A Guide to Hardcore Dancing: Just What the Hell are they Doing?

You see them, lurking the streets near Starbucks and the Macintosh Store. You dread their uncontrollable spazmatic dancing in fear of your own life. You start getting scared, stop going to shows of your favorite bands, stop playing your music loud in your car because you are so afraid those tiny fists of fury might come out of nowhere and bang on your hood or window.

But how can you stay protected? How can you spot a hardcore dancer from normal folk? With this simple guide, you identify a hardcore dancer within miles and save yourself from the danger and embarrassment of being seen next to them.

First, let’s identify a hardcore dancer:

1. They can range from all sizes, short to tall but are ALWAYS anorexic-skinny. You will never see a fat hardcore dancer which is silly because fat people get winded walking much less dancing.

2. They tend to wear bandannas around wrists or hanging out of pockets like your local gang members do–mainly used to wipe the sweat from thier hardcore-brow.

3. Their pants are so tight; you wonder were they stashed their balls

4. The males walk like penguins because their pants are so tight.

5. Males are generally unrecognizable from females.

6. The REALLY hardcore dancers (the ones that are SO hardcore, they don’t even need mom to drop them off, they have older friends who drive) have big black X’s on their hands, proclaiming their straight-edge-ness which means they:

Don’t smoke

Don’t drink

Don’t have random sex

Have more pent up anger and sexual frustration of ALL the hardcore dancers!

Beware the Straight-Edge HC Dancers. Not only are they extremely annoying, once they wind up those fists it’s like a hurricane over Louisiana! Now that we have identified the Hardcore Dancer, let’s identify and take action against the chaotic eruptions of seizures the dancer emits.

1. The move we shall call, What the fuck are they punching at? Consists of:

Take that Dad! I hate you for never coming to my T-Ball games

b. Onlookers generally confuse this move with someone having an Autistic fit instead of “dancing”. However, confusing the two may be the last mistake you ever make. Be sure you can identify this move before progressing onto the next.

2. This move is a combination of the punch-move called, Get out of the way before I bitch-kick your ass. Here are the ways to identify it:

I’m going to kick my stupid girlfriends head in for breaking up with me

3) Mostly, hardcore dancers punch, kick, or combine the two. Sometimes they get creative and swing their heads around but for the most part, they just look like they have a bad case of cerebral palsy.

Now you have the knowledge to identify and properly assess their moves, please refer to Scene Kid Take-Down: Feel Intimidated No Longer!

While they are both different in their own respects, the Scene Kid and the Hardcore Dancer are both little bitches who cannot survive with the handy tips offered in that guide.

LOL, that one was good!!! Put a lot of time into it huh? missed one thing i do my fair share of hardcore dancing at shows, and i dont meet the profile! Whats the deal!!!

I agree with ‘J’.

And isnt it conidered skanking?

um your the pansy man your just to scared to go out there and hardcore dance so you sit on your lame ass and type about how you wish all hardcore dancers would get a life….well now look whos talking

your a bitch ass nigger who has no fucking idea what he/she is talking about first off the only ones that look like girls are the damn emo faggots so yes get a fucking life you cock smoker

i can’t say ive ever seen an aneroxic emo-tard next to me in the pit where i roll the fashion kids always get fucked up so come up to the new scene get your fucking ass kicked then type about how the guys who throwdown truly fuck it up!
And watch how you identify us pull that shit around me and ill fucking make sure the brass come out! to all the h/c kids and adults see you at the shows…..and bring your fight.

I admit that this was funny but only because it is so steryotypical.

For one thing, it’s down’s syndrome not cerebal paulsy.
and wouldn’t you rather us get our anger out in a healthy way such as dancing as apposed to getting drunk and driving or shooting your mom?

please take a history class before you diss what i live for.
i dance and i bet you can’t so don’t make up all this random shit thinking that it’s hilarious.

Atleast learn the real names of these moves instead of making them up.
ksuper

oh and p.s.

don’t even get me started on straight edge.
at least we believe in something.

i have never seen a worse case of niggerdom in my entire life.

i weigh 250lbs and i bet you a million dollars i could do a mexican hat dance on your dead mother’s mascara.

pull the cock out of your ass and have a big bowl of shut the fuck up.

First off I’m 28 have been going to shows longer then most kids. This style of dancing has been around forever. Just cause you don’tlike it doesn’t mean anything.Stand in the back or whatever, don’t go to shows I know I won’t miss you. I was here before you and I’ll be here after you.

Wow, uhm.. I actually thought that was funny. HAve you ever been in those pits?? yeah, thought soo.. So uhmm.. Yeah. The only guys that look like chicks are the emo peoples.. Not every h/c dancer. OK?? Get that right.

Geena.

fuke hardcore dancing it is gay as fuck what the hell are you punching and please tell me the point of doing this becuase all i see is you kicking the shit out of nothing i will kick all your fucking asss

yo bitch stfu
let us do w/e we want to do
it pisses me off that you got to judge us
let us do w/e we want to do and leave us alone
fuck you

so did any of you notice this website is ONLINE SATIRE? Do any of you know what satire means? i didn’t think so.

satire means use of wit. i have to admit that was funny but it was harsh and i completly understand why alot of you are pissed off. oh and Kristaa skanking is part of the ska scene

your a fuckwit. you are probably the anorexic emo fag that cries if you get nudged, get a life, get off the computer and go to a simple plan/dashboard show where you belong and cry with your peers

your pothetic!

Black sheep walking with the wolves! hi 5s and stage dives will always conquer your worthless weekends of pointless sitting around most likely gettin drunk wasting your life away.
OUT OF STEP WITH THE WORLD we let our anger out! this isnt for you.

your a peice of shit. go jump off a cliff. your really tough hiding behind your computer screen.

you are an actual joke.
im fat
dont wear tight pants
dont own a bandana
not anorexic
i actually just think how lame you are having that much time on your hands.
whats wrong? didnt your mommy and daddy show you enough attention when you were a child.
i say you best un fuck yourself.

PULL YOUR FUCKEN HEAD IN.

were you picked on as a child, maybe you just hate skinny people because your a pudding too far, maybe you hate straight edge people because they can atleast be proud of who they are.
maybe you hate hardcore dancing because you actually cant and are probly in a wheelchair.
i think its probly the best for all parties cosidered that you just go hang your sorry ass.

im pathetic*

i’ve seen fat people hardcore dance. u dont know what u talking about! Hardcore dancing is our form of dancing! punching, kicking, jumping. thats just the way it is. i mean, why do people bounce their ass so much when they dance hip hop or whatever??

listen man, hardcore dancing rules, and so does 2 stepping and skanking, and if someone reads this, please e mail me and tell me what straight edge means, cuz it sounds like something emo, and emo is gay, and the guys that made this website can fucking die

dude you a fuckin nerd. u actually spent time making this bullshit website. hardcore dancing is what makes a show enjoyable. your just too much of a pussy to get out there…

yeah this whole page is kind of funny. hardcore dancers are people who really just fucking feel the music and want to do theire own thing for it. almsot everybody likes to mauge unless ur into britnie spears or some shit because its just fun. hardcore dancing is like that. it looks cool as hell, you get out some aggresion, and you beat the crap out of poser ass people who try and diss you for doing it.

ok i’m gonna het throught this with as little of anger as possible.

1. you are extremely sterio typical
2. I’m 12 and i weigh around 160 i’m 5′9 and i still throwdown every chance i get so get off your fat people are lazy throne
3. your identifying of hardcore people is off by alot but true to a small extent. My best friend weres tight jeans and i wear semi tight jeans it makes it easier to do higher kicks
4. spink kick, windmill kick, windmill arms, head banging not some punch your dad
5. i have never talked to a hxc person that hates their dad
6. since when doe sbeing dropped off at a show have to do with straight edge?
7. There is an extemely high level of true hxc people at shows. we take turns and do it for fun and occasionaly to blow off steam we aren’t some stupid mob that hits stuff
8. your an idiot
9. you’ve prolly only seen/ talked to imature posers
10. talk to real HxC people then write something real not this stereo type stuff.

p.s. come to a show with me some time and i will show you what real hxc is

btw skanking is ska not hxc although they are somewhat related. Skanking isn’t as violent

i just think the music is great but the dancers just look like there havinga seizure played a little bit too many video games, maby they ahve but i guess its there responsibilty

This is hillarious. I was at a hardcore show yesterday and couldn’t stop laughing. Love the music, but what the hell is up with the dancing? I participated a bit. It’s fun. However, the hardcore kids are so unpleasent it’s a small wonder some one doesn’t just beat them in the face for a few hours. Hardcore dancing=silly.

Dude, Fat People Hardcore Dance Too.

I Would Know…and seriously the people that wear thight pants in the pit are pussies, Hardcore Music isnt supposed to be about what clothes you wear or what crew your with, its about the music. Fuck scene faggots

i dont know what was more funny, the article or the comments afterwords hahaha good stuff…

hardcore is sexy

I love lamp!!

I`m telling you this negro is wicked dumb. You punk ass wanna-B “hip-hopper” this comment is from holland and if I meet you I will slice off your testicles and feed them to you bitch
my regards white power

mongooltje:D

lol, yes hardcore dancing may look goofy, I’d have to agree, but so does push moshing. In a sense, any dancing can look dumb as all hell, but it’s all in good fun, and I’d have to say hardcore dancing is much more fun then any dancing I’ve ever done. Good stereotypes And fuck you for even talking about straight edge, you don’t know shit…..

take a history class cock smoke..your so called moshing you kids do now a days come from what is now called hardcore dancing..this is were things originated..come on out to a show we will show you how to dance

I will eat all the scenekids and gain an extra 50 lbs

PSHHH.

“i can’t say ive ever seen an aneroxic emo-tard next to me in the pit where i roll the fashion kids always get fucked up so come up to the new scene get your fucking ass kicked then type about how the guys who throwdown truly fuck it up!”

word.
haha.

Dude man, hardcore dancing is no different than any other form of dancing there is, yeah it make look different and weird but hey man, its fun so who the fuck cares! if we wanna look like “idiots” let us look like idiots its fun who cares. We dont go around dissing ppl for swing dancing

And about the straight edge part, ppl who truly believe in straight edge, like me, believe in not doign drugs, smoking or drinking cuz were doing it for the better of ourselves. we ‘ve got better things to do than go around and getting drunk and shit.

I understadn this was a joke, it was pretty funny, but there were a few things i think you could have left out.

i think your all babys who care if a guy speeks his mind yes i have done my share of hardcore dancing but who fucking cares hes just mad he cant do it. so all of you shut the fuck up and kick someones face

oh and by the way straigh edge is fucking gay as hell im sry i hope i didnt affend anyone but it is!

y r a fucking dumass fuck u have no fucking idia what u r talking about kid real hardcore kids dont have tight pants for one and they dont ware bandanas to. they have shorts and band shorts or just what ever they want.and not all of them r slinny so dont fucking say that the real hardcore kid r fucking big as fuck like the kids that go to see hatebreed and shit like that they r big and they dance so what

I lOVE TOM

HAHA I LAUGH AT ALL U PPL WHO GET MAD AT THIS GUY. U GUYS ARE FUCKIN FAGGOTS FOR GETTIN MAD AT SOMETHIN AS FUNNY AS THIS

DUDE WE SHOULD PUT SOME KETCHUP ON ALL THE HARDCORE DANCERS

HARDCORE FOR LIFE!

KANYE WEST!

Well done mate, well done. Whatever happened to the traditional mosh? Oh, and you missed out a move I like to call “I feel like chicken tonight, on a crab”. Your HC dancer will move sideways (like a crab) whilst flailing their arms either side of them, except their elbows will be locked at a tight angle and its like theyre trying to elbow gnomes attacking them from the left and right of them…

Anyway, top job. This hardcore dancing thing needs to be ended sooner rather than later.

ok
i thought it was fucking hilarious
don’t get all pissy just because he wrote something funny that is normally true
i am a hardcore dancer though
i wear girl pants down on my ass
i wear bandannas sometimes
and i throw down like a mother fucker
i agree there’s no more fun than hc dancing but come on guys
learn how to laugh

What’s wrong with getting drunk?

What’s wrong with taking drugs?

I really don’t see the problem is neither of these affect anyone else but yourself.

Also, what’s the need for the use of the word ‘nigger’ all the time? Too XcoreX to use proper vocabulary?

Some of you ‘hardcore kids’ who have replied complaining about the stereotypying have ordered people who are ‘emo fags’ to go and “listen to dashboard confessional/simple plan and cry in your room”. Irony, anyone?

PEACE!

bearing in mind the whole hardcore scene is a less violent way of moshing, you guys seem preety angry from the comments youre all leaving and if ido say so myself you all sound funny as mother fuckers! HAHA! The website is well funny. MESSAGE TO ALL!!! dont take shit so seriously, laugh it off, your not here to complain about shit, enjoy your fucking selves, n whats with all the nigger shit, I bet half of you who said nigger comments arent even black so I hope you all get yourselves beaten for disrespecting other races. sweet dreams x

First of all….straight edge isn’t emo…it’s a way of life…no drinking, drugs smoking or caffine. it’s a commitment you make to better yourself and make a statement…if you were to tell a straight edge kid what you said here you would get your ass rocked so i wouldn’t go opening your maouth before you think…and secondly, hardcore dancing and two stepping go together…what do you think the breakdowns are for in a hardcore song??? so both of you need to sit back and think about shit before you say it.

I find it kinda funny that your talking shit about us hardcore dancers. The only thing that you dont realize is that most of us are nice and just do it to have fun. But you wouldnt understand us cause your a fucking tard and like to fucking label people. Well i hope you have fun getting off on labeling people you fucking tool. kthanx

that shit is freakin hilarious.this weekend im going to a hard core fest and i will have to deal with those types of deuche bags that think they are bad ass’s.

if you have to look on the internet to lear to dance well then your pathetic. its easy when you get mad stomp,punch,go crazy. but you have to feel it in the music or it wont feel right.

i think this is the funniest thing i’ve read in a while. I like how the tough kids claim they will “pull their brass out” hahah. You guys are very pathetic. It’s because of you kids that shows get ruined and venues no longer let a lot of local bands rent them out. To each their own, but i thought “hardcore” was about having your own identity, and standing up for what you believe in. You are all sheep, and your crews can get fucked. Courage Crew, get fucked, Boston Beatdown crew, get fucked. Grow up and enjoy the music. The show isn’t about the dancers, it’s about the musicians. So once again, grow the fuck up. I’ll take emails at dainedies@yahoo.com

You guys do look like fucktards when you spaz out though.

luv ya kay? lol, brb, hahaha, fags

This was awesome. I’m just so fucking sick of hardcore kids dominating the scene. I’m sick of you assholes trying to fuckin’ fight you way through life. And I’m sick of you ruining our fucking shows! Get some fucking counseling, you stupid emo bitches!

Oh, and go ahead and email me if you shitheads are pissed about what I said. hellachillbro@yahoo.com

ROFL!!

Its funny how so many people over react over you expressing yr views!

I know what yr saying, it does look ridiculous but its wayyy fun to do :]

NOT in public for me i have to say :]!

xxxo.

Dude this is NOT!!!!!! Hardcore! You were just talking about EMO kids! That suck dick! You donn’t even know what hardcore is!!!

dude people have their own fuckin opinions and if u like hardcore dancing then who gives a shit and if u dont, then u dont need to be talkin hella shit y dont u go suck a dick and fuckin dont say ur opinion i think hrdcore dancing shows that ur tough and i think its hella fun so fuck off

I sort of agree with this… but dancing at shows is a lifestyle, just like blogging about how gay they are is a lifestyle so before you make fun of hardcore dancers you might check out the mirror…

that was the stupidest thing I have EVER read, actually try and find out what hardcore dancing is about, and what hardcore is about, you said

3. Their pants are so tight; you wonder were they stashed their balls

4. The males walk like penguins because their pants are so tight

girl pants are for scene fucks like you, now that Ive read this, im fucking dumber, thanks alot douche

this is really funny dont listen to those ther cocks ill “ill fuck yo ass up ” they need to get a life like its only a bit of fun bunch of faggs they do look like they have somut rong with them bunch of bell ends !

ummm….I LOVE TO THROW DOWN…whoever typed all this up on this site about straight edge and hxc kids can lick my but cuz if i catch u at a show with me ill kick u in the head and 2 step on ur face so stop doggin on us daine. this whole web site is bs….

hahaha holy fuck.this is funny as hell.
you proved a GREAT point.

Haha it’s funny in a stereotypical way. I dance alot and I am pretty skinny and I do wear chick pants, and i do wear banadannas alot. however, you can tell im a dude. I am straightedge too, but I dont write it everywhere cause it’s kinda sketchy. oh yea, and you left out 2 stepping in your dance move thing.

This was funny at points, but you don’t know much besides stereotypes. Everyone on this “scene” has heard them all before, so its getting pretty old.

Don’t knock straight-edge, what’s the point? Emo kids didn’t start straight-edge anyways, that was started in the 80’s by Minor Threat, a punk rock/hardcore band. I am straight-edge, which will probably result in you mocking me.

haha, I wear tight pants. I don’t know why, I enjoy the pressure. Don’t hate.

The shows are about the music anyways. Hardcore dancing gets lame, its a bit funny though. Not to mention its good excersize, haha.

\”i am a hardcore dancer though
i wear girl pants down on my ass
i wear bandannas sometimes\”

LAWLZ

Most of you morons wouldnt know hardcore if it smacked you in the damn head….pathetic. With that being said, the writer of this can get fucked

-Carl

I dunno about you guys but I\’m a balls to the wall hXc dancer. None of you d00ds are d0wn with the core!

yes yes yes this is the coolest shit ever i love your site. all the fucking loser dancing kids at this local band “bear garden” shows suck my ass. u need to publish a book. i would soooo buy it thanks for the gnarly site later.
-Jake

Maybe the author of this BULLSHIT gets beaten up for disrespecting the hardcore scene. This sort of dancing is a part of. And i cant imagine that a venue doesnt book hardcore bands again if the attendance goes wild in a mosh pit sharing some violence with one another. that is crap. and to me, hardly thinkable. people who dont want to mosh get hurt: yes this happens if they dont watch out. THEY KNOW where the danger is so they can get away from it if necessary. And whats the point of the statement slam dancers look like girls??? U stupid gayfuck! I never saw someone in a moshpit who looked like a girl in anyway!!!! maybe this depends on which shows you go, if you go to an emo gig well its kinda like: An all-girl attendance…so what the fuck??? And the mosh pit crews are a part of the shows, fact! Anyone who believes different is wrong. This article and some comments on it are just to stupid to me. Guys, go get a life, and keep your nose out of things you dont understand. Seriously, for the sake of this community and millions world wide…Reading the SHIT BETWEEN THE LINES to me was just a waste of time. Dude you owe me 15 minutes of my life, and i wont get this time back…sadly…

Excuse may bad english and my foul language, this article is too much bullshit…

ARRRRGHHHHHHHHHH G UNIT FOR LIFE

It’s true. This is correct.

i couldnt said it better myself Daine excellent post, my band played a lot of shows with “hXc” bands and up until the underground got closed down where i live i had the utmost respect for hardcore bands. Hardcore dancing i agree is just to have fun but i mean when you have those retarded “Crowd killing” moves where harmful intent is used against the audience that shit has to stop. Your lyrics are about “positivity” and you pull that shit off, thats hypocritical,not to mention the moves you pull off (spinkicks, windmills) and all of that other shit is really wearing thin.

woww, this was pretty funny. what i thought was funnier were the comments. seriously you guys need to chill out, its people like you, with tough guy attitudes who make dancing lame with all your bro moshing and shit. I was told hardcore was a place to have fun, not violence, so all you tough guy bro’s out there suck it!

There’s nothing cool at all about being in a gang or from the hood. All you kids who think being hood makes you tough or respected.. you’re full of shit. Be thankful for everything you have.”When you use violence.. it never fucking ends!” -Richard of MTP

I agree completely with this whole blog, it’s seriously fucking annoying when you have some hardcore wanker flailing his limbs around like some carnival ride, in the middle of a bleeding through gig, when the rest of us just wamt to headbang, hardcore fuckers dont even apologise when they break your nose (personal experience with these cunts), at least metalheads will help you up, apologise or get you out of the pit in one way or another once theyve bl;itzed you. Unintentionally i might add.

Point and case? hardcore fuckers should either enjoy the music without resorting to needless violence, or leave metal gigs alone.

your ugly and your statements and lack of knowledge are proved to be unworthy.
pretty much you don’t deserve life.

I am a harder-than-hard hardcore to the core, yo. I’m harder than diamonds and tough as nails.

I swing my arms like Popeye on crystal meth. And I kung-fu kick into outer space like Beavis and Butthead smackin’ butts. I am the original Karate Kid, beeyotches!!!! I can “paint the fence” and “sand the deck” and still find time to “wax off”. Look out Zapka, I’m commin’ at ya!!!!

Don’t label me, you ignorant asses!!! Just ’cause I dance like a epileptic monkey and make faces like Elvis straining at stool don’t give you the right to make fun of me.

I hate you all. I’m high on life and pissed off at pops. I’ll beat the crap out of anyone skinnier than me and pour Diet Coke all over them.

Emo rules. My mosh can beat up your mosh, you jerks!!!!!

I’m mo hardcore than all of ya!!!!!

Supa

im going to a hxc show tonight and im going to pick me up some pennys

Jow guys,
i guess it’s pretty foolish what he’s talking abouth
I don’t know or i’m speaking correclty because i live in Belgium and saw by coincidence this “page” @ google.
yesterday (10-6-06) I went looking at hatebreed, Born From Pain, the Black Dahlia Murder and Angel Crew. You know Angel crew? Best band ever.
Anyway, I like the ‘moshing’ and couldn’t live without.
When I arrive, i only have to see/heer the band soundcheckig and the adrenaline gets trough my body.
But, no mather what, there is allways such thing like respect’ in the pit.
You won’t get ripped of there, of ignored, or whatever
Can’t say that from other places.
And i’m just a normal guy (at least i think) but that’s just my choice (our choice…) and nobody can’t take that away from me.
And you there, get a life

ciao

its easier to do high kicks in loose unrestraining pants. not tight as hell jeans.

and theres more to just punching and kicking. i was looking for a laugh, but its too simple a description of the moves and shit.

oh my. that was good.
thanks for the laugh.

“bearing in mind the whole hardcore scene is a less violent way of moshing”

Y’wot, fucko? Less violent? Are we talking about the same hardcore here?

And fat cunts are awesome on the dancefloor.

this is fucking bullshit….this website has to be made by ppl who CANT dance like I can and they just got laughed at when they tried….its not our foult we found a fun way to dance that DOESNT envolve violence…..and if i knew whho made this site and you were at a show i would spin kick ur happy little emo ass right out of the show ur just a whinny little bitch…….

ohh yea im striet edge too so WATCH out

lol get a sense of humor people,:)

Randy Sizemore

I really do like this place.

this was funny because it was such an uneducated stab at something that is done for a reason. a resaon that someone like you would never understand. i don’t fit your shoddy description. nor do i take offense to what you’ve attempted to do. which is make a mockery of hardcore dancing. i dance at shows because it feels good, and ACTUALLY a lot of bands encourage it. it’s a good way to support the band you are going to see. i could never understand going to a hardcore show and sitting there just nodding my head. it’s not for me. and also you should check into what being straight edge is, it’s healthy. clean good living. anger has nothing to do with being straight edge. straight edge people will end up living longer than people who do drugs and live unhealthy lifestyles. so when you die, i’ll do the “Get out of the way before I bitch-kick your ass” on your grave and then go to your house and do the “What the fuck are they punching at?” while your mom blows me. and your dad watches. you love it.

I’m glad you can stereotype and categorize all the different people that go to these shows in such few words. This obviously is a joke. And to be honest this wasn’t even entertaining if it was meant to be a mockery. It was rather dull, bland and boring not to mention quite unoriginal and played out. I’d give it an A for effort if it was even worth me reading the whole thing, but instead it gets an F as is nothing short of a failed attempt at whatever its purpose happens to be.
In a related topic, all forms of “dancing” are rather comical if you think about them. Hip hop dancing anyone? You have the “let me hit it from the back girl” and the “grind that poonani on my leg ho” and my all time favorite the “turn around and stick it out”, plus the “shake that laffy taffy girl”… The list goes on.
Dancing by definition is nothing more than letting oneself go in an attempt to have a good time. You get lost in the music and enjoy yourself. If you don’t enjoy being around people who do just that, it’s easy to avoid. Just don’t go to the show/club/concert whatever it happens to be. It’s that simple. Thank you very much, Hitler of All Dance.
P.S. This whole site sucks more dick than the gay parade.

whoo ever wrote this is a dusssttterrrr

ONE.
labelling yourself as ‘hardcore’ is the most sad, and fucking pathetic thing i’ve ever seen in my life. you know who the posers are? you. be yourself, you immature little fucking shitfaces.

TWO.
once, while watching some kids hardcore dance at a show, one kid hit the other and started screaming at him, because he “got in his way”. at a show, you find a crowd. don’t expect people to part the fucking sea just so you can show off your stupid moves.

THREE.
i don’t care if you hadcore dance. good for you. just don’t get mad at us outsiders when we think you look hilarious. i laugh at hip-hop dancers too. some of them look so fucking retarded when they dance, but so do some of you. it’s dancing, it’s not “bringing your fight”. that is just so gay. some people go to shows to enjoy the music, not to show off how fucking awesome they are by fucking up that air.

so, keep throwing down, but don’t get mad at those who think you look stupid.

i do agree that this is stereotypical though. i’ve seen some pretty huge hardcore dancers. not everyone is 50 pounds with girl pants on. even i know that.

wow this is the most fucking gay ass thing iv ever read please go to a show or something and actually take down some notes (since your prob a fucking nerd doing a research paper)
thank you

This shit sucks hardcore dancing is lame. Yes I will admit this. But most of the kids that actually dance at shows don’t fit that discription. Kids who dance and think theyre XTUFFX for doing it are the ones angry about this. I think its funny how you kids forgot what hardcore is about. Its not about making fun of kids who spin kick or tew step. Its not even about dancing. Its about supporting bands, youre friends, and living for hardcore. Its about making a difference in the world we live in. Dancing and all of that is cool I guess. But its not important. Get this wack idea out of your heads.

haha this crap is funny maybe not so accurate but still funny im a Hardcore dancer and i thought that u might like to know that this leg movement isnt seizures or skanking its called the two-step and u forgot some other moves (spinkicks, pickin up pennies, etc…)but i dont see why people are getting all angry up there its a joke guys geez hes not really screwin with u

haha I am 220 pounds and started a 100 person mosh crew lol I mosh till I drop so yes fat people do mosh .. and I look better then most the idiots 2

hahaha this thing is brutal i liked it

edge is nothing but a cult and label why do that to yourself be clean for other reasons.

This is hella much brokeback.
I’m laughing my ass off.
Most HxC shows are pussy status.
I Rarely, Rarely ever see you kids get rough.

Some guy called you a nigger….? I don’t get it funny blog though

This page is great. I play guitar and tour in a whatever-core band. All you silly kids should know that we musicians laugh at you and make fun of you. Stop taking yourselves so XseriouslyX…

hey now…..i like to hardcore dance and i kno ppl who do…and lots of them arent anorexic skinny…..besides it fun!! i sukk at it but still…..ill give u credit for the effort into it…but i am a lil insulted here….

I was recently at a show to see Darkest Hour, and before them played a good band called Bury Your Dead. The hardcore dancers were so fucking funny I almost pissed myself. The singer said mosh, and no one moved or did anything. Then he said “lets see some movement” all the “hardcore” kids pile in and start flailing like fish out of water.

wow the guy who wrote this is a fucking idiot, u must only go to metalcore shows and not real hardcore shows, cuz there is no fuck fashion core kids in the pit at shows i go to, and another thing fuck everyone in here im straightedge till death so fuck you if u dont like it go smoke a dick you fucking faggots, we “dance” cuz we fuckin like it, its a way to let out aggresion w/ the fuckin world.

I think ur descriptions and everything were way off. but i have to agree that hardcore dancing is kinda lame. im not saying that cuz of the way it looks but i dont like violence and the 2-steppers and hxc kids always seem to be getting into fights which makes no sense cuz everyone goes to a show to have fun. i understand swinging the arms and shit but the problem with that is so many people are careless and dont care if they hit anyone which is fucked up cuz ive seen people hospitalized for careless shit like that. i could care less what ur form of dancing is but u guys need to look out for eachother theres no reason to always start fights.

i am not anorexic. i do wear girls jeans. i do wear tight shirts. i do dance at shows. i do own a bandana[[used to wipe the sweat && blood off my hardcore freakin brow]]i am straightedge. i dont need drugs or acohol interfering with my dancing at shows or at all in my life for that matter.i live my life to the fullest. not to get messed up. like kate said: at least we believe in something. and not only that but we stand for what we believe in. it hard today to not do what everyone else is doing but guess what. we do just that. we are going against what others think of as cool. straightedge kids. i love you. keep it up.

Fuck hardcore dancing! You don’t do that during a metal show because a regular mosh pit isn’t as violent. Hell, if you want to have a good time with each other, might I recommend the Wall of Death?

OH my Gosh i cried ahahaha i was alughing so hard

dont knock the emo kids, i bet some little skinny emo kid in girl pants and his lip pierced could spin kick you into next week. smoke weed motherfucker.

Everyone calm the fuck down. This is about the fucking music, and everyone I think is forgetting that. Who cares if you hardcore dance, push mosh, skank or just fucking snort drugs like a moron and sit in the corner. If your there for the music thats whats it’s all about. Im not bashing anyone, I think shows are a good output for everyone and everyone needs to get more positive and stop trying to fight everyone elce.

Punch floors not people
