Dave Knudson is such a loving rock star I'm surprised it took this long - that guy loving loves being up on stage.

New Architects is out. Most people should just skip to the last track and then go listen to old stuff.

Jesus Christ what the gently caress happened to Architects?? I see the lane they’ve chosen and I get wanting to change it up, but they used to be so goddamn heavy, that’s all I can think about when I hear the new stuff. Kinda like with PWD. Also, how long have We Came As Roman’s been Linkin Park with breakdowns? I don’t hate this at all lol. Vocalist is unbelievably Chester influenced. “One More Day” came on my Spotify release radar and I listened to it like three times before just loading up the whole new record. I am a basic bitch. I never listened to a lot of WCAR so if they went full Architects it’s not bothering me Wamsutta fucked around with this message at 10:56 on Oct 21, 2022 |

I try to avoid social media these days, but in my experience a LOT of metal/hardcore fans on- and offline are pretty uncritically supportive of anything their favourite band says or does. Bands like Parkway Drive, Wage War, and especially BMTH (to the point where they're co-headlining with Arctic Monkeys) are doing complete Ship of Theseus replacements of their sounds, and it's just called "evolving". Tim Lambesis can try and murder as many women as he likes as long as AILD keep writing breakdowns. The fact that the same treatment seemingly isn't extended to a band with as much media and public goodwill behind them as Architects speaks volumes about how massively they've poo poo the bed Sam Carter posted:People nowadays are so entitled.

yeah I've never really heard criticism of them outside of this thread, even MetalSucks who can be pretty bitchy were like "not really my thing but pretty good for what it is" on the last one, IIRC ditto the DJs on the local metal station, they seem to love all the new Parkway and Architects stuff

lmao architects i can't stop laughing at them. Congrats on your arena rock success I guess? 2016: Another faceless figure, an empty silhouette They'll line their pockets and leave us six feet deep in debt So cast your votes, watch them shed their skin Always out for blood, preying on the weak We can count on them to paint the future bleak But we're still standing by whilst they bleed us dry 2022: Be the change that you wanna see No, not like that It's a risk we can all agree gently caress the loving facts But it bleeds right in front of me We're under attack Yeah, we all know that these rights are holy this album absolutely sucks lmao Slotducks fucked around with this message at 14:39 on Oct 21, 2022 |

New video/track from Violent Answer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yb2Qr3Ug_M For whatever reason, I really love this band and hope they stick with it long enough to get some traction. Also, I'm realizing I never posted their second single, so here it is as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wl8xJlbT2rE In not -core releases some of y'all might/should dig, we've got two new tracks from He Is Legend: one with a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYSWW49q0Gw one without https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJ_ZQPwrtq0 very stoked for the full album (11/11) and a new track from The Plot In You, that I cannot get enough of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4dhmfxMmVc

Got hooked up with tickets and a vip wristband to see Knocked Loose at Red Rocks tonight. They were opening for a bunch of rappers and the venue is all stairs, so no mosh pits, but they killed it and it was rad as gently caress to see them play such an iconic venue.

ShoogaSlim posted:acacia strain and fit for an autopsy co-headline tour announced Yeah, last year. Those shows were a fuckin' blast and I highly doubt I'll ever have more fun at a TAS show, but that was also heavily due to the lineup being stacked (even if KK didn't make it to night 1) and the venue being tiny (and a 4min walk from my apartment)

lmao, I just got one of those "here are the upcoming shows in your area" email that called Counterparts "Countertops". Also I didn't realize that Dying Wish wasn't gonna be at the Denver tour date, so that's a bummer. New Sharptooth EP dropped yesterday and I really dig it. I know people have mixed opinions about the new vocalist, but I really dig her and the new tracks all go hard New single from The Undertaking! https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mokHuqmxfSg4ZAPtbQCcnOEm0qqV3zc7k&feature=share https://open.spotify.com/track/4RCUWOApudEQy7GtyM0xAp?si=ab42e987be4c460b

that sharptooth record is basically unlistenable as far as i'm concerned but i'm glad you enjoy it! easily my biggest disappointment of the year so far i'm extremely sad to find out they are basically burying all of the previous material and reset the band entirely, but there's no way the new vocalist can pull off those songs so probably for the best me, with awful taste: the new polyphia is actually cool and good

Yeah, I know I'm basically alone in preferring the new sound. But I also like her previous band, Backswing, so it's not a huge surprise. I really liked Clever Girl and was stoked when I learned that Travis Orbin was doing the drums for Transitional Forms, but then the album dropped and I just couldn't get into it. It's been awhile since I've listened to it, so maybe I should go back and give it another spin. edit: yeah, still does nothing for me XIII fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Nov 2, 2022 |

Yeah, I'm sorta in that boat too. Like, I will always play a new Oceano tape when it comes out, but I've never thought much about it beyond, "yep, that's more Oceano." They do what they do and they do it well, but I couldn't tell you two lyrics/riffs. Never seen em live, but would love to. Also, currently chilling between bands at the Varials / Boundaries / Orthodox show. Seems like everyone's merch is a swing and a miss, but learned that Boundaries tour in a different way spray painted (short) school bus, so that's rad

jesse seems like a perfect fit to collab with ABR but holy loving tap dancing jesus christ if that music video isnt the most cringe thing ive ever seen. the singer of ABR fake crying and screaming in that old actor guy's face while he pretends to sleep/be in a coma? have some god drat self awareness and get a more competent actor to play the part of the dramatic lead if you want anyone to take your "avant garde" heavy handed message seriously lololol and where's the fuckin breakdown?? 2/10 wasted opportunity and probably the worst music video ive ever seen

At first I was like oh he's talking to his dad lol. And yeah all the theatrics is very teenage christian trauma porn-esque. But then at the end I was like ohhh poo poo maybe he's screaming at his older self and then I was like oh gently caress that's so high right now. I am They should've done a lyric video instead because I don't know what's happening

i hadn't even considered that it might be his older self. its a fine concept despite being cliche. every metalcore weenie whines about his dad at some point, but yeah this is textbook why i try to avoid videos whenever possible. even if i like the song, every time i hear it i just think about the video and it ruins it for me.

Ya, that's why I usually try to link to the audio only or (if I gotta) lyric video versions of stuff on youtube, instead of posting the actual music videos.
