11 Most Innovative Metalcore Albums | The Devil Wears Prada's Picks 

Highly jealous of this.

I saw bmth and architects about 7 times from 2008-2013 in Canada. Back when it was like $18 no cover to see a show lol. Did a meet and greet with bmth once as well, they were super chill back in 2011. Crazy they're still around and doing so well.

Gigs will never be this cheap again

it gave me chills hearing him say that.

same here. The Artist in the Ambulance is a top tier album imo

The Underoath influence is blatant in Plagues specifically.

@@olivuuuur Yes it is amazing but please go listen to The Illusion of Safety, if you’ve never heard it. God this album makes my heart sing.

@@mementomori2839 Act of Depression and Cries of the Past definitely influenced Dear Love: A Beutiful Discord. All three have such a dark and spooky mood.

I've always said this was a game-changing record if you played music. I just wrote guitar differently after hearing it.

I immediately started to comment "I fucking _love_ Pass The Flask", then I saw this comment, so I put it as a reply. This album was so great for it's time.

It definitely is on my top 5 best post-hardcore albums ever made

That shit hit completely different than anything out at that time

Came here to say this. Their second album was fantastic too.

The only part I disagreed with was when he said they had not aged well haha

@@CreativeFitz haha yah that made me sad too. I still bump them on the regular, they were literally on my Apple Music next song haha

Most underrated pure metalcore band by far.

@@CreativeFitz I think his comment on it ageing poorly might be more about the production

Same with Misey Signals, but this is The Devil Wears Prada’s interpretation

i was definitely disappointed to not see Zao OR Poison the Well....or Converge...

Zao slays all these foos.

There is a quick mention on 10:18, but no records from them on this list.

The Running EP is much better

@@victorfroes6650 ehhhhh

@@victorfroes6650 i wouldnt say it was better but kiss it goodbye was a really good tune

man, i used to listen to from autumn to ashes on repeat.. KC90210

Thanks for the recs cuz it’s my favorite album of all time so I am going to listen to these you’ve recommended.

Yeah i think underoath may have been the first deathcore band. Nobody gives them the credit though

Death to traitors was a good song by them

Death to traitors was a good song by Beloved

It makes sense as influential albums for them. Patterns/Dear Love definitely sounds more like TCOT than TOCS

Underoath had a MUCH better singer on The Changing of Times than They're Only Chasing Safety and then they got what's his name haha I can't remember either of their singers names now. The guy they have now I could never take him seriously I loved Underoath til they released TOCS then I was like nahhhhh they got to safe for me...I was always into heavier stuff though. And props to TDWP for never recanting on their Christian Beliefs even after the beef with Behemoth's Nergal...Nergal is just a man...everyone seems so afraid of him and a skinny little man at that who does Yoga and worships Satan hahaha now that's just funny in some way!

@@allencarey7336 soooo much wrong with this comment lmao 1. The only lineup change since Changing of Times (other than the one album that didn't have Aaron) is swapping Spencer for Dallas, who is a much better vocalist for them and the heavier direction they went afterwards. I do really like Dallas in Maylene and old UØ, but he couldn't do what Spencer does, and his screaming clearly took a toll on his voice, because it's far from what it used to be 2. Clearly you haven't kept up with UØ if you think that anything past TOCS is "safe" lmao. Define the Great Line up to current day Voyeurist (even on Erase Me, although that was more "safe" in some ways) is some of the weirdest, most experimental music we have in the scene, ESPECIALLY for a band as big as Underoath 3. TDWP stopped claiming Christianity a decade ago, they just never made any public statements about it. Most of the members aren't Christians

@@brendangibson8200 ummm yes I listened to OLD UNDEROATH which is ALOT more metal than they ever were with Spencer...and yes I've heard their new Album which blows Nuts, and Disambiguation (I believe it was called also sucked) and the reason TDWP didn't mention UNDEROATH with Spencer is because all the old skool fans couldn't stand whiny bitch boy Spencer when he came to sing...and thank you for reminding me it was Dallas I couldn't remember his name...the ONLY album I ever thought Spencer actually did OK on was the other one you mentioned I believe it was after TOCS but yeah Spencer has always been a poser poooo boy if ya ask me....and the incident with TDWP giving Nergal from Behemoth a Bible only happened about 4 to 6 years ago so I don't know where you're getting your info...they've remained Christians in a band...maybe not a Christian Band but I know for a fact 3 of the members are

@@allencarey7336 dang, I didn't realize that 2007 was only 5 years ago 😂 Being "more metal" doesn't make it better. TCOT wasn't as metal as everything after TOCS, so by your standards, they should be better 🤷‍♂️ And yeah, Acts of Depression and Cries of the Past are awesome, but they couldn't have done songs like that forever or he would have blown his voice from bad technique. You can say Spencer is a "poser" all you want, but that's not gonna change the fact that Dallas couldn't have kept up with the rest of the band

Very underrated Christian band.

Drive by hardcore dancing 😂

Honestly could not get into that album. Their first one was v nice tho

Symphony in Peril is such a gross Christianity. Like if this was two hundred years ago, for sure they'd be murdering teenage girls.

@@aplus1080 Well it’s not and they haven’t, they just made one really good album, one mediocre album, so what’s your point here bud?

Post hardcore

@@atvena and that too

What beef? Underoath walked so TDWP could run on the Electronic side of Metalcore. There were bands that came out around the same time as TDWP when Underoath finally hit their breakthrough in fusing Electronics into Post Hardcore and Metalcore after The Changing of Times led into They're Only Chasing Safety. The only difference is TDWP were one of the first bands, if not, the first band to get the formula right. TDWP paved the way for bands to work with Joey Sturgis and it was Joey who produced an entire generation of bands afterwards. If TDWP didn't work with Joey and if they didn't actually have cool songs on top of Joey's production, then, bands like Attack Attack! who took direct influence from TDWP wouldn't have been as successful in any way shape or form, who then spawned Asking Alexandria who followed Prada's footsteps, but refined Attack Attack!'s overblown method of Electronic scene kid Metalcore. With Roots peaked at #11 in 2009 on the billboard 200 and that was awesome for its time, which in reality, was basically number 10. Dead Throne was in the top 10 billboard 200 in 2011 as well. Reckless and Relentless peaked at #9 on the billboard 200 in 2011 and they were brand new. A band with only two full lengths who were a parody of a parody (Attack Attack!) who did not do nowhere near as much development for the scene did not deserve to have that kind of success. Asking Alexandria perfected the formula laid down by Underoath and had Joey master the production quality by their time, however, Asking Alexandria mainly influenced image for good or worse and the bands they directly inspired were horrible like Forget My Silence or Capture The Crown. I would say once Sempiternal by Bring Me The Horizon came out, was when Metalcore had become redefined.

same

100%

Bro did you hear that bring me album. What the fuxk

Misery Signals should have been here

They were ripping off eighteen visions though

Atreyu suicide notes and butterfly kisses, and the curse were both great albums!

He mentions them #11
