voxpop Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 If I was 17 again I would join. My kind of 80's music. They were the days, dyed black crimped hair, black makeup and heavy black coats..... Now I'm a balding old fart into jazz and quiet music. How sad.... Why do we have to grow up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou24d53 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Everything on that site these days seems to be "metalcore", "post-core" or "post-metalcore"... I just wish I knew what it all meant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Which metal core is best for welding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyquipment Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Joy division is okay... I dunno about the rest though.. Bat-core rock-core gunge etc..!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJohnson Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I find it reassuring that a 17 year old is quoting Specimen in an advert. That alone deserves a thumbs up. What a band. New CD out too! P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruiner Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batcave_%28club%29"]http://en.wikipedia....cave_%28club%29[/url] Saw that ad this morning and thought it was refreshing to see a young whipper snapper whose idea of goth doesn't begin and end with marilyn manson. Good luck to them. Edited May 9, 2013 by Ruiner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 That would be ideal for me, alas I am t0o old. Next time I wear corpsepaint it will be for real. Surprise he didn't mention Fields of the Nephilim, or Early Sisters of Mercy, as both bands have amazing bassists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solo4652 Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 Well, you live an learn. In my ignorance, I thought the JMB poster was referring to Bruce Wayne's batcave as a sort of handy shorthand for goth music. The Wikipedia link educates me.

thunderbird13 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 My missus used to go to the batcave and I used to the same place when it was a sleaze rock club ( Decadence I think it was called ) We walked past it last month and of course its all boarded up now and will probably be turned into flats or a supermarket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr M Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 It's the Goth rock/post punk bit that confuses me. Or maybe my understanding (what understanding? ) of those genres is a bit out. [quote name='lou24d53' timestamp='1368093536' post='2073027'] Everything on that site these days seems to be "metalcore", "post-core" or "post-metalcore"... [/quote] +1. Since the singer-songwriter I was playing with had to move back up North (well, Midlands) I've been on the look out for something new. I don't know whether JMB just brings out the cynical side of me, but I'm yet to find any ad I'm interested in replying to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
