Track Of The Day - The Revolution Edition
Super-aggressive US deathcore.
A short, rhythmic groove metal piece from Seattle-based melodic metalcore outfit Demon Hunter.

This one continues the fast heaviness but it's too short at just 2 minutes and filled with an uninteresting Mudvayne-like sound. Doesn't bring down the perfect 5-star rating for this album, but if we were rating albums by percentage, I would say it's 95%.
Look, there are 5 or 6 tracks on the album that I enjoy but I think "LifeWar" is probably the one that I get the most out of because it doesn't try to cancel out it's aggression with an easy-listening accessibility. I'll go with a 62% for the album overall.
Super-extreme mathcore from Berlin, Germany.

Definitely the best track in the album with riffs crushing through frantic drumming.
A brutal killer remake of We Came as Romans' epic comeback single:
As I make my reviewing journey through Car Bomb's discography to gear up for when I review their recent album Mordial that is this month's Revolution feature release, their previous album Meta is another perfect mathcore album with experimental highlights like this one featuring clean vocals by Joe Duplantier of Gojira:
The most mathcore tribute to Metallica?! You decide!
High quality New York mathcore/djent. This track was the clear highlight from the album for me Andi.

This one's also good, an unforgiving sonic crusher!
RIP Trevor Strnad of American melodeath band The Black Dahlia Murder. I still enjoy his wild guest appearance in this song from mathcore group Gaza:
A wild experimental blend of the earliest mathcore, progressive jazz, and brutal slam-tech-death:
A killer track from the much better birth of mathcore (before the more popular league of Botch, The Dillinger Escape Plan, and 2000s Converge) while in perfect balance with standard metalcore:
I'm currently taking on the first two Coalesce albums, and I'm at another perfect start with the destructive Give Them Rope, with pummeling highlights like this one:
Some of the most furious metallic mathcore you'll ever hear:
Slayer-riff-powered mathy metalcore. Start headbanging!
A speedy aggressive (later turned melodic) metal/mathcore ride:
A 20-minute epic of sludgy mathcore to please fans of Neurosis, Botch, and Cult of Luna:
The birth of metalcore:
An important part of 90s hardcore, already signifying the metalcore vision of Earth Crisis and Hatebreed:
A mighty mix of pre-Tool alt-metal and mid-paced angry metalcore:
I changed my mind. THIS is the birth of metalcore if we count the 1989 demo version:
These two tracks together form the ultimate early Revolution anthem:
