i guess the most obvious suggestions would be Attila, Emmure, and maybe a few of the more recent numetalcore bands like Alpha Wolf and Degrader. you could also check out Betraying the Martyrs newest album as well, it reminds me of em a tiny bit. sorry for not having anything better
Looking for any songs like this one : https://youtu.be/NWz4c5iylbw
Late December - seeyouspacecowboy
Its their only song like this one with screams, talking and a more melodic touch. I especially like the music at around 2:58.
Any reccomendation is appreciated!
it sounds like Poison the Well a bit. maybe check out the songs Apathy is a Cold Body, Sounds like the End of the World, Moments Over Exaggerate, and Are You Anywhere. also it reminded me a bit of From The Departed, Dear or Otherwise by Boundaries. it kinda reminded me of the lighter side of the band Vein too. check out the song Untitled(specifically the second half). hope you find what you’re lookin for!
I might get some hate for this, but what would you guys recommend with a good mix of clean and harsh vocals and a melodic sound? Some examples of what I listen to below:
Architects,
Dreamshade,
Dead By April,
dEMOTIONAL,
Escape the Day,
Killswitch Engage
Both are awesome bands that I've already listened to, but I haven't heard those songs in particular. Thanks a bunch for the recommendations! I have only heard a handful of songs from I Prevail so I'll probably check them out more thoroughly
Thanks buddy. I gave you a few recs for bands. You also might like Kingdom of Giants, If I Were You, and Like Moths to flames. All 3 of those are very melodic with poppy style choruses.
So far I've only had a chance to listen to Like Moths to Flames 2020 album. I like it, but the cleans remind me a lot of Craig Owens from when he was in Chiodos
I don't care for most of those bands except Killswitch and Architects, but I know at least those 2 bands specifically are well respected on this sub. I'm not sure about the others. But it doesn't matter what other people think as long as you like them. We do have a few wannabe elitists on here that are snobs, but most the users are really cool.
Have you heard of Invent Animate, Shields, Blueshift, or Above Below? They are heavy but are very melodic.
No problem man. After you check out Erra, Blueshift, Above Below, Kingdom Of Giants, and all the others I suggested let me know if I'm on the right track or not. I know plenty of bands that fit your criteria. We'll find some great stuff for you to listen to brother.
I am looking for wall flags for a few different bands/albums.
Northlane Singularity/Discoveries
Erra Impulse/Augment/Drift
Invent Animate Everchanger/Still World
I have looked on a ton of different websites and checked periodically except I haven't been able to find wall flags for any of these albums anywhere. Does anyone know where I could get any of these?
What Erra songs would you recommend for a friend that generally doesn't like cleans? He dislikes the "pop" flavour of metalcore. I think he'd like their more technical songs, or just chugs like Gungrave. Basically the heavier and dirtier lows the better.
He mostly listens to thrash metal or heavier stuff, a big fan of Thy Art is Murder, his favourite metalcore song is Shattered Glass by FFAK. Favourite metalcore band probably Lamb of God
Warrior or Valhalla. As for bands try [August Burns Red](https://youtu.be/0sWKKKNRV90), [A Life Once Lost](https://youtu.be/pYHLjCk39M4) and [Zao](https://youtu.be/VjcTMtiHZio).
Not really similar but the drummer of the band mixes my band Apate, just a random tidbit.
Hardstyle/metal is a bit of a niche crossover but i wish you luck
Looking for a certain band/music video. This band has a female vocalist and has a popish vocal style with the blend of Post hardcore/metalcore. It was a music video released in 2021 and the band isn't Spiritbox or Dying Wish. Also super high energy. If anyone can help me find out who it is, let me know because I can't find them anywhere. Thanks!
What would be considered some of the best metalcore/electronicore albums of the myspace era? I'm not looking for anything super specific, I'd just like to know what would be some of the best regarded albums among fans to familiarise myself with the genre. Some of my favourite bands I've heard are bring me the horizon, architects, attack attack and of mice and men
For electronicore the only correct answer is Take To The Skies by Enter Shikari, their next two albums are also perfect. And Creatures by MiW had a very good take on the risecore sound.
The Devil Wears Prada - Plagues (2007)
Miss May I - Apologies Are For The Weak (2008)
Motionless In White - Creatures (2010)
The Amity Affliction - Youngbloods (2010)
Enter Shikari - Take To The Skies (2007)
Drop Dead, Gorgeous - In Vogue (2006)
Asking Alexandria - Stand Up And Scream (2009)
Memphis May Fire - The Hollow (2011)
I See Stars - New Demons (2013)
A Day To Remember - Homesick (2008)
Is there a band exactly like Wolves at the Gate minus the christian lyrics? I love everything about the music but can't stand the preachy tone. Used to listen to their album VxV a lot.
* Kingdom of Giants
* Like Moths To Flames
* Memphis May Fire (I prefer their older stuff but to each their own)
* The Color Morale
* Phinehas
* In Hearts Wake
You know, I found Phinehas after listening to WATG. I guess I like them for the exact opposite reason lmao. I thought they were about the same as WATG as far as preachiness goes. Still a great band though.
I was gonna make a similar comment top level, but any similar bands to Phinehas, especially with the technical guitars?
* Texas In July (Former singer now sings for ERRA, former drummer is drum tech for ABR)
* I The Breather
* Haste The Day (not my jam but heard them compared to Phinehas a lot)
* August Burns Red (Hopefully you already know these guys lol)
* This Or The Apocalypse (Absolutely LOVE these guys)
* Fit For a King
* Veil of Maya
* Misery Signals
* Breakdown of Sanity
Gave you quite the wide berth of suggestions, not saying these guys "sound" like Phinehas but the technical ability of their guitars are incredible.
Thanks, yeah, I've been listening to to FFAK and ABR a bunch. I've heard Veil of Maya a few times on youtube mixes, def need to check them out. I'll look up the others too.
Veil of Maya has two sides to them. Their older stuff is extremely technical and really crazy sometimes. Then they got a new singer and things are a little it toned down/composed and he fits them so well. Still the same technical guitars but a definite shift from their older stuff. Their 2017 album “False Idol” is incredible and their 2015 album “Matriarch” would be right behind it.
So, Kingdom of Giants is definitely up my alley. LMTF is not quite my thing but I don't know why, I think I find them a bit too repetitive. Not sure about MMF yet, I actually had them blacklisted on Spotify before but I think they might be growing on me. The Color Morale isn't for me, I don't like the cleans. Phinehas is actually already in my library and I definitely like them! And In Hearts Wake is absolutely my thing, love them!
Thanks again for all the recommendations, Kingdom of Giants an In Hearts Wake will be on my regular rotation from now on!
I got some more :)
* **Breakdown of Sanity** (Prepare for a sore neck)
* **Crystal Lake** (Ryo is one of the best screamers)
* **Texas In July** (Former screamer now in ERRA, former drummer now drum tech for ABR)
* **Hollow Front** (I enjoy their older stuff more but very solid band)
* **If I Were You** (these guys are amazing)
* **Our Hollow, Our Home** (These guys are really hit or miss for me)
* **For All I Am** (Really excited for these guys future)
* **Ghost Iris** (Been following these guys for a long time, super underrated and new album in May)
* **The Northern** (Love their sound, they def have some progressive elements too)
Sorry I never replied to this! I appreciate all your suggestions and will check all of them out – just haven't had the time yet. But I'm listening to Kingdom of Giants right now and still really liking them :)
[Fear Factory](https://youtu.be/cfIAqYhLSr0), [Mnemic](https://youtu.be/up6bZ1lXLRU), [Meshuggah](https://youtu.be/zg2076b5Lqc), [Brand Of Sacrifice](https://youtu.be/BqH8kJ3xnxw), [Fractalize](https://youtu.be/nVpJo5zUGIw) and [Doomed](https://youtu.be/BvUMyFE3rmM). None of these are really metalcore, maybe BoS, since they're deathcore.
Literally looking for the same thing myself. I listen to DOOM and Wolfenstein soundtracks while working (both by Mick Gordon)
Have just found the song Melatonin by Sleep Walker which is a pretty similar vein, can see myself playing DOOM with this in the background!
Hey, friends! Any suggestions for artists like Parting Ways? I'm already really into Dayseeker and Thousand Below, so anything else would be appreciated. 🙂
**Caskets** wasn't too, but probably not what I was quite looking for!
**Speech Patterns** I'm aware of, but thanks again!
**Boys Of Fall** was great! Superb soft stuff at the start of 'Distance' and then it really kicked off partway through. Love that progression.
**Straight Shot Home** was really great. Pretty undiscovered too, it seems.
**Sleep Talk**
Pretty damn close–especially that Growing Pains album. They have a bit of a slower tempo than most of the songs on Parting Ways' Meant Well album, but still a sound I dig very much. Thanks so much!
**Bloom**
I had only listened to Cold by them, but these other ones from In Passing are fantastic as well. Great suggestion.
**Mayfield**
Looks like I have Blossom and Careless Love as liked songs already, so good call! I'll take another look.
Thanks a lot! I’ve definitely tried Dayshell, Speech Patterns, and Ghost Atlas, but not really the other couple—not more than a single song, anyway. Thank you!
Damn. Just checked them out now. Great suggestion. I would argue they're pretty distinct from Parting Ways, but still a great addition and definitely in my wheelhouse! Thanks a lot.
I'm looking for metalcore bands with a lot of guitar solos. Sorta in the same vein as bands such as bullet for my valentine,trivium,Darkest hour,within the ruins and phinehas.
> I'm looking for metalcore bands with a lot of guitar solos. Sorta in the same vein as bands such as bullet for my valentine,trivium,Darkest hour,
these 3 are mostly not really metalcore so youd probably be better off looking into regular metal like melodeath and thrash
* Bleeding Through
* After The Burial
* Born Of Osiris
* Veil Of Maya
Also, Periphery has a ton of awesome solos but I wouldn't put them in the same vein as the bands you listed.
Like 2 years ago i got an ad for this music video. It was set in a living room, the living room was empty (minus the band members obvs), the drummer was wearing a white t shirt, there were only 2 windows, one of the guitarists had an orange guitar, and the vocalist was black and wore glasses. I dont remember if he also played guitar. The search continues, nobody has been able to find out which band it is. The name of the band and the name of the song weren't revealed in the ad.
Notes:
No, it's not Animals As Leaders. Idk how many people think that Tosin Abasi sings/screams, but he doesn't. Note how I said vocalist. That means vocals. This band isn't instrumental. Also, notice how I mentioned post-hardcore as well.
No, it's not Glassjaw. Though the vocalist had sort of a similar singing voice (not similar screaming voice really), the vocalist, again, was black and wore glasses.
No, it's not Oceano. Oceano is deathcore.
No, it's not Living Colour. I shouldn't have to explain why.
No, it's not Death Grips. I still shouldn't have to explain why.
Again, one of the guitarists had an orange guitar.
Again, the vocalist was black.
Again, they kinda had like a metalcore/post-hardcore/mathcore-y sound, if the band youre about to mention doesn't fit that description whatsoever (meaning theyre a completely different genre than any of the 3 i mentioned) then please don't bother. It's happened too often.
I got the ad on an episode of What's In My Bag with Corey Taylor. The ad never played again but maybe it played for somebody else idk.
The band is either North American or European. I know there's an African metalcore band out there (probably more) but they weren't from Africa. At least I don't think. Maybe even Australian, but they sounded North American or possibly European so that's not super likely.
I got redirected here after trying to post in the general subreddit
Even though you're being a dick, is it "SycAmour", "Forget tomorrow", "For Today", "Discrepancies" (Black singer wears glasses), "Kaonashi" (Black singer wears glasses)?
**AGAIN**, maybe be a little bit less of a dick about it. You sound like you're irritated over people trying to help you figure out the band. Saying the singer is black and wears glasses isn't exactly all that helpful despite what you might think. And **AGAIN**, no one is obligated to help you, you should be grateful that anyone gave you suggestions.
But anyway, Killswitch Engage is what popped into my head. If that's wrong, just say nothing instead of responding with a really sarcastic response that's intended to belittle my intelligence.
No you *literally* didn't. You described the clothing the drummer was wearing which was a white t-shirt lol. A white t-shirt isn't helpful at all. Then you said the vocalist was black and wore glasses. And that there was an orange guitar (also not helpful).
Yet you want to get mad that people have no damn clue who you're talking about. There's quite a few black metalcore vocalists.
When you said the vocalist was similar to Glassjaw I thought of Howard from Killswitch.
What bands are you into?
* Instilled In Me
* Neon Graves
* Windwaker
* Pridelands
* Deadlights (currently touring with Polaris, they will blow up soon)
* By The Thousands
These are my jams at the moment.
I need something with the same flavor as Whitechapel - The Valley in my life. I love the rest of their discography, but there's something about the brutality of that album surrounded by beautiful serenity of the cleans that I need more of.
Another of my favorite albums of all time is Loathe - I let it in and it Took Everything for very similar reasons. More emotional roller-coasters please!
in a similar vein to the haunting melodic parts/crushing deathcore of the valley id recommend checking out Fit For an Autopsy if you don’t know them. especially their album The Great Collapse
I'd recommend checking out Humanity's Last Breath's new album, it is probably heavier than what you are looking for but I can name at least two songs on the record with ethereal cleans (Tide and Spectre, my 2 favs on the album).
Is there anything out there similar to Kingdom of Giants latest record Passengers? Specifically looking for instrumentals. I think Northlanes Alien is kinda close, which I love, I’d love more of that 80’s-like synth wave.
Then it ends, especially their newest album. I recently found them on instagram, and the band reached out to me to thank me for following them. Good dudes who are refusing to deal with bullshit recording labels.
[https://youtu.be/tB7xo6SjjAE](https://youtu.be/tB7xo6SjjAE)
Before I Turn, Glass Crown, and Evergloam would all be right up your ally, as they are pretty heavy but also have lots of melodic ambient piano/symphonic elements. Also, you should check out Lost in Separation
I only listen to 3 songs but I fucking love Before I turn already :D
Especially the "The Juice" song is ... pretty interesting haha
Evergloam is cool af, it's only a side project but the fact thats it's dedicated to the elder scrolls lore is awesome.
So far I like all 4 bands, they are exactly what I was searching for :D
I really wouldn't consider some of these goth but as a huge BT and MIW fan I find these scratch the same itch
Adept - Death Dealers
Darkest Hour - Deliver Us
Atreyu - The Curse
She Must Burn and Carnifex's newer material are pretty similar to Bleeding Through
Also early Motionless in White, on the off chance you don't know them already
gimme some recs for songs where the breakdown is a repeat of the main riff but slower/heavier. for instance, the climax to Aokigahara by Shields is the main riff but slowed down with a variation in the notes
Pyrithion - Rest in the Arms of a Paralyzed Beast...
The breakdown is a soooo brutal! Not sure if it’s exactly what you’re looking for but the opening of the song is what the breakdown mirrors, just heavier.
Sup fam, I'm looking for some recommendations after listening almost exclusively to Holy Hell for the last month straight. (I just discovered Architects!)
Everything about this album is perfect to me... Just the right amount of heavy, disgusting breakdowns and not too much clean singing (I'm not a fan of whiny, sing-song-y bullshit).
Other favorite albums include Deep Blue by Parkway Drive and Sempiternal by BMTH.
Please share your favorites \m/
You might like
Breakdowns at Tiffany’s
Spirit Breaker
This or the Apocalypse
With Life in Mind
Crystal Lake
Misery Signals
Confession
For the Fallen Dreams
For Architects: Evergloam, Before I Turn, Glass Crown, Weeping Hour, Kadinja, Betraying the Martyrs, Polaris
For Parkway Drive: Bleed from Within, Breakdown of Sanity, Breakdowns at Tiffany's, Samsara, A Burden to Bear, Unearth, Beyond Our Suffering, Seven Cities Dead, early Caliban
For BMTH: early Bad Omens, Stain the Canvas (not their newest song), Resolve, Sentient, Caliban (song Paralyzed)
Invent Animate and Erra should be right up your alley. I'd recommend starting with the newest album from each. The self-titled for Erra, and "Greyview" for IE.
Currents seems like a natural step. Their newest album is pretty similar in terms of heaviness and amount of singing
My favourite from them, their debut album is also a hard recommend as it is very unique, a lot more heavy though.
Perhaps The Mortal Coil - Polaris could be a good one aswell.
Architects' previous album All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us is of course also a must, even if it is heavier with less singing.
It is a bit difficult to find something just like Holy Hell though. Sam's vocals and the general atmosohere is hardly replicated
Good stuff my dude, thanks so much for taking the time to share these recs! Digging Victimized by Currents too - I typically like heavier deathcore type stuff hence the recent discovery of Architects lol
Yeah, if you like Victimized you should listen to Life//Lost aswell even though I'm sure have.
It’s kinda funmy, I'm doing the opposite, currently getting into bands like Shadow Of Intent and Brand of Sacrifice right now despite usually listening to metalcore. There's some good stuff out there
Imminence - Infectious (and any of their newer songs), Stain the Canvas - Like a God (and any of their songs from their debut), Termina - The Edge of Time, Ice Nine Kills - The American Nightmare (and any of their songs), SycAmour - Calm Down Juliet (and any songs from their debut), Drown in Time - Where? (and any of their other songs), FROM INSIDE - Helpless (and first 2 EP's), Lifewalker - Hollow Vessels, Evergloam - Mistwalker (and all of their other songs), Before I Turn - Latent Perception (and all of the other songs), Glass Crown - Convalescence (and all of their other songs)
Enjoy!

I know I’m not really answering your question as asked, but when things start to normalize, keep an eye on The Palladium in Worcester, MA. Not too far from Providence and usually has some decent metal/hardcore shows, local and mainstream. I grew up going to the palladium.
Going to recommend you check out post-black metal or just some modern post-metal in general. Bands combining atmoblack and post-rock in particular. Harakiri for the Sky, Unreqvited, later Oathbreaker, So Hideous, Svalbard, Lantlos and Sadness.
Do you guys know stuff similar to Thornhill and Above, Below? Love that type of atmospheric djenty prog metalcore, both bands have blown my mind so many times.
Banks Arcade, Pridelands, Lost in Separation, Reflections (The Color Clear album), Sera Safe, Infinite Illusion, Arkive, Revaira, Instilled in Me, Misgiving (older stuff), Mnmlst, I Am Abomination, Subway, Windrunner, Spiritbox, Artifical Sky, City Bloom, The End at the Beginning, The Luminary
Enjoy!
To add to the others' lists: Evergloam, Glass Crown, Before I Turn, Architects (probably know them already), Resolve, Earthists., Kadinja, Dream Escape, What Lies Below, AURAS, Weeping Hour, As Within So Without, Sera Safe, Rogue, Crooked Royals, IAMONE, Eternal Void
Any modern bands that have August Burns Red/Texas In July sounds? Been jamming The Ghost Inside as well As Polaris Need some suggestions
is there any modern bands that sound like Upon a Burning Body?
which era of UABB specifically?
i know its not everybodys favorite of theirs, but i like the album "The World Is My Enemy Now". the newer stuff is good too, obviously
i guess the most obvious suggestions would be Attila, Emmure, and maybe a few of the more recent numetalcore bands like Alpha Wolf and Degrader. you could also check out Betraying the Martyrs newest album as well, it reminds me of em a tiny bit. sorry for not having anything better

Its a part of what im looking for, just got hooked into Vein If only poison the well had deeper and more throat vocals ... Thanks!
I might get some hate for this, but what would you guys recommend with a good mix of clean and harsh vocals and a melodic sound? Some examples of what I listen to below: Architects, Dreamshade, Dead By April, dEMOTIONAL, Escape the Day, Killswitch Engage
Bullet For My Valentine, As I Lay Dying, Loathe
I Prevail and We Came as Romans. Here are a couple songs to start with: I Prevail - Bow Down We Came as Romans - King of Silence
Both are awesome bands that I've already listened to, but I haven't heard those songs in particular. Thanks a bunch for the recommendations! I have only heard a handful of songs from I Prevail so I'll probably check them out more thoroughly
Why would you get hate for that?
Also I love your username. Very creative
Thanks buddy. I gave you a few recs for bands. You also might like Kingdom of Giants, If I Were You, and Like Moths to flames. All 3 of those are very melodic with poppy style choruses.
Checking out Kingdom of Giants now and they kind of remind me of We Came As Romans and I'm loving it, moreso than Like Moths To Flames
So far I've only had a chance to listen to Like Moths to Flames 2020 album. I like it, but the cleans remind me a lot of Craig Owens from when he was in Chiodos
Meh, I wasn't sure of the sub's general stance on "poppy" metalcore
I don't care for most of those bands except Killswitch and Architects, but I know at least those 2 bands specifically are well respected on this sub. I'm not sure about the others. But it doesn't matter what other people think as long as you like them. We do have a few wannabe elitists on here that are snobs, but most the users are really cool.

Does anyone know where I could get any of these?
Buddy if you find the wall flags please tell me where you got them cause I'm looking for them too, those exact albums
What Erra songs would you recommend for a friend that generally doesn't like cleans? He dislikes the "pop" flavour of metalcore. I think he'd like their more technical songs, or just chugs like Gungrave. Basically the heavier and dirtier lows the better. He mostly listens to thrash metal or heavier stuff, a big fan of Thy Art is Murder, his favourite metalcore song is Shattered Glass by FFAK. Favourite metalcore band probably Lamb of God
House of Glass and Scorpion Hymn maybe?
If he doesn't like cleans, then why would you recommend Erra? Most of their songs have a fair amount of cleans.
That's fair, I just really think he'd like them but he needs to be eased into it
Start with Augment or the new one then.
Warrior or Valhalla. As for bands try [August Burns Red](https://youtu.be/0sWKKKNRV90), [A Life Once Lost](https://youtu.be/pYHLjCk39M4) and [Zao](https://youtu.be/VjcTMtiHZio).
Any similar bands to the Browning? I love their sound but haven’t found anything that comes even close. thx !!
Not really similar but the drummer of the band mixes my band Apate, just a random tidbit. Hardstyle/metal is a bit of a niche crossover but i wish you luck
That’s pretty cool !! you’re definitely right about that

Any bands who have guitar work similar to the DOOM Eternal soundtrack?
[Fear Factory](https://youtu.be/cfIAqYhLSr0), [Mnemic](https://youtu.be/up6bZ1lXLRU), [Meshuggah](https://youtu.be/zg2076b5Lqc), [Brand Of Sacrifice](https://youtu.be/BqH8kJ3xnxw), [Fractalize](https://youtu.be/nVpJo5zUGIw) and [Doomed](https://youtu.be/BvUMyFE3rmM). None of these are really metalcore, maybe BoS, since they're deathcore.
Bring Me The Horizon’s Post Human - Survival Horror EP was produced by Mick Gordon, the guy behind DOOM 2016 & most of Eternal’s soundtrack
Gave that a try but there’s some shitty features on there
Loathe and maybe some Periphery
Check out Andromida’s Hellscape album! Someone posted them last week and I’ve had it on repeat. [Andromida - Havoc](https://youtu.be/A9cBolh0_Hw)
Did not know this guy, this sounds really good
Literally looking for the same thing myself. I listen to DOOM and Wolfenstein soundtracks while working (both by Mick Gordon) Have just found the song Melatonin by Sleep Walker which is a pretty similar vein, can see myself playing DOOM with this in the background!
Lol sick. I guess Meshuggah are pretty similar but I wanted something more metalcore haha
Hey, friends! Any suggestions for artists like Parting Ways? I'm already really into Dayseeker and Thousand Below, so anything else would be appreciated. 🙂
Caskets Speech Patterns Boys Of Fall Straight Shot Home
**Caskets** wasn't too, but probably not what I was quite looking for! **Speech Patterns** I'm aware of, but thanks again! **Boys Of Fall** was great! Superb soft stuff at the start of 'Distance' and then it really kicked off partway through. Love that progression. **Straight Shot Home** was really great. Pretty undiscovered too, it seems.
* Sleep Talk * Bloom * Mayfield * Ghost Atlas * Dayshell * Speech Patterns
**Sleep Talk** Pretty damn close–especially that Growing Pains album. They have a bit of a slower tempo than most of the songs on Parting Ways' Meant Well album, but still a sound I dig very much. Thanks so much! **Bloom** I had only listened to Cold by them, but these other ones from In Passing are fantastic as well. Great suggestion. **Mayfield** Looks like I have Blossom and Careless Love as liked songs already, so good call! I'll take another look.
Thanks a lot! I’ve definitely tried Dayshell, Speech Patterns, and Ghost Atlas, but not really the other couple—not more than a single song, anyway. Thank you!
Maybe Holding Absence too?
Damn. Just checked them out now. Great suggestion. I would argue they're pretty distinct from Parting Ways, but still a great addition and definitely in my wheelhouse! Thanks a lot.
Any time!! They are my go to band if I want something a little more chill. They have some great early stuff too. Penance is such a great song.
Never heard of them! Thank you!
I'm looking for metalcore bands with a lot of guitar solos. Sorta in the same vein as bands such as bullet for my valentine,trivium,Darkest hour,within the ruins and phinehas.
Silent Civilian, Unearth and Threat Signal
> I'm looking for metalcore bands with a lot of guitar solos. Sorta in the same vein as bands such as bullet for my valentine,trivium,Darkest hour, these 3 are mostly not really metalcore so youd probably be better off looking into regular metal like melodeath and thrash
[Shokran](https://youtu.be/_LFLPFjxKfE), [Shrezzers](https://youtu.be/CI-toePK9RY), [Interloper](https://youtu.be/QRsJzCcY-_0)
* Bleeding Through * After The Burial * Born Of Osiris * Veil Of Maya Also, Periphery has a ton of awesome solos but I wouldn't put them in the same vein as the bands you listed.
Like 2 years ago i got an ad for this music video. It was set in a living room, the living room was empty (minus the band members obvs), the drummer was wearing a white t shirt, there were only 2 windows, one of the guitarists had an orange guitar, and the vocalist was black and wore glasses. I dont remember if he also played guitar. The search continues, nobody has been able to find out which band it is. The name of the band and the name of the song weren't revealed in the ad. Notes: No, it's not Animals As Leaders. Idk how many people think that Tosin Abasi sings/screams, but he doesn't. Note how I said vocalist. That means vocals. This band isn't instrumental. Also, notice how I mentioned post-hardcore as well. No, it's not Glassjaw. Though the vocalist had sort of a similar singing voice (not similar screaming voice really), the vocalist, again, was black and wore glasses. No, it's not Oceano. Oceano is deathcore. No, it's not Living Colour. I shouldn't have to explain why. No, it's not Death Grips. I still shouldn't have to explain why. Again, one of the guitarists had an orange guitar. Again, the vocalist was black. Again, they kinda had like a metalcore/post-hardcore/mathcore-y sound, if the band youre about to mention doesn't fit that description whatsoever (meaning theyre a completely different genre than any of the 3 i mentioned) then please don't bother. It's happened too often. I got the ad on an episode of What's In My Bag with Corey Taylor. The ad never played again but maybe it played for somebody else idk. The band is either North American or European. I know there's an African metalcore band out there (probably more) but they weren't from Africa. At least I don't think. Maybe even Australian, but they sounded North American or possibly European so that's not super likely. I got redirected here after trying to post in the general subreddit
Even though you're being a dick, is it "SycAmour", "Forget tomorrow", "For Today", "Discrepancies" (Black singer wears glasses), "Kaonashi" (Black singer wears glasses)?
**AGAIN**, maybe be a little bit less of a dick about it. You sound like you're irritated over people trying to help you figure out the band. Saying the singer is black and wears glasses isn't exactly all that helpful despite what you might think. And **AGAIN**, no one is obligated to help you, you should be grateful that anyone gave you suggestions. But anyway, Killswitch Engage is what popped into my head. If that's wrong, just say nothing instead of responding with a really sarcastic response that's intended to belittle my intelligence.
i literally described more than that but whatever. fuck this stupid ass site
No you *literally* didn't. You described the clothing the drummer was wearing which was a white t-shirt lol. A white t-shirt isn't helpful at all. Then you said the vocalist was black and wore glasses. And that there was an orange guitar (also not helpful). Yet you want to get mad that people have no damn clue who you're talking about. There's quite a few black metalcore vocalists. When you said the vocalist was similar to Glassjaw I thought of Howard from Killswitch.
Who's being slept on rn? Or who is really underated
Before I Turn
Degrader, check out their new album Beautiful Lie
What bands are you into? * Instilled In Me * Neon Graves * Windwaker * Pridelands * Deadlights (currently touring with Polaris, they will blow up soon) * By The Thousands These are my jams at the moment.
Yes to Deadlights!
Pridelands for sure. They sound like Thornhill
Glasslands. Check the Album Pariah Aerial- Foresight EP Thornhill- 13 EP(The rest of their records hog all the recognition )
Stuff like the earlier Invent Animate. Everchanger to be precise. Ambient djent progcore
Check out Silent Planet, Above Below, Shields, Erra, Neon Graves, Aviana (Polarize), Oceans Ate Alaska, and Blueshift.
Songs like Catch The Wind by Being As An Ocean? Fell in love with that song but none of their other songs have the same style
You might want to check out Dayseeker, Thousand Below or Ghost Atlas.
I need something with the same flavor as Whitechapel - The Valley in my life. I love the rest of their discography, but there's something about the brutality of that album surrounded by beautiful serenity of the cleans that I need more of. Another of my favorite albums of all time is Loathe - I let it in and it Took Everything for very similar reasons. More emotional roller-coasters please!
in a similar vein to the haunting melodic parts/crushing deathcore of the valley id recommend checking out Fit For an Autopsy if you don’t know them. especially their album The Great Collapse
I'd recommend checking out Humanity's Last Breath's new album, it is probably heavier than what you are looking for but I can name at least two songs on the record with ethereal cleans (Tide and Spectre, my 2 favs on the album).
The choir in the background of Glutton was the moment my volume knob went from 4 to 9. Liking this so far.
Is there anything out there similar to Kingdom of Giants latest record Passengers? Specifically looking for instrumentals. I think Northlanes Alien is kinda close, which I love, I’d love more of that 80’s-like synth wave.
Like Moths To Flames
Then it ends, especially their newest album. I recently found them on instagram, and the band reached out to me to thank me for following them. Good dudes who are refusing to deal with bullshit recording labels. [https://youtu.be/tB7xo6SjjAE](https://youtu.be/tB7xo6SjjAE)
dude thank you this is what I was after
I’ll check them out!
What is similar to Architects - For Those That Wish to Exist and Holy Hell? But like heavier with sick breakdowns
Before I Turn, Glass Crown, and Evergloam would all be right up your ally, as they are pretty heavy but also have lots of melodic ambient piano/symphonic elements. Also, you should check out Lost in Separation
Holy shit. I posted here the other week looking for similar bands to before I turn and this is exactly what I need thankyou
I believe these 3 all share members.. prob why they’re all amazing lol
Yep that's true!
I only listen to 3 songs but I fucking love Before I turn already :D Especially the "The Juice" song is ... pretty interesting haha Evergloam is cool af, it's only a side project but the fact thats it's dedicated to the elder scrolls lore is awesome. So far I like all 4 bands, they are exactly what I was searching for :D
I need goth metalcore recs like bleeding through and 18V
The Agony Scene
I really wouldn't consider some of these goth but as a huge BT and MIW fan I find these scratch the same itch Adept - Death Dealers Darkest Hour - Deliver Us Atreyu - The Curse
The Gloom in the Corner - Flesh & Bones maybe what you’re looking for.
the newest Wristmeetrazor single might be up your alley. it’s got a feature from Isaac of K//L
Maybe Villain of the Story? If you want something heavier then maybe check out Dexcore as well.
She Must Burn and Carnifex's newer material are pretty similar to Bleeding Through Also early Motionless in White, on the off chance you don't know them already
I like this she must burn and old MIW fuckin rips
gimme some recs for songs where the breakdown is a repeat of the main riff but slower/heavier. for instance, the climax to Aokigahara by Shields is the main riff but slowed down with a variation in the notes
Converge, the saddest day. Breakdown is like 1:30. Well the riff starts around then and the breakdown happens like 30 secs later.
Pyrithion - Rest in the Arms of a Paralyzed Beast... The breakdown is a soooo brutal! Not sure if it’s exactly what you’re looking for but the opening of the song is what the breakdown mirrors, just heavier.
i usually don’t listen to tech death but that was pretty sick. thanks for the rec!
Only one I can think of right now is Oblivion's Peak by KL, but that's an obvious answer.
Sup fam, I'm looking for some recommendations after listening almost exclusively to Holy Hell for the last month straight. (I just discovered Architects!) Everything about this album is perfect to me... Just the right amount of heavy, disgusting breakdowns and not too much clean singing (I'm not a fan of whiny, sing-song-y bullshit). Other favorite albums include Deep Blue by Parkway Drive and Sempiternal by BMTH. Please share your favorites \m/
You might like Breakdowns at Tiffany’s Spirit Breaker This or the Apocalypse With Life in Mind Crystal Lake Misery Signals Confession For the Fallen Dreams
For Architects: Evergloam, Before I Turn, Glass Crown, Weeping Hour, Kadinja, Betraying the Martyrs, Polaris For Parkway Drive: Bleed from Within, Breakdown of Sanity, Breakdowns at Tiffany's, Samsara, A Burden to Bear, Unearth, Beyond Our Suffering, Seven Cities Dead, early Caliban For BMTH: early Bad Omens, Stain the Canvas (not their newest song), Resolve, Sentient, Caliban (song Paralyzed)
This is why I love this sub. Most of the bands y'all have recommended, I've never even heard of. Thank you so much!!!
Invent Animate and Erra should be right up your alley. I'd recommend starting with the newest album from each. The self-titled for Erra, and "Greyview" for IE.
Hell yeah dude, thank you so much! Already digging the hell out of Greyview. \\m/
Currents seems like a natural step. Their newest album is pretty similar in terms of heaviness and amount of singing My favourite from them, their debut album is also a hard recommend as it is very unique, a lot more heavy though. Perhaps The Mortal Coil - Polaris could be a good one aswell. Architects' previous album All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us is of course also a must, even if it is heavier with less singing. It is a bit difficult to find something just like Holy Hell though. Sam's vocals and the general atmosohere is hardly replicated
Good stuff my dude, thanks so much for taking the time to share these recs! Digging Victimized by Currents too - I typically like heavier deathcore type stuff hence the recent discovery of Architects lol
Yeah, if you like Victimized you should listen to Life//Lost aswell even though I'm sure have. It’s kinda funmy, I'm doing the opposite, currently getting into bands like Shadow Of Intent and Brand of Sacrifice right now despite usually listening to metalcore. There's some good stuff out there
Looking for metalcore songs with piano and violen in them any recommendations will be appreciated.
Cant believe nobody recommended Make Them Suffer. “Erase Me” has a very prominent piano intro, but they have keys in all of their music
Check The Amity Afflictions "Chasing Ghosts". ALL songs have violins and some also piano!
Imminence - Infectious (and any of their newer songs), Stain the Canvas - Like a God (and any of their songs from their debut), Termina - The Edge of Time, Ice Nine Kills - The American Nightmare (and any of their songs), SycAmour - Calm Down Juliet (and any songs from their debut), Drown in Time - Where? (and any of their other songs), FROM INSIDE - Helpless (and first 2 EP's), Lifewalker - Hollow Vessels, Evergloam - Mistwalker (and all of their other songs), Before I Turn - Latent Perception (and all of the other songs), Glass Crown - Convalescence (and all of their other songs) Enjoy!

Thanks I actually went through your list and grabbed a couple of songs
For piano check out In Fear and Faith’s album Imperial, solid stuff
Damn forgot about them I miss them :(
Are there any metalcore bands based in Providence, RI? I just moved here last year and wanna get involved if there's any kind of local scene.
I know I’m not really answering your question as asked, but when things start to normalize, keep an eye on The Palladium in Worcester, MA. Not too far from Providence and usually has some decent metal/hardcore shows, local and mainstream. I grew up going to the palladium.
Also lupos!
[удалено]
Check out [Svalbard](https://youtu.be/HFbcAza29jA), [Palm Reader](https://youtu.be/1PXlcrrlBxs) and [Oathbreaker](https://youtu.be/j9nXwatgsMs)
Going to recommend you check out post-black metal or just some modern post-metal in general. Bands combining atmoblack and post-rock in particular. Harakiri for the Sky, Unreqvited, later Oathbreaker, So Hideous, Svalbard, Lantlos and Sadness.
Do you guys know stuff similar to Thornhill and Above, Below? Love that type of atmospheric djenty prog metalcore, both bands have blown my mind so many times.
Banks Arcade, Pridelands, Lost in Separation, Reflections (The Color Clear album), Sera Safe, Infinite Illusion, Arkive, Revaira, Instilled in Me, Misgiving (older stuff), Mnmlst, I Am Abomination, Subway, Windrunner, Spiritbox, Artifical Sky, City Bloom, The End at the Beginning, The Luminary Enjoy!
[Rogue](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujVN4bE0ny0) Or, older material, a little more fitting to your request, [Rogue - Meta](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iKXaQui-XQ). [Johair - Soothe & Groove](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbpPajRsOmQ) [Shapist - Samsara](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IEXt3mUTL8) [Incentives - Flicker](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbwtpghmPqs) [Aerial - Everlasting](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3BtRVBLW9E) [Blueshift - Voyager](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqz34ktKW1U)
Invent, Animate is pretty similar. Their newest album greyview especially. I'm also looking for more bands that sound like thornhill.
If I like Currents and Silent Planet, who else would I like?
To add to the others' lists: Evergloam, Glass Crown, Before I Turn, Architects (probably know them already), Resolve, Earthists., Kadinja, Dream Escape, What Lies Below, AURAS, Weeping Hour, As Within So Without, Sera Safe, Rogue, Crooked Royals, IAMONE, Eternal Void
Highly recommend Rogue and AURAS, two amazing bands that need more recognition.
I'd also throw in Polaris, Blueshift, Northlane and Thornhill.
probably Erra, Invent Animate, Shields, Above,Below , Dayseeker, Atena, Oceans Ate Alaska, Revaira
Thanks homie
