No. Tried them. Boring. Parkway Drive is alright, but they just get so repetitive. Same thing I have against August Burns Red.
And how can you call my choices not prominent? By the time those three bands came on the scene, the genre was already established. Poison the Well and Killswitch are far more relevant than those bands as far as that kind of metalcore goes.
Also, I would shoot myself in the head before allowing Bullet for My ****ing Valentine anywhere near my list. I have no problem with generic melodic metalcore in theory, but that band is a crime against music.
Hell yeah! Unless you define metalcore by '00s standards and on. I don't see you complaining about Ringworm or Integrity.

Both are great, but seem to be held in equal enough esteem that a judgement call is acceptable. Brutal Truth upped the ante with
Need to Control. Straight up.

Awesome album, and it was actually on my original list, but it's overshadowed by more "evolved" grind, like Gridlink and Anaal Nathrakh, and I'd have to throw out Carcass to add them. I'd actually be perfectly willing to do this, but I already deep-sixed Napalm Death for Assuck and I can only leave out so many old school bands.

Extreme Noise Terror -(either Damage 387 or holocaust in my head) It would seem weird not to have them in there.

Again, I already threw out Napalm Death. If nobody has any objections to me throwing out Carcass, then I'd be perfectly happy to give the spot to something like Extreme Noise Terror, or maybe Magrudergrind or Nails. Or F
uck the Facts.
