Post August Burns Red
Anyone heard of them? They're an american-based Christian Metalcore band. Don't worry about the christian part though, you can't understand the words anyways. Anywho, here's some of their stuff:

No replies to this? Love these guys. Just saw them live Sunday night.

Very talented, and pretty incredibly lyrics, even if you're not a Christian, though many of their songs mean more if you are.

Constellations is one of my favorite albums ever. Amazing songs throughout. If you like metal, give it a try.

I must say, I like their screamer of Constellations and Messengers (they had a different vocalist for each album before that), he's got boatloads of talent, and his screaming is actually somewhat understandable if you listen closely, which is almost unheard of with most screamo bands.

I've found that most of their songs I can understand once I read the lyrics while listening. It helps a ton. And yeah, hes really good. Constellations was full, from beginning to end, with epic songs. Messengers had Backburner, Redemption (incredibly lyrics), Truth of a Liar, and Composure.

Have you listened to other metal much?

Demon Hunter and Oh, Sleeper are both awesome, and a less metal band is Blessthefall.

Haven't listened to their first album, Thrill Seeker enough to tell if he's different or its a different style. But Messengers and Constellations are awesome.

Their style is the same, possibly a little more aggressive..not sure. But its just their screamer that is what I don't like haha.

And yeah, I listen to a lot of metal, Death metal, metalcore, and what not. 2 of my friends are in a metal band and I go see their shows and stuff. Demon Hunter, All That Remains, As I Lay Dying..it's all good :)

There's actually a place called the "First Street Warehouse" near where I live and every saturday there's shows from local/semi-local bands that come and play. It's pretty epic. A Plea For Purging has been there, Spoken (not really metal I guess)..uhh..not many other big bands I don't think.

I've listened to A Plea for Purging a little, I just don't like their vocalist much.

Also, Demon Hunter has a new album coming out in a little less than a month, a few songs are up.

August Burns Red is an amazing band. Their riffs are pretty cool, especially the ones in Meddler and Existence.

Love Meddler, Existence is good too. Composure is incredible, as is Backburner, Mariana's trench, etc. They're pretty awesome live too.
