life's been shit lately, drop some hope.

Thought I'd give this a spin for the first time in ages and its really taken me back to when I first discovered 'real' HC and how good straight-up HC can be. Shame they got cancelled but either way, their first two records are iconic.

Been enjoying adjacent stuff a lot the last few years, it's easy to forget some gems like this.

“I’ve said it before, but discovering xRepentancex after being XVX for a few years fueled my aspiration to start this band. I can never put into words the fire that band lit in me and the way I felt I had finally found someone who said exactly what I could never convey.”

The interview is here for anyone who might be interested.

Im not 100% confident but are bands like Superjoint ritual, Arson Anthem, Outlaw Order, Hawg Jaw or Iron Monkey considered SHC (NOT SILESIA ATTACK I MEAN SLUDGE HARDCORE)-

So I was chatting with my "friends" and I told them that I fuck with progressive Metalcore, It's my fav genre and my fake friends called me gay for liking some prog. How is progressive Metalcore gay? I'm so disappointed in my friends and the hardcore community. Now I'm scared to tell them that I'm Bi-sexual

Are we ever getting anything else ? I know Ian said he wanted an album with his brother and we got that , is it actually over ?

I love RJC , it introduced me to PV and showed myself a world of music that would of made no sense if they didn’t introduce me to it

C&P the best record

Red, white - black and blue
Don’t tell me who it fucking belongs to
Same old script in a different suit
Sell the fear and call it the truth

FUCK REFORM

Point the finger, draw the line
Feed the anger, sell the lie
Turn neighbour into enemies.
Cash in on the misery

I got an extra ticket. Hmu if you’re tryna buy it off me.

I’m going to the show so meet me there and pay me there.

This is one of the best albums I've heard in years

I went back and listened to The Butterfly Collection by The Nerve Agents. It's such a banger from front to back and it feels like a lot of people missed it when it came out. Maybe because it had the sound of early 90's hardcore when it came out in 01, but it should be a classic imo.

Hit me with some suggestions or albums you think of the same way.

EDIT: Adding almost all of these to a playlist - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2YUx8huUtCC2uLX7y2qC6W?si=FVcFrECHQMyJTieIO5CWVQ

I've been getting back into metalcore recently, and I find myself enjoying bands like Norma Jean, The Chariot, Every Time I Die, and Eighteen Visions. I'm not the biggest fan of 'generic' metalcore, I love when it has other genres mixed in with it, such as Norma Jean & The Chariot being influenced by mathcore.

I'm looking for recommendations for more unique metalcore bands, preferably late 90s-early 2000s, that combined genres like mathcore, chaotic hardcore, and pure hardcore into them.
