Battle Of The Genres - Part 9

BATTLE OF THE GENRES - PART NINE /// Streetlight Manifesto, despite being added late to the competition, managed to win by a staggering 20 votes over Sublime and Operation Ivy. They move on to the next round, as will one of the bands below... /// DESC RIPTION - Vote for a band that you would like to represent each genre. There are eighteen genres in total, which means eighteen preliminary rounds. Then the representatives from each genre will face off. Which genre/band will win? /// RULES - One vote per member per day (each round lasts 24 hours) - In the event of a tie, a faceoff will occur between the disputed bands - Let's get started
1METALCORE
2Converge

Highest-rated album: Jane Doe (4.4 avg. rating) /// "Incredibly prolific punk-metal road dogs Converge were formed in 1990 and after several singles and the requisite growing pains, released their first full-length, Halo in a Haystack, in 1994. By the release of their fourth full-length, Jane Doe in 2000, Converge were regarded as one of the most original and innovative bands to emerge from the punk underground."
3Between The Buried And Me

Highest-rated album: Colors (4.2 avg. rating) /// "Between The Buried and Me gained respect in both Hardcore/Metalcore crowds and in the Metal scene with their self titled debut LP. The group are from North Carolina and signed to Victory Records, home to many popular hardcore acts. Between The Buried and Me have an extremely unique sound with the melding of styles that they use. But not only do they meld these styles well, they have mastered every single style that they incorporate into their sound."
4The Dillinger Escape Plan

Highest-rated album: Option Paralysis (4.2 avg. rating) /// "The Dillinger Escape Plan is a experimental mathcore band that integrates metal, hardcore, free jazz, varying time signatures, and electronic samples. They are known for the intensity and too close for comfort violence of their live shows, which have been known to feature stage-diving and fire-breathing. The band is rumored to choose their music's time signatures with the aid of dice, or with the use of some kind of code, but this is purely speculation. What isn't speculation is their technical prowess."
