The comparison to 80's glam and 90's nu metal is really an insult to bands like Protest the Hero, BTBAM, and Dillinger Escape Plan that really are some of the most technically accomplished bands in modern music. Not to mention Winston McCall from Parkway Drive's vocals could hang with any death metal vocalist i've heard. Also, any metal fan should take a listen to Alive or Just Breathing, the first release from Killswitch Engage with their original singer Jesse Leach. Metalcore haters might think twice about dismissing the genre after running through that record.
