Djent

The word djent is used to describe the guitar tone made when a two-octave power chord is palm-muted. Bulb (a.k.a.

Djent sucks, infected youtube videos about the ibanez rg2228 like a rash. A few bands here and there i dont mind but easier just to sweep all the bands into one pile and put in the garbage

"djent bears no relevance to deathcore, this is the dumbest comparison or two choice words i've ever seen" Two words for you, Sumerian Records.
