If those two idiots kept branching out and having more conversations labeling the band the same genre as it was discussed earlier and no one disputes it. When it branches out to the point that an entire fan base considers it the same genre that those two original idiots labeled it then it can be considered that genre regardless of if it is right or wrong. It has been used to describe that music for so long that it has become right. This is how the English language works as well Neo. You should know that. Same reason that Oxford keeps adding certain words every year to the dictionary.

Hence Peirce the Veil, Sleeping With Sirens, and Beartooth's being labeled as "post-hardcore".
