hey do I know you, you like a lot of the stuff I like!

my name is Joe Caithness, goto most of the decent dubstep nights in Notts, used to goto a lot of punk/hc shows

as far as converge-esque stuff goes, i'd get some botch (we are the romans = classic), old man gloom (isis/converge side project, heavy as fuck post rock), and early cave in (first few records). maybe pelican ('fire in our throats' lp) and indian summer (there's a release with all their stuff on) as well.

edit: i forgot circle takes the square. bonkers grind/math/whatever. flawless first album, good split with pg99, new album in the pipeline.

coalesce
botch
curl up and die
beecher

Big Black/Shellac, Tortoise, Ui (A MUST), Rodan, Don Caballero (KILLERS!), Zeni Geva (WATCH OUT!), June of 44, list goes on but go for some krautrock too while you at it.

Posted: **Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:04 pm**

If you into realy tech grind check psyopus out and also see you next tuesday.

hope this helps!

The Dillinger Escape Plan, Converge and The End are pretty much metal in my book. The End is like Strapping Young Lad with odd time signatures. Converge is like a crossover thrash band with a dose of early '90s Dischord Records and the Dillinger Escape Plan are sort of comparable to Cynic and Gorguts.

You'll find a lot of what you're looking for in progressive thrash metal and technical/jazzy death metal. Check out Gorguts, Martyr, some Cryptopsy (avoid the latest album like the plage) and get 'Time Does Not Heal' by Dark Angel (a high light of thrash metal).

Some people swear by 'Behold... The Arctopus' so get into that. I'm not the biggest fan, but meh.

The Red Chord is good, they're lumped in with the whole bree thing but they're totally different. Check out the first two albums.

OH OH OH, before I forget, check out Cephalic Carnage.

Dying Will be The Death Of Me on Youtube

And the amazing, AMAZING band Pig Destroyer is sorta of like a thrash metal band on caffeine with a death metal drummer and a hardcore punk singer on speed who get into Melvins like grooves. Totally something a Converge fan might dig.

what would you say is a more fitting genre name?

seen them labelled as hardcore - but they have so little in common with other hardcore bands, I really can't see it..
also seen mathcore, but honestly, I don't feel comfortable running around saying I love mathcore

Ehh 'mathcore' was a marketing trick used by Relapse records to sell the Dillinger Escape Plan, it's a nod to the math rock scene that spawned the Squirrel Bait bands (Squirrel Bait/Slint/Rodan/A Minor Forest/Gastr del Sol/The For Carnation) and so on and so forth.

You're pretty much right, they don't really sound like other 'hardcore bands'. If you compare, let's say, Converge and Slayer side by side, you'll find they have more in common with each other than Converge does with bands like, let's say, Minor Threat (if I gotta pick a well known one). In fact, hardcore took a different approach by the end of the '80s, but it's not well documented by the rock press. In the '87 a band called Infest released its first demo, which was a turning point since it countered the metallic grind (though grindcore doesn't have to be metallic at all, sadly the music press labels Napalm Death as the originators of grindcore whereas the Dutch hardcore band Lärm did grindcore with blastbeats when Napalm Death was still playing peace punk) with its own type of extremely fast hardcore punk, which set the foundation for modern day thrashcore and powerviolence as we know it. Hellnation, Man Is the Bastard, Capitalist Casualties, Jellyroll Rockheads? I'd say you could all trace them back to Infest's demo and their following releases. Sadly, the music press started focusing on the New York tough guy thing which people in the hardcore scene actually consider nothing more than jock metal since there's really barely anything hardcore about it. Those bands were a big influence on what a lot of people call "metalcore" (another meaningless term since people use it liberally for melodic death metal bands to groove metal bands to stuff like Poison the Well and even sludge metal) these days so some confuse The Dillinger Escape Plan as being a 'hardcore band'.

Especially given that hardcore, like all punk, is about being simple, fast and aggressive, it sorts of makes it impossible for TDEP to be hardcore. You can only have so many dynamics and progressive tendencies until you stop sounding like punk at all. I'd say that Discordance Axis is pretty much as technical as punk can get.

Since people have mentioned some post-rock...
Given the drum & bass connection (Graham Sutton of Boymerang is involved with the band), I am surprised to see little mention of Bark Psychosis. Amazing post-rock band.

And Cul De Sac wins. =| They need more mentions, yes.

[Surprised you actually know them.Very obscure reference.'Longest Days' is an incredible tune,if not just for the bassline alone.]

Sad Lovers & Giants

['Big Track Little Track',Imagination','In Flux',and 'Man Of Straw' still get me rockin' out.Did you ever get into Snake Corps.?Same guitarist,but with a singer with a more powerful presence.They also cover 'In Flux' with vigor.]

The Chameleons UK

[In my top 5 fave bands ever.Dave Fielding and Reg Smithies had as much an impact on my guitar playing as Robert Smith(The Cure/The Glove/Siouxsie),Daniel Ash(Bauhaus/Tones On Tail/Love & Rockets),Bari Bari(Christian Death),Marty Willson-Piper(The Church/All About Eve),Peter Koppes(The Church),Mick Harvey(Boys Next Door/Birthday Party/Honeymoon In Red/Crime & The City Solution/Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds)and Robin Guthrie(Cocteau Twins).]

Bauhaus ( even though most peeps call them Goth )

[Really? We used to call them arty post punk or glam punk back in the 80s.'Bela Lugosi's Dead' is still a great dub tune to me(David J. was all about dub music.)]

Echo & The Bunnymen

[Post punk's answer to The Doors.Standard."Crocodiles" is one of the best albums of all time!]

Joy Division

[Couldn't really have a post punk list without 'em,I suppose.Although I was a big Section 25,The Wake(dubby post punk from Scotland featuring a young pre-Primal Scream Bobby Gillespie),A Certain Ratio,Tunnelvision,Durutti Column,and Crispy Ambulance fan...if we're talking bands on Factory.I quite liked Minny Pops and Inca Babies as well.]

"Hex" is a dope record."Pendulumn Man' is as brilliant a piece of ambient heaven as anything Brian Eno has done.Dare I say that Bark Psychosis has progrock leanings?I do dare...
