[@BadgerMushroom2]

I had you on as background sound while I was making supper and my son asked me “dad, is that one of your friends?” I guess it’s the soft tone of the voice, but it made me laugh because of the old saying “metal music is a bunch of gentlemen using an outlet to vent.” Or something of that nature but it’s just funny how a tatted up dude’s voice would call a child to think it was one of his dad’s friends! Great content, sir!

[@xtheyan]

Wow, thank you so much ! This might just be my favorite comment ever ! My biggest goal with my content is to create a kind of vibe that makes people feel like we’re just casually hanging out and talking about music together, and the fact that your son felt like we were friends really warms my heart.

[@qas1409]

Born in 96, old enough to remember the very end of the Myspace era. What a shame. Also excellent video and documentary!

[@mike_tkgchs]

it was a real fun time - i'm glad that the old school deathcore sound (dear god i feel like a dinosaur writing it) is still going somehow with bands like girs of glass, victimblamed and rev3rent

[@WHOREHOUSEFR]

@qas1409 I was born in 96 too, Big up to you ! 🤜🔥🤛

[@JM-hf9tv]

​@@mike_tkgchsOld? The first time I seen Cannibal Corpse, Chris Barns was still doing vocals.

[@mike_tkgchs]

@@JM-hf9tv hahaha ok i was a bit later than that - so, as an "old timer" how did you live the myspace deathcore era or in general the various contaminations that death metal went through?

[@JM-hf9tv]

@@mike_tkgchs Honestly Job for a Cowboy was the first Deathcore band I heard. I personally loved and embraced it. But I wasn't/am not a purest. I enjoy hearing all sorts of new sounds. One of my favorite spinoffs at the time is deathgrind. Cattle Decapitation. Found them around 1998. Of late I have been enjoying Bloodywood. I'm just a Metal head.

[@TheBenOrum]

Thanks for the great video! I was in Antagony and later went on to play in All Shall Perish. Back then, we didn’t really have the words to describe what we were creating-it was just a fusion of influences that felt natural to us. It’s always fascinating to see how deathcore evolved over the years and became its own distinct genre. The journey from those early experimental days to where it stands now is truly something else.

[@countdabulous710]

Duuuuuude!! Awaken the Dreamers is still on daily rotation for me. Thanks for creating something amazing and in my opinion timeless.

[@skøltvofficial]

NGL this channel got me into Deathcore. Now i cant drive 1 minute without doing vocals in my car. Thank you xTheYan

[@xtheyan]

That’s so awesome man !! I’m glad I could introduce you to it 🤙🏻

[@Beezle66]

Well you definitely got a lot of material to discover 😂 🤘🏿

[@PStanchek]

This is really well done! You have made a lot of quality videos on the history of Deathcore. Any chance you will be doing one exclusively on ANTAGONY in the future?

[@yeshtimmy]

You might need the bands that were in this video. I’ve gathered them all. Early Deathcore Influencers: Antagony Despised Icon Rise of Deathcore: Job for a Cowboy Suicide Silence Whitechapel Carnifex Winds of Plague Chelsea Grin The Black Dahlia Murder (influential but not strictly Deathcore) As Blood Runs Black All Shall Perish Myspace Era Bands: Bring Me the Horizon We Came with Broken Teeth (experimental cybergrind) Annotations of an Autopsy (early Deathcore/beatdown influence) Suffokate I Wrestled a Bear Once Underground and Beatdown Era: Angelmaker Lorna Shore Infant Annihilator King Conquer Jerome Abacabb Oceano Within the Ruins Modern Revival Bands: Lorna Shore (again, modern prominence) Shadow of Intent Brand of Sacrifice Honorable Mentions and Related Scenes A Day to Remember (not Deathcore but part of the broader scene at the time) Attack Attack! (crabcore influence) Bless the Fall (emo/post-hardcore influence)

[@jxcobaniki6709]

I'll add some of the new wave of myspace era deathcore bands: Girl of Glass In Which Divides Us Thus Spoke Zarathustra Tracheotomy Psycho Frame Eyesawgod Six Shots in Dallas Lilith's Demise The Devil Went Down to Georgia Slamwich

A true hero. About to relive my childhood and prolly cry a lil bit. Preciatcha brada.

[@corrupted_realm]

My first deathcore bands were Despised Icon and All Shall Perish around 2003 or so. Crazy that it's been almost 22 years since then.

[@xtheyan]

Yep it’s been a while haha

[@JohnDoe-bp6xe]

All Shall Perish is still amazing to this day

[@ryancarthen2198]

All shall perish was awesome never understood the hype behind di couldn't stand them

[@RockSizzleRR24]

I had a dvd sampler with All Shall Perish’s Deconstruction music video around that same time.

[@Darknessssxz]

Cow bells get me hyped now everytime makes me think of wage slaves!

[@westralianoffroad]

I’m 40 this year. Growing up with grunge, into nu-metal, and then straight into early deathcore, and being in Australia so tapping into a lot of the deathcore happening here like I Killed The Prom Queen, The Red Shore, Boris The Blade, Make The Suffer, Thy Art, man honestly it was such a time to be alive. Didn’t even know it was happening. It was just, there. I dunno if it dropped off, or it just evolved, and now as time proves, we get nostalgic and everything old is cool again and revives. Like nu-metal. And now I think deathcore is evolving with slam now coming along, bigger breakdowns, heavier riffs, heavier vocals. We will see where that goes.

[@GamingForTheRecentlyDeceased]

I'm also an aussie and man our deathcore is peak epic

[@doggyB88]

I was going to mention to him to check The Red Shore, they deserved a mention. Also on the note of the smaller bands you mentioned; Signal The Firing Squad and Tomb Of Doom also

[@FlanmanBandz]

My 40th was Jan 1st. Us 85 kids are getting oooold

[@druality_84]

Just about to turn 41 and living in QLD, your story pretty much mirrors my own. The first time I heard the Doom EP I was sucked in, I was living on MySpace trying to find out what other bands were digging their way out. Winds of Plague were a game changer for me, I killed the Prom Queen, Parkway Drive, Norma Jean, Bring me the Horizon, Chelsea Grin, and like you Thy Art nailed it for me, it's been an amazing time and I'm still riding the wave. New School Deathcore, Old School Deathcore, it's all good to me just keep the sound alive.

[@austins.2495]

I wouldn’t say that slam has heavier vocals than deathcore. Or as you say, “deatchcore”

[@jordanupton6888]

What an amazing video. The MySpace age of bands was my favourite as well, so many happy memories of finding new bands. This video really brought me back 🤘 superb skills

[@vinskra]

Started going to deathcore shows in 2006 when I was 11. I will never grow out of my love for deathcore and all associated bands. The energy in the scene when it was new, it felt like there was electricity in the air. Great music, great scene

[@xtheyan]

well said!

[@terriblecertainity]

for people curious about the transition from Hardcore to Deathcore, I'd suggest the following bands: Eternal Suffering, Embodiment, Crawlspace, Undying, Prayer For Cleansing

[@GalacticBobcat]

Love your channel dude, just found you last week. Been jamming deathcore since i was 11, now 31

[@xtheyan]

Thanks man !! Appreciate the support

[@gabec9897]

Deathcore started it all for me. My friend and I started a deathcore band in 2009 by the name of Every Hand Betrayed and in 2012 we released an album titled “Kingless” the goal was to write the heaviest breakdowns ever 😂. Our shows were wild. Miss it dearly!

[@JohnDoe-bp6xe]

[@gabec9897]

@@mixail201211 left the band after we dropped that album for a very stupid reason at the time. To this day it’s one of my biggest regrets lol. The band played shows until 2016 I think. Everyone just kind of stopped I guess. Sad, the band had some potential too.

Great video man. It was such a privilege to grow up in this era. I am 33 years old and was alive and found all these bands the same way you did it sounds like through my space and going to shows. Long live MySpace deathcore! It is really cool to see the younger generation bringing it back.

[@scottstiles3799]

Dude I totally agree! Thy art is Murder’s Infinite Death EP was the best thing they ever did, sooo tasty. Afterwards they seemed to have less unique and colorful personality or something. I still come back to that EP regularly and it always pumps me up!! Great Video, Thanks

[@countdabulous710]

Infinite Death and Hate both slap soooo hard

[@DustyEchozy]

Infinite Death is only the best deathcore ep if you fell in the Hololive rabbit hole and wanted something to vent what you just saw. Other than that, JFAC's Doom EP is miles better.

[@DustyEchozy]

​@@countdabulous710Replace Infinite Death with The Adversary and I'll instantly agree with you.

Incredible content dude!!! You were spot on about the Myspace era Deathcore, please keep making videos like this! \m/

[@xtheyan]

Thank you !!

[@moorbish]

So happy with the Angelmaker shoutout. Probably the best live deathcore band I've seen. To me there's just something about the dual vocalists(triple?)

Glad that i lived the begining era of deathcore 😮‍💨 you just portrayed the playlist of my life 🗿

What an era

There should be more channels that talk about this, great video, not only informative for those who are getting into the genre but also emotional for those of us who discovered those bands when they were taking their first steps, excellent, I love your channel, long live deathcore and long live the metal 👊🔥

[@XXUNREQUITEDCANNIBALXX]

i wasnt old enough for the rise and fall of deathcore but i get a sense of nostalgia from a lot of the myspace bands. ur videos help a lot for the history of all things metal, good shit🔥

Seeing those old band MySpace pages really brings me back. Great video bro, really enjoyed this one. 2007-2011 truly was a special time with great memories.

[@JuggernautJ77]

The first death core style band i ever listened to was a black rose burial wayy back in 2001 in the 5th grade! It blew my mind I'm so glad found it. Deathcore, hxc, grindcore, and just about every other core has gotten me through the hardest times of my life, and I will forever be thankful to this specific music scene!

[@joshdeaneofficial]

Dude your passion and excitement is infectious ❤❤

[@samuelfavata7583]

Much respect for even the slightest mention of Total Deathcore. As someone who was heavily involved in that era of music promotion from 2014-2018 with Chugcore, I think it would be dope to get a video like this that showcased the popularity of downtempo. Bands like Immoralist, Black Tongue, Sworn In, Villains, Demolisher, just that general realm had such a big impact in deathcore and metalcore back in those days, even the bands you covered in your video like Slaughter to Prevail, King Conquer, etc. Thinking about it to this day, I miss doing music promotion. Keep up the great content, you got a new subscriber. 🤘

[@BirdOfHermes83]

Awesome video yet again Yan. Thanks! 🤘 You still need to make a video about Cattle Decapitation. They had some influence on most of these bands!

[@Ryan-wj4ci]

Damn this brought me back to being a teenager spending hours on MySpace and KZbin finding new bands.

[@jamesbird93]

Music has never been more accessible now with streaming services but man... The satisfaction you'd get from finding bands through your favourite artists' top 8 or friends profile songs has never been replaced by modern social media. I vividly remember buying carnifex and suicide silence EPs on iTunes after finding them on MySpace, burning them to CD roms for my hifi and that's where my deathcore fandom began.

[@damonomadmusic]

Dude this was SO nostalgic and I appreciate you even having thought to make this video! It never occurred to me just how influential MySpace was in my discovery of Deathcore. Before then, it was just radio and random CDs from the Senior kids! Also... proud to report: Spotify told me I was in the top 1% listeners of And Hell Followed With, listeners last year lol. Deathcore will definitely remain near and dear to my love for music. Thanks again for this video!

[@wtdeuce1503]

That's cool man, advocating the possibility of having multiple styles, eras and whatnot together instead of having arguments over what is best. Good on you. Thanks for running this very wholesome channel.

i really love seeing how deathcore is now being re evaluated and appreciated. i loved that era and this video brought me such a nostalgia. thank you thank you thank you

[@smithd1322]

Man I Turned 18 in 2005, I still remember when this went wild out of nowhere, job for a cowboy and suicide silence hit the scene so hard. It was just so new and fresh and just fucking brutal and fun. It was really a new time for metal that's for sure, I remember the metal divide that started as well, the normal and death metal scene went nuts lol. I love all metal so it was wild to witness. The pits at the shows were nuts too, I remember a Parkway drive show with Suicide Silence and The Acacia Strain, and I was very lucky to see Mitch live, It was absolutely nuts, was seriously such a fun time back then. Amazing to look back on, thanks for the video!.

[@kentmarquez4929]

I don't know if it's a coincidence but I've slowly forgotten listening to deathcore for a year or two and started listening to a lot of hiphop, and I'm getting back into listening to my favorite bands just recently and this video just dropped

[@lilgoop]

Bro, I went through the exact same thing. That was several years ago, though.

[@Brumizona]

What an Awesome video, pure nostalgia

[@billnyedaguyshorts5708]

Sorry for the second comment but bro you hit a nerve with the breakdown compilations. Me and buddy used to just sit and smoke flower and vibe to the most brutal shit I’ve ever heard. So nice. Thanks for that, it’s time to revisit.

[@bradenprice2134]

I love the MySpace death core stuff, but I can’t lie modern death core can be very innovative

[@GaryEckhoff]

Awesome vid! You bringing back the nostalgia of my high school days earned my Like/Subscribe! I remember listening to almost ALL the bands you listed regardless of whichever type lol. I didn't realize until you mentioned it that I caught a few of them right when they came out! Like JFAC and Suicide Silence. I remember using Limewire to get the Doom EP and The Cleansing =D! Also I love Waking The Cadaver too! (As well as IWrestledABearOnce, Whitechapel, Veil of Maya, Carnifex, Annotations of An Autopsy, and many others!) - Btw, a few I was surprised I didn't hear were: A Different Breed Of Killer, Necrophagist, Nile, and Through The Eyes Of The Dead

[@xtheyan]

Hey thanks I’m glad you enjoyed ! And yes all those bands are legendary but it’s almost impossible to mention every single one of them in one video loll

[@GaryEckhoff]

@xtheyan yeah, I realized that after I commented lol. I started thinking of so many different bands I know/have heard and was like well, yeah that's way too many bands, he'd have a whole separate video to include all that. But! I will say I miss MySpace! I remember I had such a badass page, and a killer ass playlist that would start as soon as someone visited my page! I remember having to copy/paste a bunch of shit in the desceiption part to add all the cool shit but it was awesome. I never got into FB after MySpace died. I was like that's the end of Social Media for me lol. So no Twitter, Instagram, none of that shit. Just this YT acc is my only social stuff lol.

[@MatthewsTrueShow]

Video so good, brings a tears to my eyes. 👏👏💎🤧👏👏

[@omeedentezari]

You have an interesting perspective and I think it's valid. My own point of view was that deathcore arose during a period when Victory Records, Relapse, Candlelight, and other labels were issuing/re-issuing a lot of new (and old, classic) metal/hardcore albums, which really resonated with the generation of the early two-thousands. That same generation formed bands, calling themselves everything from grindcore to death metal to hardcore to deathcore. At the end of the day, almost all of them just played a form of post-hardcore, which is what I think deathcore essentially is. Just my two cents.

[@ragnarjenkins4120]

Great video! I got into deathcore really late. Like 2021 with the bands you mentioned-Lorna Shore, Angelmaker, and Infant Annihilator.And I never understood the hate for it. But you explained it well how different the scenes were from death metal. The reddit deathcore and other metal/hardcore communities have been great. I started with the new and was introduced to the old great albums such as the cleansing and pray for plagues. Every show has been amazing. I'm excited for new things this year like more Angelmaker, Infant Annihilator, and whatever Alex Teyen has in the works too. Thanks for the video, learned a lot good stuff!

[@DespisedDingus]

Maaaaan. I was in my early 20s during the MySpace deathcore days. Such a good time. Back when JFAC was doing small tours in the Midwest back in like 2009 I let the dudes crash at my place and it’s one of the best memories I have. We all got drunk and played street fighter. Plus I got some merch out of the hospitality. 😂 Thanks for this video. It brought back a lot of good memories. 🫶🏻

[@xtheyan]

Sounds like a good time haha

[@dylanrutherford4425]

Awesome video man!!! I also really miss the rawness and creativity of the MySpace era..it was such a cool time to be alive in!! Seeing bands like the red shore and the bands they toured with will forever be in my memories. I wish it felt the same these days but it is what it is haha

[@xtheyan]

[@peterm7613]

I'm pretty much new in metalcore deathcore and etc scene it's only been 8 years since I've started listening to it and back then I used to think where there's scream and heavy instrument play in music are straight up metal music which is nuts until it started to explore the depths of the entire scene, and thank you soo much for such informative video about deathcore I've learned a lot about it. And there's no doubt mitch is still the face of the deathcore scene cause to me personally i came to deathcore because of their "Unanswered" music video even though I had zero knowledge about deathcore scene but his band gave me all i wanted at that time from heavy breakdowns to crazy squeals...it was just all i needed. Rest in peace mitch lucker.

[@SpookyLion]

Man its so awesome to hear you talk about this. I really hope younger generations keep it alive. I always play this music for my 4yr old and 4 month old. Dont think they will ever appreciate it as much as our generation that lived it. But there is always hope lol

[@DeathMetalDuelist666]

I grew up in the MySpace era and my first favorites really shaped how I write riffs. From writing music since 2013, I noticed the decline was when the songwriting became homogenous. I can almost pinpoint 4 exact albums that explain the entirety of deathcore as it happened, and it will make sense when you read them. These are albums that became “the thing to be doing” and new bands at the time only did that exactly. Infant Annihilator: TPLOP Periphery: PIII Traitors: The Hate Campaign Lorna Shore: AIRTN I hope what I said makes sense, but everything changed when these became the big thing

I personally took a hiatus from the scene as, as i hit my late teens/early 20s is when Dubstep came about and that led me down a road of going to raves and getting into djing (I always felt dubstep just sounded like a continuous breakdown which i feel led me into that world). love the videos mate, keep 'em comen.

Deathcore is actually such a huge subgenre it's crazy. Most bands I listen today haven't been mentioned in this video. Stuff like Aversions Crown, The Acacia Strain (who do it since 2001), Humanity's Last Breath, Bodysnatcher, Cabal, it's all recommended good shit and sound very different from each other

the fact that in my around 3 year metal and death core phase i saw, lorna shore, white chapel, carnifex, chelsea grin, oceano all live just sinks in years later now that i think about it. I didn´t even knew it what kind of music it was i just liked it and kept on going to festivals and concerts. Now today with the knowledge i have today i must say, i was oblivious. i just never knew. it was cool looking people that make cool music.

i would so love a video on the revival scene as a whole, i think theres some bands that dont get the credit they deserve and id love to see if they make an appearance on that vid

Myspace deathcore kid here... This took me wayyyy back. Also, special shout-out to WCWBT, IWABO, and Alesana (the underrated legends).

Was at a dying fetus show last year, a young girl had corpsepaint on and was wearing a Korn Shirt, at a death Metal Show... Heavy music for friendly people (the Pit is friendly, knocked down, they Help you Up, but... You might go down)
