Yea Spotify told me to check it out and I was like 'wait that other edge kid from Florida listens to that shit' so I did check it out. It's fun. Great for working out and for running. Wish it was a little longer though. U should check out the new field of flames btw. It's edge, it's got riffs, it's pissed off. Should be your ballpark.

initally i was so-so, but come heroine, lament, reminders, limelight, a broadcast, savoring, ill be your host and deflector are fantastic. rest works in quite well also. the transparent splatter vinyl tickles all my hipsterkinksports, too. my only points off are on the first few songs, where i sometimes feel that the drums don't quite get the point of the song, feel off or a little over the top. but all in all, i'm a fan. not surprised, because i'm a fanboy after all, but hey. the final judgment is still out there, obviously, i feel like it's a strong album but i'm not quite sure yet if it's strong enough to fully compete for album of the year. i dont have a whole lot on that list as of now, but what i have is strong.

savouring in particular stands out as one of their hallmark all-time bests; "you make me resolvable when upside down or impossible". riffing is clutch as always, vocals are impressive, i cant wait for this whole covid thing to calm down and touché amoré to play shows with the new material (or, covid to erase 90% of human population and me being part of a gruelling, violent and terrorizing rebuild of a new society. i'll be the old hog at the campfire telling horror stories about capitalism.)

That's a lot of Prurient plays! Very cool, as are the rest of your charts, and your pfp.

its especially rude because i stuck to the same avatar for like 2 years or so. i intentionally changed my avatar a while before switching the name so people had at least a chance at getting used to it but i knew it was gonna be confusing i was confused as fuck by everyone who changed their name too. probably plays a part that after like 13 years on this platform you can fucking finally change ur username :)

enemies in red is just straight up ridiculous. fucking hell. i have some respect for you having a thing for those cleans, but fuck those cleans in particular. i really hope that a possible EP or album stick with the vocal style of enemies in red. if they get that done, i'm a fan.

okay on second consideration, there's clearly an effect applied to the vocals. no way this is her live voice. also, the clean vocals on autumn's final sun are the most dealbreaking dealbreaker i've ever heard. nothing against clean vocals, but those completely ruin the song. holy shit.

man i wish there still was a hardcore scene around here. a bunch of kids used to jam around here, dogchains, gone to waste, risk it!, world eater, wolf down (when they still were cool and not rapists) and all that kinda stuff, but there's litte of this stuff left. imma sift through your stuff, ecostike definitely has ecostruck a nerve with me so far.

ive never listened to ffaa and ive also quite outgrown the deathcore genre as a whole, but that album stuck with me for sure. along with the new release from shadow of intent it looks a bit like two deathcore albums might make it into my yearly top 10, which is roughly three deathcore albums more than i expected the list to have. so yeah, i think it's worth a shot either way.

Full of Hell is quite the monster I expected it to be. I'm heaving a tough time going through some of the more Noise-ish parts, but man, there's so much intensity there. A kick in the guts describes it quite well. Other than Full of Hell, what's good in 2019? Yeah, oddly not that crazy much. One thing I really, really loved is the new output by Vale of Pnath, Accursed. An extremely dense mix of Technical Death Metal and Black Metal that really hits home for me. The Darkest Gate and Obsidian Realm stand out here. Inanimate Existence's new record was decent, but I arguably need a couple more spins to really judge the record. I also liked the new La Dispute. It certainly isn't Somewhere at the Bottom... but there's a couple of really good ones on the record. There's probably some I'm overlooking...?

the new Downfall of Gaia is most certainly going to be in my top 10 of the year, no matter what else is gonna come this year. an immense masterwork on the boundaries of crust and black metal. the grotesque illusion of being, we pursue the serpent of time, as our bones break to the dance and of withering violet leaves all are very, very good. definitely worth your time if you like "crust-influenced black metal". new fallujah was a bit of a letdown. havent checked into the new defeater yet.

The Wonder Years are a very emotional band for me. When I went to Canada for an exchange semester, my then-girlfriend broke up with me a day before my plane took off. I listened to The Wonder Years for almost the entire flight, and, together with a couple of other bands, The Wonder Years was an integral band in the soundtrack for the half year to follow, defined by fairly clichée college parties, bruises from Hockey games and Domino's Pizza. I have never really gone crazy on them afterwards, but I've recently been moving towards Hardcore and Pop-Punk again, and... the Wonder Years belong in there. The Devil in My Bloodstream is a song I'll always hold dear. Great band.

Look I don't know if your current mood has any space for Atmospheric-Sounds-A-Bit-Like-Deathspell-Omega-But-Also-Not Black Metal, but if you do, you have to listen to Regarde Les Hommes Tomber's Exile. The album is absurd. And while you're at it, listen to The Great Old Ones' EOD: A Tale of Dark Legacy too. I don't know how much you're into that, but... it's just something that I wanted to drop in. Haven't heard from you in a while, eh?

Go with Incantation's Onward to Golgotha. It's their first album and it's their best album to start off with.

So yesterday the Full of Hell show in the squatted house happened. That was the most intense and cathartic live show I've seen since Converge, if not ever. Crushing. Cleansing. Backbreaking. Mindmelting. Their music drives a nail deep into your consciousness and won't let go until you either succumb and crumble or re-emerge with a different way to look at things. Completely surreal. I'm still not even close to fully processing what happened last night.

they play in some left-wing radical little house in my town. it's been squatted for 25 years now, and they have crustpunk shows there every now and then. it's a pretty cool location if you wanna be 100% that neither nazis nor assholes will show up. and if you're immune to dying to smog. cuz place is tiny and they all smoke. regrading $B: this' tough. for one, they dont really have albums. so it's super hard to say, since each release has like 3 or 4 songs and that's it. also, they have a shitton of material. but here's my fave songs: $outh $ide $uicide, Aphrodite (The Aquatic Ape Theory), Kill Yoursel (Pt. III), LTE, Paris, Ultimate $uicide (a track with denzel curry), memoirs of a gorilla, Fema Champs, do you believe in god?, mount sinai... there's a fuckton. I'm just gonna link you my $uicideboy$ playlist in case you're on spotify or whatever ... tada: https://open.spotify.com/user/johnny_baggins/playlist/0ArznYhDP0o3ZlX9p6LJAZ?si=BA6EumSbSgeupLqRq8l-pQ

might jam some full of hell sometime soon. they play my city and i kinda gotta get back into the material in order to slap some bitches unconscious in the pit. okay, realistically i'll stand leaned back to some wall smoking a joint or two while nodding along with the "beat". but that's the same, i need to know the lyrics for that. i actually don't need to know the lyrics for either of these things.

Did you ever check out the Mgła-records Exercises in Futility and With Hearts Toward None? I'm not entirely sure if they're your style, but they're two of the best records I've ever heard. Both have this sound that's dripping with power and energy, but at the same time they're cold, so very, very cold that you can feel the blistering cold creep up into your face and further down into your body, making you shiver with every riff. Mgła has one-in-a-million instrumentation, probably the best guitars and drums in the entire extreme metal sub-genre if you ask me. And then there's the vocals which not only are more on-point and crisp than anything in Black Metal that I know, combined with this perfect darkness and desperation that's in them, it's just so fucking good. Round that off with a set of the best lyrics that have ever been written in the entirety of music and you get Mgła. If you can imagine giving Nihilist Black Metal from Poland a shot, do it. I can't imagine you'd regret it.

I don't know what your stance on For the Fallen Dreams is, but I didn't like them. Their music was too cheesy 90% of the time, but their new record slaps. It's agressive and well-produced while still having nicely made melodic parts and some of the better cleans I've heard in the entire something-core subgenre since Architects. I really think the album is a ton better than everything else I've hear by them, it's almost Heart of A Cowards level. I reckon you might wanna check that out, it really surprised me.

Ey ho, how's life? Been stumbling around on this magnificent website and ran into your profile yeat again. Been once again amazed how awesome your music choices are, but then I've been wondering, what's with The Acacia Strain? Doesn't quite seem to fit the rest of the music, considered it's tagged as Deathcore. Is that more of relic of the past or is Acacia Strain actually good Deathcore? Don't get me wrong here, I've been a huge fan of deathcore for a large part of my life, but I've been rather down on it since quite a while. I still dig a bigger part of Carnifex' disco (Until I Feel Nothing, Die Without Hope and Slow Death all have some absurdly good songs on them) Also the No Time To Bleed has some of the best downtempo/atmospheric deathcore songs ever, Genocide, Disengage, Smoke and Suffer are unreal. But somehow still a deathcore band doesn't quite fit your profile in a sense - unless they're super fucking good? I don't know Acacia Strain and I wondered if I might be missing out.
