Metalcore in 2016

Maybe its because I grew up but I've noticed how cringy local metalcore bands are lately. Have they always been this way and I never noticed or is it a recent development? Pic related is a local metalcore vocalist's profile pic. He rants about how everyone is racist, cops are bad and socialism is good etc. etc.

Ahh metalcore, where grown up warped tour kids can still mosh to terrible music in a terrible way

>grown up
>metalcore
pick one

It's not just you. Back in the day when I first discovered that music could be free, I didn't care what it was, I downloaded it. After going through all that metalcore from back in the day, I don't want anything to do with it. I still keep a few guilty pleasures, but both local and popular metalcore bands are fucking horrible, OP.

Take memphis may fire for example, and how they make a song about fucking cyberbullying.

Lamb of God is great, and they're sort of considered metalcore

Some of these fucks are 24+. It's like they are stuck at a highschool state.

Converge is the only metalcore band worth giving a shit about desu.

I like parkway drive as well

For many people, yes.


But I'm a faggot and I still like Erra.

I don't agree, but converge is definitely the most artistically valuable metalcore band.

Invent, Animate is progressive metalcore at it's finest

My friends really like this band from my state called Old Wounds, they recently played Warped Tour. I honestly don't mind them. Thoughts?

Metalcore has always been a trash genre dude.

They seem like they'd be fun live(there are quite a not great "artists" who are fantastic performers,) get a 80s goth-y vibe from the clean singing.

what is zao

I don't like the band at all.
Vocalist looks like a woman.
Just listen to crust.

*there are quite a lot

Yeah they are cool live, I think the singing could be better.
What is trash
I fucking love crustpunk ty

metalcore has always been cringy, but its gotten worse over the years.

Kardashev is also pretty goddamn progressive for metalcore

(You)
homosexual (gay)

I'd recommend checking out the band Nails, then.

All in all, my number one quarrel with metalcore is how they try to just be pop. Just about all the song will be fucking boring, generic, and the same old metalcore crap, but oh my God the band will make sure the chorus is the cleanest most catchy thing they can think of, because a chorus is all you need to make a song.

Meh, that's okay with me

I've heard of Nails, their singer is a cunt and their new album reinvented bro-powerviolence. I did enjoy it tho desu lol

Haven't heard their new album, just Abandon all Life, and You Will Never Be One of Us

Their first record is incredible

Don't mind me, just posting the superior version of Converge for people who don't like whiny bitch vocals.

I've grown out of metalcore for the most part but try and show me a genre with more raw aggression and energy.

most generic metal comment ever.

>Who are Botch, carbomb, 7 angels 7 plagues, disembodied, bowels of Judas, Phoenix bodies, the sawtooth grin, the great redneck hope, the list literally could go on.

Nails are great But Dead In The Dirt did it waaaay better.

Power Electronics and other varying forms of Industrial.
