    Default Straightedge hardcore/metal

    I can't find many good straightedge metal/hardcore bands, looking for stuff like this:

    Brocore/moshcore sucks. Check out:

    - In My Eyes
    - Youth of Today
    - Bane
    - Good Clean Fun
    - Gorilla Biscuits
    - Champion
    - Look Back and Laugh
    - Refused
    - Vitamin X
    - 7 Seconds



    But you'd probably like stuff like Earth Crisis instead.

    What's wrong with sober people? I choose to stay in control of myself and not inject poison in me. If you really have a problem with straightedge why did you post here?

    OP: I'd definitely recommend Slapshot

    Seriously people, no Minor Threat mention yet?

    Also:

    Have Heart
    Empty Vision

    oh and YoT and GB are awesome >:3

    If you want some serious hardline, borderline ridiculous metalcore shizzle, check Bleeding Through.

    Minor Threat are too good, it's assumed everyone knows them.

    Hardline is like hardcore for vegan conservatives.

    The singer kicked my mate in the head, by accident, and later, the police refused to believe him that he'd gotten the gaping gash in his face "at a punk show".

    But, yeah, sweet fucking band. I saw them in Toronto, and everyone from Toronto thought they were too cool to dance.

    I didn't mention Minor Threat because

    1) too obvious, but mostly
    2) Straight-edge was created by a militant 45-second song from a person who eventually thought a little beer and weed here and there isn't a bad thing. So Minor Threat = bunch of stoners, amirite?

    Just kidding... somewhat. Not dissing straightedge though. I was for 8 years.

    It doesn't really matter, dude. If you like their music that's what really counts. I'd listen to a band if they were conservatives. I mean, unless they're Nazis like Skrewdriver or something....

    Some black metal is alright but Burzum is really bad, imo. Even without the Nazism, Burzum wouldn't be a band I like.

    Dag Nasty are a great suggestion to the OP, but I don't know if they're straightedge? They had associations with straight edge acts, one being that a member of them was from Minor Threat.

    Don't go with the tough-guy shit.

    Verse
    Have Heart
    Bane
    Minor Threat
    7 Seconds
    Youth of Today
    H2O

    Fuck Throwdown, Casey Jones, Liferuiner etc. etc.

    But you shouldn't listen to a band just because they're edge. A lot of the times they get too into the sense of sober superiority and become fucking elitist. They really start to act like they're in need of a joint.

    EDIT: And if you base your likes on whether or not a band is sober, you'll probably miss out on bands like Leftover Crack just because of their name. Which would suck because they're great.

    I don't like Leftover Crack (his voice irritates me). But I also listen to alot of bands that aren't straightedge. I just like listening to music that suits my personal ideals. It also helps for when anti-sxe people try to get me to drink or smoke, I politely refuse and they get all pissed at me and keep asking and then I get pissed. I'll give any music a try, SXE or not but sometimes I just feel like listening to some hardcore SXE. Not hardline though.
