We human beings are used to placing things in little boxes smile.gif it feels good to know what's what, but to what end? I was hilariously amused to read a comment on one of my YT vids, which showcases a riff in the song called 'Seeds' by ARIA. The riff is very machinegun like and the comment stated: 'Wow dude! Typewritecore!' laugh.gif it feels great to have invented a new sub sub sub sub genre, but hey, after all, it's just music, ain't it?

How are you guys feeling about all the sub-genres people are using to define music nowadays - do you think it's better to say that one thing is classic metal and another modern for instance? It definitely feels much easier and less pressurizing on people, who won't sometimes know where to place a band when they talk about it smile.gif

As long as we don't go crazy on each other for not knowing some of the names as Ben said, it's ok!
