The Locust (as we as converge) are very talented bands that write very good songs that are farrr from just being noise.
Someone with a relative view!!!!!*Applauds post
But you will find that noisecore is in fact a recognised genre and The Locust and Converge are part of it.To say they are a Hardcore/Metal band is to group them with the likes of Hatebreed and Im sure you know,there are few likenesses!!Converge are indeed closer too KSE than The Locust but still....a long,long ****in way off!!I saw The Locust about 5months ago and they came ion to an intro of just white noise and feedback that lasted about 5mins!!Converge pride themselves on the fact they pretty much created the Noisecore name.But still...good to see some1 else has a valid point on these bands.We might both be wrong or might both be right......so what,we like some phat ass musick!!
