GET CRUNK SKEET SKEET. (From wikipedia:)
[quote=Wiki]Crunkcore (also called crunk punk,[1] screamo-crunk, crunk rock,[2] and scrunk[3]) is a musical genre that combines crunk hip-hop with elements of screamo.[4] The Boston Phoenix described it as "a combination of minimalist Southern hip-hop, Auto-Tune croons, techno breakdowns, barked vocals, and party-till-you-puke poetics".[/quote]
Now. Before ANYONE says anything. I've been into this genre for quite awhile now, and I'm not just posting about brokeNCYDE. Although I thoroughly enjoy them, there are many other great undiscovered bands in this genre, that aren't AS bad.
Let's get the "crap" out of the way, shall we?
[highlight][u][b]BrokeNCYDE[/b][/u][/highlight]
[i]why god.[/i]
Love them or hate them, they're the most popular group out of this genre, and claim to have invented CrunkCore. They started out as more of an emotional rap group, before changing their sound to what we know today. The members and their role in the group:
[quote]Steven (David) Gallegos ("Se7en") – lead vocals
Michael Shea ("Mikl") – clean vocals
Julian McLellan ("Phat J") – keyboards, synthesizers, programming, vocals
Anthony Trujillo ("Antz") – fog machine[/quote]

and one of my favorites out of all of them:
Goose Gogglez

and if you want to look up their new album, "guilty pleasure", it doesn't involve nearly as much screaming.
[highlight][u][b]Dot Dot Curve :)[/b][/u][/highlight]
[i]and you thought BrokeNCYDE's lyrics where bad..[/i]
Dot Dot Curve, although not as known as BrokeNCYDE, receives the same amount of hate. (and love) They claim to be the inventors of crunkcore.

Yeah, never guessed they where crunkcore, did you? Popular for their single "Don't Trust Me." One of my favorite bands.

I'll probably put more in this thread later.
You can hate as much as you want in this thread.
only one i mildly enjoy is 3oh3, and that's just because their songs are catchy
[editline]25th January 2012[/editline]
also id starstrike katy perry any day ifyouknowwhatimean
I honestly just feel as if there's potential in this genre, just no one has done it right yet.
How to create a crunkcore song guaranteed for success:
1. Find an uninspired drum beat, the simpler the better.
2. Repeat a synth hook over the drums.
3. Scream incoherently into your mic. Add some distortion for best effect.
4. Ad-lib a rap about how tragic your life is.
5. Break down into nasally whining for a few seconds.
6. Repeat steps 3-5.
7. Publish using any method desired.
8. Watch the money flow in.
3oh3 came to the University I attend and students got free tickets. So I went and got my tickets aaaand sold them. There is no excuse.
I actually like crunkcore.
OP, would you consider I Set My Friends On Fire to be crunkcore?

I think they'd fall under it
Also Get Crunk by BrokeNCYDE- fucking great song lmao.
Family Force 5 is actually fucking awesome but I've not got any of their music yet. Hollywood Undead's sweet
I really like Millionaires haha but I've never really thought of them as crunkcore even though I've heard them called that. They're more just like dance pop or something

Also waiting for stizzles to rave over dropping a popped locket
[editline]25th January 2012[/editline]
Also I've heard Breathe Carolina described as crunkcore and I fucking LOVE them lol. I'd more say they were just like powerpop with post-hardcore or something though but I guess that isn't far off

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWul4htALls[/media]
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2S3RvIHwGs[/media]
Their first album is totally underrated
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDMKuNCqGss[/media]
And their cover of Down by Jay Sean for Punk Goes Pop 4= AMAZING
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5k3_7TYwiY[/media]
Also going by this they sound like 3oh3 who i've never listened to before but I need to check them out more because they remind me of Breathe Carolina
Where is stizzles he is the crunkcore master
Breathe Carolina is amazing, one of my favorite bands, but I still don't see how they're classified as crunkcore. Same goes with Millionaires, until i heard this song:

Yeah, I would actually now that I think about it.
I honestly can't believe that there actually is a market for this kind of [B]horrible fucking SHIT[/B].
One thing I can't understand either is that there are actually people who are like, "Yeah, this is some good shit yo".
Holy fuck what is this shit?!

design the skylines hilarious
stuck in 2007 but they're almost like parody only they're srs.
they've got some interesting kinda weird mathcorey passages (well its not really mathcore but that kind of idea I guess)but their synthcore autotuned voices are really bad
plus they look like the biggest faggots on earth
[editline]26th January 2012[/editline]
also listening to that song, dat lack of structure!!
[editline]26th January 2012[/editline]
their other songs arent so messy and weird tho iirc. not listened to the album but heard a couple other songs that were admittedly less terrible
everything about the op makes me want to kill myself
EDIT: also how is a fog machine an instrument
[QUOTE=sudge;34399550]everything about the op makes me want to kill myself

he actually does backup vocals, it's actually just a inside joke in the band, because that's what he does during live performances.

all the technical stuff, not just fog machine, lololol.

I came to this thread for some serious lols and I leave dissapointed.
beat me to it OP, didn't expect that

[QUOTE=Vedicardi;34405663]stizzles listens to them it makes me laugh so hard[/QUOTE]
they're ridiculous, dumb and awful but I like that about them. And the music has pretty much everything I want from a metalcore band, so ofc I listen to them lole
[editline]30th January 2012[/editline]
why the fuck are Design The Skyline in here though, they have nothing AT ALL to do with this genre
I can't tell if Brokencyde are trolling or if they actually don't realise how shit they are.
i would be legitimately pleased if every crunkcore 'musician' got some sort of incredibly painful terminal illness. but i'm not sure if i'd want them to just die or to suffer for an extended period of time THEN die
I don't mean to be one who judges a book by a cover (even though I am), but holy shit they all dress like idiots. The worst part is is that they probably think they look nice.

i knew there would be one band i would forget about, I completely forgot about dropping a popped locket, haha. i don't care much for his solo stuff, but when he's featured or has features in his songs they are pretty good :O
He's my favourite crunkcore artist.
(cue ignorant people claiming he's not an artist just because they don't like his genre)

was he in dot dot curve for like, a couple months or something? lol, because they have a photo together that I see that they use for DDC quite a lot, but he's edited out on the newer versions.

Yeah he was for a really short time, then a shit load of drama happened, I don't even know the details but he's made some anti-Spanky songs because of it, lmao
I like Dot Dot Curve.
[QUOTE=Dergon King;34486577]I like Dot Dot Curve.[/QUOTE]
So do I, I don't give a single fuck about whatever happened between them.
so i'm guessing that's why this song was made? (when they where together)
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8Bi2Fr322M&feature=related[/media]
they should have stayed together > . < all of them. jayreck shouldn't have left either. I mean, I like spankys new stuff, it reminds me of old brokencyde, but god, they would have gotten so good if they would have stayed together.
I actually like Spanky's new stuff better.
[QUOTE=Dergon King;34486685]I actually like Spanky's new stuff better.[/QUOTE]
I actually haven't listened all that much to his new stuff, didn't really find anything interesting the times I checked it out.
Till the Wheels Fall Off is a good album though, pretty much love all those songs.
