A phrase coined and popularized by the band thrash metal band Lich King. Something you yell in a mosh pit,(usually at a metal show) when you want to kick a poser's ass, or get other people to help you take down someone being a bully in the pit.
Guy who's being an asshole tries to start a fight with everyone instead of having a good time.
*Person tired of the bully's shit* COMBAT MOSH!!!
Bully gets wrecked.
Hate mosh is the most violent form of hardcore dancing. Started in Jacksonville, Florida; by crews like MTS and OPDS, hate mosh is similar to hardcore dancing, except you don't do it inside of a mosh pit, you do it against the people who aren't dancing.
Hate moshers usually run and jump into a crowd of people watching the show and throw punches and kicks.
"I took my little sister to a show in Jacksonville, and the hate moshers broke her nose."

A combination of slow dancing mixed with a mosh pit, all participants are in pairs dancing haphazardly, most likely drunk and/or high, and one couple will bump into another causing a domino or chaos effect that could lead to spinning girls used as projectiles, tango donkey punches, fist fights, or extreme laughter and fun, depending on the crowd.
Adam: "What is wrong with your ankle?"
Gabrielle: "It must have been injured last night while we were slow moshing, I didn't notice how swollen it was until today because I was laughing so hard and having too much fun to notice last night..."
Mosh Etiquette is what separates most metal from most punk mosh pits. This unwritten rule pamphlet, too few rules for a book, there are only 3 (to me)
1. Don't be an ass. If you go into a pit looking to hurt as many people as bad as you can, someone will probably take a bottle to the back of your head. Weapons are an absolute beating coming your way, depending on the show, the band might kick you the fuck out after your beating.
2. If someone falls down you stop moshing and pick them up, if they are hurt, help them out of the pit. Failure to do so will result in an old breed mosher beating the fuck out of you. Pretty entertaining.
3. If a person is on the edge of the pit, you are not supposed to drag them in, unless you know them and they won't mind. The "guards" as I call them are life long pit encirclers, they contain it to a certain area of the floor. They like the physicality with the minimal chance of getting hurt.
As a last note, don't throw crowd surfers into the pit, we won't catch them.
Lots of punks follow some form of mosh etiquette. Some metalheads too
