Did you ever have a metalcore phase?
>>60962448
Of course. Thankfully it was mercifully short and I discovered hardcore/real metalcore real soon.
I'm about to make a metalcore band because we can't find a singer and I'm a lazy guitarist.
>>60962448
God thanks no, my parents always said I skipped my rebellious teen phase
>>60962448
White Chapel is actually pretty good
Never grew out of it.
>>60962467
This. I remember in jr. high I was into it for a month, but then I discovered hardcore and blackmetal
>>60962467
>>60962510
What exactly is "hardcore"?
Growing up, I called pretty much anything with screaming and breakdowns hardcore. Now I picture stuff more on part with The Greenery and Trash Talk when people say hardcore.
>>60962448
No, thank fuck
>>60962448
>no hardcore/nu metal phase
feels good man
feels bad that i had the thrash phase instead, i was essentially the slayer fan stereotype
>>60962448
nah, it was a nu metal phase
no. although im having a emo phase right now, dont know how i feel about that
I liked Converge, Dillinger Escape Plan and Rollo Tomassi around two years ago, idk all those guys are alright, never liked the shitty mainstream metalcore bands though
>>60962448
i used to listen to bring me the horizon, august burns red and iwrestledabearonce when i was like 16. i was really picky about metal core though, i couldn't stand anything with clean vocals (iwabo being an exception though, i'm still a fan of krysta cameron)
>>60962612
iwrestledabearonce just put out an album this year. They pretty much dropped all the goofy stuff and went full on deathcore.
metalcore is fucking tasteless
>>60962531
Hardcore punk. That could be Black Flag, or Converge, or Husker Du.
>>60962980
Still sounds like it's a pretty loosely defined genre.
Not really. I liked Converge and Botch at one point. Still do actually. The only scene metalcore band I ever really liked were Killswitch Engage if you even count them.
never grew out of it. veil of maya still slaps
good metalcore general?
i only ever liked killswitch engage in pure metalcore
>>60962448
The only good of that gender is whitechapel
>>60963136
I forgot most people on /mu/ only listen to whatever is currently being passed around their college campus.
>>60962531
Really, really wide genre,
in simplest terms yeah it's just hardcore punk, so punk music that is heavier/faster/'harder'.
This means that genres which can also fall under the term 'hardcore' can be as far-flung as youth crew, d-beat, powerviolence, certain emo, screamo, and multitudes of other subgenres.
You start getting into the distinctions between metallic hardcore, punkier hardcore, left-of-field hardcore, metalcore which is actually hardcore,
and so on and so forth.
It's all confusing and there's no real consensus.
But yes Trash Talk are a hardcore band, and I think some of their early stuff is also regarded as powerviolence.
>>60963136
Let's.
>>60963218
And even then they'll eat other and call each other "plebs" and don't explore any musical genres unless it's /mu/ approved.
>>60963218
>>60963278
it wasn't always this bad pre-2010
I miss all the spazzy bands that didn't take themselves seriously.
>>60963333
One of the best shows I went to, and I was mostly there for TAS because I was an edgy motherfucker.
>>60963359
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gqy4bEJjyoU
>>60963359
check out >>60963136
Yeah, but for like a week. Thankfully this kid that sat next to me in class showed me hardcore.
>>60963333
I've heard of the time when Colors was /mu/core and stuff like that. There was also a time where Deafheaven was widely accepted. Wish I could have been there.
yup, early 2000's. Poison the Well, From Autumn to Ashes, Skycamefalling, Hopesfall. Those were the more melodic bands I liked. PTW are still great too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqfdN7SucMY
I really liked a lot of the bands that came from Christian labels, even if it was all an act.
>>60963414
I actually saw them at the Roxy a couple years ago. Way too many tracks and triggers live.
best deathcore album right here
I wouldn't say phase more than just me liking the genre a lot. Some shitty bands like in every genre but there is great metalcore
>>60963136
This was AOTY last year it's so good
>>60963573
Any album cover that was just a poorly done greenscreen never worked and they never grew out of it.
>>60962448
>these bands
Is that you core spammer?
>>60962448
The Red Chord and After the Burial are the only decent deathcore bands
>>60963566
They're going more prog now, which I'm happy about. Other Slices was still really good, all things considered.
>>60962488
>>60963174
Whitechapel is fucking trash
>>60963707
Red Chord, after the burial is shit. what an uninformed opinion
>>60963756
Red chord is good*
>>60963136
>>60963278
This band was way better than Between the Buried and Me
>>60962448
I guess I'm still in that phase, but it's never been the sole genre I listen to.
>>60963750
Nope
>>60962448
Yeah i did and it was fun enough. My metalhead days were rather quick, and i started listening to metalcore bands. Still listen from time to time, still enjoy some bands i guess
>>60962448
I always thought it was a really boring and tasteless genre of "metal". Of course I enjoyed a few songs from Parkway Drive, but no more than that. Metalcore and all those wannabe Meshuggah djent bands are truly bringing shame upon the whole genre of metal. It's almost like people are expecting to hear Asking Alexandria when you mention metal.
>>60962448
I have always hated it but I'm starting to tolerate some bands now
It would however be really hilarious if scenecore appreciation was the next step after poptimism
>>60963805
>>60963750
Whitechapel are pretty good but their lyrics are fucking cringe tier
>>60963786
Yeah it's a real shame they're all but broken up now, Digital Veil was fucking great
>>60963786
I like The Human Abstract, sure, but don't open up with how a band you like is better than a band someone else likes (it's okay to like both. Mindblowing, isn't it?)
>>60963846
>Whitechapel are pretty good but their lyrics are fucking cringe tier
I mean, they're a deathcore band, dude. Deathcore has always been about 2edgy4u lyrics and br00tal chugs
not yet. progcore/mathcore seems pretty cool iah but im not as interested in noodling these days
>>60963820
get over it autist
I loved August Burns Red. I still kinda do. But I never liked the emo shit that most metalcore is. I didn't like metalcore made for teenage girls like Bring Me The Horizon.
>>60963908
Scenecore and Emocore bands have some fucking bangers, though.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWggPLXeOkU
>>60963943
Lel, I don't remember this song but the dislike button was already clicked when I opened it
>>60963868
I usually don't care at all about lyrics but their's are especially bad. I mean just listen to Let Me Burn
>>60962448
i had a numetal phase [spoiler]in 2011[/spoiler]
>>60963832
Nah just good post hardcore / metalcore bands get lumped in with the gay scene stuff, but some scene stuff can be alright, I unironically like I see stars
Yes. I still listen to some of them but I was a huge faggot.
>>60963908
How did ABR even get grouped in with scenecore bands? Their music is a lot more technical and interesting than shit like bring me the horizon
>>60963999
I thought New Demons was a step in the right direction.
This thread really needs dmshareguy
>>60964016
The same way The Human Abstract or BtBaM get lumped with generic metalcore. Shit happens.
Guiltiest of guilty pleasures right here.
>>60964036
no, he'll turn it into a dir en grey weebshit thread
Thoughts on iwrestledabearonce? #scenegrind
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHTuv4g8154
>>60964054
Emmure is heavy as shit
Never, thankfully.
I cringe at how some of my friends still proudly listen to this shitty metalcore bands, despite being in their 20s
>>60964069
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OsOzrApkvA
Fuck yes.
I like some metalcore but I feel like a lot of deathcore bands sound and look the same.
This band is pretty good, shame they turned into greedy cunts
>>60964088
Heavy doesn't equal good.
>>60964067
Dir en grey is a good band, idiot
>>60964054
that's up there, but I think mine's worse
>>60964027
it was good, wasn't a fan of the dubstep shit but there was really good tracks on it like ten thousand feet
>>60964069
Hail Mary is better than anything they've ever done with krista
I never got into shitty scene metalcore. I thought all metalcore was shit for a long time though. I got into Starkweather and Integrity in the late 2000's and that majorly changed my opinion.
Someone who knows any bluesy hardcore punk, bluesy metalcore or bluesy post-hardcore band?
>>60964106
Pierce the Veil makes some pretty good music. Their Collide with the Sky album has some neat instrumentals.
>>60964016
Because they get labelled as metalcore which automatically puts them in that group, though if I remember right they don't see themselves as metalcore. Or maybe they labelled themselves as melodic metalcore, I can't remember, something like that anyway.
>>60964092
>dat country part
>>60962574
me too anon
> tfw I still think korn's debut album is one of the best
>>60964101
By trying to support themselves without the help of a label? You mean bands actually try to make a living? You mean those bands that suddenly do automatically become "greedy cunts" because you take their music and content for granted?
On that note, Protest the Hero wasn't ever metalcore (maybe Kezia).
>>60964101
Triggered. how are they greedy cunt? they made all the accounting from their kickstarter public, and it's not like any of them are living large
>>60964088
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rkqBhO_x8I
Still the heaviest song I've heard that isn't just mindless open string plucking
>>60964155
Goofy hardcore bands will always have a really special place in my heart
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2gGGIRm_Io
a day to remember is beyond pathetic
>>60964161
Glad someone else on here sees it like I do.
>>60963893
Yes, I got over metalcore a long time ago and you should too.
>>60964199
95% of the bands mentioned in this thread are pathetic.
>>60964107
I like Hail Mary a lot, but the change in image is really disappointing. The lyrics take themselves too seriously, too.
>>60964238
They've never made a serious album before and in my opinion it worked espically with Courtney. I mean they can't just do the same goofy shit every album
http://youtube.com/watch?v=45fvwFunaKE
>>60962448
Nah. I liked Job for a cowboy and Slipknot for some time but all my friends were trve kvlt fuckers that got me into metal fast.
Favorite bands included Kreator, Immortal, Death and some hardcore punk.
>>60964316
Never cared for Job For A Cowboy, but Sun Eater was phenomenal.
>>60964124
The Chariot has a really western sound. Not sure if that's what you mean by bluesy.
>>60964338
Neither did I after I found out what Death Metal was.
But i agree that last album was a huge advance for them.
>>60964289
I watched this music video yesterday and couldn't stand it.
Tracks 2 and 3 are the best so far on Hail Mary.
I was the Christcore kid for a while. I listened to The Devil Wears Prada, Attack Attack, blessthefall, Demon Hunter, As I Lay Dying, etc. Nowadays I really only listen to The Dillinger Escape Plan and the occasional Cave In. I'm more of a sludge metal guy now
Also, has anyone watched any of Jarrod Alonge's videos? He has some pretty funny shit that basically makes fun of all the shit I used to listen to
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiVDUDdtvY8&ab_channel=JarrodAlonge
>>60963136
I only like early metalcore other than a few acts
https://uhgahwugah.bandcamp.com/album/uhgah-wugah-ep
This is a local band, doesnt really count as Hardcore but there's an influence there. Sounds like Primus and RHCP meets bits of hardcore and blues
>>60964405
If you listened to so much Christcore and is was mostly those bands then you missed out:
Plea For Purging
Sleeping Giant
Advent
Chariot
Hands
The Gun Show
In the Midst of Lions
Impending Doom
and like 10 more top tier Christfag shit.
>>60964405
>Attack Attack
Honestly pic related is one of the best metalcore albums, such a punishing album to listen to and if you like Beartooth you'll love this. Honestly can't believe they made this when their first album is so... Well it didn't age very good
>>60964476
I've listened to Chariot before and they were pretty cool. I was a pretty basic Christcore kid though.
>>60964529
I kind of stopped listening to Attack Attack before they released that album. And Beartooth is kinda cool but I feel like metalcore has kind of done all it can do by now
Yup.
I listened to
Asking Alexandria
A Day to Remember ( I know they don't count)
Suicide Silence
Woe Is Me
Attack Attack
August Burns Red
Abandon All Ships
Chunk! No Captain Chunk!
Blessthefall
Bring Me The Horizon
Of Mice & Men
All That Remains
I See Stars
For All Those Sleeping
I could go on
>>60964857
Disgusting
Nope
I'm too old.
>>60964857
>>60965251
Pretty bad, even for mid-2000's metalcore.
>>60965251
I know
I listened to 2 songs by bullet from my valentine when I was 13 to be honest.
>>60965284
How old?
The only two death core bands that I can't stand are Attila and Emmure
>>60965615
Apparently whatever age group of people who think 4chan is a forum where you have to have a username.
>>60965635
kek
>>60964405
>>60964476
Well shit am I the only one who's heard of The Crimson Armada
>>60965693
I saw them at a festival once. But I was a Christfag back then and when they put out a music video of them partying with a bunch of bikini babes I decided I didn't want to get into them.
>>60964354
No i mean something more like this
http://odysseytheband.bandcamp.com/album/wild-is-tue-civilisation-lies
bluesy might be the wrong word. I want hardcore with more melody with feeling, not just random notes produced to sound heavy and cool.
>>60962471
not sure thats a good thing, my little brother and all his friends seemed to have skipped it too
white people are too boring to even try to pretend theyre rebelling against that now
Best deathcore album of all time
Too bad they suck now
>>60962448
ive been 5 years into all time of metal, i started diging deathcore at 16 and i still like a bunch of bands, now im getting a little into the more technical of it, lile RoS and BoO, still have a lot to discover
>>60967476
what are other Veil of Maya good albums? their first ones?
>>60967637
That one and [id] are the best. They started going downhill on Eclipse when Misha from Periphery started producing them
