When I want to discover new music, I just search Linkin Park in last.fm and get a ton of really good hardcore bands.
Last.fm searches on bands related to each other. Last.fm relates them through people's libraries and how much those people like each artist. It's not a match of genres, but a match of artists liked by people who also like the band you search for.
Anyway, as soon as you say you like a specific genre there's always 'know-it-alls' that start a stupid debate on whether or not that band really belongs to that genre. Since I've seen too much of those I just don't give a crap about genres or labels anymore. I like what I like and I don't care what genre it belongs to. If I want music like it I search for similar bands, not similar genres because that gets me nowhere.



[SD]Master_Wong wrote:Linkin Park is associated with the following genres Alternative rock, alternative metal, nu metal, rap rock but more often then not nu metal is their style ofc as with most bands some songs do cross over.
No where in my quick search did it relate them to hardcore metal, hardcore metal needs a hardcore element if any band was to be associated with this would need maybe marilyn manson or crossing over to something more oblivously harder in style slayer
slayer not 100% what genre that is actually but marilyn manson is commonly associated with gothic metal.
finally so you can prove disprove me do a simple google search see what you can find on the first page closest iv come to hardcore metal is hard rock and thats in a yahoo answer thing so not exactly reliable.
But in the spirit of debating il review your arguement that g4tv classes them as hardcore metal

although i did read on the net that they might do a hip hop/metal mixtap with linkin park. just like jayz did but with whole new songs, not remixes
