yes deafheaven is explosions in the sky mixed with your favorite metalcore band.

google, people shitting loudly, and you'll find what you're looking for

>>52500730
i'm looking for something with speed like metal, not post-rock

I've never listened to Sun Bat Her in its entirety, but I feel confident in saying it's over rated shit and I prefer Alcest

>>52500711
i liked it

>>52500730
Deafheaven has zero elements of metalcore.

>>52500711
Do you like metal at all or are you more attracted to the ambient and atmospheric soundscapes?

>>52501416
Deafheaven is shit, and that's an element of metalcore

>>52501429
I see you're stating your opinion as fact. You're shit.

>>52501416
i like post-rock like Russian Circles and Pelican
but never head metal infused like this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpblqUh_C24

I really like Deafheaven, judge me.

>>52501525
You've mentioned two bands that are very similar. I'm racking my brain trying to think of more artists like Deafheaven. Sunbather is a pretty standalone pieces from what I've found.

An album you might really enjoy that has a lot of atmospherics is the new Fallujah album. It's called The Flesh Prevails. It's a lot heavier and it's a lot more technical but it has a lot of atmosphere and has a really puffy soft tonal quality. Check this out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DSUNCuTYFo

This album is really heavy though, the first few tracks are quite the onslaught but the atmosphere is great throughout.

>>52500711
Russian Circles
Red Sparowes

closest match I can think of

>tfw people always use post metal to refer to shit like Deafheaven and atmo-sludge
>tfw no one ever talks about Solstafir's later shit even though it's objectively better

>>52501780
I've heard a bit of Solstafir, can't get into it.

Post-metal is weird because bands from Rosetta to Neurosis to Russian Circles are all encompassed beneath its umbrella.

>>52500711
Listen to Rosetta.

>>52501676
Really good album.

If we're talking atmosphere here, I'd like to throw this out there. It's djenty prog metal, but it's got such a good atmosphere. Good vocals too.

>>52501780
saw them with pallbearer recently, good shit

>>52501809
>>52501676

both hella gay

>>52501809
Shit, dude, I didn't even think of TesseracT. One is amazing, too. I like One more but that's because it's a lot more personal to me regarding the lyrics, plus I like the vocals more even though the clean bits are extremely similar. Tompkins and Ashe are both so good!

>>52501865
What's your suggestion or what is not "gay" to you?

>>52500711
Oathbreaker, still got vocals but thought you might like them anyway. Similar stuff only with a qt as a vocalist

>>52501870
>Tompkins and Ashe are both so good!
Amen dude. Dan is incredibly talented, and Ashe is probably my favorite metal vocalist ever.

Have you listened to Skyharbor's new album? Good shit.

Can't wait to see what Dan will bring to the table with TesseracT next.

>>52501935
I can't get into Skyharbor. Nothing really catches my ears with them.

Ashe is your favorite metal vocalist? He's the clean one? Just wanting to clear it up to think about it.

Lately I've been listening to a lot of stuff all over the place, Ramshackle Glory, Agoraphbic Nosebleed, Scroobius Pip. My brain is spacing out haha

>>52501891
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXS1E4RNOaI

>>52501996
I love Mamaleek.

>>52501971
Yeah he's the clean one.

Ah fuck, I love Ramshackle Glory! And Scroobius Pip seems incredibly interesting. Apparently he does some spoken word stuff? I'll have to check him out.

>>52502069
Here you go, dude. It's good stuff. The videos are really awesome and a good start, too.

https://soundcloud.com/hhisntd/sets/s

Ramshackle has really been helping me sort through some things. Pat's lyrics are amazing. I've been having problems since I quit drinking and I've been sorting my life out socially and whatever. Figuring out who I am and it turns out I still believe in a lot of what I used to when I was younger. Live the Dream + The War on Errorism (NOFX) put everything back in perspective. I'm just less angsty haha

Have you heard Big Swamp Gospel?

I smoked a joint with Deafheaven after a show and they're cool af so fuck you niggers.

>>52502069
That's weird that Ashe is your favorite metal vocalist and he only does clean vocals haha, pretty neat. I don't know if I have a favorite, I listen to so much music and it's more about everything together anymore. I'm amazed by people like Scott Hull who writes all of the Agoraphobic Nosebleed and Pig Destroyer stuff. He programs the drums for AN and then their drummer records then after the fact and it blows my mind what he produces and writes for the drums along with his utilization of 8 string guitars and his originality and hard hitting style of riffs.

Ashe is amazing. Do you like Devin Townsend stuff?

>>52502109
Listening now, great so far. Thanks.

And I feel you dude. I really like music where lyrics take the wheel - and a lot of folk punk stuff does that.

And no, I haven't, is it any good?

>>52502137
Haha right? I just love his melodic style, and his great sense of dynamics. And being a high tenor myself, I have a soft spot for high voices.

I've never really listened to grindcore. Is Agoraphobic Nosebleed a artist to start out with?

And I've actually never listened to Devin Townsend... I should get on that!

>>52502295
Big Swamp Gospel has one of my favorite Pat melodies, it's also a really cool concept album. This is the song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkFORiAOwaM

Folk punk is definitely finding a spot in my heart. I tried to shut it out for a long time but I have a friend who is super into it and over the last year I've finally started feeling again and accepting it's wonderfulness.

Are you a singer of sorts?

Devin Townsend is great, lots of different stuff to check out.

Grindcore is pretty out there and there's a lot to it. Agorapocalypse is a cool album but it's a non traditional grindcore style. It's just obliterating and loud, fast, groovy, with a lot of wild vocals. It's good if you're into really heavy stuff. A lot of grindcore is shit, though. I don't listen to much traditional stuff. Napalm Death's Smear Campaign is also really good and the first two Pig Destroyer albums are fucking awesome.

>>52500711
Lantlos - Melting Sun

>>52502387
Now that is an amazing album I have forgotten to listen to more.

i got u

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37jiv0580HA

>>52502387
the vocals are definitely more bearable, but it's not as heavy

>>52502568
yea but it has the kind of shoegazing elements like Sunbather

>>52502373
Yeah, I sing, play bass, piano, and guitar. In my band I do vocals and bass, haha.

Awesome, thanks for the rec dude.

>>52502645
Does your band have any music on the interwebs?

I can play guitar and bass, I think I'll learn piano some day.

No problem. Grindcore is really hateful, some people can't dig it, others don't think it's even a real genre.

>>52502671
Nope, sadly. We play a sort of garage rock, though.

Piano isn't nearly as hard as people make it out to be. It's an amazing tool for songwriting, you can just play stuff that sounds good with 0 prior musical knowledge.

>>52502743
I can definitely fool around and write stuff on it I just can't do the whole rhythm and lead thing with separate hands. Seems like a easy instrument to bullshit that people are really impressed with if you make it sound good. Actually that's every instrument...

>>52501996
good rec but not like sunbather in any way

>>52502592
don't get me wrong, i like it.

>>52500895
faggot

Unfortunately I don't know any fully instrumental Blackgaze bands, but if you want instrumental metal with atmosphere, then check out
Pelican - The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw
Russian Circles - Empros
If These Trees Could Talk - Red Forest (not metal per se, more post hard rock)
Also, if you want some atmospheric metal with minimal vocals, check out
Wolves In The Throne Room - Diadem Of 12 Stars
Botanist - VI: Flora
Isis - Panopticon
If none of these are really doing it for you and you just want Blackgaze, then check out
Lantlos -.neon
Liturgy - Aesthetica
An Autumn For Crippled Children - Try Not To Destroy Everything You Love
Alcest - Ecailles de Lune
mol - mol (only an EP, but very good nonetheless)
Hope this helped. Sorry I couldn't post any youtube links, captcha's fucked on my computer and posting links on my phone is a real bitch.

>>52502387
liking this. has very few vocals

>>52503066
never heard of Blackgaze before, very impressive

Have you tried older Deafheaven?

vesper - entropia
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmKxd63Q_QQ

Altar of plagues - White tomb
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkWx6qLUVpE

heretoir - heretoir

Panopticon - collapse

krallice - dimensional bleedthrough

>>52501996
this is good as fuck just so you know. any more black metal like this?

>>52501996
Aren't these guys on enemies list?

>>52500711

the vocals are really good though... I don't understand why people think they aren't suited for the music when it's very clear that the album has drawn a lot of inspiration from black metal.

>>52504575
different people have different tastes.
personally i would love to hear a instrumental version of the album.

>>52504527
takes one online search to know

>>52504492

wreck and reference

>>52504575
I listened to it again the other day, because apparently I should've given it another shot and approached it from a "post rock" perspective.

I got more out of it, but not much.

I made sure to listen out for the supposed "metal" riffing too (counted five distinctly 'metal' riffs). I was pretty disappointed from that angle.

The rhythm section is the only part that can be considered metal, and is the only spot where you can hear third-wave black metal influence. That isn't a detractor from the music though, just a genre distinction.

What I mostly didn't like was the overuse of played-out, distinctly vanilla post-rock and 'gaze effects (short delay reverb, really?), and cheesy, cliche songwriting. It came across as incredibly hackneyed, bordering on crescendo-core at times. I guess to someone who's new to (sub)genres like post rock, screamo, or blackgaze they'd find it pretty interesting or special, and I'd suggest anyone who does to explore those areas of music more.

I was talking to someone who was pretty adamant about the albums' quality awhile ago and they told me they grew out of it already after exploring those genres more, and that now listening to it is "a little disappointing." Go figure.

>>52505158
but the metal riffs and gazing was what caught my attention.
never head a post-rock band using different styles other than including synths.

>>52505301
*heard

>>52501416
>Deafheaven has zero elements of metalcore.

You know, zero besides the vocals.

>>52505301
You really need to listen to more post-rock then.

>>52505430
ok i forgot MONO and classical music

suggest something different other than that.

>>52500895
>i prefer alcest
nice meme

>>52500711
It annoys me when people say they like sunbather except the vocals. I know people have their preferences but come on, it would be less exciting without the vocals.

>>52506304
those same people will love it once they realize harsh vocals are "in"

>>52505385
not the anon you replied to but I really wonder what metalcore bands you have listened to

>>52505564
>>52500895

Alcest is great though

>>52505385
>>Deafheaven has zero elements of metalcore.
>You know, zero besides the vocals.

Deafheaven vocals comes from black metal.

>>52505564
LOL MEMES HJHAHAHAHAHAH I POST MEMES LOL LOOK AT ME I"M SO FUNNEE
XDDDD LOLAKJGKAJGBKbAHBJAKH MEMEMEMSMS

>>52506815

black metal is a type of metal you retard, same as metalcore, both have metalcore vocals.

>>52506596

Bullet For My Valentine

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHgFJEJgUrg

>>52507245
I'd say black metal vocals are more similar to death metal than metalcore

>>52506304
there should be place for both, just like post-rock with and without vocals.

>>52507245
>>52505385

metalcore is pop singing with screaming mixed in. i know someone who listens to nothing but metalcore and was forced to hear a lot of it.

>>52507321
i hope this is a joke. this neither sounds anything like deafheaven vocals or metalcore.

toundra, nice spanish instrumental band
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyfdVdLGQpg

>>52507245
Going by your logic, apple pie is a type of dessert, same as lemon meringue, both contain lemons.

>>52508937
Go listen to August Burns Red or Parkway Drive

>>52508937
>>52509004
I meant to add that they don't use clean vocals at all

>>52509004
Parkway Drive is more like deathcore
>>52508979
yess

>>52500711
this shit has vocals? thats something new i was pretty sure that it was cat inside oven screaming lol

am i rite guise?

>>52509028
well the average metalcore now a days rarely has screaming in it even. its more about girly sounding male singers.

>>52509115
That's just the popular bands that are still called "metalcore" despite not really being metalcore. I assume you are talking about bands like AA and Bring Me The Horizon, who are both moving away from metalcore

>>52509115
that's what today is called "post-hardcore"
>sleeping with sirens
>pierce the veil
and the list goes on

>>52509685
aswell as pop-punk influenced bands like ADTR and CNCC. scene kids can't tell the difference and just call everything metalcore.

>>52508937
>metalcore
>pop singing
Sure if you only listen to shit post 2000's bands.

Aves is instrumental blackgaze, but with more of a post punk sound

>>52509001

exactly.

>>52500711
This may not be exactly what you're asking for, but you'll probably like this.
