I love their new album. Reviewed it too.

New Annotations of An Autopsy sounds very promising. They released a new song titled 'In Snakes I Bathe' on their myspace. It may be too soon to tell but judging by this song it seems like they are progressing in the right direction.

MySpace player isn't loading with me.. whats the general sound of it?

It is significantly more death metal oriented. I guess they are Job-for-a-Cowboying over to death metal. The song is quite good.

EDIT: Also, a general recommendation: Try the band Fallen Figure. I saw them live in Lompoc last night, and they were fantastic. I bought their demo for a dollar, totally worth it. They play a very death metal oriented form of deathcore. The breakdowns are minimal, and feel pretty natural when they come. Quite technical as well.

The instrumental aspect is fine, but the vocals sound like he's singing through a really shitty microphone.

Recently I've been starting to listen to a lot more of The Red Chord, All Shall Perish and Despised Icon, basically most of the "credited as one of the originators of deathcore"-bands. I like most deathcore bands I've heard that don't use these annoying BMTH/Suicide Silence screams, more hardcore oriented growl/screams appeal to me.
I like the chaotic nature of The Red Chord, the varying vocals of both Despised Icon and All Shall Perish and the guitars in All Shall Perish.
Any recommendations? Two bands I have in mind already are As Blood Runs Black and Whitechapel that I mean to look up as soon as I can.

Edit: Forgot about Veil Of Maya, that's a really good deathcore band too that I like.

Here Comes the Kraken.

My god that has to be the most terrible band name I've ever heard, BUT! the music was actually the kind I was looking for. I was expecting some Dr. Acula/wecamewithbrokenteeth clone but no, this was good.

Here Comes the Kraken is shit. Don't know why they get any positive attention.

You may like Culling the Weak since you like ASP.

Also, Moker, Molotov Solution, and Diluvian might interest you.

Anyone know of any groove/trashcore similar to machine head, devil driver, god forbid, etc?

I liked their album, I think it's the other way around, they get shit because of the name and genre they belong to. Most metalfans automatically assumes a band is shit if it has deathcore stamped in the forehead, especially with a name like that. Anyway, each to his own.
Culling The Weak was great too, I really liked the melodic parts. Same with Diluvian.

The Red Shore - Technical Deathcore, guys are very talented and the music is awesome, lots of variation.

Last House On the Left - Blackened Deathcore, (NOT like Abigail Williams) one of the more original -core acts I've listened to. Definitely check them
out.

The Partisan Turbine - It's NOT EXACTLY deathcore, but it's got breakdown s and could technically pass as deathcore. Very fast riffs, heavy slams and breakdowns with gutturals and squeals. Great band.

Thy Art is Murder - Sort of like The Red Shore.

Molotov Solution - Great deathcore band, their best material is the split they did with War From a Harlot's Mouth.

Arsonists Get All the Girls - Experimental Deathcore, you've probably heard of them though. Very original and have a lot of great ideas, one of my favorite bands.

I Declare War - A bit generic, but decent and with low gutturals.

Misericordiam - They used to be shitty deathcore, but their lated release is death/grind so you should check that out. Amazing shit.


All I can think of at the top of my head, hope it helps

Good call on the Australian bands, both are really good. I've heard of them all except Last House On the Left, but I will check them out again anyway.

I couldn't make it through the whole HCTK album personally. Found it very boring both musically and vocally, the vocals especially irritating me. Make sure to check out their lyrics for a good laugh though.


Glad you like the bands!

Only decent deathcore bands are Born of Osiris and All Shall Perish.
After the Burial and Beneath the Massacre are listenable...but that's about my limit for deathcore.

Neaera and Heaven Shall Burn are the only two metalcore bands worth caring about.

Also, I've heard endless praise for The Red Chord but haven't had the time to check them out... and Molotov Solution's music leaves a lot to be desired but their political/societal themed lyrics are among the best i've ever heard.

Wasn't sure if you knew the more well known deathcore bands , so here's a couple less known ones.


Plague of Ashitaka - Technical Deathcore with a japanese theme.

A Different Breed of Killer - Good deathcore, somewhat technical.

From the Carnival of Horrors - Sort of like above^

Oceano - Scene kid deathcore, but it's surprisingly very heavy.

The Argent Dawn - Video game inspired deathcore, very good. I think they were even endorsed by Blizzard at one point.

The Boy Will Drown - Tech Deathcore.

HIROSHIMA WILL BURN - <---- THIS. Technical wank deathcore/metal, but very good I must say.

Martyr Defiled - Similar to Whitechapel.

Rose Funeral - Pretty average deathcore, but I seem to like them a lot.

Viatrophy - Melodic-ish deathcore.

Trigger the Bloodshed - Very fast, technical.

Trigger the Bloodshed isn't really that -core anymore as of their last album. More like death metal with some core remnants.



This is what I think every time I listen to Rose Funeral. Mentally I feel like it's too simple and generic but for some reason I really like listening to it.

Also: Everyone should go check out the new Annotations of an Autopsy song they posted today. It's called Cryogenica. They're another example of a deathcore band going for a more straightforward death metal sound. The two new songs sound promising.

Oh that's up already? They said .. oh shit they're from the UK haha.

New song is sick. Can't wait for this release. Cool cover art too.

a fallen theory always had good songs imo and the reason i know about them is because someone recomended them to me on this site

nice to see Moker being mentioned here a few times, really underrated band, not the deathcore we know from new wave of deathcore bands like Suicide Silence/Whitechapel/AAOA/.. (bands all those scene kids are into atm) the cool thing is, these guys have their own sound, i could pick them easily from a list of dozens of deathcore bands

plz do check em out if you don't know them yet, they really need some listeners, they're quite popular locally, i think they're an important band because they're representing the Belgian deathcore-scene, together with bands like Crimson Falls, Fatal Recoil, The End Of All Reason and Days Of Betrayal

About the only thing I listen to as far as metalcore goes is Soilwork's more recent stuff after Natural Born Chaos. It's really hard for me to get into anything with the term core in it. I guess there's something for everyone though. All That Remains has a decent sound as well. That's about as core as I go.

Great live performances, very technically oriented songs with a lot of soul too.

There's a certain line that "core" bands often stray into but the differences are, nevertheless, sometimes subtle and other times not. I listen to Lamb of God and I think "Pantera" but when I listen to Unearth I think "Biohazard" if that makes any sense. I'm a bigger fan of the former type.

I still don't understand what distinguishing characteristics that Between the Buried and Me had that warranted their removal when a band like As I Lay Dying remains on MA. Does anyone know what specific post or thread triggered this?

Checked em out, and they're really good. Reminds me of Aborted but with deathcore influences.

hiroshima will burn should have never broke up imo they could have turned into one of the best techical death metal bands around imo with time their demo was horrible but their album was very good
that reminds me does anyone know any similar bands to hiroshima will burn? the only band that reminds me of them kinda is gallows for grace

I haven't listened to them that much so I'm not sure how similar they are but, if you're into wanky technical deathcore (and I mean that in the best way possible) check out We are the Romans. http://www.myspace.com/wearetheromans

Viraemia!
They're by no means deathcore but they are similar to HWB. Amazing band, I've fallen in love with their 5 band ep.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vAx5FPG ... re=related

The quality is horrible, and the album version sounds amazing, so don't be put off by youtube's killing of sound.


Also, Beneath the Massacre play technical deathcore if you don't already know of them.

thank you we are the romans sounds good so far(only checked out one song so far) they so far sound similar to hiroshima will burn, i think hiroshima will burn had the opinion that the weirder their music sounds the better(guitair wise anyways) so they are not as weird as hiroshima will burn in that way but they are a very good band
btw if anyone likes pig squeals and such(i know most people hate them) you might like a band called tomb of doom(horrible name)

We Are The Romans have only an EP out yet but it's very promising. I'm looking forward to hear more.

hey i am searching something like Heart of a cowarD
http://www.myspace.com/heartofacoward
=> around the songs a girl in the 80s (the first half of the song), we stand as one
i really like the voice of the singer

hmm.. check out After The Burial .. and maybe Architects

and the screaming voice reminds me of (new) Bring Me The Horizon, so you might check them out as well if you don't know em.. they also have that type of groovish riffs on their latest album..

Thanks for Recommendation but I already know these Bands and only in some Moments these remind me of heart of a coward

All these bands have the same type of riffing styles. Ion Dissonance is the only one Im a fan of but I figured Id throw a few more in incase you do find interest in them.

Check out Ion Dissonance, Bury Your Dead, The Acacia Strain, Emmure, American Me

Outisde of deathcore i think you may like Gojira and Meshuggah. Check them out aswell.

Technical deathcore in the vain of Beneath the Massacre?
I really dislike pretty much every deathcore band I've heard except them, but them again, I've only heard the super popular ones.

Ive always loved Beneath The Massacre. There isnt any other deathcore band that really sounds like them. But there are some other overly technical Death metal bands like them that you may like.

BrainDrill
Vireamia

try Tigger The Bloodshed..

The Red Shore too.

Listened to be Trigger The Bloodshed and The Red Shore. Also looked at some of the bands described as technical deathcore in above posts.

I figure that most technical deathcore must be held to a much higher standard, because it's much more listenable to me than just standard deathcore.

gallows for grace and hiroshima will burn

Totally. I like deathcore, but technical deathcore is a lot more enjoyable than standard deathcore - and kind of more 'fun' than standard brutal death metal based tech death.

Check out Born of Osiris, Animosity, Veil of Maya, The Red Chord and Hiroshima Will Burn.

Thanks you Sir/Lady
Ion Dissonance, Emmure, Bury you Dead is definitely a win for me
so more tipps would be nice


Gojira, Meshuggah not bad to
