What killed mathcore? Some of what I look at:
Early mathcore bands like Dillinger Escape Plan, Botch, Converge, Rorschach, Deadguy and Coalesce
Later mathcore bands like Crom-Tech, Orthrelm, and Behold The Arctopus
The arguable peak of mathcore, including bands like Fall Of Troy "FCPREMIX", Chiodos, At The Drive In and Every Time I Die
Current artists like Frontierer, Polyphia, Chon and Belmont

Dillinger, Converge, Botch, Coalesce. Legends and they still hold up.

We need a Mathcore revival. But even more weedly weedly parts. Algebracore!

Poor Greg Puciato didn't get a single mention!! I think he should at least be credited for bringing vocal virtuosity to mathcore and extreme music in general.

I am the guy that got my face split open by Dillinger Escape Plan’s swing mic incident.

The scream drop in "The Mullet Burden" still gets me.

Between the Buried and Me can't really be ignored here. They're typically thought of as being a nerdy prog metal band now but their early stuff was a pure mix of mathcore and deathcore that was pretty popular at the time

A lot of great bands here. Any love for Rolo Tomassi?

Finn: "The amphetamine reptile scene"

Me: German shepherd confused head tilt

11:57 lol "back then" I saw Dillinger for the first time in 2011 and Greg Puciato looked me square in the eyes before kicking me in the face while crowd surfing and I instantly became a fan of the band.

I love this genre, and love Converge, so it's really refreshing that this wasn't a 20 minute Converge circlejerk.

I never really knew much about mathcore, but my first introduction into heavy underground music was Fall of Troy. I was 16, in high-school, picking my brother up from his super ghetto telemarketing job and his chain smoking coworker, who was eating a microwaved frozen burrito was like "dudes, you gotta come out to my car and listen to this band" and really, I think that's how everyone discovers music like that.

@M1nd_Fl4y3r 4 years ago

Lots of young bands still out here doing it really great. Greyhaven, The Callous Daoboys, Ithaca, Employed to Serve, and The Armed are all worth listening to.

Deadguy are criminal underrated. My mom knew I liked band shirts so she bought me two deadguy shirts she found at a goodwill when I was in 3rd grade. Didn’t listen to them many years later but I wish I still had those shirts.

Danza III is a masterpiece.

Frontierer is doing some really interesting stuff. Unloved was one of my favorite albums of 2018.

@delusionalx2605 4 years ago

The Fall of Troy’s Doppelganger was when I realized I had the weedly weedly gene

@Sweat404 4 years ago

Still listening to Dillinger escape plan

@napsisnapping 4 years ago

I would definitely recommend Kaonashi to anyone looking for a new and fresh taste of mathcore with that hardcore flavor, both albums "Why Did You Do It" and "Dear Lemon House, You Ruined Me: Senior Year" are golden and emotional rollercoasters

Dude! Drummer from DestroyerDestroyer here, great vid! That scene was so energized when we were touring in the early 2000s, tons of great kids, great bands really pushing it, and no social media or google maps haha always love your vids great perspective and the empathy comes across. Cheers dude!
