There's a new ETID coming?! Oh I am so glad I saw this thread. I loving love ETID, The Big Dirty is one of my favorite albums (as is Hot drat! Gutter Phenomenon and Last Night In town are good too) Also, I just got around to listening to the new It Dies Today, Lividity. I REALLY like it. I loved the gently caress out of The Caitiff choir in 04, and then got into their 3-track demo (lost during a harddrive malfunction, FML) and their 6-track EP (purchased original at a show). Sirens was god awful. Lividity has a ton of heavy riffing and vocals and reminds me a lot of The Caitiff Choir.

-Atom- posted:I've only listened to Lividity once, and it was difficult to get through. I was incredibly excited when they did a teaser for Thank You for Drinking but after one spin of the album I was left wondering why nothing resonated with me. Although the skit at the end of the last track was good and I still listen to it about once a week. Forever Scored (the original; the re-issue is horrible in every single fashion) is amazing and I love it. The Caitiff Choir is my favorite IDT material (again, the original, not the re-issue). I liked two or three songs from Sirens but as a whole, it was really pussy stuff for IDT. Lividity is, to me, a lot more like The Caitiff Choir. I do miss Nick, though. His vocals poo poo all over this new guy's. I can only imagine Lividity recorded with Nick. "This Ghost", "Thank You For Drinking", "Miss October", and whatever track 6 is are my favorites as of now. Awesome gym album, I'll be lifting to it again tonight.

I am going to see Killswitch Engage with All That Remains and Unearth on Saturday at Jones Beach for $15. It's like MA exploded all over Wantagh NY and I get to partake in the awesomeness. I am psyched.

My avatar should give a clear understanding of my stance on Emmure. I'll just say that when I last spoke to Vincent after a show, he just nodded and smiled when I mentioned Skynet being about Emmure. And anyone who can listen to "A Ticket for The Paralyzer" and not identify it as a lovely attempt at re-creating "Carbomb" is loving high. gently caress I hate Emmure. Nowadays they're like Limp Bizkit covering The Acacia Strain... Frank's red Yankees cap can't be far from coming. edit: I should mention that I always laugh when I think about the first night I saw The Acacia Strain. It was in fall of 04 right after 3750 dropped, in a tiny dive pool hall in Orange, CT. They were supporting All That Remains. But who went on before The Acacia Strain? A bunch of 14 year old kids called "Emmure"... Wamsutta fucked around with this message at 16:36 on Aug 30, 2009 |

Nigel Tufnel posted:Fair enough. Seems silly that's all. I suppose drawing an arbitrary line and saying everything on one side is X type of metal and over there is Y metal is pretty silly really anyway. I wonder if other genres have this problem? Does deep house hate minimal house? If like like ETID, check out Maylene And The Sons of Disaster (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maylene_and_the_Sons_of_Disaster#Discography) Someone in another version of this thread recommended them to me and they're awesome. I have "II" and it owns. poo poo, they apparently have a new album out called "III"... I need to get on that.

u mad? I, too, enjoy music. I own a couple of Emmure CDs that I listen to from time to time just because it's heavy and I like it. That doesn't mean considering one band a ripoff of another (and goddamn is it obvious in this case) dubs me a scene fag. I'm about as far removed from the scene as it gets, to be honest. As for Whitechapel... I dunno, brainless angry poo poo is good now and then, especially for lifting/working out, but the degree to which all of their songs (and Suicide Silence, Winds of Plague, etc) all blend together and sound the same just turns me off before I even get started.

Good bands? Blood Has Been Shed ain't nothin' ta gently caress wit'. I lost my copies of their first two albums. That makes me sad. Time to listen to Spirals. On the subject of Emmure, "Second Hand Smoke" from "The Complete Guide To Needlework" is awesome, even if it is "Carbomb" with a sampled intro piece. In fact, that album was pretty solid as a whole, and I wish they'd followed that sound/style... "Looking A Gift Horse In The Mouth" is great.

Traitorous Leopard posted:I only listened to one song on Youtube, but they remind me a lot of KSE - not particularly fond of them. Any recommendations for better songs than "She Speaks to Me"? They probably remind you of KSE because Howard Jones is the frontman... She Speaks To Me is their most "mainstream" song if you can even come close to calling BHBS that. Faded Pictures, Faded Memories: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RI0hkqX81uM&feature=related That's a good taste of BHBS even if the recording quality's not perfect.

Ive never listened to Unearth before Unearth are great, they lean more towards the "metal" side of metalcore but still have plenty of crunchy breakdowns. They have a lot of awesome 80s-tastic solos and riffs and poo poo. Ken Susi is an awesome guitarist. He's also like 5'4", I met him two weeks ago, haha. Small dude. He was bleeding from the top of his head and had no idea how it happened during their set.

Going to see Darkest Hour and Trivium tonight out on Long Island. I will be in the parking lot drinking beer during White Chapel's set (they're on first) because seriously, gently caress those guys/their fans. I'm mainly going for Darkest Hour, but don't mind Trivium either.

You're right, I do wish Emmure had gotten their asses kicked. Still, ballsy of Frank though. Gotta give him that. I am seeing Every Time I Die headline the Crazy Donkey (Long Island) on 10/5 and I cannot loving wait. I've only seen them once, and it was a 25 minute set at Sounds of the Underground two years ago. A full set in a small club = yes.

attackmole posted:Replace DL with Vincent and all of Emmure with Frankie, and this actually happened two days ago. Haha, yeah, I actually read that earlier today at work. While what really went down will remain a mystery to anyone except eye-witnesses, it doesn't surprise me to think that Frankie would pull a cheapshot like that. I just hope it ends here. We don't need guys getting shot behind this bullshit. Also on the subject of DL, I read that he has left the band indefinitely to deal with the upcoming birth of his child. The Acacia Strain have former Blood Has Been Shed guitarist filling in. loving A. I'm sure the BHBS guy will more than hold his own, but DL is something else. He writes sick loving riffs, is fun as hell to watch live, and has a hell of a lot of stage presence. I hope he comes back.

I do know they started off (or maybe it was second song?) with that New Roman song or whatever, and the second to last song was For The Record. It also said ebolorama on the setlist but idk if they played it. For The Record is loving fantastic... and if they play Elaborama that alone will make the night for me Woohoo, can't wait

You missed everyone jizzing all over it a few pages ago. And with good cause... it's loving awesome. I like everything that band has written. Standout tracks for me on New Junk Aesthetic are tracks 4-6, blanking on the names except for "For The Record" right now.

You are loving high, Maylene is amazing. I love ATR (although Overcome is p. weak compared to Fall of Ideals and This Darkened Heart) and would be psyched to see them with Maylene.

The Acacia Strain bashing going on in here is making me sad They're not re-inventing the wheel or anything, and they know that. They have a sound that works for them and that they're really good at and they stick with it. They're not going to start singing. They're not going to start ripping Dream Theater solos. No keyboards. They bring the chug and bring it in large quantities and I love it. I need to buy a new avatar (this is three years old) so that I can post poo poo like this without appearing like as much of a dickrider as I must in this post

August Burns Red sound great on record, I've never seen them live. But it sounds a bit off for the Strain to be opening for them... should be the other way around.

ShoogaSlim posted:DL apparently got his girl knocked up which is why he wasn't on the tour. I thought Acacia was great as always. Nothing particularly better about this tour than others, but not any worse. Someone told me the Strain are touring with two guitars now, is that accurate? They hired two temporary dudes in DL's absence? I hope they keep two once DL's back... most of their songs just don't work live because of the single guitar (versus crazy layering on the albums). poo poo I wouldn't be opposed to going back to three if they find the right people, because they sounded loving unreal live during the 3750 era.

Mazel Tov posted:3 guitars is pointless. DL pulls it off very well by himself, all he needs is some kind of sampler for the leads that are on the cd. Pretty funny when he's heavier than Whitechapel's 3 guitarists. Yeah I agree, 3 is by no means necessary. I've seen the Strain more with just DL than I did with 2 or 3 guitars. You're right that it's mainly the leads that feel missing. I can't imagine seeing the band without DL there. He's half of the stage presence just by himself. The man is a beast. Whitechapel are awful but I will say this, they play very tight and clean live. I saw them open for Trivium. I didn't enjoy their music in the slightest, but the guys know what they're doing. It's a shame they don't use their powers for good.

Except for the loving wheelchair guy, again. 3 for loving 3 for having to huddle around a guy in a wheelchair in the pit during Lamb of God to make sure he doesn't get crushed into oblivion. Its getting pretty god drat old. How is wheelchair guy your problem? If you didn't go to the show with him and you don't know him, don't waste your time making sure his stupid no-judgment having rear end doesn't get hurt. Also I am jealous of that show, LoG and DH own. Although I believe I am seeing Lamb open up for Metallica tomorrow night in MSG. That makes me happy. What did DH play? I saw them with Trivium back in September and it was something like... Demon(s) A Paradox With Flies Convalescence Blessed Infection And one or two others, they went on first Darkest Hour playing before White Chapel makes me sad.

They were really tight and solid live and a really fun group of guys to talk to. We hung out with them during the end of Trivium's set because we were all tired and my friend Steve had taken a hardcore kid's fist to the nose in the pit (who in the gently caress hardcore dances to Trivium? Really?)
