0% Mercury — “We Should Definitely Do This!”

0% Mercury x Dzadniprovskiy

If you feel like
You’re lost in the forest
Will you set yourself free? So are you are you pretending?
And it takes you not nine but nine hundred lives
Your should go to till the end
You must not miss your chance you should go till the end
And even (and even) your demons (your demons) will guide you
Take it take take it take it all
Together (together) we’ll change this world
(So take my hand let’s do it)
Let’s dance!
Once more with feeling!

Avant-garde beatdown hardcore of the new school

Beatdown hardcore (also known as heavy hardcore, brutal hardcore, toughguy, moshcore, or simply beatdown) is a subgenre of hardcore punk with prominent elements of heavy metal. Beatdown hardcore features aggressive vocals, gang vocals, heavy guitar riffs and breakdowns and lyrics discussing unity, brotherhood, volatile interpersonal relationships and machismo. The genre has its origins in late 1980s New York hardcore bands such as Breakdown, Killing Time and Madball, and was pioneered in the mid-1990s by bands like Bulldoze, Terror Zone and Neglect. The definition of the genre has expanded over time to incorporate artists increasingly indebted to metal, notably Xibalba, Sunami and Knocked Loose.

Kyiv-based metalcore / melodic hardcore band formed in the summer of 2019. The band’s discography currently includes one EP.

Metalcore is a fusion genre combining elements of extreme metal and hardcore punk, that originated in the late 1980s. Metalcore is noted for its use of breakdowns, which are slow, intense passages conducive to moshing, while other defining instrumentation includes heavy guitar riffs often utilizing percussive pedal tones and double bass drumming. Vocalists in the genre typically perform screaming, more popular bands often combine this with the use of standard singing, usually during the bridge or chorus of a song. However, the death growl is also a popular technique within the genre.
