| Overlooked Metalcore/ Deathcore
List is a mash of metalcore/ deathcore/ djent/ and progressive metalcore albums that barely have any ratings and happen to rule. | | 1 |  | A Sight for Sewn Eyes
A Sight for Sewn Eyes
Passionate and raw, hardcore/ metalcore from Canada. This sounds like a faster Code Orange or Counterparts without all the self loathing bs, sprinkled with dillinger-esq moments of chaos. | | 2 |  | Rescuer
With Time Comes the Comfort
It's hard to believe this band is signed to rise records. They play a style of hardcore that reminds me of defeater or even Modern Life Is War at times. | | 3 |  | Kingmaker
The Cradle
This album is fucking nuts. Relentless metalcore with some of the strongest and most unique vocal delivery I've heard in a while, and in many ways similar to Keith Buckley' when he gets all dirty south. Unfortunately this album is practically unlistenable due to it being so ear-stabbingly compressed. Tis a shame | | 4 |  | Dead Hearts
Bitter Verses
Emotionally driven melodic hardcore/ metalcore, that sounds alot like Shai Hulud | | 5 |  | With Life In Mind
Grievances
Nothing groundbreaking, but still worth a listen if you are looking for your classic metalcore formula with a fair amount of replay value. I highly recommend listening to their 3 singles they released before they broke up, because they have some amazing melodic sections and top notch breakdowns. | | 6 |  | Novelists
Souvenirs
Technical wankery mixed with some djent and progressive moments. This album has equally as many proggy cleans as it has deep bellowing growls you would typically hear on any metalcore album. This is pulled off extremely well and keeps songs from every really getting boring. | | 7 |  | Aristeia
Demoralization Of The Luminary
Super spacy/ atmospheric deathcore reminicent of Substructure. Lightning fast drums, off timing tourettes breakdowns, and strained high screams that almost sound like Mitch rose from the dead. Album is a bit of a one trick pony, but not to many bands nail the space metal sound this well. | | 8 |  | Anterrabae
Shakedown Tonight
A great metalcore release that is over 10 years old. This is a very nostalgic metalcore album that brings you back to those sweaty basement moshfests we all miss. Plenty of 2-stepping, trim picking, triggered bass drums, and breakdowns that will bring you back to the good ol days. | | 9 |  | Napoleon
Newborn Mind
Progressive metalcore with a ton of melody and intricate guitar sections. Thing the atmospheric/ melodic side of Architects but more technical. | | 10 |  | Car Bomb
Meta
I'm sure you guys have heard this considering it's #5 on the trending albums list. Not sure why I included it but this is probably the heaviest thing I've heard all year. The raw, unpolished, and spastic sound they have achieved really gives this album it's own identity. | | 11 |  | Stargazer (US)
Genesis
Djent/ Deathcore. These guys are from my home town so I had to give them some love. Objectively, this album rips, and could easily pass as The Contortionist - Exoplanet pt. 2. | | 12 |  | Damned Spring Fragrantia
Divergences
Progressive deathcore/ metalcore done right. It's chaotic, djenty, groovy, and punishingly heavy without falling into typical deathcore stereotypes. | | 13 |  | Fall In Archaea
Aura Magenta
See #12 | | 14 |  | Kingdom of Giants
Ground Culture
Fast paced, super tight metalcore with probably too many breakdowns. Despite this, songs are very well thought out and every member has a huge presence. | | 15 |  | The Overseer
Rest and Let Go
Really a post-hardcore album, but severely overlooked. This pulls a ton of influence from Underoath and Thrice. | | 16 |  | Altars
Something More
Catchy/ melodic metalcore reminisicent of Hundredth or even Comeback Kid. | | 17 |  | Dionaea
Still
Memorizing quitar work and song structure. They play a unique blend of post rock/ progressive metal/ and grindcore, somehow transitioning generes mid song seamlessly. This is the only album that has a respectable number of ratings, yet I've never seen it in a list or any sort of "rec me" lists. | |

11.09.16 | Almost all of these have less than 50 ratings. What else should I check out that hasen't been beaten to death by this site yet? | dbizzles
11.09.16 | I've heard none of these. Can you narrow down which ones have clean choruses so I can avoid them and check the rest? | calmrose
11.09.16 | props for 1, album and band rule
check out Palm Reader and The Crinn if you haven't | Winsomniac
11.09.16 | Lethal Devotion is 7's best song by miles though tbh | dixoncocks
11.09.16 | If you hate cleans, stay away from 6, 9, 14, 15, 16. Although most of those cleans aren't your generic, whiny, risecore cleans.
fuckin love palm reader. | accompliceofmydeath
11.09.16 | DEADWATER DROWNING. Best deathcore, hands down. | dixoncocks
11.09.16 | Title track off 7 is probably my favorite song of theirs. That album is littered with insane moments though. | accompliceofmydeath
11.09.16 | Also, Martyr AD and Bloodlet. | dbizzles
11.09.16 | Thanks for the recs. I get in a mood for stuff like this some times and never listen to anything new to me. | MarsKid
11.09.16 | Zygoma - The Forgotten
Zapruder - From the Horse's Mouth, Fall In Line
Ascariasis - Ocean of Color
Also, adjust your score for Shadow of the Colossus to the proper 4.5 rating pls | accompliceofmydeath
11.09.16 | From A Second Story Window was sick.
Skycamefalling
Day of Mourning
Embrace the End
Grimlock
Too Pure to Die | Spec
11.09.16 | sewn eyes are dope agreed | acmolan
11.09.16 | You should check the bands 'Oceans Ate Alaska" "Polaris" and "Cardinals Pride" and last but not least "Continents". Thx for recommending Car Bomb. Besides Novelists, Kingdom of Giants and Napoleon are pretty awesome! (I already knew them) | dixoncocks
11.09.16 | "Also, adjust your score for Shadow of the Colossus to the proper 4.5 rating pls"
haha yea that was a great album but the only deathcore 4.5s I have are ASP, the Contortionist, The Crimson Armada, and The Discovery, and I just feel those are on another level. | dixoncocks
11.09.16 | Dude I love From A Second Story Window. Still shocked Conversations has a 3.3 average, that album is seriously good.
Thanks guys, Ill have to check out some of these after work | Winsomniac
11.09.16 | Also, Walking With Strangers - Hardships for -core band guilty pleasures. | chinesewhispers
11.09.16 | How the fuck does Ecce Lex by Nostromo only have 19 votes plz check that is dope af | dixoncocks
11.11.16 | That is man I'll check that for sure. Walking with strangers aren't bad, I was about to throw them on here. | pjquinones747
11.11.16 | I've either been meaning to check out or have not heard of every band on this list. I'm saving this for later. | dixoncocks
11.11.16 | Cheers man, hope you enjoy.
I forgot to add October Skyline - That's How Tripods Work. They aren't even in the database. | bloodshy
08.20.20 | Good list. Aristeia sounds interesting, will queue on my jukebox. | dixoncocks
08.20.20 | Don't sleep on it man. They are right up there with The Contortionist or Substructure. It does not disappoint. | bigweinerdon
08.20.20 | newborn mind rules so hard | SteakByrnes
