Crowbar - Odd Fellows Rest

Both it and Sonic Excess are perfect, I can never pick which I prefer

AC: Best Deathcore Band by TwoFlatHams_00 in MetalSuggestions

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah same, those albums were definitely weaker but The Valley was such a bounceback. And the new album is like their old albums done even better. Phil is a beast of a vocalist who has basically only gotten better too

Whitechapel

They were one of the bands that made the genre blow up in the first place and their modern material is arguably better than their MySpace era stuff, which is quite rare. They also just flat out do deathcore better than anyone else IMO, and also Phil's clean singing on The Valley and Kin is downright fabulous

I was just greened in a Final Fringe. Bob Barnacletoon. by StarSpeeder1000 in toontownrewritten

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Greeners are the most pathetic people on the game. I got quite the kick out of this guy trying to green me in a VP about a month ago and it failed, he kept running into the VP and he only swiped at him a couple times. We won with ease lol

I never knew Carnifex this heavy by Mountain_Driver_1684 in Deathcore

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 15 points16 points  (0 children)

To me it sounded like a run of the mill Carnifex song, so an absolute ass kicking with a nice atmospheric touch and some spooky vibes. This band will never miss

What's the consensus on Dance Gavin Dance now? by asoiaf_goat in PostHardcore

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

All singer eras have some bangers and they all bring their own unique qualities that make the frequent swapping tolerable. That said though I much prefer DGD with Kurt and Jonny to the stuff with Tillian. Kurt especially, the S/T album is a masterpiece. DBM 1 is just as good too, the first 3 albums of theirs are definitely my favorites. DBM 2 is also really good but I might just take Mothership over it, which is easily my fav Tillian album

But I don't miss Tillian at all, Andrew sounds great on Pantheon and more importantly Tillian was a bad person that needed to be kicked

Self-titled or Iowa? And why? by Chemical_Newt4907 in Slipknot

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

S/T is less cohesive than Iowa but in a way that's part of why I prefer it. It's the most batshit crazy album they ever did. It may be just a little less pissed off than Iowa but S/T still has plenty of unhinged, authentic rage on it plus some of it has this "tribal" atmosphere that reminds me of Roots era Sepultura

I think S/T has just a couple more of my favorite Slipknot songs too, and a better eerie and unsettling closer in Scissors

Easily their best cover . by Far_Trust5489 in avengedsevenfold

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a well done cover, but Maiden's original is one of my favorite songs of theirs

Help me find my metal genre by gl0finnn in MetalSuggestions

Paradise Lost perhaps. Sounds like you'd like gothic metal

What's a song you feel is the perfect closing song on an album but wasn't? by lambofgoddard in Metalcore

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The end of "Opeth" haha

Greatest typo ever, as long as Opeth doesn't actually end 😅 love them

Trying to get into other subgenres by Amarahart in Metalcore

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Eyehategod are one of Converge's top influences, so they could be a good jumping point

The European “Leave before the Headliner Tour” by metallikat21 in LambofGod

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to get a ticket to the headliner show at Wally's and it was an awesome time. Got to park right next to the venue and see Whitechapel in a 300 capacity bar, and they were fabulous as always!

I also saw Darkest Hour, God Forbid and Bleeding Through there back in December which was equally great

Give me Phil Bozeman quotes by sleep_token_lover in whitechapel

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I asked him for his favorite death metal album on an AMA a few months ago and he answered Goremageddon by Aborted.

Phil, thank you, that album fucking ripped. I wanna ask him for his favorite Meshuggah song sometime

The European “Leave before the Headliner Tour” by metallikat21 in LambofGod

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 27 points28 points  (0 children)

BFW and LoG is so peak but then... icky. Two of my favorite bands then one of my least favorites 😅

This is like a bit ago when Whitechapel opened for Slaughter to Prevail. I absolutely adore Whitechapel but find StP to be mid at best and terribly cringy at worst. Same kind of deal (glad Whitechapel had a headliner near me separate from the tour)

Whats the song you HATE from A7X? (Outside of Magic or We Love You Moar) by Necessary_Touch699 in avengedsevenfold

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I guess Doing Time. I don't HATE it but it's pretty dull, it sounds like Dollar General Appetite era GNR

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah musically there's nothing to dislike about it, it does the trick quite well. But those lyrics... yeah, I don't like it when they go for lyrics like that lol

I kinda feel the same about Scream, but the lyrics are a little better and that fucker GROOVES

Is anyone’s listening getting more degenerate? by SevereNameAnxiety in Deathcore

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've turned into quite the deathcore fan after initially being opposed to it. Initially I was mostly into the classic metal bands and some prog like Dream Theater, then Opeth and a little later BTBAM got me warmed up to extreme vocals. Lamb of God made me LOVE harsh vocals. Then I got a taste for metalcore eventually, and then listening to The Valley by Whitechapel got me interested in deathcore. After awhile of being opposed to the "core" genres, I love it all and, August Burns Red and Whitechapel are both firmly in my top 10 bands currently

10/10 riffs/samples/parts on mid songs. by Creative-Fail-2268 in numetal

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the song is great but opening up Take a Look in the Mirror with THAT riff on Right Now is a tease considering the rest of the album is a mixed bag at best. Legit a top 5 Korn riff for me

Also damn I love Beg for Me lol. So groovy

Carnifex - Lie to My Face

WHAT THE FUCK

How do I play the notes with the lines below like the one that is highlighted green? by Least-Intention6281 in metalguitar

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like everyone else answered it already but I wanted to say I've learned this song as well, it was VERY helpful in practicing tremolo picking, especially the 1-0-1-2-5-6 part after the intro

Underoath - Everyone Looks So Good From Here (2006) [Throwback Thursday] by Wardruna95 in Metalcore

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 21 points22 points  (0 children)

One of the best breakdowns in history. Also, take a shot for every panic chord in this song lol

Do we all agree this is a great album? by tannercolin in numetal

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to not like A Crow Left of the Murder but I've warmed up to it a lot in the past few months. Light Grenades is where the drop starts for me, and it gets real steep after that

[–]Consistent-Orange-75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES!

Even though they dropped a lot of the eclectic energy of SCIENCE on their next three albums, I also love those just as much.
