If you ever want some recs for metalcore then hit me up. I can at least find something that isn't garbage. You liked Zao, right? If you can like Zao then I can at least find something for you. Just sayin'.

I'll bear it in mind, but given what I've heard so far, I think I'd rather have my tongue removed by a spoon while listening to a continuous loop of Jacob Sartorius!

Why though? Metalcore isn't the most diverse genre but it does at least have diversity. Just tell me if this song does anything for you and I can guess if you don't like the more direct, non-complex ****.



And if you just so happen to want to hear some of the metalcore that defined the early genre while being more offbeat and interesting.... srsly though any fan of metal who hasn't heard this basically has an incomplete knowledge of metal. This is one of the albums to not hear if you want to be a mindless twat who hates 2000s metalcore with no knowledge of what it can be when it's done right.

Yeah.. if I care for either (which I really don't) then it's the Unbroken one. The other I have no interest in. In fact, I really doubt I can be interested into this genre at all. It just says nothing to me and does nothing for me.

damn, i’m pretty indifferent on the new Code Orange but i definitely didnt expect that. it’s a lot more accessible than their previous work so I figured you might actually like it.

You figured wrong. What in the name of Satan made you think I would like that? As Occult would say, to me, it's hot garbage. I'd rather listen to the long drawn-out death rattle of a man suffering from terminal flatulence.

hey, 2/3 isn’t too bad now is it?

No. I'll let you away with that one. And in fairness, I should have reviewed it as part of the list anyway so it's kind of not really your fault my ears were assaulted by that ... um ... um ... what shall I call it? Noise?
