Subject: What actually is tumblrcore?

Written By: LooseBolt on 03/17/18 at 9:10 am

Is there a definable genre there, with common musical or aesthetic characteristics? Or is it like calling a group emo, where it's basically just reduced to a label? I had never heard this term until today, but apparently this has been a thing since Lorde came out. I dunno, I'm just an old fuddy-duddy trying to make sense of this. Thanks in advance.

I think that's what they call artists that are really popular on Tumblr like Lana Del Ray.

Urbandictionary to the rescue.

Tumblrcore

Tumblrcore is the genre all bands get once they've become popular seemingly over-night on popular blogging website Tumblr. For bands to be eligible to be considered Tumblrcore, they must have a fudge Yeah! blog, and vast amounts of teen bloggers on their jock.

Tumblrcore bands include: A Day To Remember, Bring Me the Horizon, The Wonder Years, Of Mice and Men, Suicide Silence, ect.

Teen Blogger 1: "Hey man, have you read the new post on YourMusicBlogSucks? She totally made a post with album reviews from every tumblrcore band!"

Teen Blogger 2: "Yeah man! I lol'd so hard when I seen the comments from all the butthurt BMTH fans."

Oh, so it's not a sound - it's just a label.
