I'm prepared for the character assassination that could possibly come as a result of this recommendation, but here we go:

Apparently there is a movement within deathcore that is beginning to incorporate much more technical and progressive elements in its music than the trademark mindless, knuckle dragging breakdowns for which the genre is famous. There's a number of bands on a label called Sumerian Records that all have incredible talent and sound similar to the link above and yet have their own distinct sounds. I suppose the evolution within the genre could be likened to the birth of technical death metal in the 90's. The Meshuggah influence is pretty evident here, especially in the breakdowns (which are said to be played in rhythms of pi). So take a listen if you wish and respond!

I actually think it's great! Not necessarily because the music is spectacular (it is good not great, sounds pretty close to metalcore to me aside from vocals), but it is a fresh take on one of metal's worst genres. Finally deathcore without the monotonous breakdowns every three seconds like Emmure.

i don't think there's any basis for comparison but i'll bite

i have more Oasis than Offspring if that answers your query at all

I would take the first 2 Oasis albums over the entire Offspring discography.

Hey guys/girls. I'm lookin for some new songs to put on my ipod. I like bands like Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet For My Valentine, and All That Remains. If your into the same music and you know of bands and songs similar, then hit me up.

Unearth (start with The March album)
Killswitch Engage (their first album is easily the best but since you like A7X you would probably like the As Daylight Dies album)
As I Lay Dying (An Ocean Between Us album)

Every new/melodic metalcore band. They all sound the same.

Although I thought ABR's last album wasn't complete ****.
