it just seems jane doe is held in much higher regards than any of the other albums are, thats all |

it isn't a metal song. bunit. 'Jane Doe' is their best record. it may not have their best single songs, but as a comprehensive piece of art 'Jane Doe' is unrivaled in Converge's discography as well as the discography of most 'extreme' music. |
It's a skrams song
|
Jane Doe is their best sorry. It just goes through so many emotional stages and different soundscapes as well as just being flat out brutal as hell. It's a transcendent piece of art.
The first Converge I heard was No Heroes and I hated it, but that album grew on me too. I liked Jane Doe on first listen. |
ok so i guess i did pick the best one to buy first, ive heard a lot of people talking about no heroes, thats thier newest one correct?
|
not really. that album is such a loosely defined album genre wise, i would just label it as Converge. The Saddest Day is obviously one of the birth places of modern metalcore though. You even could extend that to hardcore, but that would be making some what of a stretch.

yes, it is based in thrashy short songs as well as some of the sounds they explored on 'You Fail Me'. really good record even if the ordering is a tad disappointing. |
But noone else sounds even remotly like Converge, so I don't see it as a birth place, more of an incredibly well done, never duplicated songs in modern metalcore.
|
The only track I really listen to off of PTES is "The Saddest Day" and then sometimes I like to rock "Shingles."
I listen to Jane Doe and and When Forever Comes Crashing a lot, and sometimes I'll bring out Ne Heroes but thats grown off of me. |
they have that one down at my local record store so i think ill pick that one up tomorrow and see what i think of it, all this talk of converge dammit made me put in jane doe
|
lots of bands sound like early Converge, lots of bands try to sound like later Converge.
they just have played with a lot of different sounds of the years, as a band that has been around as long as them should be expect to. @ the harry potter fan. |
what no lol thats hpf omg
|
"ok" harry potter fan
|
"The Saddest Day"...the birth of generic JUN JUN WEE metalcore. I still like that song, though.
|
They bring the Juns. It is, after all, all about the Juns.
|
obviously all about the Juns. and the WEES just make the Juns better amirite?
|
No, WEES are really f[I]u[/I]cking annoying. Too many bands overuse them sh[I]i[/I]ts.
|
WEEs are a privilege not a right.
|
WEES are cool if used sparingly.
I think one of the better more modern metalcore bands is Architects. |

because fu[font=verdana]ck[/font] you c[font=verdana]unt[/font] |
they don't do it in a way that's cliche but they still do it too much.
|
My summary of the past few pages:
Pixies points out common knowledge, Justin points out that he doesn't like things. Everything is in order then. |
