Music Genre-'Post-hardcore'

The music genre I will be focusing on is Post-hardcore.The genre is mainly popular and mainstream through the United States. It has further developed its original genre; Hardcore punk. Post-hardcore is typically characterised by its clear vocals (including screams) and is supplemented by loud percussion & guitar instrumentation. It has progressed on its dissonant sound, producing harmonious melodies that create great emotion. Popular artists amongst this genre include Poison the well, Thursday, Finch, Thrice & The Used. Hardcore punk ties in with themes such as rebelliousness which influences its offspring genre; Post-hardcore.
We will be able to choose a song that consists of this theme where we can portray the protagonist as someone who is not ordinary and undergoes a dilemma that is universal, & members of the audience can relate to. My partner and I chose this genre because songs from this genre consists of serious, heavy themes that human beings can relate to and the audience can empathise with. Therefore, I believe the song we will choose should also have weighty lyrics to create a melancholic atmosphere amongst our target audience. This will enable us to explore a variety of techniques we may use for our video, in order for it to effectively impact its audience.
