I like a little deathcore, and some are pretty metal, but the truth is that the majority are not. Liking the music = fine. Pretending it and you are something you are not = posing; that I cannot stand.Oh, and calling deathcore "brutal" is like calling Anaal Nathrakh "melodic."

Still not as bad as the scene kids that worship Bring Me The Horizon and think that listening to Suicide Silence makes them a "brutal metalhead."

_{i mean i'm totally chill with people making fun of what i like. it's just music, in the end it's not that important. plus i'd be incredibly hypocritical if i got mad at people for hating what i like considering i make fun of what just about everyone else in this topic listens to.}

There is this wonderful thing called "joking," you know? Maybe you should try looking it up sometime; no need to thank me. *Sarcastic smile*I may not like deathcore but I cannot stop others from listening to it. Your point is what exactly? I also like slam death, technical death, goregrind and melodic death just so you know.

i won't deny that they seem really boring, i thought that too at first. they're really more about groove over everything else which i enjoy a lot. i hope that you would've figured out by now that 90% of what i listen to is deathcore rubbish haha

any of you guys bad enough dudes to like I Declare War? that s/t album crushes

I agree with the Five Finger Death Punch are gross statement.

Also, I've pretty much had it with this condescending and elitist attitude of yours.

^^What he said. I have to say however, that I whilst I am a brutal death metal guy at heart, I much prefer Death's later progressive/melodic work for some reason.Also, check out Versus Heaven. I was unsure of the power/thrash fusion at first, but I love it now.-Sykura

i know there's a lot of variety. i wasn't being sarcastic haha. i mean most artists are derivative in some way or another but the variety in metal is astounding

Trevor's vocals are amazing what are you talking about

aww, really? tbdm is easily one of my favorite bands. yeah it's basically by-the-books melodeath but they pull it off so well i don't really mind the lack of originality. also trevor is personally one of my favorite vocalists hahaguess that's the glory of metal, there's just so much variety

i just find it funny because victory is the same label that's brought us such gems as Emmure, A Day To Remember, and Design The Skylinei'm actually starting to dig cephalotripsy and devourment too. still not the biggest fan of the gurgling but it's way more stomachable to me now

I'm also a big fan of Aborted, mostly their earlier efforts. Goremageddon is classic.The best band to chill to is definitely Torsof--- though.

yeah The Unspoken King is really just a bad album even by deathcore standardsokay i just found out that Trevor from the black dahlia murder is making a guest appearance on Global Flatline. consider my excitement increased tenfold

Yeah, I hope they come near me too (northern England, haha). They are pretty big, so I imagine that there will probably be a Global Flatline tour of sorts. But knowing my luck, probably not.Yes, I like Pathology. Surgically Hacked and Incisions of Perverse Debauchery have got to be my favourites of their work. And may I ask what their record label has to do with anything? They have changed it about three times now. Also, Pathology are not exactly slam in the vein of Cephalotripsy, Abominable Putridity or Visceral Disgorge, so if you like Pathology, check out Intracranial Butchery, Cesspool Of Vermin and Cerebral Incubation.-Sykura

Well that is good then. Oh my god, I ###### love Aborted. You have no idea how excited I am for Global Flatline.-Sykura

haha i can't even stand those bands. just my tastes i suppose. i'll still with my rehashed deathcore bands (i will openly admit most deathcore is completely unoriginal and almost all of it sounds exactly the same even though i love it a lot)DtG is Big Chocolate's band right? i've been meaning to check out Circle of Nine for a while. shame he hates metal nowbtdubs that Alice Through The Windshield Glass band is godly, tanks bro

I am fond of Corey Taylor's "XM@$". Not a big fan of thrash, but I do love Warbringer, and Annihilator are pretty good too

Haha, I love the "toilet frog" vocals. The harsher and less coherent, the better it is as far as I am concerned. Although a fair bit of slam (Short Bus Pile Up, Devourment, Cesspool Of Vermin and Awaiting The Autopsy to name a few) do not use the gurgle vocals so much. I know right? Although Lord Worm is apparantly starting up a melodic black metal/industrial which should be interesting. Also Disfiguring The Goddess are sooooo brutal it ain't even funny.

At the moment I would have to say Cryptopsy, (Lord Worm Cryptopsy, not that new abomination) Short Bus Pile Up, Human Error, Anaal Nathrakh and Cephalotripsy. (I love slam death)

chelsea grin, and of course whitechapel

And this is exactly what was wrong with the previous topic; people judging each other unfairly because of musical tastes, and assuming that bands are good simply because of their status or genre.

I heard they were still working on it, but I dunno. I don't really care either way, personally - I love Metallica's first five albums to death (say what you will about post-Black Album Metallica, but that album itself was great) but I recently realized that at this point they're not much more than irrelevant, washed-up rock stars like so many others, more concerned with their image than with making truly good music. To quote Metallica themselves, "it's sad but true".
