I recently discovered a band from up north of here (Oakland) called ALL SHALL PERISH. I listened to album THE PRICE OF EXISTENCE

I have to say that I'm extremely impressed with this band. I admit I've been a little burned out on the deathcore sound, It seems to have completely saturated the market here in Los Angeles, but after listening to ALL SHALL PERISH for the last few days, I think their musicianship has taken the style to a new level. The guitar work is technical, but at the same time inventive and soulful. The production is perfect, and the songwriting has all of the elements I look for in a metal band; unexpected changes, brutality, dynamics, and most importantly, melody.

It is my opinion, that ALL SHALL PERISH, along with BLACK DAHLIA MURDER are reigning kings of the Deathcore style as far as I've heard. The only other bands I would mention that even comes close are CARNIFEX, GRAVESLUT, and IMPENDING DOOM.

your thoughts?

I know this forum isn't exactly a fan of the deathcore style but I'm curious to hear your imput.

Hate.Malice.Revenge is my favourite of their output. They are pretty impeccable live too.

Good band. Last album was alright, but lacked the intensity of Hate Malice Revenge and the focus of The Price Of Existence. More good tunes than not though.

Great band. I liked the straightforward, no-nonsense brutality of Hate.Malice.Revenge, but still appreciated the leap in maturity and songwriting ability that The Price Of Existence heralded. Still yet to hear their most recent album. I did an interview with them for Ultimate Metal a while back, which you can read here:

Incredible band! price of existence is such a crackin metal album. ok, so it may not be as death as the purists like, and it may be carrying a little to much "core", but as fas as a metal album goes, its pretty fucking well put together.
stear clear of "for the dreamers" though. piss poor major label release...eeew.

For the Dreamers is good as well. A lot more "Metal" than "core" and a wider variety of vocal patterns that is not seen in metal much.

As far as I know the last album was on the same label they've been with since they re'released Hate Malice Revenge - Nuclear Blast. Hardly a paradigm shift in their record label. And it's Awaken The Dreamers.

I would even argue that aside from the breakdowns, there is nothing 'core" about this album at all. its a DEATHMETAL album, straight up. wouldn't you agree?

From what I've heard by them at least, I wasn't particularly impressed.
