Self righteous, ray ban wearing, hair slicking, elitists in a music scene, who see themselves as superior to everyone around them. Generally, they don't play in bands, or if they did it was several years ago and they are resting on the laurels of their mediocre success. See everyone around them as inferior and fake, despite the likelihood that the people they are targeting are more genuine than the Post-Hardcore Kid. The kind of pompous shit heads that taint music scenes.
Post-Hardcore Kid:
You don't like (insert band here) you're a fucking poser
Kid:
Uh ok

a person who won't admit they're emo so covers it up with an even more vague genre of self-pity music for those in a suburban 1st world culture with nothing to complain about, yet still feel bad for themselves. post hardcore indie music is actually emo.
18 year old male, tight jeans(cock visible), chuck taylors, interested in bands such as: as i lay dying, cradle of filth, underoath, velvet acid christ, dimmu borgir. post hardcore indie is all of the above.

A genre of punk rock that focuses on expanding beyond the musical boundaries of hardcore punk. Post-hardcore usually has more melodic and complex arrangements than hardcore. In other words, post-hardcore is to hardcore what post-punk is to punk.
It was pioneered in the eighties by bands like Minutemen, Naked Raygun, and the Effigies. It gained mainstream popularity along with its emo subgenre in the late '90s and early '00s, with bands like Rise Against, My Chemical Romance, and At The Drive-In.
A foundational post-hardcore record is My War by Black Flag
"Is that a The Used shirt?"
"Yeah"
"Fuck yeah, I love post-hardcore."
"Me too!"
A genre combining the artsy sensibilities of post-punk with the general energy of hardcore punk. Vocals can vary wildly, from cleans to screams to even death growls (do keep in mind that death growls aren't really part of the original scene). Later on, many post-hardcore bands would add influences from pop punk, metalcore or even melodic death metal.
Several genres would evolve from post-hardcore over time, such as emo and it's derivatives such as screamo and emo-pop, or mathcore, which is a combination of math rock and post-hardcore. Many melodic metalcore bands also have post-hardcore sensibilities.
