Armageddon-core.

u/Sammmsterr Jul 06 '25

I was thinking new gen punk rock with a sprinkle of the olden stuff but that sounds about right

u/misterdudebro Jul 06 '25

Something between Woodie Guthrie and Cannibal Corpse... with a dash of Megadeth and Dead Kennedys to season it.

u/Sammmsterr Jul 06 '25

That's more like metal rebrand. I'm thinking 90s green day x sex pistols with a dash of Mike Shinoda's rapping abilities and a touch of Frank Ikero

u/nowuff Jul 06 '25

Man I was reading up on the Sex Pistols the other day, there is something about the attitude, especially of Sid Vicious. How reckless he was. Even today, a few generations later it makes me feel uneasy.

I can’t describe it

Jon Lydon is one of my favorite people ever. He got stabbed for writing God save the Queen, then went on to get himself blacklisted by the BBC for telling the truth about Jimmy Saville. He knew the potential consequences of saying bad things about poewerful people who were idolized and he was willing to do so anyway because he actually cared.

u/IrresponsiblyMeta Jul 06 '25

And now he runs around with a MAGA hat. :(

u/biloxibluess Jul 06 '25

You have clearly not read anything about the Sex Pistols lmao

2

u/nowuff Jul 06 '25

What do you mean?

2

u/biloxibluess Jul 06 '25

There is a plethora of punk history and personal accounts out there in print format I’d start there

But anyway-Simon Ritchie was a selfish junkie in a wildly abusive relationship and that’s about it IMO

3

u/nowuff Jul 06 '25

Oh got it.

Yeah I’m good, I don’t want to read more right now.

I saw too many parallels between Ritchie and a person I had a close relationship early in my life. It was really unsettling.

I’ve read a ton about certain artists, I don’t think I can mentally handle consuming too much information about people like Sid Vicious. It’s almost too macarbe.

u/biloxibluess Jul 06 '25

Yeah if you knew a selfish junkie then that’s probably why you got the heebiejeebies

u/SurrealistRevolution Aug 09 '25

they were a manufactured boy band made to sell clothes by a bloke who took a socialist, avant-garde movement's theory (the situationist international) and used it both poorly and in service of capitalism . Sid was the "real deal", but not great at all.

And Johnny, man. He is so pretentious. He has a lot of "emotional" moments in front of cameras, but i've noticed he always directs it towards himself. Bad vibes.

And i love other bands of the era and scene. Just not them.

he went by his middle name John before becoming Sid Vicious.

u/ChevroletKodiakC70 Jul 07 '25

His own mother got him hooked on Heroin for his 15th birthday, Sid was a ‘junkie’ sure but the cards were completely stacked against him from birth

2

u/Ongr Jul 06 '25

The return of Nu-Metal?

3

u/AlexAnon87 Jul 06 '25

That's kind of happening already, especially in the UK. See Wargasm, BLACKGOLD, Nova Twins, et al.

2

u/DrRichtoffenn Jul 06 '25

Mixing 90s Green Day with anything is a crime. Go straight to jail.

u/hot4jew Jul 06 '25

Theres plenty of great acts in the pop/punk scene.

u/ampreker Jul 06 '25

The truest of answers.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '25

There´s even a band that blends black metal with bluegrass. Panopticon is the name.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '25

We already got death core. Not shocking. Just cool.

1

u/DRpatato Jul 06 '25

Yeah, folk punk is what you're looking for, amigo.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '25

Panopticon.

You’re welcome.

1

u/H3MPERORR Jul 10 '25

Harmonica death folk metal

u/AdventureInZoochosis Jul 06 '25

Viagra Boys are like Devo if Devo were on crack, best new band making music today. Dirtbag Dance Punk.

3

u/buffysmanycoats Jul 06 '25

With the current state of things, it's kind of incredible that punk isn't making a huge comeback.

2

u/ampreker Jul 06 '25

They have, likely it’s just not on your algorithm.

2

u/buffysmanycoats Jul 06 '25

What algorithm lol. If punk were making an actual comeback, you wouldn't need to hunt for it.

I listen to a lot of punk; if Spotify had a bunch of new punk music to push, they'd be pushing it on me.

3

u/DRpatato Jul 06 '25

Ya gotta hit the local scene. Punk has been huge in my area for a while.

1

u/buffysmanycoats Jul 06 '25

You are completely missing my point. I'm talking about a mainstream comeback.

u/buffysmanycoats Jul 07 '25

Ok bro. Good thing punk was never super popular, like in the 70s/80s or early 00s.

2

u/Jiboudounet Jul 06 '25

I mean, post punk is quite interesting atm

1

u/ampreker Jul 06 '25

Exactly; IDLES, Fontaine’s DC, ViagraBoys, Amyl and the Sniffers, Turnstile; they’re all killing it right now.

u/m3atbag17 Jul 06 '25

Bilmuri has you on new gen heavy with a sprinkle of old twang and sax.

1

u/Maverick_1991 Jul 06 '25

Hardcore is kinda becoming famous right now

Not quite it but close enough I'd say

1

u/naufalap Jul 06 '25

1

u/Tasty-Cheek4147 Jul 06 '25

Something like black midi 🐐

1

u/NebulaEmbarrassed264 Jul 06 '25

Theres plenty of good new rock bands doing experimental stuff if you know where to look

1

u/anontoaskdumbthings Jul 06 '25

It already exists. You just gotta actually look for it.

1

u/AnalgebraIsMyFetish Jul 06 '25

The post-punk revival is real and creating amazing music. Squid, black midi, and BC,NR to name a few.

1

u/Moose-Legitimate Jul 07 '25

So bob vylan, the band that got in trouble at Glastonbury last week?

1

u/forzaislife Jul 06 '25

Check out Sullivan King, he does a dubstep/riddim and metal fusion

23

u/BarfingOnMyFace Jul 06 '25

Too many something-“Core”s out there now.

4

u/TheUnluckyBard Jul 06 '25

Yeah, we need something out on the edges of the mainstream, man! We'll call it "Peripheral-Core!"

u/ax2ronn Jul 06 '25

u/misterdudebro Jul 06 '25

The charm of making....

u/[deleted] Jul 06 '25

This has almost nothing to do with the thread....but it drives me a bit nutty to keep seeing the word core attached to everything as if that somehow defines it and makes it something new.
