Matt Heafy is an accomplished guitarist. But I agree that his screaming was a bit, eh, painful to listen to. He's better now when he does scream, he's learned some things. But I prefer his clean vocals. I was a little let down with Vengeance Falls, but I blame David Draiman for that more than the band.
Here's a few metalcore bands I dig, some could even be considered death metal: Caliban Any Given Day Amorphis (sort of progressive though) Darkest Hour dEMOTIONAL Heart Of A Coward Trivium More Than A Thousand My Dear Addiction The Sorrow The Unguided Deceptic Last edited by CoNtrivedNiHilism; 04-24-2015 at 12:44 PM. |

Secondly, Amorphis is in no way shape or form a metalcore band. I honestly have no earthly idea where you got that notion. They started out as a stone cold death metal band, and then transitioned to melodic death metal on their way to being a progressive metal band. From their first album, if you don't believe me.

I don't know why I lumped the best band on my list as a metalcore band either. So I've got no explanation there. Or maybe if I had to guess, they weren't supposed to be on the list. Badass song by the way. |

Whatever, it's not like I don't have Protest the Hero to give me the same thing.

I'm interested in the album they are allegedly self producing. I haven't read anything on if that was true, the self producing bit. But they should stop trying to fit a mold so they're always relevant. They were going to great places with Shogun. I want more of that, but with progression in their sound. I've always been a scrooge when it comes to Protest The Hero. Something about them pisses me off. |

Great band. I love that the singer isn't afraid to sound like a power metal vocalist, and the music is vastly more interesting than 99% of their "peers".

I could try getting over myself and just listen to them with an open mind, clear of judgement. EDIT: Getting the discography. Will be my listening material while at work tonight. Last edited by CoNtrivedNiHilism; 04-24-2015 at 01:52 PM. |

I'm currently trying to cover all the material AILD released during their activity time. After that I'm looking forward to listening to other metalcore bands but I have a few bands in mind like Caliban or Darkest Hour, also Trivium and All That Remains seem to be very good bands but for what I've listened in some of their songs their vocalists don't do guturals that much and that's a negative for me, I dunno. Your list looks very good, I'm actually gonna test a few songs of each band but what bands would you recommend me after finishing with As I Lay Dying? Thanks for reading |

Pretty much any band on my list will have the screams you want, especially Caliban and The Unguided, Any Given Day, While She Sleeps, At The Gates, Amorphis (early material mainly), August Burns Red, Every Time I Die, Living Sacrifice, Soilwork, War Of Ages, Whitechapel... The Batlord is a guy that will likely have more to recommend than I do. But I am pretty good at looking for what people are seeking. |
