Hello I have been listening to a lot of music lately and would like to share and discuss with others :)

Whatchu been listening to this year and what should I check out? What are your AOTY contenders thus far?

So far this year I have really been enjoying Snooze - I KNOW HOW YOU WILL DIE a lot! A really seamless blend of prog metal with math rock sensibilities. Lovely vocal performances that alternate between clean and screamed, yet the record never lets up on the heaviness. It's best listened to front to back without skips. Really brilliantly sequenced! Just an absolute treat for the ears :)

Earlier this year I really got a kick out of the new Panchiko record. Best way I can describe it is 'Radiohead makes a trip-hop record'.

A recent record that just came out which I've been digging a lot is Subnormal Drives by ByoNoiseGenerator. Only just heard of this band through this record but this is some intense mathgrind with some sax thrown in there for good measure. Definitely gonna be giving this one some more spins.

TURNSTILE SUMMER

As for what's to come, I'm really looking forward to The Armed record getting released next week :)

gentle reminder to please try and maintain this thread at 98 upfrags. thank you for your kind cooperation :)

New meth. / See You Next Tuesday split is absolutely insane. Some of the fucking heaviest, noisiest, most violent and intense shit I've come across most recently

GOD BLESS Invent Animate and The Number 12 are such insane acts

hello lol just wanted to say thank to everybody in this thread for your suggestions. I'm really falling in love with this genre and metalcore/post-hardcore more broadly construed. Also wanted to show off my 5x5. October's been treating me fantastically, music wise =)

Keep the recs coming and also check out Death Goals they're absolutely fucking nuts

Not the most but definitely up there

just hit a new low boys Being 26 is a fucking waking nightmare

Can you explain what whitebelt is? I tried looking it up and all I found was a bunch of nerds arguing about genre tags

I was introduced to Dillinger Escape Plan about 7 months ago and I am fucking obsessed with them. I need more bands that sound like this.
