Music Banter - What Are You listening To V.III Metal!

new DEP is really cool. Been stoked since hearing about it, I loved One of Us is the Killer. This one isn't "more" experimental than any of their other albums, but there are a lot of experiments and risks that we haven't seen before. A lotta electronica influence

Sometimes I forget that Snapcase were so ****ing intense that they could light a match just by giving it the stinkeye. It's kinda weird to call them metalcore since they really don't sound like any other metalcore band. They sound more like post-hardcore or noise rock or something, but with a very heavy dose of mathcore. Or math rock so virulent that it might as well be. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have a page on Metal Archives, but they are far more worthy of headbanging than 99.9% of the bands on that site anyway.

I've never listened to them but this song is really badass (except for the interlude that's two minutes in, that was pretty disappointing).

God damn is this album continuing to kick my ass. I love that low rent production of 90s metalcore. Just makes everything more raw and in your ****ing face.

Thoroughly dense and crushing mathcore with a much sludgier production than your average math band. Old school metalcore is better than all other forms of metal and punk. Straight up.

This one wasn't that great though.

I expected t to be good but I didn't think it was gonna their best album. They haven't shrad this hard since Calculating Infinity, especially vocally. So you got that, and the out of the box experimentation is as prevalent and awesome as ever. I hope they like their high spot in my aoty list

Glad I'm not the only on here who enjoyed the new Dillinger album, I think with a little more time it could develop into one of my favourite releases from them. Shame to see them break up, but at least they went out at the top of their game.

This is what I've been cranking lately. It's not the most brutal metalcore, but I love how the band stay true to their hardcore sound. Also it's local so that makes it even better.
