I've been getting into a lot of metalcore/melodic hardcore (or whatever you want to call the sub-genre, you know what I mean), so I'm looking for suggestions of bands I should check out. Definately has to have a tune to it and be good musically, and have singing as well as/instead of shouting. Here are some of the bands of this type I'm listening to just now:

Belvedere

Brand New

Coheed And Cambria

Finch

From Autumn To Ashes

Funeral For A Friend

Glassjaw

The Movielife

Silverstein

Taking Back Sunday

Thrice

The Used

Thanks for any help, or fuck you if you comment on my musical tastes - I didn't ask for that.

Avenged Sevenfold

Thrice

By the way.. nice picks Bam Bam. I think we listen to very similar music.

Thanks for the inmput guys - keep them coming.

I already listen to a lot of Thrice - one of my favourite bands for sure!

 
^Sorry about that, I must not have seen it the first time.

BamBam- you might also like:

alexis on fire

Beloved (similar to thrice)

Converge (crazy bastards, it'll grow on you though)

Poison The Well

Strike Anywhere

Small Brown Bike (also similar to thrice)

im suprised that nobody has mentioned Shai Hulud yet. 'set your body ablaze' is probably the best melodic hardcore song ever. other than that:

poison the well - 'grain of salt' and 'a wish for things that work'

hopesfall - 'the end of an era' and 'from your hands' are great songs

and if you're super pissed - the haunted (slayerish stuff - awesome!)

oh yeah, Thursday is also really good, and a little more poppy.

Story of the year badass band saw then in concert a month ago

There is no such thing as shitty snow only shitty skiers.

If it was easy they would call it snowboarding.

Alpinecowboy84 is a fucking fag
 
avenged sevenfold (already been said, but deserves to be said again)

slayer

hatebreed

thrice

dope

refused

armsbendback (saw their cd in wal-mart, bought it and it was pretty good)

poison the well

If you ever catch on fire, don't look in the mirror, cause I bet that would really throw you into a panic!
 
Who wants to bet me money that, that stupid knob DUCTTAPEBOY posts in this thread. I betcha....

Commander of the Silent Army

Viva La Resistance!

 
I was going to say Shai Hulud. Pretty fucking cool melodic hardcore. I'm totally feeling the song Hardly lately, check it you.

-Lauren

THE FIST OF FURY

Fistin' Mad Bitches!
 
'slayer, hatebreed...' melodic??? hells no. maybe metalcore, NOT melodic hardcore.

hopesfall, alexisonfire, underoath, stretch arm strong, from autumn to ashes, blindside...these are melodic hardcore bands.

'I heard that Richard Gere gerbils. That is, he inserts gerbils into a paper towel tube, which he then sticks up his butthole. I don't doubt this, because he asked me if i wanted to come over to his house and gerbil. I insisted that he come over to MY house, since the whole thing seemed weird. As a practical joke, i attached a bucket of water to the top of the door so that when he opened it, I beat him with a mannequin leg.'-Skydaddy
 
pretty wide range there...

here's a few. i'll try not to repeat:

evergreen terrace

dragonforce (freaking awesome)

dead poetic

anatomy of a ghost (been said but i love them)

evanstar (local co band)

fear before the march of flames (also local)

norma jean

every time i die (hot damn! greatest title ever.)

senses fail (i'm not a fan, but you might like them)

yah, that's all i can think of for now. i haven't really been keeping up with the scene recently.

here's a fucking sad story: so i was at target yesterday looking at dvds (they're dirt cheap there) and i wandered over to the cd aisle. low and behold, there was a 'fresh sound' rack and on it was avenged sevenfold, thrice, coheed (that pissed me off. they're too good for target), and even the sounds album. to add to it, as i was looking at games coheed's 'devil in jersey city' video pops up on all of the tvs in target followed by an ad for punk goes acoustic. wtf?? down with the main stream!

Lizziebeth, shut the fuck up. There is NOTHING wrong with mainstream. Target showing a video or selling CDs affects nothing.

 
And thanks again to everyone for the suggestions. Unfortunately my hard drive is screwed (it's physically damaged somehow) and I've lost 10Gb of mp3s and a few Gb of photos. Most of my photos and about 8Gb of music are on my home computer too though, so I can get most of it back, but it's going to be a whole lot of hassle tracking down stuff I've downloaded in the past three months and get all my programs back.

Moral of the story? Back up everything. If my mp3 player wasn't broken just now I would have been able to recover almost everything from it and save a whole lot of time. Whether it's on HDD, CD or DVD, back up your stuff people.

 
Shai Hulud

Snapcase

boysetsfire

funeral for a friend

coalesce

fig 4.0 (bit more thrash than MH)

mewithoutyou-really good, probably right up your alley and a lot more intellectual than a lot of that other stuff

give up the ghost

comeback kid

the hope conspiracy

stretch arm strong

--these are all pretty much straight up hardcore

unearth

eighteen visions

zao

as i lay dying

--these are more on the metal side of things

underoath

hopesfall

and if you can find them-one dying wish, grace gale, or shogun--three awesome CO metalcore bands although two of which are now defunct

--metalcore at its finest

hope this helps

 
Arice- One Dying Wish and Grace Gale are excellent picks.

I have a feeling you're from the Denver-area.

same exact thing ^ happened to me a target lizzie, but i saw brand new, poisen the well, coheed and thursday cd's and saw the coheed video an I felt pissed as hell too. So i guess that guy can tell me to shut the fuck up too... I think its jelousy that does it, i mean i been a brand new fan for at least 2 years and it pisses me off to see all these 13 year olds in brand new shirts. Oh and Bam check out Alexisonfire, Boys night out, boysetsfire, hopesfall and the beautiful mistake.

You're not like the others with their empty eyes and plastic smiles.
