Deathcore!

[Special Brew]

I have just recently discovered this supposed genre, and I am in love with it. Please discuss things to do with it here, and suggest bands.

Current bands are:
Stick To Your Guns (http://www.myspace.com/styg)
Deadwater Drowning (http://www.hxcmp3.com/bands/1067/index.php)
Despised Icon (http://www.myspace.com/despisedicon)
Animosity (http://www.myspace.com/animositysf)

I want to hear more. So far I have not heard enough to warrant that is an actual genre, and it seems just to be a branch of metalcore. It's just a branch off metalcore it seems, but has very distinct influences that most metalcore lacks. Even if you don't think it is a genre(I don't yet), you should see the particular sound I'm looking for.

[JACK!]

It isn't a genre, but I know the sound you're getting at. Check out All Shall Perish the whole of Hate. Malice. Revenge. is fantastic.

[Special Brew]

Thanks, I checked them out and love them. I added them to the list and edited a little.

[Scabies]

Deathcore? Maybe BMTH if you don't mind scene faggots.

[Berserker!]

Like you.

[Scabies]

You knows it bro.

[Scabies]

I'm seeing BMTH in a few weeks actually, my mate has promised to beat a scenester for me since i don't do all that dancing crap. People here still think i'm 'scene'? :confused:

[Nataroo]

Your buddy sounds like a moron.

[quick_death]

its annoying how everyone hates BMTH because of the scene following they have.they are actully a really decent band in my opinion

[Scabies]

He was joking. I think. He can go hit whoever he wants.

[Nataroo]

They are ok, way too hardcore kids over here like to play Doctor Hardass.

Check out Liu Kang, they have a pretty metallic sound but they totally know whats up, pretty much the only uk band Ive heard that speaks out against the Ganster bull**** going on in UK hardcore, especially round London.

[Zmev]

Interesting, I'd listen now but I'm in computer class so I'll do it when I get home.

[Converge#12]

Listen to "And then there were none" and "Feed Us Fetus"

[quick_death]

i know liu kang.i made a thread about them awhile back. really into them at the moment and the anti-violence thing is really good

[RouteOne]

They are a incredible band.

[south_guitar]

Try Glass Casket. I wouldn't classify them deathcore (I wouldn't classify any band as deathcore), but they sound a lot like the bands that you listed. http://myspace.com/glasscasket They're pretty tight.

fuck yes.

deathcore = death metal + metalcore?

[Excursions]

Wouldn't this supposed "deathcore" genre be similar to grind or am I pulling the wrong strings.

[cbmartinez]

Threadstarter, use the term deathcore again and you're banned.

[whiteminority]

this is the first time i have heard the term since i wondered what cannibal corpse and minor threat would sound like if someone mixed them together. i called that deathcore.

[Scabies]

But Cannibal Corpse are scene now.

[Happymeal]

I thought their death metal parts were awful so I'll stick to real death metal bands instead.

[SactoUnited]

Haha this is one of my terms.


A great deathcore band is Suffokate.

when i thought of that crossover i was in like the seventh grade (10th now) and how are cannibal corpse scene?

all these scene kids have started wearing their t-shirts and supposedly listen to them

exactly.

[Special Brew]

Most of the stuff you guys are suggesting don't seem to have any real hardcore inlfuence. They seem straight up death to me.

[BuddyBigsby]

Dur.

[Special Brew]

I was looking for more deathish metalcore, not actual death. ;)

[south_guitar]

http://myspace.com/firstalliance

I don't care for them, but maybe you'll like these guys. Basically just chugging metalcore with deeper vocals. Listen to Wrong Breed first.

[whiteminority]

damn those bastards.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

So just because a group of people started liking them doesn't mean they all of sudden became a bad band. You should still like the band regardless of who likes them.

I didn't like them too much. Way too repetitive and boring. I like more aggression in my music. I hate the chugging parts, but the fatser parts were decent.

[Dancin' Man]

Deadwater Drowning is nuts. Definitely check them out.

Also, The End, Glass Casket, Ion Dissonance and Misery Index will probably make you happy. All are quite technical bands that are definitely core based, but with elements of death. All very technical and heavy.

he didn't say he didn't like them anymore because of that, douche

[quick_death]

i never said i liked them anyway.i've never really listend to them.couple of songs here and there

Does Deadwater Drowning and The End have a Myspace? I can't find them, nor can I find stuff on Soulseek. I know and love Ion Dissonance and Glasscasket. I haven't looked into Misery Index yet.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Glass Casket is awesome. About the bands you're looking for, search them on purevolume.

I doubt The End does, but they're not that great anyway.

Deadwater Drowning broke up before the rise of Myspace. They have an hxcmp3 page though.

Sorry but LOL. They are Technical Death Metal, how do they have any 'core' in them atall?

Also, All Shall Perish are alright, but the breakdowns are very annoying. Still pretty good for DM that came of America.

What is your Soulseek name?

[SubtleDagger]

Glass Casket
Between The Buried And Me
The Red Chord
Ayat Akrass (Brazilian and a bit low-fi)
Bodies In The Gears Of The Apparatus
The Binary Code


A lot of old Converge seems to walk the deathcore line a bit too.

[Special Brew]

The Red Chord? I already love that band but I didn't think had much hardcore influence. I will check the others, unless I know them already. :p

[BuddyBigsby]

LOL

None of these bands being discussed have 'core' in them in the first place with the possible exception of Suffokate. BTM fit in just dandy with the bands being discussed.

Everyone keeps suggestion straigh up death bands and such. I haven't heard anyone suggest anything even close to the bands I mentioned in the first post. Except SD had a couple from what I've heard so far.

I don't know how to search bands on Myspace. :(

[RCVA]

Go to Music then search.

[Special Brew]

Hah, I'm dumb. I found it, thanks. I don't really use Myspace often. :p

[.Realm.of.Chaos.]

I listened to Despised Icon this weekend. They weren't bad I guess I didn't buy it partially because I only had 20 bucks so I bought Chimaira - Imposibility of Reason

[Special Brew]

Chimaira blow.

Despised Icon rule.

[BuddyBigsby]

Well truly there aren't many bands that actually do mix death metal and hardcore, and there's even fewer good ones. So yeah the majority of suggestions you're going to get is basically death with breakdowns. I would consider BTM death, but I would also consider Despised Icon and All Shall Perish predominantly death, so whatever.

They sound mostly death to me as well. I love this though.

Since there aren't very many bands such as STYG, I guess I will just have to make one. :evil:

[BuddyBigsby]

there aren't very many bands such as STYG

Thank God.

[Special Brew]

I love 'em. To each his own, I guess.

[BuddyBigsby]

I almost saw them on Friday but they got pwned.

[Special Brew]

I almost saw them on Friday but they got pwned.
By who?

All I know about the band is what I've seen/heard on their Myspace. I live three hours away from the closest hardcore scene.

[BuddyBigsby]

Idiots.

They were supposed to play right before Final Fight at this college student lounge show. Well, earlier in the show Final Fight asked STYG if they'd mind switching spots with them since they share members with Fortunate Son, who were set to play right before STYG. This way, things would be a lot easier and equipment wouldn't have to be moved and dismantled just to be put back a set later. That and FF traveled a bit of a distance to play, whereas STYG were from fairly close nearby.

Well, STYG agreed and was cool about it, but right after Final Fight played a fight broke out outside and the dude running it had to call the show off.

[shane italian]

It was those lame staff members. They are the only ones who could have called the cops...that or campus security.

And from what I hear, that kind of thing happens at EVERY show in south county.

[Special Brew]

Well, STYG agreed and was cool about it, but right after Final Fight played a fight broke out outside and the dude running it had to call the show off.
That sucks. :(

But just because a band loses a fight, shouldn't mean their music isn't as good. Do you know any details about the fight though?

[BuddyBigsby]

The last Saddleback show with FF, Fortunate Son, Make Move, and a couple others went off without a hitch.

[shane italian]

Oh, it really didn't have anything to do with the bands. The fight was outside between some dudes whos girlfriends had just gotten into a fight or something. Some guy tried to break it up and ended up having his nose broken. The show was called off, cops came, blah blah.

[shane italian]

[BuddyBigsby]

Oh no, the band wasn't involved in the fight at all. I guess some girl started shit with some other girl, and it escalated to a 3 on 2 fight from there. One of the guys helping with the show tried to stop it and got attacked. He had to go into surgery for 5 hours.

No, I disliked STYG before any of this went down. I do feel bad for them about getting screwed though.

That is pure shit. Anyone that would ruin a show for everyone needs the hell beat of them. Especially one with FF and STYG. :mad:

That is the most pathetic thing I have ever heard.

You're also 16, from Alabama, and go to the trouble of trying to prove yourself to an internet message board by making self-gratifying statements like "don't believe in genres". That's pretty pathetic if you ask me.

I rember seeing a band in Ace Ventura but could never remember which band it was.

[Nataroo]

Isnt this stuff getting labelled white belt now?

[Special Brew]

I have no clue. I just call it deathcore because I like the way the name sounds, and it describes the sound really well. I still think it's just metalcore with a more deathish approach.

[Nataroo]

I can dig it in bursts, its hard to totally get into anything with zilch emotional content.

[south_guitar]

To the post above me: Those guys are amazing! I love them! :D

Cool, glad to know that you liked them. They had their EP up for free download on their site. It might still be up, check it out.

[rialb]

I think the fact that death metal is falsely associated with the genre of punk is an entirely misconceived notion. The essence of a genre does not lay within a bands lyrics or riffs, but with how many false idols are raised in respect to ones so-called god given talent. It is not the common inhabitant of earth to decide the genre such as "deathcore" but it is the role of those that inhabit a higher mortal coil aka thor, king of the norse gods

I've been listening to this band every day for the past couple of weeks.

Death metal is gay whoever is a death head can go kill their momma

i'v had their new album on order for about a fortnight now and it still hasnt come, i cant wait any longer!!!

[Dancin' Man]

I almost wish he wasn't banned.

ANyway, ID's new album, Solace isn't as good as BiI but it's still classy.

[ZEROthirtythree]

I listened to the three Stick To Your Guns songs, and I stopped there.

The band had a good vocal delivery, but the transitions were terrible. The instrumentation was poor as well.

[Dancin' Man]

I like Animosity sometimes and other times just think they're really boring. They are closed to death metal than everything else in here though with only really minimal -core influences. Their drummer is insane and is now the new drummer for Sleep Terror.

Dead to Fall definitely has death metal influence, I'm not sure they sound like the other bands listed though, Glass Casket, Red Chord, despised Icon, BTBAM, they all toe the line between technical death and metalcore

one thing is for certain, they don't resemble any form of punk in the slightest

[BuddyBigsby]

I'm pretty sure Still Remains is a metal band

Whoa there, Professor. Don't overload us with knowledge now.

[SactoUnited]

:lol:

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Whoa there, Professor. Don't overload us with knowledge now.

well i'm just curious why these bands are being talked about in a hardcore/emo forum when there is a metal forum

how could i ever overload you? I mean, you're God, right?

[SactoUnited]

The point is that we're not talking about metal, we're talking about Deathcore. :rolleyes:

[Dancin' Man]

Kittens, this conversation could be had either place but these guys are generally more knowledgable about anything with a core at the end of it.

[Panasonic]

I would definitely say that these bands fit more into metal than into hardcore/emo though.

[SactoUnited]

Yeah, but the point is that they have a larger hardcore fan base.

[Special Brew]

Yeah, but the point is that they have a larger hardcore fan base.
Exactly. Some of the groups have a very distinct hardcore sound, and are basically just metalcore with some death elements, such as STYG. Everyone on these boards seems to hate them though. :(

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

It's interesting, that's for sure. I'm too tired right now to pay much attention to them. I am supposed to wake up for ACTs in three hours. :(

[BuddyBigsby]

I have. Good live band, and I don't care to listen to them on record.

Also, there's several Animositys. I don't think the SF one has ever even been to Florida three times. Sure you're talking about the same one?

I'd say deathcore is more a sub-genre of death metal rather than a sub-genre of metalcore

[whiteminority]

You are all wrong, deathcore is not a fucking genre.
