I just realized that I really like The Devil Wears Prada's Dead Throne and the new album 8:18. I'm not too partial to their older work anymore but these are pretty great albums. 

The band's been upping their game since the Zombie EP. Dead Throne and Zombie EP have been leagues away from their previous effort. New album sounds promising as well. Compare to the rest of the band in that genre, TDWP while being nothing new or special is still pretty consistent.

 

Anyway, more SPARTA

I've still only listened to Dead Throne, I might listen to 8:18 sometime

So their older stuff isn't that great?

Not really bad, just juvenile I guess? I think any of the albums are worth giving a chance to but their new albums are the best. I don't really like Zombie as much as most people seem to though. 

 

In any case, they're way better than any of the other scene crap you'll normally find at your local Hot Topic.

Do scene kids still listen to TDWP though? I don't know, seems like this band isn't as much as a scene band like how they're used to.

Not bad per say, they came from songs like the one below being their best to something as good as Dead Throne.

Maybe not as much anymore, but a lot of people still associate them with the "scene" bands. 

 

I actually like their older stuff better than I remember. It's put together really well.

Not bad at all, I'll probably look into their older stuff some more

I'd imagine so

 

 

And while we're on the topic of scene bands, is it just more or have the generic scenecore bands been growing up recently, even though I don't listen to or like any of them it's neat to see how a band like

I see you've taken a liking into Vilagvege, also new DT album? Sounds cool, haven't listened to them in a while.

 

Yea, they're both awesome. 

 

Construct is kind of like the new Projector as far as them leaning away from the faster, thrashy stuff and focusing more on texture and atmosphere, but the result is one of the best things they've ever done. It might take a few listens but it pays off.

I think that the album artwork looks awesome, can't wait for what Rorcal will put out next and also the new DT album sounds neat, I'll probably check it out soon.

The first few songs are great but it only gets better as it goes. Check it out! 

 

Pianos Become the Teeth is coming back to my area next month, hope I'll be able to catch that show. They'e supporting Defeater.

Pianos Become The Teeth is awesome live. Watching them live gives me chills but I must say, their lps and eps aren't as impressive as seeing them live. I don't know why but they never wow or blown me away. Just one of those bands that are much better live I guess...anyone else got this same problem with other bands?

 

And DGD got a new song.

Sounds to me like they just pussied up their music, for lack of a better term.  In both cases is it sounds very similar, just way more soft and whatnot.

While it is softer sounding and I still don't like either of those bands, it doesn't sound nearly as bad as their original stuff, it's also nice to see that the bands aren't wearing 50 pounds of eyeliner and mascara. If you ask me it sounds and looks like they realize how nobody takes them seriously. I guess soundwise it's not so different, but look-wise they've stepped up more.

 

 

 

First time I come back to this thread and you're talking about scene bands.

 

I don't even want to know why this is happening. I'm just going to leave, and come back after some pages.

 

Okay bye, have a nice day

I think you misunderstood the context of the post. Should've gone back a page, you would've seen discussion of the new Dark Tranquillity album. 

 

Anyway, Converge.

Seen them live. They're eh. Really not a fan of their singer. He's a really cool guy though.

 

You saw Converge live? Lucky guy, and about Jacob's vocals, that's understandable, they're an acquirred taste and Converge themselves are one of the more intense sounding Hardcore bands.

 

Some Eyehategod for you all

 

And while I'm in a Sludge-y mood might as well post some Baroness
