Don't be shit bands and you won't get shit tier analysis, I guess.

They're fucking uninspired trash.

Wage War is one of the top bands in metalcore. Blueprints was a game changer.

In This Moment has been around for a long time an pretty reputable amongst the industrial metal scene and have done a lot for other female fronted bands.

You’re clearly just a one celled imbecile.

Yes top bands in metalcore are doing half hour sets for real bands.

In this moment is fucking lip syncing. Everything else you said is irrelevant. Can't play your shit live? Then I don't care.

Why are you bitching at someone who doesn't like the music/bands that you seem to like? I think 99% of the music that has been posted in this thread is pure trash, its only saving grace is that the 1% is fucking amazing. Neither of these bands, Wage War / In This Moment, are in that 1%, not even close (imo). In This Moment has/had 1 song, from 8yrs ago that I think is good (Sick Like Me), and Wage War? They seem kinda generic. I listened to Blueprints, and stuff that was older and newer. Kinda bland. Not horrible though, like one of their newer songs "Manic" seemed alright even if they messed it up.

Not new, but new to me. People always recommend Gojira if you like Mastodon, and i just cant fully commit to Gojira...but the 1st minute of this song just gets me.

I wasn't a big fan of Gojira (still not) but man they put on a fantastic live show. Go check em out if they're ever in your area.

They’re one of my favorite metal bands. They really nail a balance between heavy/groove/tech.
Haven’t had the chance to see them yet.

Got super into this band lately



Like ... Norwegian Death Punk

Super interesting sound/genre mix; I'm also hearing what reminds me of late mid to late 90's west coast hardcore... but not as fast? These guys came to mind almost immediately:
