No, they aren't even the best.

Botch, The Chariot, The Dillinger Escape Plan, there's more that I'm not thinking of.
Code Orange (I preferred them when they were Code Orange Kids but each to their own),
metalcore heads bang on about *early* Poison The Well, which I've never listened to.
There were LOADS of bands in the 90s that have been largely lost to the sands of time, talking about PTW.

Fuck me, I'm trying to think if I remember anything else. I don't even like the genre.

This is the only good metalcore band

Protest the Hero has some alright albums; also they're the only 'X the Y' good band, everything else is crap.

earth crisis, starkweather, acme, cave in, integrity, and the list goes on

90's metalcore still holds up pretty well imo. there are some underrated stuff, do some digging

Talking about Earth Crisis has reminded me of this band that played an absolutely ridiculous set at Fluff Fest, Earth Crisis headlined at that same weekend.

Chokehold also played, and they're very good, I haven't particularly enjoyed them on record but I think I've listened to the wrong album. They're stellar, absolutely stellar live and their legacy is huge.

I saw Chokehold play with Disembodied. They were just completely obscene. I went to A&E.

Xibalba are ridiculously ignorant but heavy as all fuck,

You might get something from listening to Renounced as well, they're our UK boys at the moment. I have never enjoyed them on record as much as I have with their stellar live show but I've heard their last record is a stormer.

I saw Jesus Piece play a small venue here in London, they're from Philly, and they're absolutely worth a listen. Very good band. Lyrically there isn't that much going on, but the blunt words are carried by their delivery and the astonishing sound.

thanks senpai.

good christ

one of my favorites

>The Devil Wears Prada (except for their first two albums)
>Literally the first two are their only listenable albums

Northlane, Code Orange, Some KSE and Dillinger are good

>There were LOADS of bands in the 90s

yeah pretty much any of the 90s "metallic hardcore" is better than most of the bands referred to as metalcore now

>Miss May I

Holy fuck I love that album so much.
>Is converge the only good metalcore band?
Shai Hulud and Misery Signals are also good

>Shai Hulud and Misery Signals are also GREAT
FTFY

I enjoyed Wear Your Wounds a lot.

At what point did you realize it was better than Jane Doe?

Nah

When I heard the first single

This is beatdown.

>Eve wasn't on there
It was better than the other one

It's not
[spoiler]AWLWLB is though[/spoiler]

AWLWLB is def great, but too depressive.
Jane Doe is just mind blowin at times, and the title track just can't be beat.

This answer is good

S O Y B A N D

They're both better than Jane Doe, I really love where converge has been going since AWLWLB

>Beartooth
get the fuck off this board seriously

Seriously they are right shit, your list lost any credibility

KILL YOURSELF

Kind of

Cave In is pretty good too

Leave best metalcore album to me

Pre-Atlas Parkway Drive
Code Orange
Early Enter Shikari
Earth Crisis
Pre-Leveler August Burns Red
Misery Signals
Malevolence
Xibalba
Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza
As I Lay Dying
Knocked Loose

Unironically this

Correct

shit taste.
Deserve to get perma-b&

When that chaotic chugging towards the end of "I Can Tell You About Pain" turned into that skull-splitting breakdown

I discovered them from this.

Samefag.

Shai Hulud was great, and the Acacia Strain was decent also.

Coalesce are underrated and underexposed and are the true best

There's loads of really good metalcore bands

This, except unironically.

Sorry i don't mean to put coalesce on too high hopes, but they're a really good band and i hope you'll take the time to listen to them, they're great mathcore too

...

I'm not being ironic, people fall into the trap of thinking all metalcore is that really shitty over produced metalcore with clean vocals.

Is the title-track from Jane Doe the peak of metalcore?

Nope

First thing I thought of when I saw this posted

zao

It's not. Pic related is though.

No. The 90's metallic hardcore scene had tens of better bands than Converge.

metalcore

"metallic hardcore" is better tho.

quick, someone post that Orchid album so we can end this stupid thread.

Orchid is absolute fucking trash

>car bomb

my nigga

I agree, I hate metalcore.

AcMe is what you need my nignog

Do any of you Converge fans like Ruined Families?

Good metalcore band coming through

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this masterpiece yet.

This guy is right.
There's no single that can blow-out Jane Doe, but album wise, he's objectively correct on this totaly subjective matter.
This is bretty gud tho, allthough I still like the dusk in us better.


How has no-one said Old Man Gloom yet?

I was not familiar with them but listening right now, sounds p good. He's trying to emulate Bannon's vocal style and is doing a pretty good job.

I gotcha fampai

Kys twice

I also like these bands, not mentioned.

YES, Old Man Gloom was fucking awesome
same w ISIS and early Cave In

Absolute dogshit taste

no but they are best

They actually live up to the name "metalcore" being a fusion of the crust punk/hardcore and metal, the grind influences are fucking class as well
They're like if Jeromes Dream were a metal band

Nope. There's this along with and
