I have had enough of people hateing metalcore because they don't get into the right bands like Atreyu, As I Laying Dying, Lamb of God and all those hardcore metalcore bands that are mediocre at best...So heres my list of the Top 10 Metalcore Bands: 1 - Avenged Sevenfold: These guys learned from the best of Iron Maiden and Metallica and made one great band. They mix in the Metalcore style with great songwriteing with great solos and make it so even those mainsteamers can enjoy. Even though I kinda hate how these poser "City of Evil" fans are makeing A7X look bad, behind those guys this band has delived Two super albums that in my opinion can be the best albums of all time. 2 - Unearth: Mixing in harsh vocals, with breakdowns with the tightiest guitar riffs that hook in just ever so perfectly. These guys make speed metalcore riffs that don't slow down the song but yet make it faster. Each album they get better and better. 3 - Trivium: Triviums singer has amazing range going from strong overpowering vocals to very mild vocals within seconds. But thats not the best part, the long guitar solo riffs make them who they are...mixing almost mainstreamish music to sometimes rather brutal metalcore in one song is what impresses me. 4 - Between the Buried and Me: This band is out right crazy, yet brillant! These guys album, or even song will feel like a emotional rollercoaster in which will leave you saying "wtf was that!" after a few plays. Combineing alright brutal vocals and breakdowns too the most beautiful music ever made from a metelcore band in the same song. 5 - Killswitch Engage: Im not a huge fan of KE but I am very impressed with their song writeing and overall feel of the songs. These guys impress me but not my style...melodic death influcences are present...all in all great band 6 - Chimiara: Out right brutal hatecore metalcore, if you are angry heres the metalband fore you. Their riffs are not catchy but very hooky and just drives the musics faster and faster. Love to listen to the band while working out. 7 - Shadows Fall: Like Killswitch they are more influcenced by heavy melodic death bands, and have that heavyness that sets them apart from other metalcore bands. Their new album is something impressive to look at. 8 - All that Remains Yes, they are christain metal, and they are by far the best band in that catigory. Their singer has amazing range, their drummer is good, and they have catchy solos and songs. 9 - As Blood Runs Black This band has probably the best double bass drummer of all the metalcore bands. Their very brutal, and have great breakdowns and hooky riffs. Just got into this band, rather new... 10 - Darkest Hour This band is like chimaira with thier brutal hate style, but the vocalist has a nice clear strong vocal style that attracts me. Their pretty hooky with their riffs, I also just got into this band. So their you have it 10 Awesome Metalcore bands too look for
