There is nothing wrong with a band using backing tracks live. It's not a new thing either. Nor is it exclusive to "metalcore". Nor does it imply lip syncing. Pink Floyd did it on the wall tour in 1980. Laptops didn't even exist yet. Sit down old angry men

Hardcore has always been about social injustice and unity, hard to believe there are so many racist dipshits who are somehow morally at odds with the bands that they listen to now they are using the platform and speaking up. Just go and listen to trapt Kyle. Hardcore lives

Always triggers me when someone from the music industry takes credit for the success of an artist. Yes Management, label and the ecosystem play a huge role in servicing an artist. But they need vision, songs, and someone to sing them. Success starts and finishes with the artist

If a manager can’t generate an income for their artist, they don’t deserve to profit from them, otherwise there’s no incentive. I think that this article is trash.
