The Batlord's Thread of Metalcore that Doesn't Suck but In Fact ****ing Rules

[The Batlord]

I've been kinda spamming this band for a while, but they deserve a shout out on this thread regardless. Stampin' Ground are the neanderthal beatdown-hardcore-meets-thrash band that I've been hoping to find ever since failing to find anything that could match up to Arkangel. They're not really that original, but they just do what they do better than pretty much anybody who isn't the aforementioned Arkangel.

Thuggish and brutal, these dudes just make me want to punch some poseur in the face. You want badass riffs? They're your band. A vicious singer spewing rage and hate? Bam. Breakdown porn that doesn't overstay its welcome like Hatebreed or Emmure? Dude, **** yeah. No frills, no post-hardcore artiness, no scene kid choruses, just pure aggression and testosterone. But hey, you could say the same thing about Slayer and Suffocation.
