I'm a huge fan of heavy. Maybe heavier than you are used to. All of those bands that you listed are very mainstream and not very brutal... have you ever heard Born of Osiris, Emmure, The Devil Wears Prada, Haste The Day, or Underoath? Very heavy, very awsome. Well, some of the earlyish Underoath stuff is closer to punk/screamo, but it's all pretty sick stuff.


(Edit)
Lol. Cookie monster. It's called screaming, and it takes a lot of skill, unless you want to lose your voice. I'm in a band with screaming, and I've been learning how. I look at it differently; it's not someone constipated. It protrays emotions. It's desperate, condemning, or highly stressful/authoritive. Give it a chance. I hated it at first, but it's an acquired taste.

I've heard of Decyfer Down but haven't heard them. I'll give them a look. I'm really more of a classic rock person though. I just happened up on the other two from my son which loves all of those Christian metal bands. Which brings to to mind of a few more... Red, Demon Hunter, and Fireflight.

I am one that grew up in the 70's so there is nothing better than Heavy and Classical Rock.

Yeah, I used to play a lot of that on guitar. Especially Haste the Day.



My Dad is sort of the same way. He's really into classic rock but he ended up liking a lot of the same bands I do. In fact, some bands he liked before I did. Decyfer Down is his favorite, and they kind of sound like Red or Disciple so that's why I thought you might like them.

Well, depends what you mean by heavy...

Leslie West?
Bachman Turner Overdrive?

Oh, that's heavy musicians, not heavy music--although some of their stuff qualifies in my mind as heavy.

I like Heavy Metal, Classic Rock, Blues, some '80's Hair Bands, Punk, Alternative, and some New Country. I also like Classical music. I have a very wide varity of music I listen to.

RK

i think there are bands listed already that are way heavier than the devil wears prada and underoath. personally i cant stand these bands, if you want heavy listen to necrophagist, devil driver, exc.

Yeah... Actually, Prada's "Branches..." album seems a bit more brutal to me... But yeah. I can't stand some bands like Necro and DD. They often are very... satanic or unpoetic, or... whatever, it just doesn't sound good at all. I'm more into technical stuff than "let's blow your brains out with our kick drums and drop tunings!", you know? I really like bands like The Human Abstract, with sweeping, breakdowns, etc, instead of monotonous "blah" like with some bands.

i agree that the lyrics arnt great but i love the instrumentals. the dude from necrophagist is amazing!!! give it a chance listen to the song "only ash remains " by necrophagist and the instrumentals will blow you away. but my favorite deathmatel band is children of bodom for sure

im just not into the emo/hardcore/grindcore stuff. i dont like the constant blast beats and open chunks theres gotta be catchy instrumentals.
