Anyone got some deeper cuts that sound like these guys? Looking for more where the guitars are this lead-heavy.

I'd appreciate it for sure. Trivium and A7X came to mind for me

Yeah, both those and Atreyu were my first thoughts but I am pretty sure I have seen you in those threads. Waking the Fallen and Ascendancy would group with this quite well



Imma reachin a lil bit here but these aren't in your ratings so mebbe one of these will scratch the same itch:

I am Abomination - Let the Future Tell the Truth

The Agonist - Prisoners



These are reachin even a lil further:

Funeral for a Friend - Hours (I kinda assume you know who this band is and they are typically phxc, but this is one of their more riff heavy albums paired with some nice leads over the top)

Himsa - Summon in Thunder (this is more melodeathy core but the guitars have a similar approach kinda maybe sorta so just let the awesome overcome you)

Son of Aurelius - Under a Western Sun (more on the proggy mxc side of things but this band is a fucking riff machine so yeah, I think this might tickle your fancy regardless if it sounds like this or not)

Hope you like em, even if they maybe aren't quite what you are looking for in this



Yeah, IaA would probs be the most similar out of those. I was very surprised you didn't have any Funeral for a Friend in your ratings, actually



I'd also say Wovenwar's S/t could draw some comparisons, but I am pretty sure you have heard that, too

If I had to actively avoid hearing this band I would work hard at it. Thankfully no one actually listens to this band anymore and isn’t one of the 50 shitty hard rock bands my annoying I mean lovely wife listens to.

Never really listened to them, but know the name. My ratings are pretty hit or miss most of the time.

second single's out, damn this might even be on track to beating this album if there's still a few Gravity-influenced numbers that are closer to its best songs as well.

Storm, their new song "Parasite" has a bit of a vibe closer to something here but it's like a matured take on this. you've got a 3 on this, clearly it's not THAT shitty to you.

That just tells me you are a little kid with a lot to learn. parasite is nothing like this album and not more mature.

Well they definitely stopped with the super misogynistic feel, I've grown to feel this album has aged kinda poorly with its lyrical content. Gravity is a huge step up there, it's just a shame that consistency is a bit of an issue.

I can agree with the rapey lyrics especially hit the floor and room 409. However both those songs are cool so it's tolerable enough to me.



Also I second that Himsa album Emim. Don't sleep on it.

These guys have a knack for writing lyrics that make their mediocre songs significantly worse.



The Poison was misogynistic as fuck, but for some weird reason they had good songs. Like, did they even write The Poison themselves, outside of the lyrics? I'm beginning to have some doubts
