Metalcore

Facedown records is a label most would associate with hardcore. That is what makes “Hope for the Dying” such an anomaly. They are a band that plays with hardcore bands every night, but is firmly rooted in progressive metal. On this episode of Discography Discussion, Dan and Joe attempt to make sense of each complicated slab of metal that Hope for the Dying throws down. Enjoy! #discussmetal #HopeForTheDying

OMG its Oh, Sleeper! On this episode of Discography Discussion, Dan and Joe dive into one of Dan’s favorite Solid State bands. Dan claims everything the band does is pure gold, while Joe airs his reservations. Did the band hide references to the original Doom games in their second album? What is it about Oh, Sleeper that makes them unique in a sea of imitators? Find out, and enjoy. #discussmetal #OhSleeper

It’s hard work being an unpleasable metal fan. On one hand, we love it when a band sticks to their guns and has a consistent sound. But, it’s easy to get bored with a band who always does the same thing. After all, variety is the spice of life. On this episode of Discography Discussion, Dan, Joe, and Josh try to decide if The Black Dahlia Murder’s lack of variety is a good thing, or just more of the same. Enjoy. #discussmetal #TheBlackDahliaMurder

Some musicians never reach the level of success that their first big band achieved. When a musician attempts to start over fresh they can sometimes be bogged down by their previous reputation. On this episode of Discography Discussion, we ask is DevilDriver another one of those bands? Dan, Joe, and Josh don’t think so, and may even prefer DevilDriver over Coal Chamber. #discussmetal #DevilDriver

Did you know that makeup and carnivals are actually really scary? We are dreadfully aware of this fact, and in order to make sense of the Swedish metal band Avatar, we had to call Geoff out of retirement to explain it. Had Avatar always planned on being a band strong on image, and small on substance? Or did they actually start out as one of Sweden’s premier melodic death metal bands? Find out on this episode of Discography Discussion. #discussmetal #Avatar

In the early 2000s, and in the wake of Living Sacrifice breaking up, a number of emerging Christian metal bands competed to take the same mantle. The Showdown was one of these bands that started with an early fire, yet found their voice in a collection of searing riffs and southern tinged melodies. Did they succeed?

This week on Discography Discussion we bring you a full breakdown of Between The Buried And Me. Are they the most innovative band ever? Or are they just a bag of tricks? Adult contemporary death metal never sounded so good. Enjoy! #discussmetal #BetweenTheBuriedAndMe #BTBAM

Some bands spend most of their career trying to carve out their fanbase by steadily building upon what made them a big hit in the first place. What do you do with a band like Becoming the Archetype? Dan and Joe spend the evening trying to figure out exactly who this band was for if not just for the band members themselves. #discussmetal #BecomingTheArchetype

Since Dan mentioned he wanted to talk about “dank” death metal bands, we decided to go with Aborted this week. We were surprised by what we found. If there is such a thing as a “sure thing” in death metal, Aborted is another band to keep on hand. Enjoy. #discussmetal #aborted
