Aww shi, new Napoleon coming on November 2nd. Their last one, Newborn Mind, went severely overlooked and underrated. It was #7 on my 2016 top ten, and I saw almost no love for it. Don't sleep on this new one, broys. First single is up:

Yeah they went on hiatus after Dormant Heart when Josh first started filling in with Architects. When he joined full time they said Sylosis would continue and there’d be a new album this year, but there hasn’t been a single word since then so... yeah.

I was gonna go to the Orlando show of that but I guess it sold out somehow and resell tickets are going for $92 so lol gently caress that

Almost worth it for Polaris and ABR but gently caress Parkway Drive and apparently the singer from TDWP sounds terrible nowadays

:lol: I wasn't planning to stay for Parkway Drive anyway since I'll have to drive back to Phoenix. Totally going for ABR and Polaris. TDWP is a bonus, but still sucks about their lead singer.

Chelsea Grin is a band I've struggled with liking over the years bc deathcore never had a good reputation but eventually I decided idgaf bc CG are super fun and arguably one of the best bands creating that style of music.

it's a bummer the main singer dude is gone and I think Eternal Nightmare pales in comparison to Self Inflicted and Ashes to Ashes (their absolute best album), but it's still fun except for the songs that obviously want to be some weird nu-nu-metal/Emmure poo poo

Yeah this. He is so loving good at what he does, it’s a shame that he went full chud (and in the process ruined ATR). I’ll have to listen to this new joint and see what it’s like.

This Darkened Heart and the Fall of Ideals. The latter being what a lot of people consider an album for the Mt Rushmore of metalcore. They had a couple decent records after it before quickly devolving into a Five Finger Death Punch cover band.

I'd be a lying piece of poo poo if I said I never hosed with all that remains. I don't think they were ever close to being as good as unearth, Killswitch, and as I lay dying, but they def did pave the way for that sound. the most credit Phil gets from me is singing on the very first Shadows Fall release and Brian Fair went on to bring that band to great success.

Of One Blood is such an amazing record forget anything ATR ever put out and just listen to that instead

I'm pretty positive that ATR was my first exposure to metalcore through the song they had in guitar hero

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IoeH2atHg0

up till then I was listening to proggy stuff like Dream Theater and more standard metal stuff like Children of Bodom (who still kick rear end) and whatnot.

Oh yeah and one of my frat brothers was a huge August Burns Red fan for like, their first album or two and few EPs.

Unearth's The Oncoming Storm, ATR's Fall of Ideals, and Darkest Hour's Undoing Ruin are the best 3 core albums of that era

I don't have any idea how to rank the 3 of them because they're all that good

ShoogaSlim posted:

Their last 2 were decent departures from their earlier stuff but they still sound like ABR so YMMV I guess

I didn't much like Phantom Anthem at first listen because it sounded too much like the one before it, but I came around on it eventually. Messengers probably still the best one tho
