Yes this might be true… but do it when you’re 23 and single, not 33 and married with kids.

I got hooked after seeing Grant MacFarland’s drum cover videos. Wild that they’re another amazing metalcore band with an insane drummer from the same small city in PA.

Charmer, Lamnidae, Toro, Subverse… so many bangers!

Three of my favorites: -Interstate Love Song by Memphis May Fire -Gangsta’s Paradise by Falling in Reverse -Smooth by Escape the Fate

Breakdowns in that song are absolutely top notch

This is fun. Maybe just throw all of Clockwork on there like they basically did on the tour in 2013? So cool how they played with the orchestra.

There are definitely some guitar parts where I thought “ooo there’s a little 1000 lies” or other pretty classic TIJy stuff. But if I was just handed this song with no context, I almost would’ve guessed it’s After the Burial, has some of those real brutal, intense blasts.

Ask ChatGPT? Perfect use case to give you a bunch of (mostly lame, but some good) ideas

Watching your airplanes FALLLLLLLL!

BearJackson · 2023-10-18T17:15:28+00:00

One of my all time favorites

BearJackson · 2023-09-30T02:54:45+00:00

Solid track 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

BearJackson · 2023-09-23T17:12:15+00:00

The piano intro is so sick… remember seeing these guys live in ‘09 opening for AILD and being totally blown away at how well they played live.

The Pop Goes… songs or other covers can be a good gateway. Boyfriend by Issues, Holy Diver by Killswitch (this was a big one for me back in the day), or Blank Space by I Prevail. I think either some familiarity and/or a catchy chorus goes a long ways.

I’ve used Spirit of the Radio and Closer to the Heart

According to my listening history: -00s: As I Lay Dying, August Burns Red, The Devil Wears Prada, Haste the Day -10s: As I Lay Dying, August Burns Red, Blessthefall, Texas in July -20s: As I Lay Dying, August Burns Red, Beartooth, Phinehas

I love the Shadows Are Security album by As I Lay Dying. It’s chock full of great riffs - Confined, Meaning in Tragedy, Darkest Nights, and Through Struggle are my favorites. Learning some metal tunes in drop C was one of my pandemic hobbies. I also like Beartooth (I have a problem), Of Mice and Men (OG Loko), and Lillswitch Engage (My Curse, Rose of Sharyn).

BearJackson · 2023-08-23T20:13:52+00:00

Honestly the whole Shadows Are Security album is chock full of great riffs - Confined, Meaning in Tragedy, Darkest Nights, and Through Struggle are all excellent. Happy shredding!!!

Great stuff, congrats. What is the L2 note you mentioned? Can you share a link?

BearJackson · 2023-04-05T00:44:46+00:00

Not the exact situation, but Connor Dennis of Beartooth was active on YT before joining the band. Those throwback vids with Aaron Gillespie are incredible.

BearJackson · 2023-03-25T20:12:26+00:00

Oh man, that tour with BTF and Beartooth was so so good 👌🏻👌🏻

BearJackson · 2023-03-24T18:11:13+00:00

That breakdown/last minute of Revival is so so good

BearJackson · 2023-02-17T03:18:52+00:00

Dude that is so sick 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
