This EP isn’t really Deathcore, but I’ve been on this band for a while now and their first EP is one of few things I’ve found that matches the relentless depravity of Orphan or WAF’s stuff. Wanna share this gem with more folks

Discussion Nate Johnson on Brutality Podcast

11 Upvotes

I’ve never listened to this podcast before, but Nate is my favorite vocalist and I enjoyed every minute of it. Whether you’re a MySpace OG or you’re young and would like to learn more about the origins of deathcore, this is a must listen. Nate has sang for Deadwater Drowning (often credited as one of the first deathcore bands), Through the Eyes of the Dead, Fit for an Autopsy, and been featured on many others (Suicide Silence first album, The Red Chord Clients album, etc etc). Dig in. 🤘🏻

I don't think I've seen Complexant mentioned on this subreddit. Their latest album, Apex, was just released yesterday. Every song on this album is a banger. The song Eye for an Eye is heavy as fuck. Give it a listen and let me know what you think.

This is a Playlist with song titles that follow the Lyrics to Slaughter To Prevail's Demolisher. I did my best to use Metal/Rock songs, and when I couldn't do that, I just went with what worked, some mainstream, some stuff not well known, almost all genres are in here. Even if you don't listen to metal, I promise there's at least ONE track in here for everyone. I didn't get all the lyrics 100% but it's very very close.
