#️⃣ #Metalcore

📚 The Charm The Fury is a now defunct metalcore band from Amsterdam, NL. They released an EP and 2 albums since their start in 2010.

🗣️ This was the first band I heard where I unbiasedly liked the screaming vocals of the singer. It helped a lot that this band was from 🇳🇱 the Netherlands, my stomping grounds.
I like their album ‘A Shade Of My Former Self’, so check it out!

#️⃣ #Metalcore #ProgressiveMetal

📚 Spiritbox is a Canadian metalcore band that formed in 2017. Lead singer Courtney LaPlante and guitarist Michael Stringer were previously playing in the band iwrestledabearonce, which was an experimental mathcore band.

🗣️ Courtney is awesome. That’s it. In all honesty her vocal abilities are quite amazing, the way she can go from cleans into screams and vice versa is amazing. The song I shared has a great example of this at the end. Some other great tracks: Holy Roller, Rule Of Nines and Secret Garden. Don’t forget to check out iwrestledabearonce - You Know That Ain't Them Dogs' Real Voices too 🐕

#️⃣ #MelodicHardcore

📚 Vilify is a 4-piece melodic hardcore band from Australia formed in 2020. They’ve released two EPs, their debut ‘Clarity’ and a double single release ‘Odyssey/Futility’.

🗣️ This band got promoted by Spaceuntravel and ended up in their Spotify playlist. At one point in the song some cleans came through and I finally realized that this was a woman screaming. I really like their sound a lot and they’re quite up-and-coming. They’re definitely leaning more towards the hardcore part of melodic hardcore 🤘.

🎶 Unleash The Archers - Tonight We Ride

#️⃣ #MelodicDeathMetal #PowerMetal

📚 Unleash The Archers plays a fusion of traditional heavy metal with power metal and melodic death metal. The Canadian band was formed in 2007 and has a big repertoire of albums and EPs.

🗣️ Power metal normally strays away from my music taste but Brittney’s voice (in fact her entire vocal range) adds so much uniqueness to this band that it becomes quite soothing. Their songs always feel quite epic and they go all out in their music videos!

#️⃣ #MelodicHardcore #PostHardcore

📚 Saviour are an Australian melodic hardcore band formed in 2009. The band mixes melodies with blasting breakdowns like no other. They’ve released several albums.

🗣️ The juxtaposition of heavy screams and the angelic choruses is just something that speaks to me. I have played this specific song so many times. While Shontay only does cleans, there’s quite a grunge feeling to it. Other songs to checkout: Unstoppable, The Quiet Calm and Undead.

#️⃣ #MelodicHardcore #Metalcore

📚 Make Them Suffer are a melodic hardcore band from Australia. They’ve been performing since 2013 and released multiple albums. Their modus operandi is heavy deathcore with clean angelic vocals.

🗣️ This band, specifically this song, has everything that I like. Heavy music, raw emotions that can be felt and angelic voices to bring it all together. These vocals as well as the keyboard tunes are provided by Booka Nile. However she recently left the band and in her place has come Alex Reade who fills the role neatly. Do check out the song ‘Doomswitch’ with her.

📚 SeeYouSpaceCowboy is a metalcore band from California, US formed in 2016. Their music mixes mathcore and grindcore like sounds to a heavy dose of straight up metal.

🗣️ The golden days of emo, that’s what this reminds me of. I got hooked on a collab they did with If I Die First on the song ‘bloodstainedeyes’. Connie Sgarbossa (she/her) has piercing screams and a great way to discover those is to also check out ‘Late December’ a spoken-word song that bursts out into chaos. And Connie.. #SheScreams 🤩

🗣️ This band, this song even, should probably have been the opening for this series. Riffs, drums, screaming your lungs out, clean vocals to cross the bridge; ready to conquer and divide the patriarchy. At least I hope so.

Personally I’m not a fan of the copious amount of djent in their songs, but this is definitely a band you should check out. One of their most famous songs is ‘Pisces’ where she catches everyone off guard with her voice.

📚 Shoot The Girl First is a metalcore band from Nice, France. They formed in 2010 and were playing post-hardcore with electro. Recently they’ve switched more towards metalcore. They’ve released 3 main albums in 2011, 2013 and 2016.

🗣️ Shoot The Girl First was born in the golden age of emo and were pretty much crabcore. 🦀 Their song “Last Breath For A Capulet” encapsulates it all. The album they released in 2013, “Follow The Clouds”, is moving more towards metalcore, but still with electronics. Their latest album in 2016 can be considered metalcore, electronics still included. Julie Bourboujas plays synth and does screams. Early on as backup screams (that’s a thing!) but with their latest album it’s pretty much 50/50.

Thanks, great advice, cool song, though. Someone in the commetns said that this was his first hearing a female vocalist do the "Blegh" - and from there on it was clear that I would listen to the whole song. ;-)
