On this episode, Ryan (@galacticdad) and I recorded something after six weeks of planning off of the speakers of his laptop because we both have brain damage. We attempt some historical revisionism and try to act like deathcore is a real genre, mostly succeeding in my opinion. You be the judge.
My choices for the precedents of deathcore:
Damonacy (1991)
Internal Bleeding - Voracious Contempt (1995)
Suffocation - Pierced From Within (1995)
Dying Fetus - Killing On Adrenaline (1998)
Despised Icon - The Healing Process (2005)
Antagony - Rebirth (2005)
Job for a Cowboy - Doom (2005)
Ryan's choices for modern deathcore:
The Faceless - Akeldama (2006)
Born of Osiris - The New Reign (2007)
Veil of Maya - The Common Man's Collapse (2008)
Oceano - Depths (2009)
Whitechapel - A New Era of Corruption (2010)

This week's guest, Manny (@allstarbatmanny), goes into detail about albums that brought him closer to comfort with his emotions and internal strife. I take him on a journey through ETID's discography after taking my own deep dive over the last two episodes and we get into the following albums that he identified as instrumental to his development and the development of metalcore in the much-maligned Hot Topic days:
The Artist In The Ambulance - Thrice
O God, The Aftermath - Norma Jean
Vol. 3 - Slipknot
Creature - Within The Ruins
Plagues - The Devil Wears Prada

My dear friend and musical guru Greg joins the show to talk about some classic rock, the British invasion, and how cool it was that David Bowie covered a Nirvana song. We talked about the essentials from last week's episode and some instructive cuts that laid the groundwork thematically, culturally, and sonically for heavy metal. We use the word "theatricality" a lot.
Greg's picks for this show:

End of Heartache by Killswitch Engage
Issues by Korn
Essential picks:
Powerslave by Iron Maiden
Screaming for Vengeance by Judas Priest
Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath

On the previous episode, Marcus tasked me with researching the turn of the 80s and the development of thrash seemingly out of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. What I discovered is that there were a lot of interwoven threads that brought us to the Bay Area fellas who loves drinking, high top Nikes, and sick guitar solos. I also reveal some choice albums from my own personal perspective and albums that I deem essential to anyone looking into the genre.
Personal:
Reign In Blood by Slayer
Slipknot by Slipknot
Ashes of the Wake by Lamb of God
Essential:
Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jane Doe by Converge
Arc by Agoraphobic Nosebleed
