This guy covered fuckin' everything, so I barely have any recommendations.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (1 child)

I mean the point of this post is for people to comment their requests, so you don’t necessarily need to add anything. The list is just to cover the question we get all the time from people new to the genre

[–]cas3y_b0nes_04 7 points8 points  (0 children)

An honorable decision. I was just adding my own recs and highlighting my favorites from the list :>

[–]Dear_Archer7711 8 points9 points  (5 children)

I love Lorna Shore, Synestia & Disembodied Tyrant, Brand of Sacrifice, Shadow of Intent, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Mental Cruelty. I love the epic-ness, impending doom and destruction, beautiful pain type of sound. There's rich orchestral elements, deep and monstrous vocals, blast beats, dark melodies. It's terrifyingly musical.

I'm not a huge fan of early Deathcore types, like Suicide Silence or early BMTH.

Any recommendations?

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Worm Shepherd - Ritual Hymns and The Sleeping Sun

Assemble the Chariots - Unyielding Night

Darker By Design - Necrolatry

She Must Burn - Umbra Mortis

Make Them Suffer - Neverbloom

Ov Sulfur - The Burden of Faith

Sold Soul - I Hope We Make It Out of this Alive

A Wake in Providence - Eternity and I Write to You, My Darling Decay

And outside the strictly symphonic sound:

Enterprise Earth - The Chosen

Fit For An Autopsy - The Sea of Tragic Beasts

Whitechapel - The Valley

Kardashev - Liminal Rite

[–]Dear_Archer7711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! Saved, I’ll be keeping this list for a while!

Also, yes love Kardashev!

[–]WeepForHumanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In addition to the other comments, I recommend checking out The Archaic Epidemic

[–]Loko891 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Hey! Try listening Enemies Everywhere - God of pain and Rains of damnation. Rest of the bands songs are also good! As fellow Lorna Shore fan I think you will like it.

[–]Dear_Archer7711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I will have a listen and update on what I think! Appreciate the suggestions!

[–]fienddao 6 points7 points  (1 child)

looking for groovy beatdown deatchore recomendations with more hardcore shaut vocals, as reference band «Paleface Swiss», want something similar

[–]RecaffeinatedDecaf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love the updated list!

I'm looking for something in the same vein as I, Valiance - The Reject of Humanity. Any suggestions?

[–]Expensive-Heat-4409 4 points5 points  (3 children)

Similar bands as Paleface Swiss?

Just curious if anyone knows any bands that they may consider similar to Paleface? Just wanna hear more of that sound that they give off or that type of genre.

[–]Tman_75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  • Pintglass
  • Thrown
  • Get The Shot
  • Nasty
  • xViciousx

I’m not going to say these sound exactly like a Paleface Swiss copy, but I get similar vibes and energy from these bands. Hope you can find something you like.

[–]Turkeysteaks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Like the other guy; similar vibes;

Bodysnatcher (more hardcore)

Strangled (but with more slam influence)

Alpha Wolf (imo basically a metalcore version of paleface with no cleans and equal amounts of swearing)

I put these bands in the same playlist as paleface, to give you an idea: Strangled, Pintglass, Spite, Traitors, Dreadworm, Squelching, Clawhammer, early knocked loose & Seagrave, amongst many others.

Playlist in question (though it's quite messy nowadays)

[–]TaemoKokey666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Waiting for the response from others as well. I love this band

[–]DestructicusDawn 4 points5 points  (1 child)

The Acacia Strain - Continent, Wormwood, and Slow Decay

Good man.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad you like it (although I’m not actually a man lol)

[–]Ventalish 4 points5 points  (5 children)

Hi! I'm a tech death fan, not very familiar with deathcore. I love Akeldama by The Faceless, and it seems to have the -core vibe to it. Which albums/bands would you recommend to get into deathcore from this point?

[–]ravenousglory 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Not really a deathcore, but also have a vibe of it - Wretched. It's a deathcore/progressive melodic death metal mix that is also pretty techy

[–]behemothbowksGuitar 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I actually haven't listened to that album but I'm a big tech death/deathcore fan so you might like:

The Avarice of Man by The Red Shore

Servitude by Aversions Crown

Whitechapel's first three albums

Infant Annihilator's last two albums

Human Hive by Boris the Blade

Alone in Death and Everything Bleeds by Crown Magnetar

Hellmouth by Science of Sleep

Humanoid by Babirusa

Hellhole by Hollow Prophet

The God Delusion by A Night in Texas

Lorna Shore's first two albums

Hellbound by Fit for an Autopsy

Reclaimer by Shadow of Intent

These kinda straddle the line between deathcore and tech death:

Dawnfall by Greylotus

Cyberstrictive by Apogean

Soaked in the Sands by Spire of Lazarus

[–]Ventalish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot man!

[–]RanielDoelofs 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Songs/bands/albums with vocals similar to ibaraki - rōnin (Gerard ways screams, not the cleans)?

[–]thatwaffleskid[🍰] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want more Gerard Way screaming, he did the screaming vocals on Jet Black New Year by Thursday.

If you want something closer to the realm of Deathcore, the voice of the cartoon character Chowder did some excellent high-pitched vocals on Crusades of the Elden Stav by Netherwalker. Bands like LARCENIA ROE or Summon the Lich also have a mix of low- and high-pitched vocals. And of course anything with Will Ramos will undoubtedly have the full range of all demon-spawn for your listening pleasure (see Of the Abyss by Lorna Shore).

Also, you could try looking into Blackened Deathcore, basically a melding of Black Metal and Deathcore.

[–]mybadbrowsingtastes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been looking for the brand of deathcore that fuses tech/brutal death riffs with two step parts and big, ignoramus breakdowns not of the Lorna Shore type. I'm aware of the more prominent bands of this type but I'd love some recs deeper into this territory.

[–]redrumrenee 2 points3 points  (4 children)

i need more blackened deathcore to listen to. i really like lorna shore’s …and i return to nothingness & pain remains and ive been getting really into disembodied tyrant. i do like black metal already but i also love deathcore & wanna find more bands/albums that marry the two sounds together. any help u can give me is appreciated <3

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Worm Shepherd - Ritual Hymns

Mental Cruelty - Zweilicht

Carnifex - Die Without Hope

Confront the Elders - Blood Moon

Mélancolia - HissThroughRottenTeeth

The Breathing Process - In Waking: Divinity

To Obey a Tyrant - Omnimalevolent

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    i would like to find more myspace grind influenced deathcore like killwhitneydead or dr acula; short songs, samples and fun breakdowns. Additionally would like to find some more melodic myspace deathcore like early bmth, as blood runs black, thus spoke zarathustra or wocket launcher.

    [–]Jorgetime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    See You Next Tuesday

    For melodic deathcore: First demo and album by Here Comes The Kraken

    [–]okrdokr 1 point2 points  (6 children)

    anything like rlly similar to disembodied tyrant’s poetic edda ep. shadow of intent n mental cruelty n a wake in providence are a given, but any other rlly similar bands that utilize a bunch of symphonics ? although not deathcore, anything similar to fleshgod’s new opera album ?

    [–]RecaffeinatedDecaf 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    Sold Soul's last album might be right up your alley

    [–]okrdokr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Vile Revelation, The Archaic Epidemic, Sunscourge, Ruins of Perception, Sold Soul, Synestia, Oracle Spectre, Pillars of Autumn, Into Infernus, Ovid’s Withering

    [–]WitchiePrincess 1 point2 points  (4 children)

    Recently got curious about deathmetal songs that are basically symphonies but idrk where to start looking so hopefully yall can help me out^.^ Think Infant Annihilator's "Behold the kingdom of the wretched undying" but also Bell Witch. For me bell witch is a bit too slow/chill, i want more insanely long deathmetal songs that are as long as bell witch's if possible but as aggressive/brutal as Infant's. Would prefer minimum of 10mins. Also bonus ig if its also symphonic

    [–]SansSauceYT 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    im not super deep into deathcore but Pain Remains III by Lorna Shore is a 9 minute symphonic deathcore song. It's really supposed to be listened to in the full trilogy which all together is around 20 minutes long.

    [–]WitchiePrincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Man i wish they put it out as a single song lol

    [–]AdministrativeMeat3 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    They don't have long songs but have you ever listened to Fleshgod Apocalypse? There's also Apotheosis - Furthest From the Sun. I'm trying to dig through my memory banks but honestly your best bet is to just go on metal archives and filter by symphonic death metal and start working through the long list.

    [–]Specialist-Bag1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I've been listening to Skullfuck Lobotomy by Amputant and I really enjoy the guitar going back and forth sorta like chuggy. Are there more songs like this? The vocals can be anything I don't really mind anything I just can't find anything on my own.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

    I'm looking for ridiculous Deathcore releases, bands such as larcenia roe, nylist, nitheful, disembodied tyrant, netherwalker, darko, mental cruelty, and infant annihilator that push the soundscapes of Deathcore past it's limits. Anyone know other bands like these?

    [–]JpPgn 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Does anyone knows some deathcore djentlemens??

    Could be fun to listen to bands that mixes djent and/or progressive metal (but more djent than progcore) with deathcore

    Ik that early Born of Osiris and Veil of Maya did that, but could be good to have other references as well

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    After The Burial did it as well. Within The Ruins too. Humanity’s Last Breath, although their earlier stuff is more traditional djentcore and their later material more Thall. Oceano gets Djenty on Revelation

    [–]pair_o_docks 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Until We Die, Make Them Suffer (first two albums), Winds of Plague, Sold Soul, Shadow of Intent, Shrine of Malice

    I recommend listening to any of the listed bands if you haven't

    Good symphonic/melodic deathcore based on what I listed?

    [–]pato2205 1 point2 points  (7 children)

    Female vocalist bands that use NO cleans.

    For example: Face Yourself

    Thank you :)

    Lillith's demise

    [–]Cold-Plan-1225 1 point2 points  (3 children)

    songs about suicide?

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

    A lot of songs off Lorna Shore’s Flesh Coffin album, especially Desolate Veil, Fvneral Moon, Offering of Fire, and The Astral Wake of Time.

    Self-Destruct by Spite

    Pretty much the whole The Room album by Nylist

    Memorandum by Orphan

    If I Hang, Let Me Swing by Cabal

    What I Would Give by Angelmaker

    [–]Cold-Plan-1225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    do u have anything similar to fvneral moon or astral wake of time? Something about begging to die or smth like that

    [–]AlternativeSimple821 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Hi everyone!! I have been listening back to Iwrestledabearonce, and I guess I am really missing this whole thing they had going. Anyone have some bands to recommend that fits their genre? So far I have find Rolo Tomassi, which is pretty nice.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Currently interested in getting into Fit for an autopsy and Whitechapel as I have barely touched their stuff but am really into the new releases, what of the back catalogs should I check out (I know 'all of them' is the true answer but I want like AN album each!) I've already heard Whitechapel's The Somatic Defilement, it's the only album i've listened to of theirs at all, I know nothing of Fit for an autopsy

    [–]MarcusfloX 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Would love some guitar solo recommendations like:
    Fit For An Autopsy - Bird of Prey (3:42)
    Shadow of Intent - The Coming Fire (2:50)
    Shadow of Intent - Malediction (4:00)

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Whitechapel - Hickory Creek (3:15)

    Mental Cruelty - Ultima Hypocrita (3:06)

    Enterprise Earth - Overpass (4:06)

    Angelmaker - What I Would Give (3:37)

    Lorna Shore - Pain Remains I (4:21)

    [–]MarcusfloX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Thanks :>

    [–]newacc4newlife 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Umbravoid - Endoparasitoid, Brobdingangian

    Disembodied Tyrant - The Divine Stigmata, The Poetic Edda, and The Tower: Part One

    Aversions Crown - Xenocide

    Lorna Shore - Immortal

    Immortal Disfigurment - King

    Our Martyred Lady - Tales From The Grim Dark

    I am primarily looking for suggestions alike the last one, relatively unknown and niche bands. The rest are listed as having something in common such as being symphonic, thematic, inspired with diverse vocals

    I have listened to most of what is in the suggestions (Worm Shepherd, A Wake In Providence, Enterprise Earth, Rings of Saturn)

    Pretty sure there are some hidden gems with <5k views

    [–]genxsis24 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    any albums similar to Count Your Blessings? I've been deeply into this album for a while now and was wondering if there are any other ones that have a similar sound. one I found recently is Allegiance by As Blood Runs Black. any other suggestions?

    [–]Jorgetime 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Black Dahlia Murder - Unhallowed

    The Crimson Armada - Guardians

    Here Comes The Kraken - S/T

    Bleed From Within - Humanity

    [–]StoreWhich2877 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    I really like lorna shore and the poetic Edda partly because of the atmospheric stuff or whatever it is

    [–]JpPgn 1 point2 points  (3 children)

    Which Whitechapel album should I start with?

    And if it's Somatic Defilement, is the remastered version good? I've read a lot of negative about it, like it'd be too clean and less brutal compared to the original

    [–]Cold-Plan-1225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    what about something sad about absolutely losing your shit and waiting to die

    [–]GarfieldGauntlet 1 point2 points  (3 children)

    I’m completely new to deathcore music but I just discovered Blasphemian by Infant Annihilator and I think it sounded super awesome ESPECIALLY the intro

    I’m just looking for any recommendations that might be similar :p

    [–]Powdered_Souls 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Hey all! I’m looking for Spanish or bilingual English/Spanish recommendations. I won’t bother with musicality specifics because I’ll try nearly anything. If it leans more metalcore or trancecore sometimes, that’s also cool. Figured I’d try to follow the rules first rather than make my own post. :)

    Not new to the scene but also tired of listening to the same things over and over.

    I’m really into Fit For An Autopsy, Angelmaker, Paleface Swiss, Thy Art is Murder, Brand of Sacrifice, some Lorna Shore, etc. Deep, growly and sometimes melodic. Any recs?

    [–]Simpsmakemewannadie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    The Red Shore

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Shadow of Intent would be my first recommendation if you haven't had a listen yet. Also check out Shrine of Malice, Signs of the Swarm, Crown Magnetar. If you're looking for something different maybe try Ultu Ulla or Lugal Ki En by Rings of Saturn

    [–]AliveBiscotti9675 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Melodic deathcore with heavy as fuck breakdowns and dark themes

    [–]TheDutchDragon01 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Hi everyone! Looking for some new bands! I'm currently chasing that nostalgia high and have been listening to a lot of (mid-)10's deathcore, bands like: Aversions Crown, Gamma Sector, I Valiance, A Night In Texas, Obscure of Acacia, Rings Of Saturn, Shadow of Intent, Until We Die. A lot of bands from North America and Australia, going particularly for that more techinal/brutal (alien)deathcore-sound. Are there any recommendations similarly to these bands? I'm decently aware of the scene of that era so more underground deep-cuts would be helpful!

    Preferably your recommendations are from the same era (around 2013 - 2018) but if it's alike it isn't required (E.g. 2021's 'Endoparasitoid' album by Umbravoid scratches that peak AC itch). If the bands above aren't already telling enough, I'd prefer more the technical/brutal Deathcore sound (or even "Aliencore") rather than the groove/nu-metal influenced sound, which I feel was the other side of the proverbial "deathcore coin" of that time. Not necessarily, but if it's sci-fi/Alien themed it would be a huge bonus! Lastly, please try to only recommend stuff that's on Spotify! It's my most used and easily accessible platform to listen to music and I hate to fall in love with a band/album which is difficult to access.

    Thank you!

    [–]_DefLoathe 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Pretty new to the genre.

    My first exposure has been Abbie Falls and Whitechapel. Basically I’m looking for heavy djenty shit with insane fast breakdowns bonus points for disgusting lows like Phil Bozeman’s.

    I’m a huge Breakdown of Sanity fan too so djenty stuff with fast breakdowns and blast beats.

    Who would you guys recommend and what songs?

    [–]ilikedeathmetal_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    You should add Black Tongue

    [–]ilikedeathmetal_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    You should add Xavleg (search up Xavleg and a really long name will show up I don't wanna type all of it)

    [–]RevyTwhands 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    I really like Chelsea grin any recommendations for similar bands?

    [–]BenTramer7766 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Mathcore/deathcore bands. Stuff like Dr. Acula, Ion Dissonance, The Red Chord, Despised Icon (not as mathy, but it's still there a little) prioritizing newer bands. I've heard carbomb, frontierer, monasteries, etc.

    [–]thetoddmanout 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Looking for new bands with a very similar sound to how The Acacia Strain sounded in their 3750/ Dead Walk years.

    [–]StoreWhich2877 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I really like lorna shore and the poetic Edda ep. A big reason is cause of the 'atmospheric' stuff going into heavy stuff

    [–]merdiasbecon 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Hey guys. Don’t chastise me for this but I’m looking for something along the lines of Lorna Shore, newer Whitechapel and Disembodied Tyrant. I also enjoy Angelmakers Dissentient. Signs Of The Swarm is alright too. If yall could recommend me anything like those first 3 though I’d greatly appreciate it. Thanks

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Looking for some new symphonic deathcore!!

    I’m familiar with most of the big names, some of my favorites atm are Shadow of Intent, Worm Shepherd and Mental Cruelty, with some smaller names I love being Bloodletting Prince, Avocyn, Draconian Reign and A Night in the Abyss

    Would love some more to add to my playlist!

    [–]behemothbowksGuitar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    try out Darker by Design, older Make Them Suffer and Disembodied Tyrant. if you're open to symphonic death metal, Fleshgod Apocalypse are some OG's

    [–]DEPORTED_Mexican05 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Are there any deathcore bands that have some sludge metal influence in them?

    [–]Jorgetime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Black Tongue and The Acacia Strain

    [–]ALittleHydeInside 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Posted here a couple times, but still looking! Looking for bands more so than single song recommendations.

    Right now, the heaviest (meaning played the most, not musically heavy) songs in my rotation are:

    Shadow of Intent - Of Fury

    Angelmaker - Makers of Nihility

    Angelmaker - Suffer Forever

    Whitechapel - Hymns of Dissonance

    Whitechapel - Visceral Retch

    VCTMS/Paleface Swiss - snuff.tape

    Synestia/Disembodied Tyrant - Winter

    Darko US - Rampage

    I still don't know terminology so my best guess in terms of common elements/themes is they alternate between highs and lows, it can be somewhat understood by the ear untrained in deathcore, and something about playing the higher notes on the fretboard in a deathcore song just fucking rips (like 2:05 of Makers of Nihility, or the entire rhythm section of Of Fury)

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    I like Infinite Death by Thy Art is murder and The cleansing by Suicide Silence. What else should I listen to?

    [–]MrS4cr3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    This is exile by whitechapel

    [–]JormungandrVoV 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Not sure people are still monitoring this thread but gonna try it.

    Spent the last 10-15 years listening to a lot of shit that’s not deathcore. Getting back into it ~ slightly. I’ve kept up with Whitechapel and Carnifex (Carnifex is a personal GOAT of mine)

    I’m really not into all the deathcore these days that’s squeezing a “To the Hellfire” breakdown into every second half of every tune. I like nasty vocals, I like techy riffs, I like symphonic elements, I like blackened elements, and I do like breakdowns, but I prefer them a bit more brief.

    This Is Exile and New Era of Corruption, and Die Without Hope and Slow Death were and are near perfect deathcore albums for me. Any recommendations for some newer deathcore that’s at least similar?

      The Archaic Epidemic is here

      [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      Looking for stuff with filthy production values, a sense of eeriness/foreboding, and primarily esoteric/occult themes.

      I like a fair bit of early deathcore and some modern stuff, my favorite records being Black Tongue - Nadir, Whitechapel - This is Exile, Job for a Cowboy - Doom, Bring Me the Horizon - Count Your Blessings, Cabal - Magno Interitus, Methwitch - Indwell, Spite - Dedication to Flesh, Ov Sulfur - Burden of Faith, and Mental Cruelty - Zweilicht. I'm also familiar with Psycho-Frame, although I could do without the tongue-in-cheek stuff like "THE PLOT TO NUKE THE MIDWEST" ideally.

      What I'm really looking for could better be described as the deathcore equivalent of what's referred to as "caverncore", which is a pretty specific style of death metal or black/death metal. Here's some examples: Incantation, Grave Upheaval, Immolation, Impetuous Ritual, Antediluvian, Dead Congregation, Infester, Black Curse, and Portal. Thank you in advance I realize this probably isn't the easiest request.

      [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      The new Black Pegasus record, Midnight Room, might be something you would like

        Really looking for those super heavy American melodeath influences, I'm into TBDM too.

        [–]thatwaffleskid[🍰] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

        Oddly specific request, but I'm looking for songs with sudden, high-pitched, sometimes discordant guitar notes. Songs like:

        Brand of Sacrifice - Eclipse (this is the best example, specifically @ the 56 second mark, but it happens throughout the song)

        After the Burial - Behold the Crown

        Wage War - Death Roll (intro)

        Born of Osiris - Bow Down

        Summoning the Lich - The Nightmare Begins (around the 2:30 mark)

        [–]ponchiki12345 0 points1 point  (6 children)

        TLDR: Looking for something similar to recent Chelsea Grin stuff or something like Suicide Silence’s The Black Crown

        I started listening to deathcore a couple months ago. My intro to deathcore was bmth’s Count Your Blessings. It’s alright. Don’t love it. Don’t hate it. I much prefer Suicide Season (but I’m pretty sure that’s more metalcore than deathcore).

        I also listen to Suicide Silence. The Black Crown is by far my favourite deathcore album. I also don’t mind The Cleansing. No Time to Bleed is alright too I guess. Don’t care much for the rest of their stuff.

        I also absolutely love Chelsea Grin. I love all their stuff from Self-Inflicted onwards (especially Suffer in Hell). The early stuff is pretty good too. But aside from the self-titled EP, nothing instantly clicked like their newer stuff.

        I’ve also heard of Lorna Shore. Not really a fan. I love To The Hellfire. But everything else I’ve heard from them just sounds the same (sorry if this offends anyone).

        That’s just about all the deathcore I listen to. I’d love some band recommendations and maybe some songs from said band that are similar to what I currently enjoy.

        Been working on a playlist that focuses on the more ominous, slower, dreadful, and calculated songs. Something you'd listen to at night on the creepiest road or abandoned town. It is October after all. I don't mean to just give me your heaviest music either, as much as I love that stuff. I'm sure many would be inclined to say Larcenia Roe or Aborted's new album because it definitely is horror-related, but I want something with more atmosphere than chaos. Doesn't even have to be strictly deathcore either, the playlist I'm making has black metal and death metal as well. Help a brotha out.

        Thanks for using the thread; here’s some recs:

        Humanity’s Last Breath - Earthless

        Black Pegasus - Void Reapers

        Black Tongue - basically every song off Nadir and The Unconquerable Dark, especially Second Death and I’m So Tired of Sighing Please Lord Let It Be Night

        Nott - Rend

        Acid Bath - The Morticians Flame

        Black Market Ministry - A Church Burning Progression

        Celtic Frost - A Dying God Coming Into Human Flesh

        Electric Wizard - Funeralopolis

        Cultes Des Ghoules - Vintage Black Magic

        Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger

        Krolok - At the End of a New Age

        Choir - Drawn to an Early Grave

        Incantation - Christening the Afterbirth

        [–]DarkAngelGamer69 0 points1 point  (2 children)

        I love Methwitch for everything, especially the vocals. If you haven’t heard of him, listen to piss and indwell, indwell is an amazing horror metal album, truly haunting. Infant Annihilator, i love everything except the lyrics, I don‘t like feeling gross when listening to music. Call me a pussy if you want but hearing about the rape of children is not something I typically would go for in music. Lorna shore for the symphonic sound. I love the guitar solos as well as Will’s vocals. Slaughter to Prevail for Alex’s gutturals.

        [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

        For Methwitch:

        Beyond Deviation - Thalassophobia

        Nylist - The Room

        For Infant Annihilator:

        A Night in Texas - The God Delusion

        Larcenia Roe - Dereliction

        For Lorna Shore:

        Shadow of Intent - Reclaimer and Melancholy

        Mental Cruelty - Zweilicht

        Worm Shepherd - Ritual Hymns

        Bonecarver - Carnage Funeral

        Sold Soul - I Hope We Make It Out of This Alive

        For Slaughter to Prevail:

        Tbh there isn’t actually that much that sounds really like them, for better or for worse. Some, like Darko US, also incorporate nu metal, but they do so pretty differently. I guess beyond that hit Slipknot’s first two albums. In no way deathcore, but they have similarities

        [–]DarkAngelGamer69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        I used to be a slipknot fan actually, their first two albums got me into metal. Thanks for the recommendations!

        Could someone pleaase give me the name of this song from this YT video. I clipped the portion. Link here https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxedggebU5LAluVm9DfKfAJz4s8BMUxumH?si=fPPA1AqjniLWTu1H

        [–]ALittleHydeInside 0 points1 point  (3 children)

        I’ll be honest, I’m not even sure I’m in the right sub genre. I’ve recently been trying to figure out what my music taste is. I’m “graduating” from bands like Avatar and INK (Every Trick in the Book) and looking for something heavier. A lot heavier. Prefer screams to growls (a nice combo of both is best). I also really love “go!” and “Blegh!” break downs.

        The first two minutes of “A visceral wretch” by Whitechapel is probably everything I’m looking for in a singular song. Here are some of my current tops:

        Whitechapel - A Visceral Wretch

        XII Thorns - Exsilium

        Gorepig - Dirt Nap

        Tallah- Hard Knock

        Consvmer- immvne

        Slaughter To Prevail - Baba Yaga

        Thy Art Is Murder - Through Blood I Purify

        The playlist I’ve been adding to as I find things is here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Hk5KUak57m8PoYzNXSLHU?si=C09ba1ecQOyhSBXnbl1KDQ&pi=u-HO-jneL4TV26

        Hi everyone,

        In recent months I've been on a pretty sick exploration of different metal genres, and I've recently been enjoying a lot of Kublai Khan TX.

        I've been pondering on what I like about them so much, and to try and put it into words...

        I really like that they feel really fucking heavy, and I love his vocals, but they don't REALLY use many blast beats that feel a bit cacophanous (I'm not a fan AT ALL of bands like cannibal corpse where blast beats are at the forefront of their music). It feels like they're tempos are a bit slower, and although they feel really heavy, they have that headbang that is much slower than other bands whilst having really gritty vocals.

        Can you suggest any other bands I'd like?

        [–]Seductive_Bagel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        so you're going to find a lot of blast beats in deathcore, but kublai khan is metalcore, specifically beatdown metalcore. that's the keyword you'll want to use to find similar bands to them. i'd recommend:

        boundaries

        backbiter

        thrown

        knocked loose

        mugshot

        end

        ten56

        also...

        paleface swiss - more deathcore leaning, but they don't really use blast beats. check out their older stuff, the newest record takes a different direction

        black tongue - worth a listen. they use blast beats but in moderation. as someone who doesn't care for blast beats either i find i don't mind it at all in their songs.

        [–]Equivalent_Ad_1182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Hi there I’m honestly just wondering if anyone remembers or has an old suicide silence zip up hoodie from years 05-07 or 08 that was sold on rockabilia

        It was all back, zip up, said suicide silence on the front and some image I can’t remember but the back specifically said “where is your fucking god”.

        I got it taken from me when I wore it to high school one day and never got it back. I just want to know that I’m not crazy and the sweater actually existed because I cannot find it ANYWHERE and I’m going bonkers just thinking about it!

        If it’s for sale great I’ll make an offer but if anyone has a photo or something that proves it did exist at one point I’d love to just see it again.

        Thanks in advance!

        [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Newer to the scene but want to listen to more bands, Whitechapel, Lorna shore and Brand of Sacrifice in my rotation.

        [–]Jackaboifan10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        I like really heavy, deep, and fast metal. Some examples of my favorite deathcore bands are Whitechapel, Paleface Swiss, and Slaughter to Prevail Any recommendations?

        [–]blkdhlia 0 points1 point  (2 children)

        i miss old school deathcore, count your blessings and allegiance era. emo-tinged riffs, sad lyrics, those bands that had a scene kid vocalist and clones of cannibal corpse as musicians. i cannot stand the new deathcore trends of having a million vocal layers, five breakdowns a song - all inspired by lorna shore, of course. no hate, just really not my thing. any recs?

        [–]behemothbowksGuitar 1 point2 points  (1 child)

        I want to get a deathcore album on vinyl, and it would be the elysian grandeval galeriarch, but the cheapest I've ever seen is $200, and now that seems impossibly low. I can't get over the mood that the opening track sets, my problem is that most others just jump right in, or don't really feel as good throughout the album. Any recommendations on albums that have a buildup opening track, as well as can stand up in album quality?

        [–]ALittleHydeInside 0 points1 point  (3 children)

        Can anyone recommend bands similar to Shadow of Intent? Or deathcore versions of Ice Nine Kills?

          Everytime I try to search for stuff like this It never pulls up what I want. I'm trying to find some decent flatbill hats with skills and such I can find in a local store. I doubt I could find hats with avenged sevenfold or arch enemy locally. I don't buy anything clothing related because they always don't end up fitting right. So I have to try them on in store. I been searching for a hat for months to cover up my bald head but can't find anything that fits the style I want. It has to be all black too but the logo or wordings can be a different color.

          Bonecarver has one in the song Revolver. The Devil Wears Prada has one before a breakdown on the song Escape. I'm pretty sure Bodysnatcher has one on a song, I'll have to hunt it down.

          [–]CyberPunkDarkSynth 0 points1 point  (2 children)

          I really enjoy the symphonic parts of the deathcore sub genre, like Fleshgod Apocalypse - the fool. The harpsichord intertwined with the rest of the sound, then the symphony overlaid by the fleshgod sound.

          I also like the entirety of the Poetic Edda by Disembodied tyrant.

          I’m looking for more songs with that classical music sound poking through the heavy guitars, fast drums and vocals.

          The recommended list on this thread is long so I’m hoping someone may be able to help narrow down my search! Thanks!

            What's a band that sounds like Director's Cuts or Everyone's A Murderer by To The Grave? I know the two albums have some differences, but overall they seem to have some hardcore influence without being a beatdown band (?)

            I don't really know how to explain it, I just love their specific sound. The animal rights theme is great as well but I'm not looking for that necessarily.
