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

Sounds very interesting, I've been into metalcore for several months already. The bands I've had the chance to listen to are mostly Killswitch Engage and As I Lay Dying, other than that I still have many other bands around to spend more time listening to their songs and stuff.

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

You're big on really primal, guttural screams? Well. Demon Hunter has a lot of that, even their newer material. They have clean vocals too, so not sure you would care for that or not. And they are a Christian Metal band, so if you aren't big on listening to religious bands, let me know and I won't recommend them.

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.

That doesn't make any sense. You've already recommended them. If he doesn't like religious bands why should he need you to unrecommend them just so he won't listen to them? Do you have mind control powers or something?

You never know Batty. I might.

He should check out Diesel King. Sort of sludgy death metal.
