Strange Genres.

I just pulled up the song called "Like A Dolphin" by 14 Iced Bears (via RealPlayer), and in doing so, it listed this band as belonging to two genres: Twee Pop and Cuddlecore.

Cuddlecore?! This last genre name cracked me up! ;) I have never heard of cuddlecore. Has anyone else? What other bands would belong to cuddlecore?

Cheers

I just learned about Grindcore ala Godflesh/Final or Jesu.
I've heard of cuddlecore, and have a band called Cub that is cuddlecore (or so I was told). Hmmm, what does it mean that the two cuddlecore bands we know are 14 Iced Bears and Cub…?

Sound is pretty indie pop – sweet, upbeat, pretty simple (a little surf is in there…). Chick singer, no complicated melodies/harmonies.
yup, cuddlecore was coined by the band (or fans of the band) cub. i have all of their cds if anyone is at all interested in hearing what it sounds likes - sort of like a much happier, girl version of emo. neko case used to drum for them.
talk about moving on to bigger and better things…
