True. Well Overcast and Aftershock are early/mid 90's though. They're the only really early bands I know.

Just listen to Hate Eternal \m/

Fail.

Hate Eternal? As in the horrible death metal band, or am I missing something?

He probably means the horrible death metal band.

Converge isn't metalcore.

Say what you will. But if you listen to ALL of their albums, you'll find it pretty difficult to call them metalcore.

Seriousley...

No, if you listen to all their albums you'll just hear a distinctive blend of metal and hardcore that's too hard to call either way, thus making it metalcore.

Seriously...

It sounds like jeff hanneman sold the guitarist all the riffs he wrote from his teenage years, and never used.

To me, its dirty thrash metal.

lol

Or it's hardcore with "dirty thrash metal riffs", thus making it metallic hardcore thus making it metalcore.

You're the only person I've seen dumb enough to say they werent metalcore, and not surprisingly your only proof is "they sound like they're using Slayer riffs".

Good job, because the band themselves have said that they were "hardcore kids with leftover Slayer riffs"

I never mentioned slayer. I mentioned Jeff Hanneman... and interesting that they say that.

Anyway... I hear more thrash than hardcore. And ****, I even hear a little hardcore in most thrash, so to me... its thrash. Argue all you want, when I listen to this music, I will always hear thrash.

[QUOTE=ThoughtlessThoughts;15511725]I never mentioned slayer. I mentioned Jeff Hanneman[/QUOTE]

Uh, and Jeff Hanneman is in what band?

Psh, Megadeth.

[QUOTE=Cocaine;15511763]Uh, and Jeff Hanneman is in what band?[/QUOTE]

Cannibal Corpse... no wait... Nile.

Metallica?
Carcass?
The Flaming Lips?
Hanson?
The Jimi Hendrix Expirience?
Wait... I've got it. The Eagles.

Double post, ban him.

If I was trying to be funny... I'd say, 2 fish are in a tank, one turns to the other and says.... "how do you drive this thing?"

major lulz

Yeah, now if [I]I[/I] was trying to be funny I'd say: "Converge isn't metalcore guys... I hear a lot more thrash in them"

If I wanted to be funnie and bring the lulz....

I don't know. I'm too tired to think of an answer :(

Hot damn... touche'.

I think the only way this can be settled, is by not aruging over the internet... because we're eating away potentially productive minutes of our lives doing it.

In his defence, Converge definitely used to emphasize the thrash. Still doesn't make them a thrash band.

Coke, have you heard anything of a new Buried Inside album?
