The new nu-metal



TRC combine the chagrin and angst of hardcore with some grime-style rapping. Read all about it over on guardian.co.uk/music.

By the way, synth-metal poster boys Enter Shikari are now doing dubstep.

Oh god, there's been so much Nuum talk recently I thought it was the OTHER hardcore. Which I thought did sound rather unspectacular.

er hardcore, especially the London "LBU" style isn't the new nu-metal. Not unless you don't know your shit.

Beyond the three vocalists and the one BBK shirt, what makes this in any way Grime-esque? Sounds like New York / New Jersey meathead hardcore from 10 years ago, a la Fury of Five... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m83eQRobLyM&feature=PlayList&p=E370849618526702&playnext=1&index=24

You know, it's kind of funny when you look at your article archives on guardian.co.uk and it brings up everything written by John Mcdonnell MP.

The image of John Mcdonnell MP blogging on Ugandan Dancehall and Serbian hip-hop and writing a Vice column brings a wee smile to my face.

is this a white power thing as well?

yes i believe, it is a white power thing, cleverly trying to disguise itself as a new nu metal thing affiliated to a grime thing (bbk). I believe this is the start of a croydon based race war.... clever barstards
