Dude, literally without August Burns Red, you wouldn't have the modern day breakdown. Having Bad Omens as S tier and ABR at C tier, shows that you don't know or respect metalcore.

[@jackwhiteakajoker9394]

Top of s tier for me would be Bullet for My Valentine

[@BHKG8818]

ABR at D tier… Them and AILD literally were dominating the Metalcore genre mid2000s-mid2010s. But I understand the younger generation have exposure to more new bands and have a different take on what’s personally a good band to them. ABR, AILD, Caliban, Parkway Drive were godlike back then

[@mckeveroxidine7336]

Brooo FR AILD AND THEIR RIFFS AND BREAKDOWNS, Parkway drive also

[@rev2178]

you should listen to currents they’re my favorite metalcore band rn

[@WHOREHAMMER_OFFICIAL]

My s tiers: Parkway drive, August burns red, bullet for my valentine, erra, any JT cavey touches, killswitch engage

[@Warbearwooliez]

fuck bud, I think we're getting old. Im with you on this

[@jexus8932]

god damnit I didnt want to think that but if the shoe fits..@@Warbearwooliez

[@triplej8666]

same here but with avenged and atreyu aswell

[@jordanrivera9317]

WHERE IS KILLSWITCH ENGAGE AND THEY SHOULD BE ON TOP OF S tier, the end of heartache and daylight by dies are arguably the greatest in the genre..

[@ghostyzf5708]

I just found your channel but I would really appreciate if you could check out Saviour. They are a small Australian metalcore band who need more exposure. they are also from the same city and friends with Make Them Suffer. Absolutely stunning band and can also pull on the heartstrings a bit. Love the content man, keep up the great work!

[@slxrminator8658]

wasn't expecting to agree with pretty much every take on here but here we are lmao. also love how positive you are dude! i'm definitely subbed now, i think you deserve way more

[@wavvelengths]

JUST NOW SEEING THIS THANK YOU FOR SUBBING!

[@LinHeartAttack]

Enough *Hot Takes*, give us *Cold Takes*!

[@wavvelengths]

Next video idea? 🤔

[@MyDudeJZ]

Ayeee, I saw Bad Omens recently too and agree with your S ranking :)

[@MyDudeJZ]

Actually saw them twice this year :D

[@jackdyson4475]

As if no one is mentioning the fact architects are t in s tier

[@deftones_enjoyer]

You're right, Loathe doesn't belong in S-tier... they belong in SSS-tier

[@henrywalton5967]

@@deftones_enjoyer loathe doesn't really seem like full on metalcore though, some of their tracks sound more like Deftones

[@Warbearwooliez]

Parkway Drive?

[@AndrewRodenbucher]

Did you do a video for Nu-Metal bands?

[@wavvelengths]

I might do another video soon!

[@thomo2127]

Converge is goated

[@Ffmt-ri3ti]

I agree with almost everything except ADTR is my favorite band of all time. I’d put them in S tier for sure.

[@EFABES93]

I wanted SO BAD to be triggered by this list, but funny enough I agree with pretty much every choice here. Solid picking dude.

[@wavvelengths]

big brains think alike 🤔

[@ebrh1502]

Disagree with most everything 😂

[@1DeathScythe36]

If you haven't already, def check out currents

[@mateoottie]

Just saw Loathe live last night. They’re absolutely INCREDIBLE. I let it in is an experience of an album. I’d love to see your video essay when it comes out

[@timothymwakazi8481]

BFMV? Why isn't it here? I feel like that is an important name you've forgotten!

[@wavvelengths]

So many bands I didn't put in here 😅 should I make a part 2?

[@timothymwakazi8481]

[@Vixfor_]

From that list... Personal opinion S - Loathe, Northlane A - Erra, Silent Planet(Last single was the best i heard from them) B - Phinehas, Bad Omens, Fit For a King, Crystal Lake(Not a huge fan) C - Motionless in White, August Burns Red, Architects(Current), Wage War, Polaris(Not a fan) D - Beartooth, A Day to Remember, I Prevail, BMTH(never liked) Personally my favorite are currently: Invent Animate(Last single ''Elysium'' has became one of my favorite songs in this genre in general), Oceans Ate Alaska(Hikari is my favorite album Instrumentally), Northlane(More of a Discoveries and Singularity enjoyer, but new unique stuff also fvcks), Loathe, Veil of Maya, Novelists(2015-17), Thornhill, Spiritbox, etc... And i really like Holding Absence's first album the most, tho it's a different genre, but their first album's sound is something i need in Metalcore, which is likely coming for Invent Animate. I like Ambient, but i also like Progressive Metalcore and i really enjoy when Metalcore is being progressive, melodic, emotional, brutal and has Ambient elements, basically Invent Animate is my two favorite genres mixed together. It's more like an Ambient Metalcore From classic or semi-classic i'd say: Killswitch Engage, Breakdown of Sanity, As I Lay Dying, After The Burial, Periphery, Phinehas.

[@ClassicPanda963]

Crystal Lake and Polaris at C is utter blasphemy

[@Vixfor_]

​@@ClassicPanda963 Yes, but there's such a thing as personal opinion and preferences. I never really enjoyed Polaris at all, they're actually boring to me for some reason, the last album is overrated asf. Crystal Lake band has good tracks, but i'm not enjoying their style and i don't know how to explain what exactly i don't like about them. I should have to put them upper tho

[@ClassicPanda963]

@@Vixfor_ I respect your right to your opinion 👍

[@Vixfor_]

@Underoath-Define The Great Line Fan Account [5-7] August surely deserves more, but not a huge fan...

[@kionicxnm]

my list: beartooth: B loathe: A phinehas: S bad omens: A motionless in white: A a day to remember: C erra: S architects: C august burns red: B crystal lake: S fit for a king: A i prevail: B polaris: A silent planet: S wage war: A bring me the horizon: B northlane: A

[@wavvelengths]

Solid S Tier 🤘

[@doctormomentos2514]

bro how could you put BMTH higher then Architects, do you hear how bad Oli is singing and screaming even with autotune? Have you heard next gen 2024- bullshit garbage

[@nomadicloner1986]

I agree with some of this but I’m more into deathcore and hardcore than metalcore so the only bands I like on this list are I prevail, phinehas, north lane and crystal lake. All the others I can appreciate but just can’t get into. Oh and august burns red is pretty good in my books 😂

[@wavvelengths]

Understandable haha. I'm barely getting into deathcore/hard-core stuff, any recommendations?

[@Lu1sY4brudy]

dude wheres Monuments? this band is S tier for me

[@SCN-Xelitza]

I'm pretty sure they are considered Djent

[@Lu1sY4brudy]

@@SCN-Xelitza so why is erra there? they are more djent in the lastest album

[@SCN-Xelitza]

@@Lu1sY4brudy I'm not too familiar with ERRA, but maybe it's because they have both Djent and Metalcore as with Monuments have always been more Djent then Metalcore? I was confused about that as well but chalked it up to mixing up genres

[@SCN-Xelitza]

@@Lu1sY4brudy Also I didn't mean for that to come off as toxic, I sorry it I did

[@arman-eb3vv]

no way ffak over architects

[@arman-eb3vv]

@Underoath-Define The Great Line Fan Account [5-7] you dont know anything about music dont you

[@1DeathScythe36]

ffak is better overall.

[@thomo2127]

@@1DeathScythe36lost forever is more goated than ffak

[@Lu1sY4brudy]

I think u need to listen more metalcore bands, the scoreboard is very mainstream

[@wavvelengths]

For time I had to make a shorter list, but I could make a part two with all different bands 🤔

[@kawaharaizumi731]

Beartooth: B Loathe: A Phinehas: A Bad Omens: A (borderline S) Motionless In White: B A Day To Remember: C Erra: B Architects: A (borderline S) ABR: C (borderline B) Crystal Lake: B FFAK: A I Prevail: A Polaris: B Silent Planet: B Wage War: A BMTH: S Northlane: D
