Chuggy metalcore riffing + breakdowns = metalcore no matter how many guitar solos and progressive influences they sprinkle on top.[/QUOTE]

Breakdowns don't equal metalcore and neither does 'chuggy metalcore riffing' (da fuk)

this came from wikipedia so it must be right: Metalcore is a fusion genre combining various elements of extreme metal and hardcore punk. The name of it is a portmanteau of the names of the two genres. The term took on its current meaning in the mid-1990s, describing bands such as Earth Crisis, Deadguy and Integrity.[3] The earliest of these groups, Integrity, began performing in 1988; some modern practitioners of the genre include Killswitch Engage, Underoath, All That Remains, As I Lay Dying and The Devil Wears Prada.[4] Metalcore is distinguished from other punk metal fusions by its emphasis on breakdowns:[5] slower, intense passages conducive to moshing.

New Counterparts is great.

yes it is. seeing them next month. stoked.

If breakdowns equal hardcore parts then suffocation are deathcore going by your logic.

Lol quoting from wikipedia too.

I almost saw them at a random garage show. Sadly they had begun their drive to the next venue and weren't there. I still saw Shai Hulud though, so it's all good.

I think it's a fair assumption that PtH have some 'core' aspects, but they're not a Metalcore band.

I'd love to see Shai Hulud live. And I'd love to see Misery Signals again.

they used to play melodic hardcore

now they play power metal

sure one could imply metalcore by association

but nah

Power metal? Now we're just getting ridiculous.

They do have some similarities to power metal. The lyrics are straight up power metal though.

power pop metal core jazz fusion

tbh

Sounds like 'mathcore' to me idk.

Who gives a fuck when you're hatexmoshing the fuck out of a room to dismembodied anyway tbh

ket! do you like Kerouac?

I figure you would cuz you know UK band n such

They're on one of my favourite labels dude yeah they're fucking sweet.

they probably play locally (to you) all the time

/jelly

I've caught half of their set before (poor time keeping by my friends ffs) and they were pretty dec live.

Check out Bastions and Antares, they're on the same label as Kerouac, and you may as well check out Santa Karla another sweet uk band.

i feel mad left out of this thread at this point

hey remember when that stupid faggot h&d tried to keep left for dead and the swarm off of the elite metalcore list? what a fucking faggot

Remember Justin who kept crying about it, what a fucking baby, and a waste of life, who will end up being a social burden.

I'm the elitiest in this thread - deal with it.

What do you guys think of the new Carrier? I think its better than the S/T but has nothing on NLCSM.

kerouac is sweet

new carrier is eh. not really that big on them.

left for dead is better than both.

etc.

backed

new the carrier is great.

[QUOTE=burtreynolds;18334701]new the carrier is great.[/QUOTE]

I've been starting to like Left for Dead and Cursed more than the Swarm lately.

Cursed > The Swarm > Left Für Dead

opinions

[QUOTE=SlightlyEpic;18335412]Cursed > The Swarm > Left Für Dead

opinions[/QUOTE]

Cursed is probably in the same spot for me... but switch Left for Dead and The Swarm and that's me.

but The Swarm is like a better Left For Dead

minus the china cymbal

the swarm is def better than left for dead

the swarm is badass

[QUOTE=nevertoolate;18335078]yeah it is pretty dec burty boy, btw your dig has to be one of my fave melodic hardcore releases of the year, band is excellent live too[/QUOTE]
