- punk... core... something? i don't know. it's a good point. - TFox Oct 15, 11:35 14
  - There are whole sections that are rap. - Mel Profit Oct 15, 11:37 7
    - Hell, there are old Van Halen songs you could say the same about. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 11:38 6
      - The difference is the Rap group Beastie Boys did 'Sabotage' and VH is a rock band. - Mel Profit Oct 15, 11:53 4
        
        I guess that's the crux of my point: does the identity of the group supercede the elements of the song? - TFox Oct 15, 11:57 2
        
        put plainly, I think the identify of the group does supersede the elements of the song. - Mel Profit Oct 15, 12:04
        
        (Take labelmates At The Drive-In, for example. Is "One Armed Scissor" that different from "Sabotage"? Not really.) -- nm - TFox Oct 15, 11:58
        
        Oh, agreed. Just saying. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 11:56

        Sure it does. The Beasties have *lots* of rap songs. But "Sabotage" isn't necessarily one of them. - TFox Oct 15, 11:44 2
        
        Thought so. - Spawn Oct 15, 11:48
