Because The Internet
I've really got little to say. He probably should be number 2 on the list, but I haven't
been spinning him as much as I usually do. Ever since his Mixtape Culdesac, I've
fallen in love with his nerdy-ness and the openness he pens into almost all of his
work. BTI is my favorite album by him, though my favorite songs from him are all
off prior releases (Royalty, Camp, and Culdesac). | | 4 |  | Don Broco
Priorities
There is something downright infectious about these dudes. There's not much that I
can say. They're absolutely energetic and a blast to watch (granted I've only seen
them via YouTube). They've produced multiple songs that have never left my head
since day one, and have become a favorite of my friend group. Combining funky
grooves, boastfulness, and a touch of their former post-hardcore sound, their
bombastic sound has become a staple to my listening regimen. | | 3 |  | Port Blue
The Airship
Every night before I go to bed, I listen to this album. | | 2 |  | Bring Me The Horizon
Sempiternal
This site, loves to hate on Bring Me The Horizon. In fact, most critical sites seem to
take pleasure in hating on those who indulge themselves with these guys. Honestly, I
hated everything until their third album (There Is A Hell...). And although I've recently
fallen in love with it, I instantly fell in love with Sempiternal, listening to the album in
it's entirety more than 300 times in about 7 months. They've created two albums that
have resonated with me for the past two years. Guilty pleasure or whatever you'd like
to call them, I love them. | | 1 |  | Thrice
The Artist In The Ambulance
There has never been a band that has touched me both lyrically and musically as
much as Thrice has. I have to admit, I came up in an era of over processed,
unemotional, banal music (a la Asking Alexandria) and I've even learned to tolerate
such musically trite endeavors; 10 years after it's release The Artist In The
Ambulance became an instant classic. I found it after falling madly in love with
Vheissu and The Alchemy Index. I drove a couple hours to hear them play Daedalus,
and they ended up playing some older stuff which really hit me hard. Little did I know
that the TAITA was considered the same genre as some of the trite bands of today.
Needless to say, I've grown with them enjoying every release they've put out since
First Impression, and it was difficult picking a favorite (as my favorite songs are
Daedalus and Of Dust And Nations). At the end of the day, I had to fill the space with
the one that has the most replay value in my household, The Artist In The Ambulance. | |

08.15.14 | Don Broco are pretty decent haven't listened to them in awhile actually, the one thing that has always stood out about them is the vocalist. He just has a very strong sounding voice can't think of who i could compare him to though | Artuma
08.16.14 | "listening to the album in it's entirety more than 300 times"
woah damn. 1 rules tho | Linx
09.02.14 | I LOVE Port Blue a lot and I learned to like Bring Me The Horizon. I think is a shame for people to be called a troll just because they like something hated on. I love the new "metalcore" scene (though I am NOT a scene kid!!!) I just love the electronics mixed in with the heavy music. | xiLeadFeather
02.10.17 | Never even knew people saw this list haha. If any of you are still around:
@Marked ~ Agreed on that. I think it's my favorite part of the band. Well that and their ability to combine post-hardcore/funk/pop rock and make it sound extremely listenable. It's very rare you have such a strong / masculine sounding singer in that genre these days.
@Artuma ~ I dunno, apparently I really liked it lol. It really changed my perspective on metal and helped me get into a lot of other (unrelated) bands do to their moderate experimentation. It was also extremely accessible and even my friends who hated metal wouldn't mind listening to it with me in the car lol
@Linx ~ RIGHT. I agree with everything you said haha. |
