What do you think of "hardcore" music?

I’m talking screamo, metal, etc. (i.e. A Static Lullaby, Underoath, System of a Down, August Burns Red, As I Lay Dying, Norma Jean, Every Time I Die) Do you listen to it? Have you tried listening and it disgusts you? Are there some bands you can listen to and some you can’t?

Secondary question: Is it possible that the Christian hardcore scene (Underoath, Emery, Haste the Day, etc.) has more talent than the secular?
