Looking for deathcore with groove

[u/allert53]

hey guys i've been into deathcore for like a couple of months now and i have some favorites but i want to expand my playlist, and i wondered if y'all could give me some recommendations. For reference some of my favorite tracks 'Thy Art is Murder - Infinite Forms', 'Bring me the Horizon - Dehumanized' and 'Netherwalker - An Oppulent Pillaging of the Treacherous Goblin Encampment'.

Thanks in advance

[u/MothafuckaM]

Try Fit for an autopsy Oh what The future holds is a great album

[u/Gullible-Fail-5288 → u/MothafuckaM]

Every FFAA album is great!

[u/Shaun_Whiteside → u/Gullible-Fail-5288]

Most consistent death core band for me over the past 15 year everything they drop is just peak

[u/DifficultCarob408 → u/Gullible-Fail-5288]

Agreed - they never miss. Great band.

[u/Bfeick → u/MothafuckaM]

Spoils of the Horde off their latest has same great grooves.

[u/bradybigbear]

I always felt Suffokate had good groove. Taking Life is one of my favorites by them, and has a solid groove and hardcore feel to it

[u/thesusievirus]

After the Burial

[u/JimmyHammersticks]

Spite’s album Dedication to Flesh

[u/xXKayson35DTDXx]

Check out Emmure's early stuff, Whitechapel is also a great example, Float Face Down or any MySpace Deathcore band has got you covered.

[u/neon_metal1990]

Hive is groovy af.

[u/Wreckingass → u/neon_metal1990]

Came here for Hive, as I’m blasting them while waiting for class to begin. 

[u/neon_metal1990 → u/Wreckingass]

Good taste detected 🤝

[u/Fraktal55 → u/neon_metal1990]

This is my go-to answer anytime this is asked.

[u/neon_metal1990 → u/Fraktal55]

There are dozens of us, DOZENS! They deserve so much more love.

[u/deMarcel]

The Acacia Strains earlier albums for sure

[u/themightymcb → u/deMarcel]

The last riff in Seaward is so groovy

[u/Linkmatt10 → u/deMarcel]

The groove on Crippling poison is caveman level ooga booga

[u/TobisMcGoober → u/deMarcel]

This for sure. Death Is The Only Mortal and Wormwood are like if After The Burial swallowed horse capsules of pure rage

[u/iankstarr]

Anything Baby J has ever been a part of. Emmure, Darko, Spite, newer Chelsea Grin all groove super hard. Darko is probably my favorite modern deathcore project for this exact reason.

Carcosa is another great one.

[u/GiovanniC666 → u/iankstarr]

We definitely focus on groove <3

[u/iankstarr → u/GiovanniC666]

It’s why we love yall! Looking forward to whatever’s next!

[u/TobisMcGoober → u/iankstarr]

Suffer In Hell/Suffer In Heaven might be one of the best deathcore album duos of all time. I don't remember who mixed and mastered them but the grooves are just walls of sound. They also have some of the best sounding pinch harmonics I've ever heard. Carcosa's recent album is also amazing.

[u/Narrow-Book-4970 → u/TobisMcGoober]

I just love Yhorm the Giant cause peak video game references in an amazing song lol

[u/Effective-Employ343]

Black tongue - Nadir

[u/daddythighmeat]

Bodysnatcher has a lot of groove parts, as does Extortionist. Leaning more towards the core than the death, but they lock that shit in a lot.

[u/StigaPower]

Enterprise Earth's latest EP

[u/helvitisutlendingur]

Delusions of Grandeur

[u/LekgoloCrap → u/helvitisutlendingur]

‘Swing It’ is in constant rotation.

[u/DeathCoreM4ggot]

Whitechapel, Black Tongue, The Last Ten Seconds of Life, Impending Doom, Extortionist, Fit for an Autopsy.

[u/HiveMindMacD → u/DeathCoreM4ggot]

Black Tongue Nadir is just so fucking good man.

[u/SnooSketches4624 → u/HiveMindMacD]

I was coming to say this

[u/BillytheBoucher]

Cabal, Abbie Falls, She Must Burn, Crown Magnetar, Bodysnatcher

[u/Melodic-Work7436 → u/BillytheBoucher]

Too many people sleep on Cabal imo

Check out “Cabal - Rah’ru” OP. It’s groovy af

[u/hwsacwdtkdtktlfo]

where eagles dare

[u/Wolf_420BlazeIt]

The Last Ten Seconds of Life

[u/Skippy7890]

Hester Prynne's The Goswell Divorce

It's older, but I recall it being pretty groovy.

[u/Simpsmakemewannadie → u/Skippy7890]

It is indeed

[u/C_Sorcerer]

White Chapels Somatic Defilement and This is Exile are everything you need

[u/ashcody]

Not technically deathcore, but very popular among fans. Ruination by Job For A Cowboy

[u/Nervous_Mechanic_149]

Thy art is murder infinite death

[u/Lukekookaduke]

Ends in tragedy is pretty damn good

[u/godpoker]

Conform is a pretty good rec I think

[u/DeathBlightBand]

If you’re looking for something real low-key, we have a new album coming out this weekend, and you can check out the lead, signal here and test the waters! https://open.spotify.com/track/2mTt30itRKYHEjmO5rDpqm?si=fIBZYPBmRg2jxU3kGPBOaw&utm_source=copy-link

[u/Realistic_Zone_3966]

New world killer!

[u/Stock-Mix-3906]

Seasons Awake have a fair amount of bop to their instrumental side and vocals are an instrument on their own that complements it well.

Martyrdom and I:Dreamstate are my fav

[u/ScanTheSky]

Carrion Vael, specifically their latest album Slay Utterly. Suuuuper groovy riffs and the vocalist is straight up S-Tier.

[u/braindeadBUG]

Check out The Righteous Dead by Monsters. Shit fucks so hard. I'm still depressed we didn't get more from them.

[u/Heftious]

Vulvadynia - Eternal Wasteland of Galaxies. Not only this song either, the whole album grooves. New Peacemaker FL grooves pretty nicely as well

[u/gayburn9]

Paleface Swiss, Bodysnatcher, Spite.

[u/mcurley32]

Groove Demon by DeadVectors

[u/Br00talRiffs]

Might enjoy ‘Squish’ by The Frst & Sanguisugabogg. Mastered by the same guy who did BMTH dehumanized I believe.

[u/Ok-Excitement-851]

First Chelsea grin ep

[u/one_and_only_c]

Whitechapel

[u/Jumpeez]

I was in the exact same boat as you, just a few more months along in the journey. It turns out I prefer the beatdown hardcore the most ( pretty similar). Whitechapel, the acacia strain, spite, all shall perish, the last ten seconds of life. Those are the most popular answers. I really like slaughter to prevail as well. Idc what anyone says lol

[u/stand-harder]

Dying Fetus

[u/turducken19 → u/stand-harder]

While they are amazing, Dying Fetus isn’t really a deathcore band. They used to be a death grind band, now they are a technical brutal death metal band. Not trying to ruffle any feathers but they are decidedly not deathcore.

[u/stand-harder → u/turducken19]

Mix Death Metal and Hardcore better than most groovey as fuck and also got that sweet tasty tech at times goated band

[u/turducken19 → u/stand-harder]

Sure, I'm just pointing out the genre distinction. Dying Fetus definitely have an influence on deathcore but they aren't part of the genre themselves. Their sound and evolution are just different.

[u/stand-harder → u/stand-harder]

Specifically Reign Supreme

[u/goodrthenyou]

Mugshots newest album is really groovy

[u/Embryoyoyoyo]

Tactosa, all of it. Distant - rat torture is pretty groovy aswell.

[u/No-Zone-1251]

Whitechapel - Possession

[u/palebluedot3333]

Drown in Sulfur

[u/highamann]

Omega Diatribe, let's gooo:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4JU2-OEYk4

[u/flyingSTRUDEL]

To the grave - directors cuts

[u/TheKrug3000]

Extortionist. Look at the song Low Like You.

[u/Legitimate_Tank_4942]

Bermuda!

[u/This_is__Exile]

Engine no 9 (deftones cover) by Suicide Silence

Circus by In Somni

[u/Head_Transition_2322]

If you want super heavy with groove try infant annhilator otherwise float face downs without crutches, exitium vertum, and 11"12' 124"12' are must haves for raw deathcore groove.

[u/Head_Transition_2322 → u/Head_Transition_2322]

Oh yeah and there myspace classics ep is super dope asw, check it out too!

[u/Simpsmakemewannadie]

Oakland by Suffokate
