Darkest Hour is top-notch American Metalcore. The last album, "Hidden Hands of a Sadist Nation" was recorded in Gothenberg, Sweden.
I've been into a lot of metalcore lately.Originally posted by erwin_rommel

If you dig Darkest Hour, be sure to check out these guys, too:
Lamb of God
Martyr A.D.
Shadows Fall
Killswitch Engage
I especially recommend Lamb of God's most recent album: "As The Palaces Burn" and the song "11th Hour" in particular.
WoW! I feel totally clueless. :nuts:Originally posted by Panzer
Lamb of God is pretty good. I have some of their songs on mp3. Killswitch Engage is also really good. Nice bands to bang your head to and start thrashing around to.
Don't feel clueless. These are bands you don't see on regular MTV or VH1. They are fairly underground although they are well known in Extreme Heavy Metal circles. They are all on large independant labels and they tour worldwide. I think they are all americans, too.Originally posted by hogdriver

I have both the newer albums by KSE and Shadows Fall. I like them both. I have 4 or 5 Cradle discs, too. I like them....as I'm sure everybody says- Dani's voice can become irritating but i like the way the songs are written and i like the smoothed-out, more goth sound they bring to black metal. Don't misunderstand though, I like my black metal to be just as brutal, tr00, kvlt, gr1m and n3cr0 as the next guy.Originally posted by erwin_rommel
I like killswitch engage and shadows fall. Hey have you ever heard of Cradle of Filth?
My CoF faves right now are:Originally posted by erwin_rommel
My favorite C of F songs are Black Metal and The Black Goddess Arises II. I like "Black Metal" because the way he sings, I don't think it's irritating, I think it's awesome. And I like "The Black Goddess Arise II" because I like classical along with metal. And whenever they have him sing, the violin and the female, uh I'm going to say soprano, it just sounds really awesome.
