Honestly I can't say metalcore is that big here.... more that "hardcore" stuff like "I killed the prom queen" and "parkway drive". Seems common..Not that I really notice that stuff.
When I think Hardcore I think Black Flag, or Minor Threat. Which I like. But it seems that hardcore to most people is metal bands, screamo. Post Hardcore. They are called post hardcore because before harcore (punk) theyre wasnt rweally a lot of shouting or screaming. And that all these bands do now, Like IKTPQ.
well all i can tell you about australia from my experience, you know, living in Darwin my whole life, is avoid Darwin. It's right a the top of the country and unless you like lots of drunks, metal and what you would consider freakish heat stay with the southern states.
nah, man. when you're born in the north you tend to get used to the humidity pretty quickly. What you do notice is the lack of humidity in other parts of Aus and the world
