Inaccurate
[edit]I removed the (sold out) from "The band released two full length self-titled albums (in 2003 and 2006) as well as two limited edition (sold out) EPs including Bats!." - It's blatantly easy to buy La Muerte Viva from Amazon.
You got my bloody hopes up that I had a super rare EP on my hands :)

Not Hardcore Punk
[edit]I really don't think this band is best described as Hardcore Punk. I think that they would be better described as Hard Rock or Alt-Rock with some Punk influence. I'm going to change it and if somebody changes it back please explain why. --Macscam (talk) 03:49, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
- Sources for hardcore punk:
- "The Bronx's swaggering interpretation of hardcore punk found them a quick audience in Los Angeles"
- "The Bronx's self-titled debut is a beautifully violent exhibition of pure punk rock."
- "Following up their fiery 2003 debut, the Bronx return with their second self-titled effort. Whereas that album was an unexpected punch to the gut with its hungry hardcore punk delivery, on this set the Los Angeles outfit seems to have softened just a touch."
- "They have the muscle of classic N.Y.C. hardcore bands like Sick of It All, with something of the decadent swagger of the Gun Club."

- Whatever. While I am not going to change the page again, I do just want to suggest the possibility that some part of those sources you listed are wrong. It should be pretty obvious to anybody who extensively listens to hardcore punk that the Bronx are not best described by that label. Macscam (talk) 11:26, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
- I listen to lots of hardcore punk. The Bronx's early EPs and first album are best described as hardcore punk, as is most of their second. That's more than half their current output. --IllaZilla (talk) 17:57, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
- Okay. So their old stuff is hardcore punk. But their current stuff isn't. Therefore they shouldn't be called hard core punk. I thought that this was fairly obvious. macscam (talk) 07:47, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
