Hardcore's been around since the 80's, which is not before Cannibal Corpse . . .as for the rest of it, I don't know. I do know that Cannibal Corpse is grindcore, probably one of the best known grindcore bands around.

Woo, I remember the first time I heard them. It's rather sweet, actually. I was in eight grade and absolutely adored this one boy and one day we were all sitting in a circle listening to music and he's like, "hey, what are you listening to?" and I'm all like, "60's hippie music!" and he's like, "Listen to this," and I did and his headphones smelt like him and at first I was like, "Oh wow, this is great," just to impress him . . . but after five minutes, I actually listened and really meant it when said, "This *really* is great!"

Im sorry but if you compare C.C. to the likes of Pig Destroyer, Dillenger Escape Plan, and the like, there are FAR too many dissimilarites. When compared to death metal, and other such metals, cannibal corpse falls much further on that side. Growling vs. yelling, guitar metal solos vs. "grinding" riffs, even the drumming.

I cant see how you would call Cannibal Corpse grindcore, thats like calling Morbid Angel grindcore, or Six Feet Under, i believe the genre's are different. Just MHO.

I fucking LOVE Pantera, its really a shame that they wont be making in more music for a while, or ever. Songs like "Im broken", "5 Minutes Alone", "10's", "Cemetary Gates", "Planet Caravan (cover)", "Floods", along with EVERYTHING off the Great Southern Trendkill album, still fucking amaze me.

It really sadens me that we lost such a great and talented metal artist. Along with this, they are from Dallas, VERY close to where im from, and i have played shows at THE VERY CLUB they were discovered at, it really makes me sad:(

Pantera was amazing tho

Hardcore is not grindcore and hardly metalcore. I like grindcore and metalcore and hardcore.

I like the screaming and hardcore dancing is just FUN.

Agreed and agreed. My band is mostly hardcore punk with some elements of grindcore and doom thrown in here and there.

Are there any other hardcore punk bands around that have horror-tinged lyrics?
