some of my buddies from way back in the day who were in a local band decided to pick things back up and make a new ep and are playing a few shows again for the first time in idk like 15 years or something. they just dropped a video and it's great to see them back at it. some of you here might dig it

Knocked Loose, Show Me The Body, Loathe, and Speed are touring

saw that announcement and just my luck, the day they're playing in LA is the day after jesus piece and sanguisugabogg play in NYC which i'm flying to to see that show with friends. ah well, i've seen speed three times already and idc about knocked loose really. i've never seen loathe which would be fun but whatever.

overall a pretty stacked show that everyone should check out if they can. i think show me the body is overhyped, though.

i had tickets to see veil of maya play last night and i didn't bother going. didn't help that they were the only band on the lineup i cared about, and they're touring off their most recent album which i listened to in its totality maybe one single time.

checking setlist.fm helps to either make or break how bummed i am about missing a show. looks like they played mostly songs off the new album, but i am bummed it seems like they played "it's not safe to swim today" which is a banger, plus some older jams in the back half of the set. ahhh well i'll catch them on the next djent tour or whatever lol

So, I really enjoy Converge, early tDEP, Botch, Starkweather, Drowningman, Deadguy, All else failed, mostly stuff from late 90s - early 2000s. I'm looking for stuff that I've missed there and hopefully contemporary bands that can measure up.

At the gates-core and Meshuggah-core give me nothing but headache.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Shooga.

I'm listening to Deadguy's Fixation on a coworker and it owns so hard still almost 30 years later, aged like whiskey.

i assume anyone who knows what something awful is and knows how to find their way to this thread knows about norma jean but hey you didn't post them specifically and they basically ripped off botch so i figured it was worth a shot.

glad you like some of the recs, i'm up for the challenge to dive into my depth of knowledge about obscure metalcore bands. i listened to a few songs on the deadguy album you posted and i have more recs

yeah i meant vamachara is the only active band from that last batch. callous daoboys are great but i feel like they're shifting away from the sound that i fell in love with on their die on mars album into more singy experimental stuff that i don't vibe with.

speaking of daoboys, old dillinger, and deadguy - they're all playing together in brooklyn in june which i have a ticket for. stoked to see dillinger play calculating infinity aka their only good album :smug:

Don't know if we're allowed to self promote here, but here goes.

i can't imagine anyone being upset about self promotion in one of the most niche/least active threads in the music forum as long as its relevant

i watched your live videos and scrounged around to find your instagram and other available music. i think you'd be hard pressed to get a lot of actual feedback from people based on what's only available to listen to from live/rehearsal recordings. your music style seems like a blend of some [genre]-core elements with some stuff like tool and/or deftones, etc thrown in the mix. on one hand, you could say it's eclectic, on the other hand you could say it's unfocused and confused. it's hard to say based on the recordings and material available, though.

keep at it, keep practicing, record something in an actual studio or with decent equipment where someone can mix/master it, and then you'll have a much better idea of where you guys are as a band and how people respond to it.

i commend you for posting here and opening yourself up for feedback, hope you found what i had to say at least somewhat worthwhile.

surprise announcement of knocked loose playing at a record store in the valley here in LA. tickets went on sale yesterday at noon and i was able to snag 2 tickets for me and a homie. the comments on the instagram post are flooded with people who said they refreshed the page right at noon and it was already telling them it was sold out. i got lucky.

i also don't even really give a poo poo about them but i think it'll be sick to see them play a tiny venue. i'm mostly stoked to see beyond repair play old throwdown songs.

here's the music video if you have no idea who poppy is and want a visual to go along with the music


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAuuVY__KQ0

here's a few more from poppy who is fine/decent as a solo pop/metal type artist who does some pretty interesting things in her weird little corner of the metal genre. it's kinda cringe nu metal stuff but it's actually not half bad just bc it leans into itself so hard. she's signed to sumerian, believe it or not. same label as slaughter to prevail, btbam, born of osiris, and veil of maya.

wamsutta, you mentioned something about people's music tastes being solidified or set in stone around the time of adolescence, and that might be true for most people, but on any given day i barely ever listen to anything older than a few months out. my favorite album from 2022 is something i probably haven't listened to since december of that year if not longer ago than that. new music comes out all the time and i basically need a direct injection as often as possible.

we're not that far apart in age btw, you said you're 42, i turn 40 in a month.

enjoy your youth while it lasts, whippersnappers!

also, i highly recommend checking out the straight up metal thread on fridays. Nazzadan does the dark lord's work every single week updating the thread with about a dozen and a half bandcamp links of all different kinds of metal, even core stuff, which that thread is usually somewhat repellent to. if you like core, there's a high chance you'll like some dm or thrash or crossover or the best genre ever: slam

even if nothing is your cup of tea, it opens you up to just random new poo poo and gives you a little taste of what's out there

as for music taste changing as you age and stuff, in the last ~5 years, i def started broadening my horizons. i like synthwave, i like some neofunk, and in just the last like two years i started listening to more ambient stuff which def makes me feel like i'm hitting mid-life crisis levels of art appreciation.

but then just last week i found out about this band mask who are loving sick and reminds me while i'll never stop loving idiot breakdown music

Erra playing Dementia on this tour is a big surprise. They said they wouldn’t be playing older stuff anymore after their last headliner.

as far as i'm concerned erra is the band that made the first two albums and the moments of clarity ep. once they got the new singer they became something else. it's dope to see them play some old old songs, but wouldn't be enough to get me to wanna go see them live

i was a bit lukewarm on them at first but they really grew on me. i saw foreign hands last weekend at one of the tiniest venues i've been to in such a long time - it was fantastic! they opened with their two newest songs and played another new one (the one that dropped today, i think) and it all sounded great, so i'm on board all the way.
