I mean, its a metallic riff, but these guys have been playing extreme metal for a while and you have to try new things Converge has almost always used metallic riffs, they just used to be a bit more dark and brooding and generally harder than the one showcased in the new song. This just sounds really goofy and insincere until about 1:30 in...

They've been using the same types of riffs (not to be confused with the same riffs) for what, 6 albums now? Besides, it's only one song. I'll reserve my judgment for later.

There will be a ton of kids that will eat this poo poo up though just because it's Converge.

I guess, but it is just one song and I don't think it sounds all that unoriginal or anything. I guess it isn't breaking down musical genres but I don't want my Converge to always try and do that

Posted this in the metalcore thread but apparently it's more suitable here. Just finished mixing a demo with my new band which I suppose could be classed as hardcore. Probably for fans of Converge/Architects. I'd greatly appreciate some feedback from people who've been listening to the genre longer than I! Apologies about the crappy hosting. http://rapidshare.de/files/48158369/01_Dutch_Disease.mp3.html

Nah, it definitely fits in the metalcore thread. Or maybe just join a band that plays music like this instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDLKPqznMOU It's much better music. albear fucked around with this message at 08:56 on Aug 20, 2009 |

Any of you guys ever heard of Shere Khan? One of the kids i went to highschool with is brothers with the lead singer. I guess they are pretty good though, i really only care for this one song though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfa-jkMjzEk What do you all think?

It's like Terror but somehow worse. I love youth crew and more old school style stuff but honestly the only thing that comes to mind when I see that is "Chyeah brah!".

Idk you are clearly the "right" hardcore fan so any band I like is obviously lovely nah but seriously shere khan are pretty cool they are pretty closely connected to Black My Heart, who is not all that great but I have fond memories of jamming "thick as blood" also, I saw them one time at the Meridian in houston with COA and Fight Like Hell who honestly put on a much better show than BMH

The Bouncing Souls/Lifetime show was amazing. I've never been to a show that big without a barrier. The amount of kids stage diving was ridiculous. No one seemed to know how to catch them though so way too many people were dropped. The new Bouncing Souls songs sounded pretty good live. They're still doing that acoustic cover of Hybrid Moments though.

In the next 2 months I have these shows coming up, but I really doubt I can make it to ALL of them, so which ones would you recommend I absolutely must see? Avengers/Pansy Division Have Heart/Ceremony Dredg/Rx Bandits Bad Brains (are they still any good live? almost $30 worth good?) Dillinger 4/Riverboat Gamblers The Gaslight Anthem The Get Up Kids These Arms Are Snakes The Queers/TA80 The Jesus Lizard Strike Anywhere/Ruiner/Crime in Stereo Melt Banana AHHHH TOO MANY SHOWS IN TOO SHORT A TIME!

Man, that's a nice list. Got to agree with the 4 choices above me but also I had a really good time at a Gaslight Anthem show earlier this year, even if I did end up completely dicking up my finger. (fractured one joint, sprained the other, never healed right) I have tickets for the Flatliners, Frank Turner and Ghost Of A Thousand. Particularly amped about the Flatliners.

Really I probably should've just gone back and read the responses to that, but I forgot what story it was written in. I'm gonna be so broke these next few months, but its going to be so worth it.

What do you guys think of Modern Life is War? they are easily one of my favorite bands. They don't have a single song that i do not like and i listen to them all the loving time. I am trying to find some other bands that sound like them because they are broken up now and i will never get to hear any new songs  So i guess this post is sort of an interest check as well as looking for bands that are VERY similiar to MLIW. Outsiders baby!
