I'll agree that when done right this experimentation is actually pretty sweet, but when so-called superbands like Failures subject people to absolute **** I get kind of jaded. Even going back as far as Hot Cross, I hated that band. Now I know they weren't really hardcore, but I think you'll agree that there is a wealth of bands out in that Long Island scene that are almost comically bad.
