This is something I've been pondering for a while. What defines post-hardcore music as a whole? I imagine it as the hardcore version of post-punk, but that doesn't always work.
"Hardcore post-punk" works for bands like Fugazi, The Jesus Lizard, Big Black and Slint, along with many others. Those I understand the post-hardcore tag.
Then we have modern post-hardcore bands like Pierce The Veil, Escape The Fate, From First To Last, or pretty much anything on Rise Records. These don't sound like the above bands at all, they sound like wimpy emo faux-metal that sucks.
And... Obvious bias aside, can anyone answer this question?
I guess anything that sounds like a mix of Led Zeppelin and Nickleback. Personally, I'd call this post-hard rock because it's a hard rock song made after the whole "hard rock: scene was gone:
Hey, hey, people! 🤣 I said I know practically nothing about the genre! Cut me some slack! 🙁 Why don't you tell me and not just Ray? Great, now I'm AotD 1027...
