Hardcore And Death Metal: Two Great Tastes That Taste Great Together

Here's a fun exercise: Try to keep up with all the non-hardcore music that's popular in the hardcore community at any given time. It's always changing! And it's always pretty weird! Right now, the list goes something like this: Oasis, Alice In Chains, Griselda, Three 6 Mafia. Sepultura and Slipknot seem to be perennial favorites. Type O Negative continue to get a lot of love. A couple of years ago, people were heavily namechecking the Stone Roses, but it seems like that's died down. And then there's old-school death metal. Right now, old-school death metal is king.
