What are the bands that this thread doesn't like very much? Lurking around and it seems Parkway Drive isn't popular (I tried listening to them and they didn't really catch my interest)... FFDP too?

I haven't really developed much of a taste for the genre yet.

Everyone in this thread will absolutely HATE FFDP.

With that said, I mostly listened to your standard hard rock (buttrock/dadrock as often mentioned here) but over the past few months I've been listening to more metalcore. Over the past week I pretty much went through this entire thread (you guys are insane) and made a big list of stuff to sample. I'll admit I still can't get into harsh vocals.

Here is some of the stuff I've liked and will probably be met with mixed reviews in this thread:
Architects
Polaris - My personal favorite
Bring Me The Horizon
While She Sleeps
Betraying the Martyrs
We Came As Romans
Code Orange
Parkway Drive
Vanna
August Burns Red
The Dillinger Escape Plan

Here's the stuff I haven't got to yet:
Unearth
Palm Reader
Northlane
Miss May I
Erra
Counterparts
Oceans Ate Alaska
Wage War
Ice Kills Nine

Thanks for all the info guys, I'll be sure to add that stuff to my list.

Not sure why I missed Every Time I Die, but yeah, definitely digging them.

can't get into harsh vocals, but Polaris is a favorite :confused:

kidding aside that's a pretty good list.i don't listen to a lot of those bands regularly but they certainly fit in here

also it's Ice Nine Kills not Ice Kills Nine :v:, their latest one Every Trick in the Book seems like it'd be right up your alley given the rest of your list. You'd probably also like Darkest Hour's self-titled from a few years ago, though I think I'm alone in this thread loving that record.

For harsher stuff, you should absolutely get into Unearth next, particularly Watchers of Rule and The Oncoming Storm as those are incredible, and then everything else Darkest Hour has done. Darkest Hour's Undoing Ruin is considered by many to be the -core magnum opus and I can't say I disagree

I guess by harsh I meant the really growley stuff like Between The Buried and Me. The music is great, but the vocals kill it for me.

New BMTH song that was almost a...........Limp Bizkit song.....and features Dani Filth.......

quote:

Over the weekend, fans were treated to a brand new song from Bring Me the Horizon called "Wonderful Life" that included a guest turn by Cradle of Filth's Dani Filth. However, according to singer Oli Sykes, the track almost ended up without either his band or Filth involved at all. At one point, the song was intended to go to Limp Bizkit.

Appearing on BBC Radio 1's Rock Show With Daniel P. Carter, Sykes revealed that the track evolved out of failed writing sessions for Limp Bizkit's next record.

"Last year, me and Jordan [Fish] went and worked with Fred Durst on a Limp Bizkit album. It just didn’t work out, to be honest. He just didn’t show up most of the time," recalled the vocalist. "Lovely guy, but I don’t think he was ready to make an album. I think he was pushed into it a bit, like, his managers and people said ‘These are the guys you want to work with.’ So we gave him all these ideas and I mean it was just bad from day one, to be honest."

Sykes stated that the origins of "Wonderful Life" came from those sessions, explaining, “It’s one of them things, looking back, where it wasn’t meant to be. One good thing came out of it: me and Jordan wrote this riff and I one day decided the tempo and key matched almost perfectly with the song. So we de-Bizkit‘d it a bit, and it ended up sounding pretty sick.”

While we continue to wait for a new Limp Bizkit album, Sykes, Fish and the rest of Bring Me the Horizon have powered through the writing and recording of their next release. The Amo album is set for a Jan. 11 street date.

Just got The Mortal Coil on vinyl. Owns.

I ordered some Architects Holy Hell vinyl bundle. They shipped it here to the US from Germany, messed my address up and it went back to Germany. I'm sad about it, been waiting over a month for it.

Spotify owns and I can't be bothered using any other service.

I guess I buy my music from Amazon but then I dump that on to a USB stick and don't really use the Amazon interface.

For a pure 100% pop album I don't mind it. I was hoping it would be more like That's the Spirit but woo boy, it's not.

I was thinking the same thing. It's too soon for them to work on a new album, no?

They must've thought it was too good not to put out and they were right.
