XIII posted:I meant to say something about this album a couple days ago. It's solid as gently caress, as is every Hellions release, but I can't help but feel like all of their tunes just sound too much alike. I dunno, I could see that to an extent with Indian Summer, but I don't get that at all on Opera Oblivia. Every track is an absolute banger in its own way and the album's all over the place stylistically. Like, Bad Way (the last track I posted) sounds like The Mars Volta or RHCP made a hardcore track, where this is closer to La Dispute or Defeater brand melodic hardcore: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVOK-Oml86g ...and this is basically a mid-2000s alt-rock/emo track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_okH6fSVPE ...and the lead single is all over the place on its own, with traditional hardcore verses leading into that massive chorus and the perfect interlude toward the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chRQtf6fxoQ gently caress, I love this album. I could make a case for every track being the best. That huge singalong on 24, that post-chorus breakdown in Nightliner Rhapsody, the whole album is pretty much perfect.

ICHIBAHN posted:Seen them live a few times, always blew me away. The guy who said their tour and album cycles were like hristmas had it dead on. I was gearing up, getting into their albums again in anticipation of the new stuff when I read they're splitting. Gutted. I'm also gutted I'll not get to see them again, until their innevitable reunion. The new song is unreal, hopefully the album is just as good. Now I have a gap to fill, who sounds most like DEP? I've got a list here including Meshuggah, Coalesce, Botch, Norma Jean, Converge, Rolo Tomassi... none of them quite reach DEP's levels. Is there anyone out there? I haven't been 100% sold on every Dillinger album, but honestly they're so uniquely DEP that I've never heard anyone that even comes close to matching their sound. There are plenty of bands who are influenced by them but none that manage their style. I think it's that they have such a huge range of influences that nobody really tries to lift their sound wholesale because it would be such a blatant ripoff. Instead we get [prog core band x] taking Dillinger's quirky Mr. Bungle influences and running with them, while [mathcore band y] takes the polyrhythmic chaos and [technical hardcore band z] takes the destructive breakdowns and live show insanity. All three of them have clear Dillinger influences in one form or another, but none of them really sound like Dillinger. Related, goddamn Option Paralysis was a good album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sl3PlpadymI

xZAOx posted:Nah, not just you. I don't mind listening to the "how can we fill time until the next breakdown" bands, but it's not stuff I'll pay for, if that makes sense. Agreed. I can generally deal with a breakdown-factory deathcore song here or there if they show up in shuffle or are playing at a friend's house, but it's nothing I would go out of my way to listen to. Even TAS bores me after a few tracks.

tbh if you don't spend every weekend blasting tough guy hardcore at the gym and crowdkilling treadmill pussies you shouldn't even listen to anything with harsh vocals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2elrTBacYGo Also I'm trying to remember a band from 2006-or-07-ish and coming up completely blank. I don't even remember much about them really but the album popped into my head a few days ago and it's been driving me crazy, they were a smaller band, I wanna say it was a "The _____" name and the second word started with a C, or an O? And they played a semi-progressive but fairly straightforward style of -core that was popular at the time, a lot of clean & harsh vocal switching and I think a bit of ETID-style southern rock riffs. No idea if they had more than one album. I think the cover was largely blue with maybe a picture of the earth or something? Kind of a long shot and I could be wrong on most of the details even, but hey it's worth a shot because few things in life are more important than mediocre metalcore music from a decade ago.

Nope and nope, although I hadn't heard The Ocean and they're pretty cool so thanks for that. The band I'm thinking of was a lot more straightforward and stupid scene bullshitty, bright colors and trendy style, melodeath-inspired riffs and whatnot. The progressive influences were very minor and mainly in relation to song structures not being completely verse/chorus/repeat.

Eight Is Legend posted:Exactly how I feel about them. Also they seem like solid dudes based on the crowd they hang out with it. They also come across really well on Facebook - they seem genuinely excited about the whole music scene, and they frequently post about any new music coming out that they like. MYOH and Rising Sun are genuinely great and earned them a lot of goodwill with me, and I've enjoyed all of their newer albums to varying extents. Only Death Is Real is great in a few places and dumb fun in most others. The track with Keith Buckley rules, of course. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDu3qECc91Y

kumba posted:Yeah imo the vocals in that are absolutely awful, top tier radio metalcore is like being the king of diarrhea Eh I got into heavy music with Atreyu and Killswitch Engage (and old 36CF actually) so I have a soft spot for buttrock/metalcore lite garbage. I maintain that Brock's vocals are great and unique in an "I want to blow Daryl Palumbo" kind of way, and dudes write immensely fun and catchy music. Basically, praise unto Brock Lindow, God Emperor of All Diarrheacore https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLkm-Bpkgv4 They haven't really been a -core band since like 2005 but the new TBDM is good. Basically the exact same thing they've been doing for 10 years but with better and more memorable songwriting. It's made me go back through their discography again at least; I usually listen to each album as it's released, think "yep that's real good," then forget everything I just heard. Can confirm: everything between Nocturnal and Nightbringers is good and I don't care if I ever hear it again. Will be jamming Nightbringers for awhile though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voxtdphvP5k SchwarzeKrieg fucked around with this message at 01:19 on Oct 14, 2017 |

Probably not a popular opinion in the metalcore thread, but: I don't get the Parkway Drive thing because I've always thought their -core aspects were the weakest part of their music and that they would be an absolute AAA metal band if they dropped the breakdowns and focused on riffs and songwriting. Instead they dropped the riffs AND the breakdowns and decided to make mediocre buttrock.

New Bleeding Through is great, best of their career honestly. Between that, Eighteen Visions last year, and The Agony Scene coming up soon, I'm loving that all these mid 2000s core bands are getting back together and putting out even better material than they were during their heyday. In AOTY news, Jason Butler (letlive. frontman) has a new hardcore band called Pressure Cracks. They just dropped an EP and it loving rips. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzwCipj42FE
