favorite hardcore/metalcore records...
 

from the era 1994 to 2000. i'm ending it at 2000 because that's when it started to REALLY suck.

my list:
1. reversal of man- "revolution summer"
2. cave in- "until your heart stops"
3. snapcase- "steps" ep
4. converge- "petitioning the empty sky"
5. creation is crucifixion- "in_silco"
6. XXX comp (put out by ebullition)
7. the swarm- "old blue eyes is dead" ep
8. chokehold- "content with dying"
9. earth crisis- "firestorm"
10. scrog- "diSCROGaphy" (just for tampa's sake. i couldn't think of anything else)

I missed out on this subgenre. will check some out

If it's ending at 2000 then you can't include Converge's Jane Doe!

does will haven count as this type of stuff?

and is moshcore the same thing as metalcore?

yes they do.

yeah basically. when i think moshcore i think earth crisis, hatebreed, throwdown and stuff like that.

well another reason i ended it at 2000 is because i started to lose interest in most of the music. well it might've been 2001. i did like that album though. you can include it if you want.

i really like will haven, but never really got round to checking out any other bands in the genre

swing kids
heroin

dillinger escape plan - calculating infinity

albums?

oh well fuck if we're going to mention swing kids and heroin, we have to mention angel hair

...

and ORCHID!!!!!!!!!!!

nora
drowningman
martyr ad
the cost
snapcase

well, i guess i should've mentioned screamo. i hate that term though. i just thought if people saw reversal of man they would know i ment more than just the popular hardcore of that time.

True.

Orchid is definitely my favorite of those bands. Oh, and Employee, Employee..

oh man, I can't believe I haven't mentioned Yaphet Kotto. One of the best bands ever!

i liked orchid's "choas is me", but anything else i thought was just boring. yaphet kotto was a good one.

i really liked frail and portraits of the past.

Since you like the swarm, I assume you like forcefed glass?

Saetia were amazing.

My favorite hardcore band BY FAR (though I think they came after 2000) is Tragedy.

i really liked the force fed glass/swarm split. mostly because the swarm's black flag cover.

saetia were overrated i thought, but had some amazing songs. yeah i liked tragedy a lot.

Union of Uranus, Three Studies For A Crucifixion, Assuck, Swallowing Shit, Man is the Bastard, Shotmaker. atsonicpark, you're probably familiar with His Hero Is Gone (members formed Tragedy) but if not, they're certainly worth checking out. i prefer them but Tragedy are killer
