easier alternative to 'industrial' I give you:

domestic.

Beats that sound like the thrum of a washing machine on a spin cycle.


Next to

the Chufftronica section, at the back of the shop.


ha ha ha ha ha

look at all those comedy genres!

Hang on. Ambient Metal. Ambient metal exists (sunn o))), Boris etc). I listen to ambient metal. What am I some sort of joke now? How am I funny? Am I like a clown?


pre-rock

you work it out


Omnicore


Surely

bands who claim to be working class like the enemy etc should be categorised rock n' dole?
