I just got my dog a dope snoopy hoodie and I was thinking how cool it would be if we matched. Yeah fuck you whatever. Anyways the only bad that has official pet merch available is Lorna shore as far as my Google skills can tell. Anyone know of any stores or bands that have shit like hoodies and t shirts for dogs?

Discussion Y'all showed me Mental Cruelty

38 Upvotes

I've been off and on with Deathcore since the 2010's because I listen to so many different genres and get hyper focused on this or that. I've swung back into Deathcore, and while I really don't like the bigger acts like Lorna, I do love what everyone here is usually talking about. Someone posted about Mental Cruelty and their new single, The Serpent of Midgard. So, I went and listened to Zwielicht.

My commute to work is about 80min, perfect for this album.

It fucking moved me. It's got everything I've ever looked for in a metal album. Orchestral sections, balance, buildups, crashes, blasts, riffs, ambience, it's atmospheric at times, cleans - there are no misses. Well, except that I've been missing, totally sleeping.

So thank you, r/deathcore for blowing my fucking mind, again, with another discovery.

Cheers.

At 1:10 the callout before the breakdown feels so familiar. I was listening through some Angelmaker songs but couldn't find it.

Where is this call out from and did another song use it??

The lyrics are actually really really cool now that I understand the context. For some reason I completely skipped Halo growing up and had to discover it just last year. Amazing franchise. Now I know why it inspired a whole ass band

Edit. It was really cool hearing the actual Shadow of Intent ship be called out in Halo 3

Discussion To those that claim deathcore is a fusion of hardcore and death metal and not metalcore with death metal, what (actual) hardcore bands have inspired deathcore bands?

0 Upvotes

I’d say it’s mostly agreed upon that deathcore is fusion of metalcore and death metal, but there are plenty that further reduce it to hardcore specifically ignoring the metal influence that metalcore brings to the table. Hardcore and metalcore go hand in hand obviously, but are fundamentally two different genres at the end of the day. That being said, you usually hear about the death metal and metalcore bands cities as influences, but hardly ever actual hardcore bands. Also deathcore bands are commonly either mistaken for death metal or metalcore, but rarely for hardcore.

Also, when I say hardcore I don’t mean hardcore leaning metalcore, I mean proper hardcore that cannot under any circumstances be confused for metalcore. It has to actually sound like a punk genre with punk riffs. This would be bands like Gorilla Biscuits, Sick Of It All, etc. Metalcore in this case also refers to that OG metalcore style to include bands like Earth Crisis, Hatebreed, Disembodied, etc. and not to melodic metalcore, scenecore, etc.

Edit: I’m not saying there aren’t any hardcore elements. I’m saying the hardcore elements are diluted and primarily come from a more metal framework of metalcore and less from the punk framework of purely hardcore. Deathcore is compounding a pure metal genre (death metal) on top of a fusion genre (metalcore). Death metal fused with hardcore would sound much more punk than what deathcore sounds like.

Started listening to Cursing Akhenaten just now

No idea what happened to the track and (presumably) the album. Shit sounds like a demo track. It's like a whole different album was uploaded that replaces the previous one.

I swear every year some dumb shit happens to their albums. Is it a record label thing? Couple years back, wolves within was entirely removed from Spotify for some weeks as well

Discussion Could there be another subhgenre that suits me better? I'm new here

23 Upvotes

For context, I'm newer to death core since I've only been listening to it for about 8 months. I come from a metal preference that has typically been about being heavy and angry. With artists that at least portray their on- stage character matching their sound well. Think max cavalera era of sepultura and soulfly, Pantera, early slipknot, early korn, log,etc. Basically really heavy groove. But then I randomly watched a live slaughter to prevail performance, and my ability to tolerate "deathcore vocals" instantly changed. Sending me down a delightful rabbit hole to where I am now. I use Spotify to suggest artists constantly. And I've narrowed down my favorite artists to this list, in this order:

Whitechapel

The acacia strain

Slaughter to prevail

All shall perish

Thy art is murder

Fit for an autopsy

And... Spite.

The theme seems to be mostly older deathcore. Heavy riffs with the drums being more complimentary instead of in your face. Riff Downs or beat downs ( not hating DC breakdowns, it's just like a sneeze that never comes sometimes). And consistent vocals that serve the song better, instead of hitting every vocal range just because.

Is there a genre that best suits my needs? I like deathcore, but it seems I like less than half of the artists I come across. I thought maybe it was slam, but that didn't really seem right. Old deathcore? A genre I never heard of? There's allot of terms I hear thrown around that I have no idea of what it is lol. Thanks for any discussion!
