01.06.10 | Because "Metalcore" is a verb. |

01.06.10 | 7, 9, 5, 2 = sex |

01.06.10 | babe let's go metalcorin' tonite |
ninjuice
01.06.10 | great list but 2, 7 and 9 will be hated on cause they're "generic". |
Emim
01.06.10 | This is in response to ThePalaceofWisdom's list, hence #10. All of these own imo, generic or not. |
Emim
01.06.10 | Generic =/= bad |
ziroth
01.06.10 | the word generic = not used enough on this site |
gmurcielago14
01.06.10 | 1 is alright, 2 is not only generic, but also pretty atrocious. |
Emim
01.06.10 | Gtfo, 2 is very good. |
chaseguitar
01.06.10 | 9 & 10 are awesome. especially 10. and 9. |
Chewie
01.06.10 | Mr. Feeny ftw |
cvlts
01.06.10 | I have the hardest time calling 5 metalcore, but thats probably cause I'm an idiot lol =P |
Emim
01.06.10 | Yeah, 5 just doesn't feel like Metalcore to me, but deep down I know it to be true.
Tbqh, Mr. Feeney > rest |
Xxplosive
01.06.10 | 2, 4, 6-10 are all great. |
Captain North
01.06.10 | Dude, where is Poison the Well and Misery Signals? Shame on you. And III: In The Eyes of Fire is better than 7. |
MindTrain
01.06.10 | If people know what it is then it's too generic |
Emim
01.06.10 | This isn't a "Top Metalcore albums of all time" list, just one where I grabbed a bunch of albums. It was more to mock Palace's list (hence the title being the same). |
SHAKEandBAKE
01.06.10 | nice man. Your list is better |
sspedding
01.06.10 | Great to see a snow capped romance here. Love it along with 2,4,7 and 9. Some of my favourite albums ever here. |
eternium
01.06.10 | All of these are good albums.
I don't consider any of them "generic" because they were still the first bands to play the style. Example being All That Remains, one of the first melodic metalcore bands, a now mostly generic and abused genre.

01.06.10 | pic brings lulz |
Athom
01.06.10 | the 10 (+1) most essential metalcore albums (imo) are:
Converge - Jane Doe
Botch - We Are the Romans
Coalesce - Functioning on Impatience
Deadguy - Fixation on a Coworker
The Dillinger Escape Plan - Calculating Infinity
Cave In - Until Your Heart Stops
Every Time I Die - Hot Damn!
Hopesfall - No Wings to Speak Of
Integrity - Humanity is the Devil
Poison the Well - You Come Before You
Shai Hulud - That Within Blood Ill-Tempered. |
Powerban
01.06.10 | I find it funny how no one ever hates on Chimaira here. It's probably because they're a decent band sometimes. I always totally forget about them though. |
Emim
01.06.10 | @Powerban:
Chimaira's middle two albums are very well done. The new one is kinda boring though.
@redsky:
I agree for the most part on all of those.
@Shakeandbake:
Thanks man.
|
Athom
01.06.10 | chimaira suck balls. they are boing on cd and seeing them live is like shoving a dick into your ear. |
Emim
01.06.10 | I must respectfully disagree with you, red. |
intothepit83
01.06.10 | r u speaking from personal experience, red? |
Athom
01.06.10 | yes. i've seen chimaira live about 3 or 4 times, and further more i've shoved a lot of dicks in my ears in my 22 years. the experience is the same. |
intothepit83
01.06.10 | i had to ask..... personally, i think seeing and listening to chimaira compares to have ur balls ritualistically removed by an african woman with a dull machete, but hey, that's just me |
eternium
01.06.10 | Newest Chimaira album is boring (mostly because of tempo), but everything else is great. |
Emim
01.06.10 | The instrumentals are great imo. I can see where many would not like Hunter for a vocalist, but I don't mind him. |
Tits McGee
01.06.10 | you really didn't teach anything you just posted some standard metalcore albums + a few crappy ones |
TAB
01.06.10 | well for starters it needs between the buried and me and protest the hero. Needs more old school metalcore. |
shade
01.06.10 | MOAR BOTCH |

01.06.10 | As I said earlier:
"This isn't a "Top Metalcore albums of all time" list, just one where I grabbed a bunch of albums. It was more to mock Palace's list (hence the title being the same)."
|
Emim
01.06.10 | @TAB:
I suppose The Silent Circus, yes, but BtBaM has more of a Progressive Death sound now than metalcore. I don't even know what to classify Protest the Hero as. |
Bandido
01.06.10 | 6 is doooooppppe |
Emim
01.06.10 | Yes, yes it is. |
ThePalestMexican
01.08.10 | Very true on the Melodic Metalcore genre thing, it's getting raped into oblivion lately.
Very nice list, #1 is sex, #2 used to be sex, #3 meh, #4 I actually didn't like, #5 is sex, #6 is sex, #7 is meh, #8 is a lesbian threesome, #9 is sex, #10......maybe the next album. |
Emim
01.08.10 | That's a lot of sex. |
BrahTheSunGod
01.08.10 | These albums are a lot of sex, I likey. Glad to see 1 and 2 on there.
Y'know, people should just stop considering melodic metalcore (KsE, ATR, etc) the same genre as first-wave metalcore (Converge, Botch, etc). Every metalcore list ever goes the same way:
MM guy: "Dude the new Mis Sigs album is fucking awesome! Some of my favorite metalcore!"
First-Wave guy: "LOL WTF THATS NOT METALCORE GO LISTEN TO CONVERGE AND BOTCH AND STFU"
Not the same. Not at all. |
Emim
01.08.10 | Exactly, they have very different feels to them. Both have their place imo. |
Ulsufyring
01.08.10 | badly. |
Emim
01.08.10 | Hey! My personal troll, how ya been? Glad to see you didn't choke to death on your own spit or balls or something. |

01.10.10 | Boy Meets World, what the fuck? |
Emim
01.10.10 | It's an inside joke, we'll tell you when you're older. |
Dreamsoffew
01.10.10 | Awww :( |
Emim
01.10.10 | It's a long story, this list is a spoof/mockery of ThePalaceofWisdom's list, and Boy Meets World came up during that. |
witchxrapist
01.10.10 | this list sucks |
Relinquished
01.10.10 | list is kinda bad |

tbh |
Emim
01.10.10 | I was with you until 3 and 10.
No one seems to get that this isn't a "Best Ever" or "Top Ten" list. It's just a bunch of random metalcore albums as a spoof of Palace's list. |
Dreamsoffew
01.10.10 | There is some good on this list though. |
Relinquished
01.10.10 | 5 and 8 as a whole are good albums. Some songs on 1, 2, 3, 7 are good. 9 is meh and 3 and 6 suck. |
Jaskolkaaa
01.23.10 | 4,5,8,9 = win!
lol @ 10 |
ShadowRemains
03.13.10 | "#8 is a lesbian threesome"
hahahaha...anyway 2, 7 and 8 are badass. |
Carnifex
03.13.10 | Great list dude, I would've personally added Misery Signal's Controller to this list as well. |
Emim
03.13.10 | Yeah, there's a lot more I should've added, but this was just a bunch that came to mind to spoof the other list. |
Emim
04.07.10 | bump |
Inveigh
04.07.10 | I (mostly) approve of this list, although I don't generally think of Chimaira as metalcore (and I find them incredibly boring). List does need more Alive or Just Breathing and You Come Before You, as well as Botch + Coalesce. I like the idea though, I'd pos if that was an option. |
Emim
04.07.10 | As I said before:
"This is in response to ThePalaceofWisdom's list, hence #10. All of these own imo, generic or not."
So, this isn't a comprehensive list. You'd have to go through all my lists for one of those. |
