Metalcore

[Hbp]

If you are looking to get into metalcore:

Converge
Botch
Poison The Well

Is where to start, and for the most part, all you need

7 Angels 7 Plagues
Buried Inside
Kiss It Goodbye
Architects
Are also worthy of a few listens

[Cocaine]

I never hated metalcore.

[Hbp]

Yayy Coke. I like you more already. Favorite metalcore bands?

[Eliminator]

i love metalcore. as i lay dying are my favorite

[CityOfEvil]

I never hated it too.

I really like Killswitch Engage and As I lay dying.

[Hbp]

Personally my favorite Metalcore bands are Converge, Poison The Well, and Botch

[Cocaine]

A lot of my favourite metalcore bands usually add something new to it. Hm.

Cursed (metal and hardcore, so mathematically they're metalcore but they dont sound too much like others of the genre)
Curl Up and Die (lots of grind, sort of like Converge musically though)
Converge
Between the Buried and Me (okay, this is really, really questionable. Not much metalcore in their sound at this point but wtf ever).
Poison the Well (Okay, I've only heard YCBY but I love it)
Glass Casket are pretty solid
Every Time I Die (Hot Damn!, Last Night In Town)
The End (Mathcore, wtfever)
Botch
Buried Inside

etc etc etc

[CityOfEvil]

I like Converge too. I thought many times to listen to Poison The Well, but never took the time to listen to it.

[Eliminator]

why don't you like as i lay dying?

[Hbp]

BtBaM is awesome, but I agree. Questionable in the -core department.

[antihippy]

love converge. like botch. dillinger escape plan is alright. unearth is cool. horse the band is even cooler. that's really about it.

edit: oh yeah, love BTBAM too. and if underoath is metalcore, i love define the great line.

[Cocaine]

Every Time I Die is great, BtBaM is awesome, but i agree. Questionable in the -core department.

I was thinking today, i really don't know if I would consider Converge metalcore. I mean, they fit the description perfect, metal meets hardcore, but they don't sound like metalcore, or what it has become known as i guess.

That's only because most people think metalcore is limited to generic second-wave bullshit like norma jean (sorry mappy)


The Black Dahlia Murder.
I just consider them melo-death

Oh and I forgot to mention Dillinger Escape Plan. One of my favourite bands but really dicey genre-wise. I'd say they could fall under metalcore.

[Eliminator]

mathelcore

[Hbp]

Check out The Opposite of December by PTW. Its such a great album by such a great band.

[CityOfEvil]

love converge. like botch. dillinger escape plan is alright. unearth is cool. horse the band is even cooler. that's really about it.

I only heard few songs of Unearth, but I like it.

[Eliminator]

i love norma jean too

[Hbp]

If you don't like the genre, don't sit here and be sarcastic about it.

[Eliminator]

who are you to say what i like and don't like you faggot cunt ****** ******* ****ing piece of ****???????

[Hbp]

That was very stupid.

[Eliminator]

faggot mallcore pig ****er

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I love Converge, but that's all I really know.

I've been meaning to check out Botch though.

[Nepenthe]

Get We Are The Romans now Apoc. It's like essential.

I'll be the first to say that there's tons of good metalcore out there. Shadows Fall and Killswitch Engage though... no.

[Interviewer/surveyer]

A band like Converge and on the other end of the spectrum a band such as Killswitch Engage are pretty different...what defines a band as "metalcore"?

[DFelon204409]

Misery Signals

[Dark0Distance]

Killswitch is great. Their live show is amazing, but personally my favorite Metalcore bands are Converge, Poison The Well, and The Black Dahlia Murder.

converge, the black dahlia murder? Come on, that's not metalcore.

[antihippy]

converge, the black dahlia murder? Come on, that's not metalcore.

it's t3h mathcore and deathcore d00d. o_0

[AlienEater]

how is converge not metalcore

[Monticello]

They are metalcore last time I checked.
All That Remains are pretty cool from what I can tell.
And what's KsE's best album?

[alonmias]

All Shall Perish, Their second album is more metalcore, the first was closer to death..

Killswitch Engage work, they've got their own thing mastered, Unearth are an amazing bunch of players, their drummer kills, there are a few others. God forbid have got great guitar players, their last album kicked ***.

The problem with the genre is that it made it so big that now we have 50 killswitch wannabe’s and 50 other emo-core pop bands…

[Txus]

The few Metalcore bands I listen to, I totally love. 7 Angels 7 Plagues and Botch are probably my favorite.

[Charlie Manson]

\m/ TXUS ROCK! \m/

[CityOfEvil]

They are metalcore last time I checked.
All That Remains are pretty cool from what I can tell.
And what's KsE's best album?

I only heard two albums. As Daylights Dies and The End of Heartache. I'd say the best is As Daylights Dies, but the other is very good too.

[kalkal50]

anyone heard of a band called "and the hero fails"?

they're decent, but it's impossible to find any of their stuff

probably not worth it tbh

[maxiepaxie]

[Aficionado]

It's ironic but every kid in my school is obsessed with metal core.

It seems like anybody who's anybody likes As I lay dying in my school. In our carnival there was like 5 metalcore bands playing. As for me, I don't like too much. But I enjoy a few bands.

Killswitch engage
Cannae
God dethroned(not sure if they are metal core)
Beyond the sixth seal (not sure if they are)

[Eliminator]

what's ironic about that.

[Aficionado]

I'm not quite sure

[Dimmu Burger]

I like most of the bands mentioned here, but I also like Scars Of Tomorrow for some reason, even though they are kinda generic. Also The Acacia Strain, A Perfect Murder, The Agony Scene, The Bled, Cave-In, Dead To Fall, From Autumn To Ashes, If Hope Dies, and Misery Signals. Yeah I used to be a huge metalcore guy!

[Eliminator]

now youre black metal dude

[Nepenthe]

I saw Cannae mentioned, and they kick ungodly amounts of ***, but they are moreso melodic death metal.

Misery Signals' newest album is a masterpiece, but the previous one is a piece of ****. I could listen to The Failsafe and Sword Of Eyes like 20 times in a row.

[Shred Danson]

Overcast has slowly became one of my favorites. Metalcore these days has gotten stale, and now everyone tries to hide the fact they play metalcore by tuning their guitars down to Drop A and calling it death metal.

God dethroned(not sure if they are metal core)

No.

[Eakflanderyof]

I like a lot of what I've heard from All That Remains. Between the Buried and Me are excellent, but they're really just prog metal because they draw their influences from so many different genres (even some black metal in The Primer and some of their other vocal parts). Unearth are extremely overrated imo. All their breakdowns sound exactly the same. Some bands do good breakdowns, but not Unearth.

[encmetalhead]

Scars Of Tomorrow
-haven't heard much from them...
The Acacia Strain
-are they any good?
A Perfect Murder
-more thrashy but i can see the metalcore
The Agony Scene
-i need to dl their album...
The Bled
-post-hardcore...
Cave-In
-who?
Dead To Fall
-awesome
From Autumn To Ashes
-more on the post-hardcore side...
If Hope Dies
-meh
Misery Signals
- great band

[Eliminator]

Unearth invented the breakdown

[TojesDolan]

Anything with a central unit of process is laugh inducing.

[Hbp]

Sure.

Yeah I used to be a huge metalcore guyWhy Can't you still be? I like Death, Black, Prog, Core, whatever. Metal is Metal.

[Cocaine]

Also, I got Kezia by Protest The Hero today, that such a great album
Not metalcore.

[encmetalhead]

i like any metal that sounds good and if aeveryone esle hates it too bad guess i'll the only true fan when the band makes it big and all the posers start liking them >.> muhahahahahahaha

[Cocaine]

Do you seriously ever think before you post?

[TojesDolan]

Maybe he's touching his wiener before he posts.

[Cocaine]

Seems like he's typing with it more than anything.

[encmetalhead]

I don't care what ya'll say so why say crap about me if i'm just going to skip over it?

Anyway, would you consider this band metalcore? http://www.myspace.com/knivesexchanginghands

[TojesDolan]

If it has breakdowns it's metalcore.

[Nepenthe]

Why ya'll gotta hate?

[CalicoJane]

I don't really know what metalcore is. But bands I've heard described as metalcore that i like include Caliban pretty much one of the forefathers of the genre I've been told [they're like a German Killswitch Engage, but heavier and unlike KE they knock out some amazing songs]. From Autum to Ashes are a big favourite but as someone mentioned they're more 'post-hardcore' [I don't really know what that is either to be honest]. I never could stand Underoath but recently listened to Define the Great Line again and I am hooked, just superb music. Bring Me The Horizon are quite good, clearly influenced by death metal. Sound similar to The Black Dahlia Murder but more brutal at times. I like bits and pieces by 36 Crazy Fists and As I Lay Dying but haven't devoted an awful lot of time to listening to them. Between the Buried have some incredible songs. Poison the Well obviously, althought I'd argue their first album is more straight up hardcore than metalcore. Everything since has been much more melodic and experimental. I also like It Dies Today even if they're percieved as a cheap imitation band by many. I can't stand Botch. They come across as an influential band who every 'cool' kid has heard their favourite metalcore, hardcore bands quote them as an influence and have decided they like them. I think they are severely lacking in the inability to write a good song. If you want mathmetal check out Mudyavne [joking]. Althought at least Mudvayne can write the odd memorable song.

[Cocaine]

Caliban pretty much one of the forefathers of the genre I've been told
no.

[encmetalhead]

ok...that helps...maybe...not really...i don't really knwo what breakdowns sound like

anyway, a month and 7 days till KEH drops their debut on tragic hero

[Cocaine]

Dude seriously what the ****ing hell are you talking about?

[Nepenthe]

Quit hatin. Buncha player haters up in here.

[encmetalhead]

Line one clearly stated i did not knwo what breakdowns sounded like

line 2 clearly stated that the band i just posted (Knives Exchanging hands, or KEH for short) was releasinf their debut in a month and 7 days on Tragic Hero Records

[Daven]

It was clearly stated.

[TojesDolan]

Breakdown is

*arpeggiated tone-centered-chords*
*vocal line, with something cliché like "leaving you behind" or "i'm done the world is fear" or anything containing the words pain, leave, hate, love, behind, going, you, me, in CLEAN VOCALS (very important)*
*crescendo*
*back to chorus*

[Monticello]

Or where it slows down majorly, most of the time.

[Eliminator]

that's in punk/hardcore

[Cocaine]

breakdowns are just bridges wtf ever.

[2muchket!]

I like a lot local bands which mix up metalcore, death metal, black metal and Melodic Death Metal. But yeah I love KSE, As I Lay Dying, Flood Of Red, Converge and Botch.

[Hbp]

words pain, leave, hate, love, behind, going, you, me, Haha, you, me. As I Lay Dying are allright. For generic stuff its aight, but Converge and Botch are pioneers

If it has breakdowns it's metalcore. Which brings me back to my Converge argument.

Not metalcore. Well, its Metal with, uhhh...well, maybe a lil bit Metalcore.

[Hbp]

Does anyone like It Dies Today?

[Nepenthe]

No.

[Shred Danson]

Does anyone like It Dies Today?

Scene kids with bad taste and Matt, yes.

[Mr. Ron]

Just listen to Coalesce.

[Hbp]

Well, its a gulity pleasure of mine, Along with The Devil Wears Prada and As I Lay Dying (to a certain extent). lawl. I just flushed all my good music tatses down the toilet with that one.

[Nepenthe]

I don't mind a song or two from Devil Wears Prada. It Dies Today reeks of terrible though. And while I'm being honest, I don't have anything against As I Lay Dying. Forever and Song 10 are both good songs, and there's a few cool riffs on Shadows Are Security. I wouldn't ever listen to more than a couple songs though.

Coalesce would be so awesome if they had a good vocalist.

[Hbp]

My god. Im gonna state the obviosu here. They may not be metalcore, or maybe just slightly, but Kezia by Protest The Hero is just...godly.

[Txus]

Coalesce are ACE!

I just have Functioning on Impatience but it's perfect.

[Nepenthe]

Except for the annoying clean vocals. They have a nice sense of urgency in them though.

[Txus]

The clean ones are weird, but I can stand them.

[Mr. Ron]

Too bad they have an awesome vocalist.

[Hbp]

I need to check those guys out, but idk if i need anymore metalcore. I have about 500+ songs of it. 300+ death metal. 300+ other metal.

[Mr. Ron]

Oh and check out all else failed.

[Cocaine]

My god. Im gonna state the obviosu here. They may not be metalcore, or maybe just slightly, but Kezia by Protest The Hero is just...godly.

not metalcore at all jesus ****in christ.

[Txus]

Oh and check out all else failed.

Archetype FTW.

[Hbp]

But im in a metalcore forum. Ok well, i said they may not be metalcore. So they arent, but i would give that album a 10 if i could. ive listened to it 7 times today. I got it...today.

[Mr. Ron]

Archetype FTW.

A perfect album if there ever was one.

[Hbp]

Archtype by All Else Failed?

[Mr. Ron]

I'll post the entire album later.

[Hbp]

ok. you've got me interested.

[Mr. Ron]

[A Dead Modernist]

The only "metalcore" band I enjoy is Converge.

[Cocaine]

Why did you put "metalcore" in quotations?

[Mr. Ron]

http://www.myspace.com/bloodlet

[Eakflanderyof]

I've found that death metal bands tend to do way more interesting breakdowns than metalcore bands.

[A Dead Modernist]

Why did you put "metalcore" in quotations?

Not sure if their even considered that. Am not to good with genres tbh

[antihippy]

Breakdown!

[Cocaine]

anyone like Starkweather? I've had Croatoan on here for a while but never really listened to it.

[Concubine]

Starkweather rules

and how come no one mentioned Deadguy yet?

[Dimmu Burger]

Why Can't you still be?

I still like the genre a good bit, but i was pretty exclusive to it but In Flames got me into Melodic Death and that got me into death metal and that led to black metal and now im starting to dabble in Doom and Folk/Viking stuff. So I've broadened my horizons a bit.


Oh and Cave-In are amazing, i'm suprised nobody's heard of them.

[Concubine]

if youre talking about old cave in then yeah

[antihippy]

define the great line by underoath is absolutely ace. i've been listening to it alot lately.

[Txus]

Cave In are good, not amazing.

[Dimmu Burger]

Old Cave-In is good yes, but the newer stuff is amazing in its own way. Antenna and Perfect Pitch Black are brilliant.

[Concubine]

Until Your Heart Stops is ****in incredible

[Txus]

That's the only album I consider excellent, their other albums are good/ok.

[Concubine]

pretty much

although i really like Jupiter as well

[Dimmu Burger]

Jupiter is some really cool spacey stuff, which im starting to get into a little more, meaning the whole ambient rock sort of thing, like Boris.

[2muchket!]

Can't wait for Architects and Devil Sold His Soul releasing their albums in June. Some decent english metalcore for a change.

[Hbp]

Poison The Well is superb.

[Cocaine]

Architects are decent, their new album leaked so I might check it out.

[Hbp]

Some decent english metalcore for a change. Not happening. BFMV already spoiled anything Metalcore and English. Well, Welsh or whatever they are.

[antihippy]

welsh

[Monticello]

Architects are decent, their new album leaked so I might check it out.

Could you link me that? That would be sweet.

[Nepenthe]

Architects are awful.

[Cocaine]

Could you link me that? That would be sweet.

Check your rep.

[Dimmu Burger]

Misery Signals' newest album is a masterpiece, but the previous one is a piece of ****. I could listen to The Failsafe and Sword Of Eyes like 20 times in a row.

Do you like the sound of the recording on the new album? I love it but the low end is really umm.... low and I can't get it to sound right. And how do you feel about the new vocalist?

[Monticello]

Check your rep.

You're the man

[Hbp]

Do you like the sound of the recording on the new album? I love it but the low end is really umm.... low and I can't get it to sound right. And how do you feel about the new vocalist? The low end is really thin, but it's crisp. I like it. The new vocalist is really meh, but he doesn't take away from how good the album is on a whole.

[Hbp]

Has anyone heard of The Handshake Murders?

[Brandon_S]

I don't mind old Everytime I die,but thats were I draw the line,I use to be into metalcore,but it bored me after a while.

www.myspace.com/camdenripper

www.myspace.com/playyourpart if you like metalcore

[CityOfEvil]

Can someone recommend me like, a good band? I don't know a lot of band in metalcore.

[Nepenthe]

Avenged Sevenfold

[Hbp]

Converge, Poison The Well, Every Time I Die, and even though not metalcore, Protest The Hero.

[Cocaine]

How the hell can a low-end be thin? Thin is usually trebly, and trebly =/= low end :S

[encmetalhead]

from the one track i've heard Poison the well doesn't sound too great

[Hbp]

How the hell can a low-end be thin? Thin is usually trebly, and trebly =/= low end :S

That's how the bass sounds. It's really high. Have you ever listened to the new MS?

from the one track i've heard Poison the well doesn't sound too greatWhat song did you hear?

[i am the robots]

Anything Poison The Well did before Tear From The Red is pretty lame. Everything from that album forward is great though. The demo they did last year with some songs from Versions and some unreleased stuff is probably their best recording.

Also, I was just listening to Killswitch Engage's self titled album, I forgot how good Jesse Leach is.

[CityOfEvil]

I never heard him. Is he better than Howard?

[i am the robots]

In my opinion, hell yeah. If you haven't heard Alive Or Just Breathing or Killswitch Engage, I highly suggest you should.

Also, listen to the song Take This Oath on The End Of Heartache, Jesse does the high screams in the background when Howard screams in the verses, sings the chorus, and does the screaming during that, "break free," part at the end.

[CityOfEvil]

Ok.. I listened to Take this Oath, but didnt know Jesse was on it. I'll listen to both Jesse's album.

[i am the robots]

Jesse's voice is better than Howard's, imo, but Howard's technique is far superior, so it's really a toss up, thus both have huge followings.

Jesse's lyrics are sweet in a generic Christian sense though.

[CityOfEvil]

I love Howard's voice. I like the way he can changes to clean voice to harsh voice. Are songs similar or very different?

[i am the robots]

Alive Or Just Breathing has a lot of clean parts, Killswitch Engage has a few.

[CityOfEvil]

Ok, I like both so that's not a problem :p but like, btw Howard and Jesse. Is it like samething with different voice or is it totaly different from The End of Heartache and As daylights dies?

[Hbp]

Alot different. I went through and just listened to every one of their albums over in a row, and it is like night and day with Howard and Jesse, but It's hard to say who's superior.

[AA-12]

Howard is wayyyyyy better.

[Hbp]

I don't know about way, but one could say he has the edge and I would not argue, because it's so close.

[CityOfEvil]

Well, I think Im gonna make my own opinion cause one say Jesse is better, the other Howard.

[i am the robots]

Howard is wayyyyyy better.

We disagree?! NO!

Josh, seriously.... Howard's black.

[AA-12]

Yeah well at least he got his voice right.

:p

[i am the robots]

Well, Jesse knows how to sing properly now. Too bad Seemless is only good to listen to every now and then. :(

Regardless, you have to admit Jesse's voice still sounded fantastic when he was in KSE. I just love how his hardcore style vocals sound like Mike Muir.

[CityOfEvil]

Is Jesse with another band now?

[Concubine]

yeah

Seemless. A hard rock band

[antihippy]

never really liked killswitch engage that much.

[2muchket!]

Architects are decent, their new album leaked so I might check it out.

June the 9th in this country. I might review it actually.


But BFMV aren't that bad seriously. They're riffs are well done and the drums are ok. Fair enough the lyrics are appalling but still.

And whats that I see someone with a BMTH aviator. Thought everyone apart from me despised them on this forum.

[antihippy]

who's bmth?

[RetiredAt21]

I think both BFMV and BMTH are both awful.

Listen to Rorshchach.

[Concubine]

90's metalcore rules

yo retired upload some Rorschach, i only have like 2 songs from them

[RetiredAt21]

Maybe later. I still feel lazy from waking up.

[antihippy]

who the hell's BMTH.

[RetiredAt21]

who the hell's BMTH.

Bring Me The Horizon.

*barf*

[2muchket!]

They're not amazing and never will be granted. And the majority of their fans are young or pre-teen posers but they write some good riffs and the solo's ain't bad.

[RetiredAt21]

Good riffs? What riffs? Surely you're referring to their over-usage of the breakdown.

[Monticello]

Yup, breakdowns killed their album.

[RetiredAt21]

I wouldn't say just the breakdowns. Everything about them screams "generic as **** and we wouldn't be around if metalcore wasn't hip right now."

[Nepenthe]

I have to agree, Bring Me The Horizon do have some pretty killer riffs. The "every first born dying now" part in Pray For Plagues is cool, and the one near the end of Off The Heezay is pretty sweet. Black And Blue has a few cool ones too. Overall, they are awful, terrible breakdowns, most of the songs are just horrible, but they do bust out a good riff here and there.

[kalkal50]

Favs:

Unearth
Between the Buried and Me
Converge
And the Hero Fails
All Shall Perish
Burning Skies
Lamb of God (not really metalcore)

Bring Me The Horizon is awful, sorry.

[2muchket!]

Yeah there breakdowns are terrible.

[ThePrimer]

I'm not sure if they're Metalcore but Heaven Shall Burn has some good stuff

My favs are (in no particular order):
- All That Remains
- The Human Abstract
- Killswitch Engage
- The End
- Becoming The Archetype (They changed their style in their new album a little)
- Everytime I Die (They were amazing in a concert I went)

I don't consider BTBAM and LoG metalcore, but theyre awesome

[metalhead17]

I never hated metalcore,its not my favorite genre but its deffinetely up there.

[RetiredAt21]

There aren't really that many good metalcore bands.

[Blashyrkh]

I'm not a at all a metalcore fan..It's probably because I have no idea what metalcore is. What qualifications are needed?

[RetiredAt21]

I'm not a at all a metalcore fan..It's probably because I have no idea what metalcore is. What qualifications are needed?

Tune down to drop-C and play breakdowns. That's pretty much metalcore, nowadays.

[Blashyrkh]

I see.. "nowadays"? What about the other days?

[RetiredAt21]

Metalcore now is almost nothing like how it used to be. Listen to a band like Rorschach and then listen to a new band like August Burns Red and you'll be able to hear the difference. Metalcore nowadays is more metal than anything, you can't hear the hardcore influence in most bands today.

[Blashyrkh]

So it's one of those come and go genres like grunge? If it's the way your explaining it to me, I don't believe it will be around much longer.

[ThePrimer]

I don't believe it will be around much longer.
The dude's right... There are a lot of crappy metalcore bands, but the good ones will start to dissappear :/
Or change their style (Trivium :mad: )

[Blashyrkh]

Oh so Trivium was a metalcore band. I wasn't sure which bands were and which weren't. I have timewarner cable and I listen to the music channels. They used to play that song "Pull Harder of the Strings of your Martyr". I think that was the name of it. I can't remember..not many braincells left.

[Hbp]

but the good ones will start to dissappear :/Never they'll stay forever and rule supreme.

LoG are horrible keep them out of this thread.

Everybody I know says LoG has the best live show they've ever seen.

I should've known better than to bring up an actual metalcore band in the metalcore thread.

And no, they have 5.

Meh, I thought the other 2 I checked out were ok, I might give them another chance.

Not Metalcore at all, but Dag Nasty have been kicking my *** lately.

You have heard Progression Through Unlearning right? If someone was stupid enough to say they have one good album (you), they'd have to be talking about Progression.

Yeh, I'm talking about that one. Caboose is really good.

Yes that song is like everything cool about Snapcase x2.

I've been to 5. Muse, Flood Of Red, Eternal Lord, Architects and Devil Sold His Soul.

[RetiredAt21]

LoG are horrible keep them out of this thread.

Agreed.

[2muchket!]

Any chance I could get a link to that Architects leak ?

[RetiredAt21]

Architects is awesome.

[2muchket!]

They are indeed. I'm hoping to see them in York in july.

[antihippy]

could anyone hook me up to it?

[ThePrimer]

I've been to around 300 I think. None of which were LoG shows.
I've been to one lol

[Nepenthe]

Architects are too bland to be good. At all.

[ThePrimer]

Has anyone heard Maroon?

[Cocaine]

Maroon sucks.

[CityOfEvil]

So I justed listen to Alive or just breathing from KSE. An excellent album I like it.

Was the first time I heard Jesse's voice and I like it.

[jrowa001]

the only metalcore band i have seen live is Parkway Drive and they were really good. their cd is one of my fav metalcore albums.

[Concubine]

Parkway Drive was really bad

[Monticello]

Pretty much all metal bands in my area play at least a bit of metalcore. So I've seen a fair few metalcore shows....

Download Festival this weekend :upset:

[RetiredAt21]

Hahahaha, Parkway Drive sucks balls, listen to Botch or something.

[jrowa001]

i do listen to botch, you should have said "do you listen to botch?" instead of assuming i dont. i like parkway drive, so what?

[RetiredAt21]

They're horrible. HORRIBLE.

[metalhead17]

Botch is great!

[TojesDolan]

Maroon 5 is good.

[metalhead17]

Maroon 5 is good.
LOL!

[ThePrimer]

Maroon sucks.
I liked the song Annular Eclipse

[Nepenthe]

Analar Eclipse

[Monticello]

Maroon 5 is good.
Agreed.

[RetiredAt21]

Botch is great!

Indeed. :thumb:

[Hbp]

Maylene & The Sons Of Disaster.

[Nepenthe]

Isn't a metalcore band by any stretch of the word.

[DFelon204409]

This has nothing to do with metalcore other than the fact that there's metal mixed in with punk but how good is Strung Out? Jeez.

[Concubine]

i haven't heard the new one

[Hbp]

There is Breakdown chugga in that, are you guys deaf?

[Concubine]

if you're being serious then youre an idiot

[Hbp]

Didn't you just say you havn't even heard the new stuff?

btw, anything you guys interpret as hositle or short or whatever, I apologize in advance. I'm having a terrible night.

[Concubine]

yes i haven't heard the new album, but i've heard enough of their stuff to know that they are in no way related to metalcore or sound like one

[Eliminator]

but dude there's chugging

[Concubine]

but dude there's chugging

is it in drop C tuning?

[Nepenthe]

Are we talking about Maylene And The Sons Of Disaster? Not even close to metalcore.

But oh yeah I forgot the Underoath guy is in it so it must be metalcore duh stupid stupid stupid.

[AA-12]

Maylene isn't metalcore but it is one of the best bands ever. So god damn good.

[Txus]

I agree with Josh. I love their themes and everything, amazing ****.

And Strung Out are ace.

[Nepenthe]

According to Josh there is 350 best bands in the world.

They are very good, but they kind of got old after a couple weeks. Road Home To Panther Creek, Tough As John Jacobs, and Gusty Like The Wind are the only tracks that hold up past then.

[Txus]

You don't like the new album? What about Dry The River, Raised By The Tide, Tale Of The Runaways? All amazing tracks.

And yeah, Josh loves everything :lol:

[AA-12]

There's few bands I love a ton though. Maylene is one. Every song they've made is equally flawless.

[Nepenthe]

To be honest I haven't listened to the new album, nor do I really want to.

No, he either wets himself over it, or he hates it hah. Josh, that is.

[Txus]

Hey, Anthony, I'm smoking and listening to Ulver and Current 93 :D

Lets see how it goes!

/Randooooooooom

[AA-12]

I'm listening to Current 93 right now.

[Nepenthe]

Yay at least some people look at those threads.

I've listened to that Current 93 album while going to sleep every night for the past 2 weeks. I usually drift off around Riverdeadbank.

Listening to Dalek right now though. Tossing down some bud selects. Last weekend of house arrest!

[Anglachel]

I'm listening to Boards of Canada right now

/moar random

6,666th post

[Eliminator]

6666 Satan Hahahahahah Lol

[Nepenthe]

Speed Satan and Slayer, I need to make a thread for this week. I think I'm going to finally do the Miasma And The Carousel Of Headless Horses one I was going to do like 3 weeks ago.

[Txus]

Boards of Canada is good stuff.

@Anthony: Nice man, are you smoking after that?

And yeah, I love those threads. You're going to keep doing them? If you don't, I'll kill you :mad:

[Nepenthe]

Yeah, read above hah.

Eh I'm still on probation until I go bald, or who knows the **** long. So no smokage for awhile. But, it'll just be all the sweeter once I can, that's the way I'm lookin at it. I thought it would be so hard to not smoke, but after a week or so you get used to it. It's just going to be so ****ing nice to be able to go out again, party and drink and shroom with other people and ****.

[Anglachel]

Boards of Canada is good stuff.

@Anthony: Nice man, are you smoking after that?

Yes it is.

Ah, nice.

And that sucks man, probation I mean, but well...that's life, uh?

I haven't shroom'd in quite a bit, I don't feel like it tbqh. I've been smoking lots lately though, the good thing is that I can stop without any trouble, I've been clean for 6 months and then 6 months of pure 4:20 action :D

[AA-12]

You could always still smoke and fake your piss tests.

[Anglachel]

piss before you smoke, and have extra bottle of it handy for the tests
