137. Despised Icon Genre (Deathcore), Quebec Canada, era: modern and

Obey the Brave Genre (Metalcore), Quebec Canada era: Modern

Arise & Ruin Genre (Metalcore), Ontario Canada, era: Modern

I am a fan of American death metal, so I believe that if you're going to borrow heavily from another musical genre (ie R&B artists sampling 80's tunes) than you should do it better or not at all!!! I understand that deathcore is a hybrid genre, but I have yet to hear anything from bands like Whitechapel, Red Chord, or Job for a Cowboy, that sounds as near as good as Deicide or Cannibal Corpse. The number of deathcore bands on this list are therefore few and far between, here is one of them.

It should be noted that Despised Icon are no more, but their spirit lives on in metalcore act Obey the Brave, and while I am here, I mind as well add another Canadian metalcore act that is poser free.





Obey the Brave - Live and Learn



Arise & Ruin - Forever Damned
