Track Of The Day - The Revolution Edition
One of the most quintessential songs in early sludgy math/metalcore:
A killer neoclassical metalcore standout to start Hope for the Dying's first offering:
This glorious 15-minute 3-track suite works better with every part stitched together as a whole, and I've literally just done that as my own video:
One of the most epic and innovative metal tracks I've heard in my life, in The Revolution or any other clan:
You can't go wrong with brutality in deathcore and djent, they know how to bust sh*t hard:
With the opening highlight of Humanity's Last Breath's sophomore album, the brutality hasn't withered away since their 2013 debut:

The perfect anthem to start this early metalcore/hardcore gem:
One of only two tracks I like in this release, this one has a brutal breakdown similar to early Job for a Cowboy:
An absolutely phenomenal melodic deathcore highlight! WILL YOU PURSUE?!
Another true anthem of melodic deathcore:

An epic of triumph and emotion, perhaps Lorna Shore's greatest achievement! More info in my review once their new album gets added to the site:
One of the only tracks in Demon Hunter's new album to qualify for The Revolution, this opening highlight may be the closest to the band's earlier melodic metalcore roots:
Incredible guitarwork and guest vocals in this epic blackened deathcore offering's grand finale:
Earlier drama and muddy production aside, the highlight of this Immortal Disfigurement album really stands out as the symphonics stay audible while making room for the heavy energy:
