Track Of The Day - The Revolution Edition
Another metalcore guitarist has fallen, Brad Thomson, formerly of mathcore band The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza. He was known "as one helluva guitar player", and fans of the band have been grateful to hear his mighty guitar skills in the first two TDTE albums. RIP
A once-thought-impossible blend of the speedy power metal of DragonForce and the epic melodic deathcore of Shadow of Intent in such a combination as cinematic as Dethklok's Doomstar Requiem:
Holy sh*t! New ERRA single?! You bet I'm up for some more awesome progressive metalcore action:
A true classic metalcore highlight. Although the song is based on a horrific tour bus crash caused by a drunk driver that killed two members of an earlier band Compromise, the song title reminded me of my Summer break being cut short by my busy schedule:
Another highlight, from ambient metalcore band Invent Animate:
An iconic highlight of Welsh melodic metalcore:
Killer melodic deathcore from Los Angeles, if you're up for a band similar to All Shall Perish and the 2000s eras of The Acacia Strain and Bring Me the Horizon:
A live take on one of BTBAM's earlier classic hits:
Another hit from those Welsh melodic metalcore masters:
The first non-split EP by Parkway Drive has some killer metalcore highlights like this one:
And the bonus section with tracks from their earlier split EPs has some awesome standouts like this too:
An incredible technical metalcore highlight with the best of the late Ryan Siew's amazing sharp guitar leads:
Talented teamwork in the instrumentation, all kinds of vocals these two vocalists can do... How ultimate can these guys get?!
The ultimate Polaris anthem, with full-on rage you just gotta experience. RIP Ryan Siew
One of the greatest early metalcore/deathcore songs that I would recommend for fans of Abnegation and the late 90s eras of Embodyment and Underoath:
A 7-minute metal/hardcore epic that has brushed aside the EP's lack of the more lively elements from their full-length album:
A two and a half minute highlight of metalcore/deathgrind, name-dropping the MCU Iron Man actor in its song title:
Some more metalcore bands I now enjoy thanks to some amazing discoveries, including the math-ish metalcore of these two bands:
And the melodic metalcore of these two bands:
Some more metalcore bands I now enjoy thanks to some amazing discoveries, including the melodic metalcore of these two bands:
The crushing deathcore of Impending Doom:
And the experimental mathy metalcore of The Chariot:
Merry Christmas, fellow metalheads! (a day late but never mind) Deathcore parody masters Brojob made a Christmas parody of Lorna Shore's "To the Hellfire". So brutal and hilarious!
The songs in this xNOMADx EP are quite decently good, but I haven't really found any highlights from there to stand out for me, except for this one:
Nu-mathcore with the riffing basically mashing together the early 2000s eras of Converge and Linkin Park:
Spine-chilling symphonic blackened deathcore for only the bravest and/or darkest souls:
Summarizing In This Moment's one-off melodic metalcore sound is basically the band's theme song, as least in their early era:
A 6-minute epic to conclude one of my recent favorite metalcore debut albums:
