Parkway Drive - "Deep Blue" (2010)


Deep Blue is what you get when you mix Parkway Drives' last two albums AND their EP. I'd like to call it another one of 2010's best releases. The album caught me off-guard when I first peeped it but then it's originality hit me after a few listens. Breakdowns are as heavy as ever, solos provide justice, and the vocals well, they just got better. One thing that didn't change was the odd lyrics PWD loves to use but I never looked down on them, they actually interest me.

1. Samsara (1:45)
2. Unrest (2:19)
3. Sleepwalker (4:01)**
4. Wreckage (3:21)
5. Deadweight (3:47)
6. Alone (4:30)
7. Pressures (3:22)
8. Deliver Me (4:13)***
9. Karma (3:49)
10. Home is for the Heartless (4:08)
11. Hollow (3:00)
12. Leviathan I (3:49)*
13. Set to Destroy (1:34)

Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! - "Something for Nothing" (2010)


Brought to the table is what would be labeled a clash of genres....metal, pop punk, hardcore, chunkcore.......naw, I'm just kiddin' about the 'chunkcore'. On a serious note, this album is another beaut from 2010. Catchy, to describe it in its' all, is the key to this album (along with the usual characteristics of °br00talness). You might have to get over the hump concerning C!NCC!'s vocals (and perhaps the lyrics based on friendship and your 'brothers'). They re-released it in 2011 and possibly will I have it up in the near future. Check up on that.....and this entire album, pronto.

1. Born of Adversity (2:56)
2. In Friends with Trust (3:27)***
3. Positiv-o (3:22)
4. We Fell Fast (4:31)
5. Time's Up! (3:53)
6. Summer Heat (3:09)*
7. Sink or Swim (4:21)**
8. Life (3:43)
9. Captain Blood (3:19)
10. For All We Know (2:51)
11. Milf (3:58)
12. Xoxo (2:58)





°br00talness; - what is considered a high level of brutality.



Buried In Verona - "Saturday Night Sever" (2010)


Remember all those bands you heard in 2010? If Buried in Verona isn't on that list then what the fuck are you waiting for? This is the best metalcore you will hear for awhile. Breakdowns, catchy riffs, melodic choruses...you want it, you got it. Saturday Night Sever is one of those albums you overlook but when you feast your ears onto it, you are quite surprised you almost did indeed skip listening to it.

1. The End (4:25)
2. Temptress (3:47)**
3. Saturday Night Sever (4:03)
4. Professor Plum in the Ballroom with the Candlestick (3:02)
5. Hangin' Hoes by their Toes (3:32)*
6. Go Go Gadget Suicide (3:36)
7. Rohypnol Suicide (4:07)
8. Bell Ringer (3:25)
9. You Left Me with No Goodbye (3:55)***
10. Cut Wrists and Sinking Ships (3:35)
11. The Beginning (3:24)

With Passion - "What We See When We Shut Our Eyes" (2007)


This is Conducting From The Grave before their first EP and just by listen to the technicality, you can tell. It was a great find finding this album because I couldn't get enough of CFTG's technical riffage, this just opened up more, fresh goodness for my collection. Enjoy.

We Came as Romans - "To Plant a Seed" (2009)


Some of the softer stuff I'm jamming to lately. It's not necessarily soft but clean vocals are present a decent amount. Still packed with nice breakdowns and some interesting riffs. All the tracks are pretty good but "Dreams" stands out most for me.

The Crimson Armada - "Guardians" (2009)

The Acacia Strain - "3750" (2004)

 
What a sexy fucking album. Starts off with the most brutal song you will ever hear, continues onto the melodic song, Smoke Ya Later and then topping it off with the instrumental track, Halycon. It's just pure heroin for your ears.

Viatrophy - "Self-Titled" (2009)



Melodic, upbeat, technical, brutal. I have no clue how such characteristics always fit into one metal genre. It's just so fucking brutal, that's why. Can't remember any of the good tracks so just freeball it and figure it out yourself.

1. Lux E Tenebris (1:33)
2. Mistress of Misery (3:35)

Sea of Treachery - "At Daggers Drawn" (2008)


Pretty fuckin' sick artwork for this sweet deathcore band. This album was just a remake of their first album, "The First Eulogy", which I'm guessing was self-released and this was once they got with a label. Every song is sexy as hell but be sure to check out "Unleash The Serpents".

1. The First Eulogy (0:51)
2. Purging of the Wicked (4:42)
3. Unleash the Serpents (3:33)

Miss May I - "Apologies Are For The Weak" (2009)


Definitely one of the best metalcore bands out. Surprisingly, their riffs aren't that unoriginal as they are pretty melodic tagged along with breakdowns and clean choruses. Finding this band was probably one of my greatest discoveries as they have been out for quite some time. Check out the chorus in "Forgive and Forget" and pretty much any other song is THE shit.

1. A Dance With Aera Cura (3:19)
2. Architect (4:07)
3. Not Our Tomorrow (3:12)
4. Arms of the Messiah (3:15)
5. Apologies Are For The Weak (3:12)

Ligeia - "Bad News" (2008)



Unfortunately, this band broke up but they left behind their best CD, in my opinion. Compared to their others, I think this one really stands out. Once I heard "I've Been Drinking" and "One Night Stand", I've enjoyed their music since.

1. Bad News (3:42)
2. Johnny Cash (3:11)
3. I've Been Drinkin' (2:30)
4. Hot Mess (2:20)

Broadcast The Nightmare - "Twenty Twelve" (2009)



Known this band for quite awhile and this album is extremely good for a first release. I consider this band technical to a point and they put out some catchy riffs, 2-step-like breakdowns, and meaningful arpeggios tagged along with soft vocals which can be noted at 2:10 on the track "Hades Rising" which goes on until the end almost and is sweet. Grave Danger also explains the 2-step-like breakdowns.

1. Unsung Hero (3:13)
2. Anosognosia (4:13)
3. Viking Funeral (3:11)
4. Clone Ocean (3:31)
5. Shepherd's Prayer (3:28)

For Today - "Ekklesia" (2008)

10. With A Passion Burning (5:10)

Molotov Solution - "The Harbinger" (2009)

Conducting From The Grave - "When Legends Become Dust" (2009)

For The Fallen Dreams - "Relentless" (2009)

Destroy The Runner - "I, Lucifer" (2008)

Whisteria Cottage - "Heathen" (2009)


New deathcore band out on the scene. Not too many people have heard of them yet. They very much do have potential. Surprisingly, for their first album, it sounds good so I'm guessing they're in a decent studio already.

Viatrophy - "Chronicles" EP (2007)


A technical band that has a lot of potential towards the deathcore scene. I'm suprised they have only made this EP in 2007 and haven't released a full album yet. No clue why but have a listen:


1. In The Hope of Something Safe (1:56)
2. Chronicles (4:51)
3. Draining What Remains (4:30)
4. Force of Destruction (5:50)
5. Plague of the Elected (4:21)
6. Misanthropes (4:16)

It Prevails - "Capture and Embrace" (2009)


Don't like too many hardcore bands but this one is excellent. Reminds me of a For The Fallen Dreams but lighter, minus the excessive breakdowns.


1. Today is Yesterday's Tomorrow (3:00)
2. Brothers to the Flames (3:20)
3. Refusing to Live Under the Tyranny of Others (4:00)
4. The Greatest Reward (3:07)

9. A Martyrs Journey (3:35)
10. Capture and Embrace (3:20)

Eternal Lord - "Blessed Be This Nightmare" (2008)


Semi-new deathcore band. Pretty sweet band if you ask me. The vocals are Edward Butcher of I Killed The Prom Queen (R.I.P). I personally didn't like the sound of them when in IKTPQ but they fit nicely in with this genre.


1. Hot To Trot (1:01)
2. Get To Fuck (3:36)
3. Set Your Anchor (3:50)
4. Wasps (3:12)
5. All Time High (4:15)

I Declare War - "What You Deserve" (2006)


This album was definitely recorded in a low-end studio. Highly doubt if it even was a studio. If you're a fan of old school recordings, this is for you. It's not all that bad :P.

2. Through the Eyes of the Killer (3:07)
3. Not The End (3:10)

8. Don't Give Up (3:54)

My Children My Bride - "Unbreakable" (2008)


Pretty sweet band. Mostly full of breakdowns, 2-step riffs, and metalcore type riffs. I've already destroyed this album by listening to it too much and can't wait for a new one.

2. On Wings of Integrity (2:41)
3. The Machinist (4:04)

August Burns Red - "Thrill Seeker" (2005)


ABR is definitely my all-time favorite metal band. This album isn't as good as Messenger but is still great. The singer was a different guy for this album but to me, they both sound the same. Enjoy melodic riffs and off-beat breakdowns :).

2. Speech Impediment (4:01)
3. Barbarian (3:45)

11. The Seventh Trumpet (8:12)

All That Remains - "This Darkened Heart" (2004)


My favorite All That Remains album. A lot more technical than their new albums. This Darkened Heart is definitely the best song off the album followed by Passion.

2. The Deepest Gray (3:09)
3. Vicious Betrayal (4:19)
4. I Die in Degrees (3:30)

Rose Funeral - "The Resting Sonata" (2009)


And I thought their first album was the shit. This is the meaning of the word "brutal" fellas. Much better recording than the first album and just better breakdowns, riffs, and everything in general.

It Dies Today - "Sirens" (2006)

3. Sacre Coeur (3:13)

Carnifex - "Dead In My Arms" (2007)
