Postcore

... the genre complex also known as post hardcore by some philistines. Think of anything smart, elaborate and artsy to have ever come out of the hardcore scene like, say, '80s & '90s Dischord groups. Math rock and -core. Oldschool emocore and anything adjacent to any of these. Whatever else fits in there somehow. It may have overlaps with genres like post punk and noise rock. Hard to distinguish in many cases anyway. Post old and new stuff. Let's not be too pedantic over genre definitions. One rule though: please keep it distinct from screamo and metalcore stuff, as there are already better suited communities existing for these genres.

Exciting shit in the realm of noise rock, postcore and garage punk on this Tokyo group's newest EP showcasing quite a bit of stylistic variety. Proto-Being crashes right out of the gate like a mix of Multicult, Tar and Drive like Jehu. Slug then exhibits a more catchy, melodic sensibility akin to, say, Bitch Magnet, Polvo or Chavez. Evidence has some acid-drenched proto punk vibe to it like MX-80 colliding with early The Men plus a hint of Wipers and last but not least, Disconnect radiates some distinct Hot Snakes-meeet-Nation Of Ulysses kind of energy.
