Default The Batlord's Thread of Metalcore that Doesn't Suck but In Fact ****ing Rules

I'm only just getting into this genre as of yesterday, so this isn't going to be some educational thread by an expert, but since this music is generally so maligned due to the likes of Killswitch Engage, Trivium, As I Lay Dying, etc, I'm going to document my own musical journey in order to hopefully redeem metalcore in the eyes of the forum, possibly with some history of bands/scenes, reviews, or just spotlights on specific bands with a few Youtube recs to introduce them to the curious. Imma keep it lose. More to come.

And I imagine Mondo will show up to drop some knowledge. More power to him. He needs to drop musical bombs more often anyway.
