Dying Wish - Symptoms of Survival
96

This is everything I have ever wanted from a Metalcore album and more. Dying Wish hit the bullseye, I was not expecting this to be one of my top albums of the year.

Favorite songs: Lost In The Fall, Torn From Your Silhouette, Watch My Promise Die, Prey For Me.

Spiritbox - The Fear of Fear
92

Incredible EP, Spiritbox has never released a bad track.

Favorite songs : Cellar Door, Angel Eyes

Year Of The Knife - No Love Lost
97

This is easily one of the best albums I have heard this year, and it's only 20 mins long, listen to it RIGHT NOW.

Favorite songs : Sometimes, Mourning the Living, Alice.

Orphan - Manifesto 1.0: Stages of Grief
98

My 2023 album of the year.

Short, sweet, brutal, groovy.

Sidearm - Demo 2023
85

Another day another Demo that gets me extremely hyped for the future of Hardcore.

Elowyn - Chimera
71

I went into this album with 0 expectations and came out pleasantly surprised. This isn't normally the type of music I listen to but there were a few standouts.

Favorite songs : The Curse of Juniper, Clouds in May.

Carnifex - Necromanteum
83

Carnifex really stepped it up since their last few releases, this album was great the whole way through.

Favorite songs : Death's Forgotten Child, Necromanteum, The Pathless Forest.

Death & Exhale - Underground
72

Not a huge fan of cleans in Deathcore, that being said, my two favorite songs on the EP do not have any cleans and are very fun.

Favorite songs : You Will Not Be Missed, Rotten Flesh.

SubRosa - No Help for the Mighty Ones
98

Beautiful and haunting. I tend to not enjoy albums with lots of songs over 6 minutes but this was fantastic.

Bring Me The Horizon - Count Your Blessings
98

So many haters, this is OG Deathcore and it's still in my regular rotation.

Favorite songs : Tell Slater Not to Wash His Dick, A Lot Like Vegas, Black & Blue.

Paleface Swiss - Chapter 1: From the Gallows
68

Production is bad but I've heard worse.

Iwrestledabearonce - Hail Mary
100

Angry Metal Guy is a moron.

Knife Wound - Serrated Steel Demo 23'
84

I like this demo more and more every time I listen to it, I'm excited for their future.

Rabbit - Halo of Flies
84

Not a huge fan of black metal, but, the influences definitely were a positive on this.

SLUG - Continuing Growth
90

Insanely lean yet strong EP that leaves me wanting more.

Angel Du$t - A.D.
95

Their best album imo, they knocked it out of the park with this one.

Conservative Military Image - Casual Violence
88

Without a doubt one of the best Hardcore albums I have ever listened to.
