If there’s one genre of heavy music I’ve grown a bit tired
of, it’s this genre of “post-hardcore” blended with pop-punk elements, a genre
that doesn’t truly have a name but they seem to be taking over the world. Bands
such as Pierce the Veil and Blessthefall all fall under this
sub-genre with their distorted music behind a singer who sounds like he (or
sometimes she) could be singing modern day pop hits, but occasionally they don’t
shy away from screaming, as well the bands don’t shy away from using the odd
electronic element. These are the kind of bands that appeal to kids who don’t
generally like heavy music but not-so surprisingly find appeal in these bands.
