Electronica - Post-hardcore Fusion

Post-hardcore Fusion

In the mid to late 2000s, many electronic post-hardcore that bands that were newly formed began receiving attention. I See Stars's debut-full length album, 3-D and metalcore band, Attack Attack!'s debut album, Someday Came Suddenly, set a precedent for newer bands of this style.

The first single from Someday Came Suddenly, "Stick Stickly", was released on June 4, 2009. It reached a good amount of popularity as it spawned a music video as well as its inclusion as downloadable content for Rock Band 2 via the Rock Band Network in March 2010. Canadian post-hardcore band, Abandon All Ships further popularized this genre. Upon being signed to Rise Records, the band had a large success with their single "Take One Last Breath". British metalcore band Asking Alexandria expanded on the traditional electronica sounds in their cover of Akon's "Right Now (Na Na Na)" on Punk Goes Pop 3.

These bands often play songs that contain "dancable beats, with some breakdowns splashed in."

Famous quotes containing the word fusion:

    The sadistic person is as dependent on the submissive person as the latter is on the former; neither can live without the other. The difference is only that the sadistic person commands, exploits, hurts, humiliates, and that the masochistic person is commanded, exploited, hurt, humiliated. This is a considerable difference in a realistic sense; in a deeper emotional sense, the difference is not so great as that which they both have in common: fusion without integrity.
    Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
