Quoting these so I can find them at work: Zodijackylite posted:The black metal thread is for people who don't think Skeletonwitch is black metal, the -core thread is mostly about hardcore, the doom thread is basically alt rock with Orange amps, Enslaved fans think they're that special to merit their own thread, and Devin Townsend fans don't listen to any other metal.

CRIP EATIN BREAD posted:but that skeletonwitch logo is pointy as gently caress so its thrash This is probably the best point made so far. 90% of subgenre distinctions can be made simply through logo analysis. Also seconding the power metal thread, all you losers need somewhere to talk about Nightwish and Jag Panzer or whatever in peace. No clean singing, 666 and hails etc. I've been listening to this band Ghost Bath a lot over the last few days. They're from North Dakota but got away with pretending to be from China for years through a cunning strategy of never doing interviews or giving out pictures of themselves. They're "post" black metal, which if I remember correctly is red meat for thread hate but I'm sure some of you will like it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wnz7lcei1IA

I caught some grief from the girl at the Behemoth merch table for wearing even more un-metal attire (not metallica) to the same show/tour. I think she was either A) jelaous of my taste in excellent music/clothing. or B) looking to score some penis other than the slew of dudes she had been touring with for the last 5+ weeks. Either way, taunting someone for the choice in clothing is just so 7th grade.

Speaking of power metal, I've read some rather high praise for the upcoming Kamelot album, and from people who, like me, haven't been impressed with the band's latest offerings. Of course, I'm taking it with a large grain of salt, but I'm carefully optimistic. Would be really nice if the band managed to make another album on the level of Karma, or at least The Black Halo. It's not due until May, though.

I've been listening to the new Europe album daily for about two weeks now, and it just loving boggles the mind how good it is. Like, I thought the new Audrey Horne from last year was good hard rock, but jesus christ this album blows even that out of the water. This is seriously some incredible Deep Purple/early Rainbow worship. Literally every single track is some degree of excellent. I mean, just https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPQZjT8Oa5w gently caress

Yeah, good metalcore knows when to place its breakdowns too. It's not like the genre consists entirely of musical incompetents who can't write songs.

I guess, maybe I am missing something but the only band from that genre I enjoy are Between the Buried and Me, though they are more progressive in their sound.

I saw that Insomnium and Omnium Gatherum are touring together and thought that was pretty funny. Like, sometimes I forget they're separate bands. Couldn't tell you which one I was listening to if you tossed them in a playlist. Insomnium Gatherum.

As you'd expect there's a lot of variance in "pure metalcore", from the early stuff like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJnNmVj9wZo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-H_jomo69U To mathcore and prog metalcore https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FczCbk3zRn4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3nRwiQZil8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQDrWKF5fY4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_PDow7KCoA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EXVbyNWjMw

a lot of those suggestions for metalcore stuff seem like cool songs and all, like that Unearth song^ but most of them make me feel nothing  I usually also can't stand the vocals from most core bands, but I try not to let that affect my judgment on the musicOptimum Gulps posted:I don't know if this counts as metalcore (more like math metal + Envy-style screamo/post-hardcore) but it's one of the best one-two punch of album openers I've ever heard.
