Blog # 2

             Hi there, welcome to my blog, my name is Foti Ginakes and today I'm going to be talking about the message in Hardcore music and the message it promotes.

            One of my favourite bands, more specifically, Stick To Your Guns (STYG), is a promoter of animal rights. I think this is a great message that STYG instills into our society. We are often being regarded as the type of society that doesn't give a shit about cruelty, neglect and violence towards animals. Personally, I am a firm believer in the equality of animal and human rights.

          With rad lyrics from Stick To Your Guns such "I'll fight both human and non human rights, I know that things are much brighter on the other side" How could you not support a positive message while still listening to great music!

Anyways, thanks for reading!

Welcome

      Hi there, I'm Foti Ginakes. I'm currently a Creative Communications student at Red River College in Winnipeg, Canada. Welcome, and thank you for reading my blog. For the next 14 weeks I will be blogging at least once a week or more about a certain topic.
   
     More specifically, music, what type of music? Heavy Metal (Metal) and Hardcore of course! These types of music are two types of music that are very dear to me, in the sense that I have been listening to them for most of my life.

    Over the next 14 weeks I will be updating this blog on what Metal and Hardcore music means to me. For example, the differences between Hardcore and Metal, the messages Metal and Hardcore send to their listeners and the general public, how much positivity there is in the lyrics, what the lyrics stand for, and how different Metal and Hardcore is from the music we as society listen to everyday.

    Thanks for reading and I hope to see you again for updated information.
