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

[The Batlord]

Forgot about this band until plug, but Canephora are ****ing insane. I guess they're mathcore, but with an almost black metal rawness and intensity. They were ****ing brutal as ****, throwing in blastbeats to go along with the breakdowns, and their vocalist sounds like he's being murdered. And they're a hometown band to boot. Too bad their only official release is a 7", but I tracked down a download with that and three other songs that, aside from a demo that's impossible to find anywhere on the internet, is all they ever did as far as I know. But those five songs are absolutely required listening for any fans of early Converge (they kick their ass as far as intensity goes as far as I'm concerned).

These are the only two of their videos I can find on Youtube.
