Nice philosophy. I still stick to the fact that 'american nightmare' is not hardcore. It might be what you call hardcore. . There is hardcore bands today, but they're playing hardcore just like in the 80's. Same kind of music, different bands. Bands such as 'Direct Control', Government Warning, tippers gore. These are modern 'hardcore' bands playing the 'hardcore style' of music. American Nightmare is not an evolution of hardcore. They are something else. And it's really gay whatever it is.
@philthcollins what would you call them, if not hardcore? i'm not a huge fan of them either, i just don't know what other genre they would even come close to sounding like.
@philthcollins haha. you judge AN based on one of their slowest songs. What the hell was the first EP then? postmark my compass? what is it? smooth jazz?
This is not Hardcore. Hardcore is Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Minor Threat, Negative Approach, Negative FX, etc etc ETC. This is horribly, HORRIBLY gay. That blonde guitarist guy they keep doing closeups on....he got down syndrome? Lame.....
those are all 80ies bands.. If mainstream music would work this way, everybody would be listening the same 80ies mainstream music still. You can have you're opinions, but in 20 years or so, people will react in the same manner you just did: This isn't hardcore.. Yea it is, but it is evolving. Thank fuck for that. Furthermore I like the old HC bands also more. American nightmare were big in the ''emo-era'' of HC, which already evolved a alot different types of music.
ak-shoo-ally i beleeeeve they are considered hardcore thrashing drumming screaming stage diving ARG-core. I know sooo much more about music than you and also have a largerer penis.
I will never understand why Wes quit hardcore and literally change his style with band such as Ye Olde Maids and cold cave. Damn hes a living legend for what he brought to hardcore.
american nightmare is more than just hardcore thay are good AMERICAN music and i do agree they made it cool to sing about girls in "the scene" and if u dont like them u are a fucking fag and prolly think the used is hardcore
Hey remember that time when people enjoyed music instead of trying to prove something to people they'll never meet by attempting to discuss who came first and what this band did for the scene and which band is better on the fucking internet? Go to shows and make your own fucking history instead of getting your history from Wikipedia.

@xomnitftx AN didn't do shit for hardcore you fucking idiot.. name one thing they did for hardcore. being in a hardcore band doesn't mean shit. as i posted before, get their ballsacks off your chin you fucking dip shit.
single-handedly carried the new wave of boston hardcore in the early 00's. you wouldn't be listening to half the bands you do now if it weren't for american nightmare. get bent you fucking new jack.
@xomnitftx holy shit. you are fucking retarded. "single-handedly carried the new wave of boston hardcore in the early 00's." hardcore was here before AN and it's going to be here after AN. get bent you fucking new jack. take wes' cock out of your ass and shove it in your mouth.
@richardsucksx notice how i said NEW WAVE, and EARLY 2000's. thanks for trying to grab at straws and proving my point exactly. f-u-c-k-i-n-g n-e-w-j-a-c-k.
@xomnitftx you're right. if it wasn't for AN we would not have hardcore the way it is today. AN SAVED hardcore. god you're a fucking idiot. along with the majority of the people commenting.
@richardsucksx .............thank you! obviously he's never heard of slap shot,sam black church, converge, reach the sky, overcast ect. you hit the nail on the head!
@Str8Faced dude hardcore means (hardcore punk, its a genre, it derives from punk, associates with screamo, grindcore, noisecore, mathcore etc.) slayer is metal, they are two different genres. but both AMERICAN NIGHTMARE and slayer, are heavy bands. and also, slayer is a good band
@mahavishnuxc if the original new york hardcore scene kids saw these guys live calling themselves hardcore they'd die of laughter. It's kinda negative I know but it's true.
@Str8Faced maybe youre right, but just because you dont go crazy and break all shit around and get into fight with the audience (i actually saw a band called the american niggers who actually did that) doesnt make you any less hardcore. its the music that defies a band's genre not really the show. these guys definitely fit into the genre and maybe they are not as hardcore as most bands. you have somewhat of a point.
@Str8Faced True dat! I think the DMS kids would laugh themselves into hyperventilation. I miss hardcore from back in the day. I miss kids in khaki shorts, Adidas sneakers, shaved head and a hoodie....not this skinny jean wearing, emo haircut having bunch of kids that are in the scene now. Their foolishness in the pit would have earned them a good old passionate ass beating! haha
@magich8ball Khaki shorts, Adidas', shaved heads and hoodies, isn't what hardcore is about. That kind of shit is just as "scene", that's basically summing up Mr. Bro dude in the flesh; get that bullshit out of hardcore. Hardcore has nothing to do with being an xtoughx douchebag. Plenty of dudes who play real hardcore and were pioneers in punk/hardcore had long hair and tight jeans, you just sound like a new jack fool.
@N1CKISBR00T4L New jack fool? I've been listening to hardcore, punk, metal and all that other stuff longer than youve been alive. I'm only going with what was being worn when I started going to shows which was the mid to late 90's. However we didnt go out to get scene points or practice our pit/karate moves before a show. You wanna wear 300 dayglo bandannas and have tighter jeans than your little sister, have at it.
@magich8ball Well first of all you don't know how long I've been alive. Secondly, I think pit/karate moves and bandannas are just as lame as the next person.. but I'm just saying; it's kind of silly to compare what was being worn in the 90's and what is being worn now. Do their tight jeans and "emo" haircuts make them less worthy of a appreciator than you? Does it automatically just make them a pussy? Who gives a shit what's on their backs. You may have a sour taste in your mouth about kids with
@magich8ball tight jeans and "emo" haircuts; but I'm sure there's even more of a reason to dislike the typical shaved head, khaki wearing, penis flexing tough guy who prays on other peoples weaknesses like a coward. I'm not sticking up for either side, but hardcore wasn't defined by this 90's dress code, nor is defined now by kids with long hair and tighter jeans.
this is to the person muscle fan bla bla bla he has like one of the best screams in hardcore he screams his fukin lungs out and u can hardly understand wat hes saying which is even cooler wtf is wrong with u
I'm guessing stroskt is a scene kid that goes to shitty local shows tryin to act all cool with a hot topic shirt while he/sje texts friends in the back of the crowd. Anyone else agree??
frank isnt in this video.. if you knew your hardcore(no offense) then you would know that's tim cossar from TYF theres no proof he ever really played for these guys.
the worst band I've ever heard live is the Misfits when Glenn was with them...even though they're my favorite punk band. Evilive is a horrible album. However, the original Misfits still kick the soesohit out of American Nightmare...and I'm assuming this band took their name from the awesome Misfits song "American Nightmare"? Or not? Doesn't matter, these guys suck cock like Rob Halford literally does.
These guys are for sure the best hardcore band in the past 20 years. And about the vocals not being that great, hardcore live is not about perfect sound. Plus look how many times it is a fan singing anyway. If you retards want perfect sound go watch justin timberfake, and pay $150 to hear them play the CD
when you have one hundred screaming kids yanking on your mic chord, there's no room for being record quality awesome. best hardcore band in the past 20 years.
i could never understand why wes sucks live everytime ive ever seen this band or some girls. my favorite show they ever played was when members of converge took turns doing vocals and then some guy from st. louis. wes sucks...don't fool yourself by saying any less. american nightmare was bad ass however and definately were one of the few hardcore bands left. now hardcore just went to shit for the most part but don't get me wrong there are bands out there still playing good hardcore.
all these people saying that wes is doing a bad job. fuck hes doing the best he can with all the kids bumping into him. he only has one hand to do everything cut him some slack.
ahhh the great american nightmare.. pretty much changed hardcore for the past 10 years. if you dont like them, you probably dont know jack shit about REAL hardcore
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Guess what, this is just some more typical hardcore. A bunch of people showing off and trying to act tough. There's nothing special about screaming over hard riffs. Shit like this has absolutely no compositional elements besides "Hey, I think it's time for a breakdown, or possibly a chant".
Garbage.
And it's definitely not punk, whether you want to call it old school or not. Bad Religion is a good punk band. Exploited is brainless crap.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
im happy they died off, if people want good true punk check out the last The Exploited album and not emo with a bit of an edge shit... fucking faggots.
wes never did much live besides walk around looking like a dumb fuck who couldn't use his mic. i liked when they came to baltimore back in like 2002 and they had various members of converge/this cat from st. louis do vocals. those were the days. they didn't last too long.
This band was my favorite when they were around and I was really amped to see them live when they came to my city...
I've never been more disappointed by a live performance than by their show. Wes barely sung half of the songs (like he does here) and he barely shared the mic.
Nonetheless, I miss this band and wish they were still around.
honesty noneofyou know what your talking abut, fucking tards just listen to the music and have fun, stop labeling stuff. before i label you nazis, ahahahaha.
So, whoever said that gutg was screamo, does that make bands like comeback kid or champion screamo? bands that don't even scream. just because it's not from the 80's doesnt mean it's not hardcore. there are plenty of good bands that have come out in recent years.. if you cant cope. lock yourslef in your basement with a start today 7" and stay off the fucking internet
wow... you seriously need to pull your head out of your fuckin ass. what is your grudge? who gives a shit man. you're just some little kid who jumps on any opportunity to try and talk shit to someone.. grow the fuck up man.
i wouldnt call american nightmare/give up the ghost hardcore. being that there are so many genres and kids out there claiming to be hardcore... its better to say.. angry punk? this way it doesnt get associated with... emocore. and.. all that other shit.
you dumb fuck downtomatt this is not hardcore you retard..Go look up Negative Approach, Black Flag Or someone other then is Shit Music now a days sucks.
Couldn't even tell you how many times i've listened to the self-titled and Background Music... December 31st can't come soon enough.

i could never understand why wes sucks live everytime ive ever seen this band or some girls. my favorite show they ever played was when members of converge took turns doing vocals and then some guy from st. louis. wes sucks...don't fool yourself by saying any less. american nightmare was bad ass however and definately were one of the few hardcore bands left. now hardcore just went to shit for the most part but don't get me wrong there are bands out there still playing good hardcore.

Guess what, this is just some more typical hardcore. A bunch of people showing off and trying to act tough. There's nothing special about screaming over hard riffs. Shit like this has absolutely no compositional elements besides "Hey, I think it's time for a breakdown, or possibly a chant".
Garbage.
And it's definitely not punk, whether you want to call it old school or not. Bad Religion is a good punk band. Exploited is brainless crap.
American Nightmare is typical shitty hardcore.

1. gutg = not a tough guy hardcore band nor are they showing off.
2.he is screaming but its not over hard riffs the guitars are obviously more melodic
3. i heard no chant vocals in this song.
4. bad religion was a good band but punk isnt about sound its about not being mundane and not confirming. dick.

wes never did much live besides walk around looking like a dumb fuck who couldn't use his mic. i liked when they came to baltimore back in like 2002 and they had various members of converge/this cat from st. louis do vocals. those were the days. they didn't last too long.

American Nightmare...Give Up The Ghost...what's their official name?

This band was my favorite when they were around and I was really amped to see them live when they came to my city...
I've never been more disappointed by a live performance than by their show. Wes barely sung half of the songs (like he does here) and he barely shared the mic.
Nonetheless, I miss this band and wish they were still around.

ahaah are you fucking kiddding me. oh, i think we all missed the point when they said any band with throat vocals is screamo.
nothingoldcanstay12 4 years ago 2
So, whoever said that gutg was screamo, does that make bands like comeback kid or champion screamo? bands that don't even scream. just because it's not from the 80's doesnt mean it's not hardcore. there are plenty of good bands that have come out in recent years.. if you cant cope. lock yourslef in your basement with a start today 7" and stay off the fucking internet

I'm surprised you didn't add Minor Threat, Kill Your Idols, or Gorilla Biscuits to that list to try and down me as ignorant.
Go and continue to be an arrogant elitist old timer who is stuck in the 80's of Hardcore.

i wouldnt call american nightmare/give up the ghost hardcore. being that there are so many genres and kids out there claiming to be hardcore... its better to say.. angry punk? this way it doesnt get associated with... emocore. and.. all that other shit.
