For Johnny: How to Consume Djent

Calling me dumb bitch nice going, are you 12?
1Periphery
Periphery II: This Time It's Personal


Dont let the mob mentality cloud your judgment on whether you like djent or not, it's ok to confess that you like it *pat pat*
2Animals As Leaders
Animals as Leaders


Instrumental metal was pushed to a new audience thanks to the creation of djent, bands such as Animals as Leaders among others are beautiful specimens.
3TesseracT
Altered State


You have to not only focus on the grooves but also the atmosphere it creates, no other metal genre utilizes atmosphere as much as djent besides post metal I suppose, but I still prefer the way djent does it, I digress.
4Plini
Handmade Cities


Though some guitar players in the genre play just to be flashy, thankfully, those are few and far between, and most guitar solos you will hear in djent tracks have phenomenal guitar phrasing, some of the best heard in metal for sure.
5The Contortionist
Language


The drumming is of course super nuanced, incorporating polyrhythms into the music, adding a whole new level of dynamic feel to the groove.
6Vildhjarta
Måsstaden Under Vatten


A new style of djent created over the years known as thall adds whole new type of feel to the genre. Incorporating arguably even more atmosphere to the sound, as well as bends, pitch shifting, and a multitude of other guitar stylings that add to the already abundant djent arsenal.
7After the Burial
Dig Deep


The incorporation of extended-range guitars of course adds a lot more possibilities to metal in general, originally popularized by Korn, djent bands have taken the tones to new heights. Palm muting is the most effective way of producing the djent sound, though it's not an essential practice.
8SikTh
Death of a Dead Day


Hopefully, these steps will help you to understand djent a bit more. Though you called me a dumb bitch I am not a child so I will simply shake my head in disappointment at your immaturity, and do nothing more of the sort.
