Formed from the remnants of a hardcore band named Eclipse, in the far-northern Swedish town of Umeå (also home to avant-hardcore masters Refused, and metal extremists Meshuggah and Naglfar), Cult of Luna have perfected an elaborate, extremely dark, progressive style of metalcore largely derived from the pioneering work of America's Neurosis....

Like From Autumn to Ashes, Nora, and Hopesfall (just to give three examples), Emery is an alternative pop/rock outfit that has been described as "melodic hardcore." That means that they aren't providing pure, unadulterated hardcore (let alone metalcore) in the traditional sense, but rather are melodic alternative pop/rockers who incorporate... [+] Read More

The southwestern United States is a forbidding place. Home to some of the hottest, driest land on earth, miles of baked highway ribbon through a vast terratial sea of sand, rock, and death. This landscape is no place for the weak.

Isis is a monolithic, breathing, dense, incredibly spiritual musical experience that, while rooted in heavy metal and the punk/hardcore aesthetic, relies just as heavily on ambience, atmosphere, and tone as it does complexity, aggressiveness and raw emotion. Not so much a band per se as a collective, the artisans who comprise the Boston quintet... [+] Read More

Slipknot's mix of grinding, post-Korn alternative metal, Marilyn Manson-esque neo-shock rock, and rap-metal helped make them one of the most popular bands in the so-called nu-metal explosion of the late '90s. But even more helpful was their theatrical, attention-grabbing image: the band always performed in identical industrial jump suits and... [+] Read More

Tool's greatest breakthrough was to introduce dark, vaguely underground metal to the preening pretentiousness of art rock. Or maybe it was introducing the self-absorbed pretension of art rock to the wearing grind of post-thrash metal -- the order really doesn't matter.
