yeah its not problem. i just cant stand this whole hate on tdwp thing. people get so lost in what music is made to do and crap like that. its all about making connections with the music. i can connect with tdwp's lyrics and i like their style of music. if people don't agree with me thats fine, its not about what other people think. music is simply a personal choice of what you happen to like. i like the smashing pumpkins and i like tdwp. and for everyone who wants to know, billy corgan is a Christian. so just for everyone who is in a bash Jesus mode knows.

yeah i really love how easy it is to relate to their music. i think far too many people make ridiculous conclusions about them because they're a christian metalcore band. if they gave them a listen, they'd realize they're better than most of the bands in their genre, christian or not.

I don't classify bands by genre. Seriously why not listen to actual good "heavy" bands such as The Red Chord, Converge, #12 Looks Like You, Dillinger Escape Plan or Mastodon .Those bands are way more hardcore than TDWP. Dont worry TDWP will be forgotten in a few years. That is a fact not an opinion.

None of those are hardcore bands either... Try Bane, Comeback Kid, Gallows, This Is Hell, Black Flag, American Nightmare, Have Heart, etc.

I know those bands aren't hardcore they are metal and such. I was just using that term loosely like people use br00tal. I love most of those bands you mentioned. The only ones I dislike are Gallows and Have Heart,

because they were honest about their opinions on music?
the pompous arrogance on the part of some of the users on this site (not you, just people in general) is absolutely disgusting. i did not vote on this ridiculous poll because there is no point. SP will win in a landslide, and people on this site will do the usual make fun of TDWP or other "Christcore" bands.
as i said earlier, i can connect with both bands music, and TDWP's a little more. Yes, I am Christian, so I enjoy "Christcore" of whatever people wanna call it. I also enjoy "good" hardcore bands like Between The Buried and Me, Dillinger Escape Plan, and Underoath (call them Christcore if you wish).
Music is not about who is more talented, it is not about record sales (OK, it is to a certain extent.), it is not about how much fame you can build, music is about making that connection with the artist. If that is SP for you, thats awesome. If is TDWP, or Brokencyde, or Aiden, or Breathe Carolina, or Kanye West, does it really matter? No, the point is that music is each person's opinion. You cannot tie facts to what people will listen to in a few years. The future has not happened yet, I might be listening to TDWP in a few years, I might not. I might not even listen to metal/hard/Christ/Power/grind or whatever kind of "core" music you can think of.
P.S. If you make a poll thread, I would like to kindly ask whoever makes it to make it on something that is actually poll worthy. Anyone could have seen the outcome of this poll.

:shrug: i just think from every standpoint of music that Smashing Pumpkins obviously blow away The Devil Wears Prada. Its' not that they play chirstian metalcore; they play BAD christian metalcore, which just makes it worse. lyrically, musically, every aspect of smashing pumpkins is better than TDWP. i don't even listen to the smashing pumpkins; i don't have a single one of their songs on my computer or own a single one of their CD's, but i still realize that & it's sad that someone would think to compare 2 bands that are so ridiculously different, especially one that isn't even any good in it's own genre, not to mention nothing compared to probably one of the most influential bands of the last 20 years or so.

my bad dude. i did not mean to make you feel like i was going off on you. some pent up anger from other threads lol. i like both bands, and the point i was trying to make is that music is more about personal connection rather than what is deemed better. the idea that certain bands are better than one another is sort of ridiculous on its own merit though because again it is all opinion. i am not arguing that TDWP is a much better band than SP, I am simply saying that some people can connect with TDWP over SP, and that is cool too.
again i am sorry man, didnt wanna make it sound i was going off on you. the pompous arrogance part has partly to do with the TDWP hate threads, which are far too many in number. i understand that most everyone on here hates them, and i dont need a reminder lol.

i understand what you are saying, and you dont sound like a prick. i should clarify what i mean. i think that it is cool that people hate TDWP. thats fine, but what pisses me off is the terrible disrespect that people give bands. if you dont like a band cool, but dont wish people dead. dont mock their faith. that is what i meant. i know that people couldnt care any less about what i listen to, it is just a matter of respect. i dont like radiohead, but i dont go on here trashing them, because i respect the connection that people make with them. thats where i was going with the connection part, a connection can be a personal one, but has to do with the music and how it makes you feel. so i hope that clarified it. i in turn did not mean to sound like a jerk and if i did, my apologies.

I just realized you are from Dayton, OH which is where TDWP is from right? Does that explain why you need to defend them. People bash all sorts of bands I like on here but I rarely find the need to defend them. I can understand someone liking them but I don't get why those people don't admit how generic and trendy they are.

well i am from the southern part of michigan/northern ohio, so its sorta by dayton (i am about 2 or 3 hours away). that might be part of it, being close to where they are from, but i have met them and they are really cool dudes. i do think that many of their fans are into the music for the scene, but i like their music (you can call me crazy lol). is the music generic, yeah i would say it is, but i like it lol.
i am sorry man, i agree with you in a lot of other threads, and i dont wanna make it sound like i am trying to bash you in other posts. i guess some people get to me a little bit and i do my "angry replies." when i have time to chill out, i usually regret it. sorry if there was any confusion man.

Your fine dude this is the internet and apologies aren't usually needed. I do see where your coming from dude. I don't think they are as bad as people say they are. Generic yes but unlistenable no. They are a great live band though. I saw them open for Chiodos twice and they were so full of energy and stoked to be playing

yeah i saw they play with Maylene once too, and that was a good time. Chiodos live is fantastic, i just saw them again last month and that was incredible. them and anberlin are probably my two favorite live bands. but i still havent seen norma jean, the chariot, incubus, defotnes, tool, and a lot of my other favorites so the jury is still out on the best live band i have seen.
smashing pumpkins by a fucking mile, can't have it any other way.

You don't listen to The Beatles or The Beach Boys or any other band before your time either?
i dont listen to most bands before my time (like the beatles OR the beach boys) but i bet if i were 14 during the 90s i would've been a Smashing Pumpkins fan.

Edit: nice avatar btwi don't understand this. why can't you listen to anything that was 'before your time?' the smiths broke up before i was born, but they are one of my favorite bands of all time. i listen to a lot that i wasn't around for or was too young to know about. point is, you shouldn't just write off a band because they're 'too old for you.' a lot of older stuff is better than half the crap these days.

uhhhhhhhh weird ass comparison i would've said the pumpkins if their new stuff was good or if they put on a good live show which they havent been doing either...
Tdwp however did come out with a really good album and puts on a great live show, if your a fan of hardcore. if your not then of course you bash them for sucking blah blah blah and call everyone who likes them ****

But this band just simply is not hardcore. That's like calling Britney Spears a rapper.Ok. Hardcore has evolved. Sure, you can put on the facade of some uber-elitist minor threat/gorilla biscuit/youth of today fan and say all these new "screaming" bands are not hardcore. However, you would be invariably wrong.
People consider The Matches a punk band. Just because they don't sound like the Sex Pistols doesn't mean they aren't a punk band.
The Devil Wears Prada have musical roots in Metal and Hardcore. Some would call them Metalcore. The point is, calling them a hardcore band is not false. There is a new breed of Hardcore, and just because you don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
I'm not expecting you to respond to this and agree. This is for everybody else to read in response to your lack of knowledge.

Why do you refuse to listen to older music? Mainstream music was actually good in the 60s and 70s unlike it is today. I have pretty much only been listening to older bands for the last two months and I am surprised by how consistently amazing that stuff is.The majority of bands that influenced the bands you like are probably more that 14 years olds. Refusing to listen to music because it is old is just plain dumb. It does kind of explain why you think Dance Gavin Dance is one of the best bands ever. Most older music is better than most of the music nowadays

OK I misquoted you. Why are you not interested in older music? When people knock on you for being 14 and making dumb comments saying this silly shit this just fuels the fire.

I don't know, I just don't enjoy listening to it. I don't listen to much of anything before the '90s besides maybe Bruce Springsteen. I don't know why, I just don't.
