Lol, yes I like all 3 of those. Pandora found them for me. Along w trivium and parkway drive, lol. I do love the artificial harmonics too. Sounds like their guitars are shrieking. Love that palm mute to AH transition, that kinda defines it as metal core for me. Periphery is so much better w/o the vocals. They do every one of their songs as an instrumental also. Sickly talented group of guys... But I dont do that high pitched emo sound, lol.You listen to Nevermore bro?
If not, ... not? Lol
Also, Necrophagist. Makes lamb of god seem like barney has a play date with Dora. Dude sings and plays swept arpeggios. Insane.
I keep going back to children of bodom, mostly the older stuff. The melodies are amazing and man can laiho write some catchy hooks
