when the fuck did deathcore explode in popularity? its really not my thing outside a few albums that stand out (despised icon's the ills of modern man being the primary one), but it seems like the main style of metal that is popular with early 20s & teens. --- And I'd never do it but it's not a joke; I can't tell the difference when I'm all alone ~[she/her|they/them]~ ...

It went about as viral as you could in those days for underground music, and it really picked up from there. Funny enough, Doom is the only Deathcore release by Job for a Cowboy since they went full death metal afterwards. --- Balenciaga hoodies and Gucci shoes #FreeMelly ... Copied to Clipboard!

Deathcore is probably the more prominent subgenre over the old style death metal. Which makes sense. Thrash and old school death are boomer genres now. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But now bands today are being fed through the filter of Slipknot, Linkin Park and bands of the last 20 to 25 years versus being inspired by the traditional stuff like the older generation was. --- Go Leafs Go http://www.last.fm/user/Disposableher0 ...

unfortunately a lot of the newer death metal bands that i do see younger people listening to are just soulless tech wank inspired by shit like necrophagist that aside, it'll be interesting to see where 'extreme' metal goes in the future since streaming is the primary way people access music today which makes more niche sounds more accessible to a wider audience --- And I'd never do it but it's not a joke; I can't tell the difference when I'm all alone ~[she/her|they/them]~ ...

My favourite death metal band right now is probably Gojira and they go against what I said before. Deathcore and metalcore has been a mainstream entry point for over a decade. But Gojira still feels like they pull more from Metallica / Pantera / old school death. They were death metal that got filtered into stadium groove metal. They were also started in the 90's and their trajectory is quite a bit different from the 2000's bands. --- Go Leafs Go http://www.last.fm/user/Disposableher0 ... Copied to Clipboard!

my favorite has been pumping out (almost) exclusively absolutely great material since the '90s - The Chasm Their roots are definitely in Slayer / Morbid Angel, but even their newest album from this year sounds fresh and interesting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE8nif13eBg --- And I'd never do it but it's not a joke; I can't tell the difference when I'm all alone ~[she/her|they/them]~ ...
