Here's my musical truth: In what is commonly referred to as the rock & roll music/songwriting/performing arts industry/business, the idea of "playing for yourself" is complete and utter bullshit. Does not exist. Nope, zero, nada, zilch, fuck you punk rock/hardcore astehtics/Henry Rollins. Does not exist. If you pick up an instrument and are going to play places outside of your house and charge people for it/expect to make a living off it, you play for other people, and you have no business whatsoever playing anything than what your fans tell you to do.

I agree with what you just said, except for what I bolded, which I don't agree with at all.

I've realized that The Offspring is the heaviest band of all time

I also think I've come to realize that melodic metalcore is worse than deathcore.

Examples?

Also, Five Finger Death Punch have the best lyrics I've ever heard.

It's just a personal preference, but most melodic metalcore is so predictable with "heavy verses" and "soaring chorus with clean vocals" with some stupid breakdowns thrown in there.

They're both unbearable, but I think it'd take me longer to kill myself at a Suicide Silence performance than a Killswitch Engage performance.

You're kidding, right? All deathcore sounds the same. All the breakdowns are the same...they are all 'brutal'....so bad.
