So is there anyone here with knowledge of music theory who can actually list the similarities between this and nu-metal? It's always been one of my fav post-hardcore albums, along with Yank Crime and now suddenly everyone's saying it's nu-metal? Have I been memed?
In the wake of our existence, in our memes and in our shitposts;
touch, see and behold the wisdom of the party program.
Essential in our lifetime and irresistible in our touch,
the great spirits proclaim that
poptimism is indeed organized crime and we are all the victims.
This next one is called /mu/ Party Program.

Why do you take them seriously
kekold shit
It's in no way nu-metal in my opinion, but you can really tell it's the beginning of metalcore though
I've always thought it was metalcore actually. All the slow passages to build up tension before the chorus are typical of metalcore.
There are similarities with nu-metal ( some grooves or "bouncy" riffs), though not as important to put Refused in nu-metal
Same with metalcore i guess

>Have I been memed
Yes, have you even listened to the record. It's like jazz with post-hardcore instrumentation and feeling, not even close to nu-metal.
>The Apollo Program Was A Hoax
>lyrics have nothing to do with the apollo program
Don't take memes too seriously, my dude.
WE DON'T HAVE THE PAAAATIENCE
WE'RE ALL DRESSED UP WE GOT SOMEWHERE TO GO
I GOT A BONE TO PICK WITH CAPITALISM
AND A FEW TO BREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE
IS IT NOISE OR SWEET SWEET MUSIC
Yes, you have been memed. There's like two songs with slightly nu-metal-ish riffs so since this is a "cool to hate" record for some reason (probably because "muh pretenshuz") some people invented this ridiculous meme that it's nu metal.
MONEYBUYSTHEACTION
it's funny tho, because honestly a lot of the instrumentals are very pleb-friendly (in that they're catchy... they know how to write a hook and the production isn't super raw or anything) but all my pleb friends who've heard me play this all say the exact same thing "LE VOCALS ARE HORRIBLE WTF"
It isn't nu-metal or post-hardcore, but it definitely had a massive influence especially on the latter and early-mid 00s FM radio rock in general (lots of super pleb bands worshipped them and such)
It's just funny who like that kind of music have no respect for the source material, but I guess that's often the case.

>It isn't nu-metal or post-hardcore
I meant to say metalcore, not post-hardcore. It is post-hardcore, duh.

CAN I MEME?
>>65155243
do people still do this? this is the RATM argument and it was tired back in 1996 when people were using it against them
no-one really cares, it's just catchy music. at the end of the day, politially charged lyrics make for a much more enthralling backdrop than singing about birds or some shit.
I doubt most of refused's listeners are particularly anti-capitalist or really care about their lyrics beyond the singalong value. I certainly don't.
And everyone knows Freedom was utter shit
>>65155399
>caring about lyrics
>>65155399
>being annoyed at people literally screaming how much more moral they are right into your ear and then being total hypocrites
yes, how strange

>implies music theory has anything to do with genres
>unironically cares about genres
>this is his favorite post-hardcore album
You probably would've hated the album if it was labelled nu-metal wouldn't you? This album is easily the most overrated post-hc album.
