Hi everyone
I've been listening to deathcore for decades now and I feel like finding new bands for a change.
I'm looking for bands with big breakdowns that go real hard, and also who incorporates big, crazy, shredding solos into their music.
Any suggestions?
Thanks and have a good day.
Love this song so fucking much, this record from The Acacia Strain is among the top 5 from 2025 I'd say!
Someone mentioned doing the drums live would be difficult but regardless, it would be a good time. Keen on new material.
Need some more not so serious bands! Stuff that’s heavy for the sake of being heavy and kinda sounds terrible, but in a fun way
I wish they would leave it alone. Hate malice revenge is top tier but when Eddie joined it became another band for better or for worse. Now there's this 20 year tour for the price of mid album. Feels last ditch and cash grabby with suicide silence never being good post mitch and all this shit about minors coming out.
Any other examples of shit that needs to be left alone yall want to complain about?
Personally, I’ve liked them since the beginning, but even though their latest album is probably their strongest from a songwriting perspective, I still can’t get into the actual sound of it.
At first, I thought they were just bad at mixing, but at this point I guess it’s simply the sound they’re aiming for.
To me, the guitars barely sound like guitars anymore, more like heavily distorted synths. And the drums sound so processed and electronic that it almost feels closer to weird dubstep than metal at times.
That’s just my opinion though. What do you think?
Video for attention but obviously there are more types of mosh parts than this. Curious what everyone likes the most. Personally I like when the body of the song has a lot of two steps and the bouncy toe touch parts with fast tempo and mid tempo breakdowns- don’t care much for circle pit parts, side to side parts, and definitely not down tempo breakdowns(they never hit live, even tho people online seem to like them a lot).
Gang vocals and pileup parts are also tons of fun, sometimes if it’s done right the dead space can be really cool and effective too.
As long as there aren’t too many blast beat riff salad parts or psuedo-breakdowns in the song it’s usually really fun live
But yeah, what’s your favorite type of mosh part?
I've been listening to a rather extreme side of metal, especially lyrically, and naturally I've became extremely desensitized to all the gory, bloody, brutal lyrics. Or so I've thought until I really read all of the Whitechapel texts and FUCKING HELL, half the songs make my skin crawl whenever I listen to them.
Idk what's the main reason for this - Phil's amazing vocals, his ©️low gutturals, insanely good instrumentals, some fucking BRUTAL topics (like killing/sacrificing a newborn in Nothing Is Coming For Any Of Us, this one makes me choke when I imagine all the scenes) or all of those combined, but specifically Whitechapel songs gross me out extremely.
And again, I've listened to hella lot of bloody and gory songs, but for some reason neither of them come even close.
I feel like I barely hear vocalists doing some banshee screams in their songs these days. The only people that come to mind in recent memory are Rheese Peeters (Babirusa, ex-A Night In Texas), Ethan Lucas (ex-A Night In Texas), Ian & Casey (Angelmaker, not sure if they both do highs), Dane Evans (To The Grave, especially on Epilogue), Dan Watson (Mire Lore, ex-Infant Annihilator/Enterprise Earth) and you can argue Larcenia Roe and Orphan's vocalist at times. You also have the older stuff like the Infinite Death EP and Neverbloom. I mean more the high pitched stuff, not necessarily the goblin vocals like Infant Annihilator and Lorna Shore.
What are some bands out there right now with vocalists that sound like they're being lit on fire?
I was re watching the podcast the other day and it makes sense why it’s taking so long, I think they’ve realized if it’s can’t surpass Manifesto 1.0, it’s not releasing.
I think the next album will be a big one, more songs than Porcelain
Now of course, I’m exhausted from fucking waiting almost three years and I’m sure everyone else is, but I do believe it’ll be a very special moment
Hey party people. We, Pyre from Berlin, dropped another song :) were mixing hardcore / beatdown with deathmetal elements. And we would love to get some honest feedback for our new song! So no hard feelings if u dont like it! But tell us what would make u like it ;D
Pyre - Conquer (Spotify link, available on every other streaming service tho)
Personally TUTBH is such a well made album, the call back to Dissentient with Citadel II is truly a chefs kiss 🤌 Rich in Anguish is just a masterpiece of a song 10/10. The “Nightmare Nightmare” in The Silence will always make me laugh because of where that came from, iykyk. I had to really listen to Haunter but it eventually grew on me. Honestly boys, in my opinion Angelmaker deserves more love than they get, especially live
I know ticket sales and trades are not permitted, but I would like to give away my 2 tickets to this tour tonight if anyone is interested. Just pay it forward and enjoy the show. I just don't have the bandwidth to make it (too much driving this week already) and kind of had to choose between this or BTBAM Friday since I have tickets for both. Whoever DMs me first with their email I will send them your way. Thanks! \m/
