Track Of The Day - The Revolution Edition

Ain't this a real heavy deal in early metalcore!

Angry heaviness occurs for this band:

An extreme-yet-melodic-influenced mix of deathgrind and prototypical deathcore:

From the album that marks the true start of deathcore. Surely, bands like Despised Icon, Suicide Silence, and Whitechapel wouldn't exist without it.

Fantastic metalcore with black/death metal influences from this band in which 3 of the members would later form Between the Buried and Me:

Epic melodeath-inspired metalcore from that short-lived underrated band:

A sneak peek to their next album System Overload in their Hookedlung compilation, with a nice Danzig/Sabbath influence in the pace:

I'm amazed by Unbroken's 9-minute epic to shape up top-notch progressive-ish hardcore/metalcore for a metallic future:

A blast through the rebellious lyrics and chorus rhythm of metal/hardcore:

Funny song title, scary lyrics (for newcomers), metalcore/mathcore greatness:

A brutal early blend of death metal and deathcore, showing that they improved a lot since the Misanthrope EP:

This band shows how to revive post-hardcore/metalcore from 20 years ago while staying unique and fresh for a new generation:

Industrial metalcore from Pittsburgh, USA.

A weird yet highly chaotic mix of early metalcore with some tech-thrash and doom influences:

Another early metalcore/mathcore classic:

A hardcore-driven metalcore anthem from New York, USA.

Some rip-roaring metalcore from North Carolina, USA.

Southern metalcore from Alabama, USA.

This early deathcore/death metal album is never really close to best in originality and production, but this brutal highlight rules:

Aggressive metalcore greatness:

Can also be (barely) heard in the Vin Diesel film xXx (throughout the first half of this video):

An early wicked combo of groove-ish hardcore/metalcore and Deicide-like death metal:

Good riffs, great screams, and brilliant breakdowns occur in one of only two highlights of this split EP (both only on Caliban's side):

Top-notch raw math/metalcore brutality from the only well-done song of this EP that's otherwise deathcore/melodeath with messed-up aspects:

After revisiting a couple albums from my symphonic-ish power metal past, it was time to return to the more brutal end of the symphonic-ish metal spectrum, with a newfound favorite for me and my usually alt-rock/metal-loving brother. Solid epic symphonic black/technical deathcore, mandatory for fans of deathcore including bands such as Shadow of Intent, Brand of Sacrifice, and Chelsea Grin:
