Winds of Plague is the only band I have heard off that list, they are pretty awful imo.

Unearth and Converge have some pretty awesome breakdowns. I don't listen to very much -core music, so i don't really know too many. I prefer good songwriting and technicality over stuff that is just made to be heavy.

I've heard of Through The Eyes of the Dead and Suicide Silence, and they're both not the greatest...

Not too big of a fan of metalcore and such. I used to listen to stuff like Trivium, Bullet for my Valentine, Killswitch Engage, and all that generic stuff before I got into technical, like Athiest, Cynic, Opeth, Ion Dissonance, ect ect ect.

But for one thing, some people say Between the Buried and Me is a metalcore band (although it's more prog than anything), so you might like that.

. I prefer good songwriting and technicality over stuff that is just made to be heavy.

to call it not good songwriting is a little bold. technicality i will agree with.

but yeah i like ion, and between the buried and me (which is pretty technical)

i was just looking for more bands, doesn't seem like a big following around here though. just looking for heavy nasty breakdowns.

other stuff includes
acacia strain
liferuiner
molotov solution

whoa, whoa, whoa dude...everyone is certainly entitled to their own taste and style of music, and i have the utmost respect for that, but please do not bash "core" music, as you so aptly stated, on grounds of bad songwriting and a lack of technicality. this type of music (certainly not all, as i will admit there are many, many bad "core" music types of bands) is incredibly precise and intricate; most of these bands can change complete styles of music on a dime and are trained classically as well, many of them being rooted back to the blues (which in my opinion paved the way and is the foundation of rock 'n roll in general). to call it bad songwriting and lacking technicality is downright disrespectful. listen, and i mean actually sit down and listen, to bands like through the eyes of the dead and between the buried and me before you begin to rant about music being made just to be heavy.

I'm a real old school metalhead tyler, real old, like King Crimson, Iron Butterfly and Hawkwind. My problem with a lot of new stuff is that it sounds like it's been written by a computer, it's got no soul, no human grunt. I do like Unearth, and 36 Crazyfists, and slashe50 convinced me to download Cynic the other day, which I like. I'm also a big fan of Hank Williams III, whose version of cowpunk and hell billy has definitely turned into thrash metal, believe it or not. But most of it leaves me cold. I guess that means I'm not into hardcore... right?? :afro:

Blues???... Blues????... Core metal based in Blues????? :lmao: Classical maybe but Blues??? The last metal band to have blues roots was Led Zeppelin.

Listen to a bit of Albert King and think about it man... :)

25th-February-2009, 05:38 AM
haha, cacteur, i apologize for that being confusing or misleading...i meant to say that a lot of these guys playing metal or hardcore or whatever you want to call it, can also play blues music. i didn't mean it as a direct influence to what they are currently playing. my bad. i also don't mean to imply that they are accomplished blues musicians such as Winter, Gallagher, or Vaughn...simply that they have the capability of playing numerous types of music. i also agree with you saying much of the hardcore stuff today seems like it was done on a computer, and a lot of it truly is. check out between the buried and me, though. i think you might apprecriate some of their music.

as far as being old school, i certainly am not as knowledgable as yourself. i currently am taking a history of rock 'n roll, 70s and 80s, however, and have learned quite a bit thus far. frank zappa, captain beefheart, king crimson, moody blues...all wonderful stuff, so thanks for mentioning some of that. once again, sorry for the confusion.

Led Zeppelin wasn't even metal...

And you people took my quote way out of context, I guess. I don't hate core for the sake of doing it. I really like good metalcore...Stuff like Between the Buried and Me, Converge, Botch, Unearth, new Underoath, All that remains, Becoming the Archetype, and Misery Signals. However, aside from those bands, I find most metalcore, deathcore especially, focuses too much on being heavy. And when I said I prefered songwriting to technicality to heaviness, I didn't mean for it to come out as another core bash. That's just how I feel about any music. Most Dream theater stuff bores me now as well because despite their technicality, they can't write a song for the life of them. I also never really got into the more brutal death metal a la Suffocation.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I don't seem to be well-liked here. Slashe is the only one who actually listens to anything I recommend. Perhaps I should stay away from here.

Don't worry, I wuv you. :D

Anyway, as for -cores, I'm really getting into mathcore, with the chaos of frequent time signatures, key signatures, and tempos. Ion Dissonance, Dillinger Escape Plan, and, as some people consider mathcore, Meshuggah.

And I suppose some grindcore is decent. Napalm Death, Pig Destroyer, and Nasum are okay.

That was my point to an extent. The term "Metal" was first used to describe Sabbath's sound, but was soon also applied to Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Edgar Broughton Band, and many others including Zep. While it's a little inaccurate, that is what genre labels are, inaccurate, and that was also the point I was trying to make. :^_^:

I understood what you were saying the first time. Maybe you are misunderstanding what I am saying. I guess I didn't really answer you, because I'm not all that sure of modern genre labels, but I did give you my angle on modern metal. :)

Oh cry me a river bro! :gay: If you want everyone to love you maybe you are looking in the wrong forum. Starting a thread entitled deathcore/metalcore/hardcore/purebreakdownownagecore is likely to involve a certain amount of hard lingo, I would have expected that, but as it turns out the comments in this thread are pretty tame aren't they? I oughta start a thread about how much I like country... I bet that will get me a lot more shit than what you think you are getting. I reckon you are misunderstanding everyone else. I for one have no problem wiv ya man. Lighten up !!!! :D

:lmao: I'm still laughing mate! Don't let it worry you. If you want to hear heavy blues, check out Alvin Lee and Ten Years After, or Savoy Brown, or John Mayall. Metal is heavy rock totally devoid of any blues influence, and it is that very point the distinguishes it from mainstream heavy rock, from Sabbath to Metallica to Unearth. If you can detect a blues influence in Panterra, then you are saying it isn't metal IMHO. With respect Slashe50, I contend your understanding of blues is flawed. ;)

Peace bro..

27th-February-2009, 01:22 AM
Pah. Dimebag Darrel had a huge blues influence, and showed in much of his playing.
And Zakk Wylde.

Cacteur
27th-February-2009, 05:50 AM
:lol: We are talking about Darryl Abbot of Damage Plan and Pantera right? The bloke who was shot in December 2004? Mate, maybe he can claim a blues influence, but there isn't a hint of it in his work with Damage Plan and Pantera, not even a teeny bit. His rifs are 100% white boy metal.

As for Zak Wylde.. this is what he himself says on his MySpace page...

I love music. Bob Dylan, Hank Williams I, II and III, Killswitch Engage, Motley Crue, all kinds. All kinds of other rock and country as well, I also play drums and guitar

Blues? Yeah right mate... :rolleyes:

I've already said earlier slashe, Genre labels are a kind of dumb idea anyway, and never quite fit good music, but Blues and Metal are an oxymoron in my book. I'll leave it at that.. ;)

Here's an interesting history/definition from metalwikia.com

Heavy metal music is a genre of rock music that developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. With roots in blues-rock and psychedelic rock, the bands that created heavy metal developed a thick, heavy, guitar-and-drums-centered sound, characterized by highly amplified distortion and fast guitar solos. Allmusic states that "of all rock & roll's myriad forms, heavy metal is the most extreme in terms of volume, machismo, and theatricality." Heavy metal has long had a worldwide following of fans known as "metalheads" or "headbangers". Although early heavy metal bands such as Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple attracted large audiences, they were often critically reviled at the time, a status common throughout the history of the genre. In the mid-1970s, Judas Priest helped spur the genre's evolution by discarding much of its blues influence. Bands in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal such as Iron Maiden and Motörhead followed in a similar vein, introducing a punk rock sensibility and an increasing emphasis on speed. In the mid-1980s, pop-infused glam metal became a major commercial force with groups like Mötley Crüe. Underground scenes produced an array of more extreme, aggressive styles: thrash metal broke into the mainstream with bands such as Metallica, while other styles like death metal and black metal remain subcultural phenomena. Since the mid-1990s, popular styles such as nu metal, which often incorporates elements of funk and hip hop; and metalcore, which blends extreme metal with hardcore punk, have further expanded the definition of the genre.

(Highlights are mine.):)

Here's a good read.. bit of a slog but it put a few things in perspective for me..

http://metal.wikia.com/wiki/Heavy_metal_music

I think I always thought the "Heavy" part of the phrase "Heavy Metal" was the blues reference. When it was dropped and the genre became just "Metal", it dropped the blues influence. I'm kind of right. Read the article... :devil2:

I was obviously being facetious about everything, I just think Liferuiner is really shitty. the internet is serious!!!!!!11!!~~
I hate how hardcore kids think they're so above the masses when they listen to music just as shitty (genre-wise) as say Soulja Boy. Liferuiner has nothing important to say and is a waste of time. I've always found it kinda cheesy when bands throw in breakdowns for the fuck of it.
I didn't know so many kids listened to hardcore for the mindless breakdowns and tha siq mawsh. I always thought punk rock stood for more than that, but maybe that's just me! Sure I love heavy music, but not when it's dumb.

But on a slightly more serious AND more relevant note, can everyone just listen to more Unbroken, Chokehold, and Disembodied?

I don't care how you classify bands. Let's all argue about genres some more because it is SOOOOOooo important to classify music!
When I say hardcore I don't mean "mindless metal" if I didn't already make myself clear on the fact I like music with something important to say.

:D You're gettin' boring now dude. Try and get used to the idea your opinion, like mine... 'aint really worth shit. So you don't like Liferuiner... fine. Did you really need to make so much noise about it?

Genre labels, as I've already said in this thread a couple of times are, in my opinion, really dumb, so I'm not sure what your obsession with 'hardcore' is all about. It can mean any bloody thing.

Most of us like music that 'say's' something to us, important or otherwise. You've yet to learn we all have different stories to tell, and so, different things are important to each of us. This is what makes me see you as extremely immature and/or very young. Listening to some pimply teen talk as if they've suddenly worked out the mysteries of the universe is amusing at first, but soon gets boring.

Quit while you're ahead mate! :naughty1:

no one is trying to classify genres here, this is just for heavy breakdowns. classifying genres is exactly what should not happen here. thanks for the requests on bands, i will check them out. i respect your opinion about not liking liferuiner, but your reasons seem odd. as far as their breakdwons just being for the fuck of it, how do you figure theirs are like that and others are not? this is a serious question.

goitalone
4th-March-2009, 04:36 AM
hahah dude, you're taking me WAY too seriously, take it easy.
and yeah i totally respect the whole different tastes in music thing. i have friends that for some weird reason like the band Liferuiner and i give them a hard time about it, so yeah. of course im gonna come in here and poke fun. weird how someone came onto a messageboard and shared their opinion!!!
but bands making music to gain popularity and scene points are what i hate about hardcore. i guess ive been involved in "the scene" for far too long and those kinds of bands just brutally bore me, i'm bitter! but if i havent said it already, thats MY opinion. I think it's way too easy for bands to pick up instruments and write songs about straight edge and bros these days and insert breakdowns randomly.
i just mentioned the genre thing because for a couple pages before it was genre talk blah blah blah
but enough of this petty argument...

also worth checking out is the band Cursed. Not too many random breakdowns like you might be interested but definitely some good "heavy" music to look into.
check out pulling teeth

Also, Go It Alone = one of my favourite bands (not really HEAVY heavy but definitely worth checking out). yeaaaaaah.

i like breakdowns as much as the next guy

i kind of agree with that goitalone dude bands arent very creative now a days its become "two step riff here, cool little circle pit here, and a breakdown, everyone agree?"

bands like as i lay dying, unearth, and august burns red get points for creativity and talent. bands like suicide silence get points for breakdown after breakdown and very little creativity in the songs in turn they fail

born of osiris is another band with breakdown after breakdown but theyre off beat breakdowns that sound heavy, technical and difficult as hell to play.

bands that have good breakdowns that i really like are obviously born of osiris, as i lay dying, august burns red, beneath the massacre has some good ones too, despised icon and terror of course lol

Kenshi
8th-September-2009, 02:38 PM

i defintatly know what you guys are saying about just throwing in breakdowns for the fun of it, but that is exactly what august burns red did on messengers, im personally not complaining, but i was surprised to hear you talk of them, born of osiris is good stuff though. Suicide silence is fairly technical and don't have that many breakdowns, and by far the best heavy vocalist i have ever seen live.

lately ive been listening to more beatdown stuff bands like

What? No, I suppose not? Sorry, not quite sure what point you were making with that. Though I do realize that there is a huge difference between "hardcore" and "purebreakdownagecore."
But there's hardcore in the thread title which is why I bring it up.
Also Gallows are as mainstream hardcore as you can get. Not really what I mean when I say "hardcore." (Though I have never really given Gallows a fair listen, and I have no clue who Shadows Fall is...)

My band just got booked with them in december.

oh, and beneath the massacre.
never heard of them either.

WHAT!?!?!?

YOUR BAND GOT BOOKED WITH THE FACELESS, DYING FETUS AND BENEATH THE MASSACRE?!?!?! I FUCKING LOVE THOSE GUYS! You must be in the Planetary Depravity Tour for Dying Fetus' new album!

You got booked with four amazing technical death metal bands! Where'd you get booked? (Also, you are uploading a recording of the concert.)


(Edit: was thinking of between the buried and me when I said metalcore. They're also tech death too. Also, checked out Annotations of an Autopsy. They're great.)

Its at the Meridian in Houston.
Are those bands really that big?
I don't listen to that kind of stuff, I wouldn't know.
A friend of mine acted just as surprised as you when i mentioned all those bands. haha

I would be so psyched, you're sooo lucky. I wish I lived in Texas and my parental units actually knew and approved of me listening to technical death metal... :( What a sad life I lead :rolleyes:

Nah man its cool.
I guess im surprised i've never heard of those bands.
I think someone was wearing a The Faceless t shirt at my show the other day though.
Can't remember.
We're probably going to get death metaled out of the venue.

Yeah, better write some crazy complicated guitar and bass parts and get a tech-death drummer so you don't get booed off the stage! :D Hey, impress a few scouters, and you might get yourself a label! :D

lol its not like we're on the tour. we're the second to last opening band, homeboy :)
i wouldn't ever want to tour with those bands.
My perfect ideal tour would be
Us with maybe A Day To Remember and ParkWay Drive.
We are compared to those bands the most.
