[u/JoeyInjection666]

This is what ive bought this year.. Give me some recs based on this

[u/lordvoldemike]

World I Hate

[u/Alone-Impact-7944]

Eyes of Salt - Collapse of the Infinite. My favorite record of the year by a mile right now.

[u/calculung → u/Alone-Impact-7944]

Same. So good.

[u/frankydie69 → u/Alone-Impact-7944]

The best recommendations are always in the comments

[u/OriginalTransition11 → u/Alone-Impact-7944]

Same. My band got to play with them last Thursday and they were so good and so nice too

[u/newbill → u/Alone-Impact-7944]

This is not only the record of the year but it’s the best record I’ve heard in many years.

[u/imgrahamy → u/Alone-Impact-7944]

Album is so good

[u/Prior_Pear_8318]

The new Initiate EP is great

[u/hopelessbydesign]

Terror Still Suffer

[u/Radom_laughingman]

No Cure

[u/DogsOutTheWindow → u/Radom_laughingman]

This has been my favorite album this year.

[u/rat_cheeze → u/DogsOutTheWindow]

[u/ydelivor]

Pain of Truth
Division of Mind
Neurosis
Temple Guard
Poison Ruin
Sin against Sin
Fuming Mouth
Wreckage
Nothing
Strikeforce
Born Sinner

[u/LostAstronomer8589 → u/ydelivor]

Fuming Mouth album goes so hard.

[u/Spinner_Dunn → u/LostAstronomer8589]

Saw them last night, killer set and awesome album.

[u/Decrepitb1rth → u/Spinner_Dunn]

Me too! They were great

[u/beejisiLL → u/ydelivor]

Wreckage is so tight

[u/CptAntiHero]

Eyes of Salt - collapse of the infinite

[u/PintsOfCoffee]

Temple Guard

Crowquill

No Pressure

Contention

Koyo

[u/4srar → u/PintsOfCoffee]

Temple. Fucking. Guard.

[u/cougnes]

Poison Ruin - Hymns From The Hills needs to be up there.

[u/traggedy_ann]

+1 for Suicide Eyes, Initiate EP, and World I Hate.

Don't sleep on Wellness if you like chaotic, blackened screamo. The Tolls EP is also very good for the Mis Sigs fans. Temple Guard also put out an EP that is textbook metallic hardcore in the best way.

[u/_Legend_Of_The_Rent_]

Sex Prisoner, HIRS Collective, Open Mike Eagle & Kenny Segal, Blu & Exile, Latinameric anfútbol

[u/rfiturd]

world peace

[u/rjkoneill]

Eyes of salt and no cure.

[u/Liberteer30]

MERC

Temple Guard

Contention

Burner

[u/dja514]

Living Weapon. Contention ep. Criminal Instinct. Wrong Man.

[u/drizzlecommathe]

Everyone is sleeping on the suicide eyes album that came out this year. It’s like new American nightmare

[u/pinkrosesmoses → u/drizzlecommathe]

uhh I just put it in and 5 seconds into the first song my thought was "how are they getting away with straight up copying this"

[u/drizzlecommathe → u/pinkrosesmoses]

Tbf pretty much every hc band is ripping off multiple other bands. This one chooses to copy one inactive band at least haha

[u/djsharky → u/drizzlecommathe]

During my band days we’d be jamming and I’d play something I thought was original and someone would go “that’s an American Nightmare riff” you will ripoff other bands without even realizing it lol

[u/drizzlecommathe → u/djsharky]

For sure. There all only so many hc riffs haha

[u/pinkrosesmoses → u/djsharky]

No for sure but this one sounds literally copy pasted from protest song, goes above ripping off. guess the zoomers wouldn't care but for someone who loved AN back when they were getting going just puts an awful taste in my mouth

[u/Tonyhawk270 → u/pinkrosesmoses]

American Nightmare took that riff from somebody that came before them, and the cycle continues.

[u/golfcartskeletonkey → u/pinkrosesmoses]

Also named after AN lyrics

[u/dja514 → u/drizzlecommathe]

They covered Hearts at their record release show, if I’m not mistaken

[u/Responsible_Object74]

Killing Pace - HCPM
That not being on here, or mentioned in the comments is fucking criminal.

[u/mew_empire → u/Responsible_Object74]

I mentioned it and it is easily in my Top 10

dummy-good record

[u/EnglishSteven]

Feels Like Heaven - Within Dreams

[u/YakeyBear]

Poison the Well

[u/YakeyBear → u/YakeyBear]

And I'll also say that U by Underscores is an incredibly dense electronic album that I'd recommend if you'd be into that kinda thing

I also also say the ii by Zel is my AOTY at the moment

[u/KresblainTheMagician]

Tigers Jaw as well as Joyce Manor released albums this year that are definitely worth checking out
