Mosh - what does it mean?
Ok moshing isnt all about being cool, it really cant be defined but i will tell you moshing is not i repeat IS NOT about jumping around kicking and throwing your arms around "picking up change" and spinning around... no thats scene core or hard core dancing usually done at a screamo *NOT EMO* (because emo isnt this new tight jeans tight bright colored shirt and side bangs nooo, that is not emo)mcr fob fftl underoath *just to name a few*and no im not hating on the bands* concerts, moshing is being real loving the music and letting all your emotion out. The best and most true mosh pits are done when everyones just raming into each other... cuz to be compleatly honest standing on one foot kicking your other leg and swinging your arms will get you kicked down in a real mosh pit...
I was at a show the other weekend where joey belladonna from anthrax covered a whole anthrax cd, well IT WAS FUCKING AWSOME the mosh pits were hard core when they played mad house!!! but the band who played before them was a serious discrace to the metal scene... it was just a screamo band where the lead singer and most of the other members were either reallly short or really tall and no matter what weighed under 110 pounds all had side bangs and wore tight jeans and tight shirts it was depressing how manny of the scene core followers got up and hard core danced to the music, i got kicked in the back of the fricken head... but trust me when anthrax came on and they tried to get in they were killed... specially when damcyan comes around and they try to "mosh"
Mosh - meaning
Moshing (Mosh pits) can be expressed in many different ways at concerts, gigs, clubs, etc..
The first mosh was pushing each other with the palm of your hands inside a circle of people but now days has transformed into people punching, kicking, and even flipping themselves into others. No matter how violent the mosh may look, people who fall down are normally pulled straight back up by others in the pit. Also gives you an amazing rush.
A: It all went so fast, I only remember hitting a guy in the back of his head in the mosh last night.
Mosh - definition
add to definition:
the word originated in New York in the early 80s. The previous word for the dance was "slam". The origin is probably Yiddish, as is "mish-mosh" - something all mixed up. It was a specific New York Hardcore variation on slamming which went in a circle (usually counter-clockwise with the stage as 12:00). There was a variation to slower, chuggy music called the creepy-crawly. It may have been Jimmy Gestapo (Murphy's Law) himself who coined the word
Crucial Mosh, New York style!
Mosh - slang
Basically, a form of dancing which is popular in concerts usually involving punk or metal music. It is an extremely aggressive dance, which is based mainly on pushing, shoving and punching. Although moshing is a very aggressive activity, it is considered paramount in all mosh pits to look after one another. Most people enjoy moshing because of its ability to relieve anger or tension in a safe and healthy way, as well as its ability to allow oneself to obtain a feeling of comradery, which encompasses all those who add whatever they can to the pit.
"That pit at the Dungeon last night was awesome! We were moshing all night, man!"
Mosh
the pushing and shoving/punching done during heavy metal, rock, and punk music. An amazing way to relive stress and/or anger.
1. Dude, my bitch left me, put on some Killswitch Engage and lets mosh.
2. Dude i broke my nose in the pits yesterday. IT WAS AWSOME!
Mosh
Feel the bodies pulsing all around
Polite violence enticed by sound
A living mass of mindless pain
Shoved out only to push in again
Lost in the moment, forget who you are
Lost in the music, hear only the guitar
Bass line drumming in your ears so loud
See the vibrations more then you hear the sound
Bash and clang of the drums echoes in your mind
Give in to the violent motions you’re sure you can find
Kick, push, punch, scream, and shove
An unbridled expression of hate and love
Move with the crowd that surrounds
Shoved down towards the shaking ground
Groans of joy escape a smiling face
Hauled back up to keep with the pace
Sweat and blood mixed and shared
The gift of being unprepared
A moan escapes from exhausted lips
The crowd freezes and the mood dips
Limping away with a scream for the band
You just moshed, and you can barely stand
1. I moshed at Don't Pet The Bunny's last show and it was fucking amazing!
2. I got knocked down in the middle of the pit and I got the shit kicked out of me. Kick ass!
Mosh
A form of enjoyment at any decent show, however, the best pits are at punk and metal shows, where they actually get some good moshing and don't just jump up and down like idiots at a Fall Out Boy concert. A good mosh pit is an excellent way to let go of all the energy and tension you get at show. In a mosh pit, the participants ram into each other and use their knees, elbows and shoulders to shove and strike. It is considered extremley. important in a mosh pit to pick up anyone that has fallen because the given person could literally die from suffocation or getting trampled. In really good mosh pits, you can be rendered unconcious. People outside of the subcultures that enjoy mosh pits find it scary and unappealing, but they won't ever know the happiness of a good pit.
The mosh pit at the Aus Rotten show was amazing.
