It is an extremely aggressive dance, which is based mainly on pushing, shoving and punching. It may have been Jimmy Gestapo (Murphy's Law) himself who coined the wordīasically, a form of dancing which is popular in concerts usually involving punk or metal music. There was a variation to slower, chuggy music called the creepy-crawly. It was a specific New York Hardcore variation on slamming which went in a circle (usually counter-clockwise with the stage as 12:00). The origin is probably Yiddish, as is "mish-mosh" - something all mixed up. The previous word for the dance was "slam". The word originated in New York in the early 80s. The mosh pit at the Aus Rotten show was amazing. 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. In really good mosh pits, you can be rendered unconcious. 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 a mosh pit, the participants ram into each other and use their knees, elbows and shoulders to shove and strike. A good mosh pit is an excellent way to let go of all the energy and tension you get at show. IT WAS AWSOME! 4.Ī 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. Dude i broke my nose in the pits yesterday. Dude, my bitch left me, put on some Killswitch Engage and lets mosh.Ģ. An amazing way to relive stress and/or anger.ġ. The pushing and shoving/punching done during heavy metal, rock, and punk music. I got knocked down in the middle of the pit and I got the shit kicked out of me. I moshed at Don't Pet The Bunny's last show and it was fucking amazing!Ģ. You just moshed, and you can barely standġ. Give in to the violent motions you’re sure you can find See the vibrations more then you hear the soundīash and clang of the drums echoes in your mind Almost always done in a "pit" with extremely cool people who you don't even know but they'll look out for you! You get pushed around, shoved, you fall on your ass but it's all in the spirit and you have a f*ckin great time!!!Ī concert isn't a concert without getting in a pit!!! 2. To mosh: A way of expressing yourself at an mental rock/punk concert.
