| Rec Me Djent with Clean Vocals
Been really digging some Djent lately. Looking for some recs for bands/albums with strong djent tones and clean/melodic vocals, similar to the bands/albums and/or songs below. | 1 |  | Tool 10,000 Days
First came across djent (or a hybrid of it) with Tool's song "Jambi", back in the mid 2000's. That is one of my favorite Tool tracks of all time and definitely my fav off of 10,000 Days. | 2 |  | TesseracT Altered State
Kinda fell into this album...and loved everything about it (minus the saxaphones). The djent and ambient tones on this album, as well as Ashe O'Hara's vocals, make this album paramount. | 3 |  | TesseracT One
Quickly purchased this album as well. As great as Altered State, but Daniel Tompkins brings a totally different vibe with a mix of clean and harsh vocals. | 4 |  | Animals As Leaders The Joy of Motion
Picked this up from a used CD store on a whim. Not my favorite instrumental metal band, but I certainly dig their employment of djent. | 5 |  | Voices from the Fuselage To Hope
Was quite bummed when Ashe O'Hara left Tesseract. But Voices from the Fuselage is a good fit for his vocals. Dig this early EP. | 6 |  | Skyharbor Blinding White Noise: Illusion & Chaos
This may be my second favorite Daniel Tompkins album. The clean vocals on the Illusion CD are incredible, and the Chaos CD closes on a strong note. | 7 |  | Intervals The Space Between
Some great instrumental djent and progressive metal | 8 |  | Twelve Foot Ninja Outlier
The initial track, "One Hand Killing", presents some strong djent overtones. Also can't beat the vocal styling of this band. | 9 |  | Monuments The Amanuensis
Recently purchased this at McKays. I really dig this band and their use of strong djent tones. The vocals, when clean, are absolute amazing. The harsh vocals tend to become a bit too death metal for me, towards the end. But I still dig this album a lot. | |
Relinquished
08.07.19 | Textures has some good uses of cleans, mainly on Awake, Upwards, and Reaching Home | Get Low
08.07.19 | Check Novelists, bro. | DarkSideOfLucca
08.07.19 | Bro, Vola | JDubb
08.07.19 | So far have dug what I've listened to by Textures and Novelists tonight. Appreciate the great recs Relinquished and Get Low. Will check out Vola next. | Meridiu5
08.07.19 | Opeth | po0ty
08.07.19 | Uneven Structure
Time, The Valuator
though they are pretty much straight progmetal at this point The Contortionist are great as well | GhostB1rd
08.07.19 | Periphery - S/T
Corelia - Nostalgia
Napoleon - Newborn Mind | TheMightyScoop
08.07.19 | no other djent band even comes close to car bomb | Uzumaki
08.07.19 | Check Destiny Potato. | SitarHero
08.07.19 | Destiny Potato [2]
Shattered Skies
Issues | beefshoes
08.07.19 | I second Uneven Structure for Februs alone.
Such a beast of an album. Otherwise, check out SikTh if you haven't already. | Get Low
08.07.19 | A lot of good recs in here. | kalkwiese
08.07.19 | "Otherwise, check out SikTh if you haven't already"
SikTh for cleans? I mean they rule, but SikTh is some weird shit. | BlazinBlitzer
08.07.19 | Earthside's "A Dream in Static" is djenty with mostly clean features on vocals. | thedoom
08.07.19 | Vola‘s Inmazes and Monsters are very djenty and have mostly clean vocals. | beefshoes
08.07.19 | Yeah, but they also have some incredible clean vocals when they are there (Part of the Fiction for example) | kalkwiese
08.07.19 | Oh, I need to go on a SikTh binge in the near future for sure. Part of The Friction is so incredibly good | polygonfiction
08.07.19 | Check out Spiritbox. They're probably a bit different than what you're looking for, but I'm sure you'll like them regardless. Start with their "Singles Collection". | kalkwiese
08.07.19 | I'd start with their self titled ep tbh. They're doing the Altered State thing better than Altered State imo | tyman128
08.07.19 | Earthside [2] | SitarHero
08.07.19 | Wings Denied is pretty good too. | JDubb
08.07.19 | Making my way through the great recs. So far, my favorite is Time, the Valuator. | SitarHero
08.07.19 | If you like the more poppy side of djent, then you'll probably enjoy Issues too.
Also, In Motive was a short lived project that put out only two songs, but they're pretty good. | SitarHero
08.07.19 | Oh...and Disperse's second and third albums. | Beardog
08.07.19 | Earthside [3], you can also try Evergrey, Tremonti (not really Djent, but heavy music without screaming), Deftones, Wolves at the Gate, Wovenwar's first album, Disperse, Pentakill and Myrath. That's what I got for you bro | JDubb
08.08.19 | SitarHero, Wings Denied is a good call. Also, thanks for those two songs by In Motive. In return, check out the two released songs by Tranzhumanist - On Impact and Imperial. | SitarHero
08.08.19 | Will check! | Artuma
