No problem ... try some Extol as well. I'll check out the bands that you post, and then we have a common basis to argue about.

Now you can go f**k yuor self.

You seem to know more about Hardcore than me ... why don't you answer my questions for a change and tell me if you would call Dillinger a Hardcore band? Or give me a list of other Hardocre bands to check out ... Hardcore is not a genre that I can google for. I need help.

 



I can't download Dillinger now, but when I will, I'll tell you. I will make a list of some HC band and I'll post to you. Just be my friend.

I think that is a generalisation.  Some HC bands (much like prog) have incredible musicians and the tone of the music is not about how loud they can get it, but more about the crafting of the tunes - Dillinger Escape Plan, for example - I'm not a huge fan of them, but I appreciate what they're doing and definitely how they are doing it.

Listening to A Morte Das Linguas right now ... it sucks. The Mars Volta does it a million times better. Boring song structures, the vocals are repetitive just not musical, extremely poor production, the guitar work is dull, and the whole thing is just not tight.

Listen to Extol:

They do everything better than Madame Germen.

Sorry if I sound a little harsh, but that's my honest opinion. Feel free to bash Extol any way you want ...

There are many prog metal bands better than HC, That's not my question. I asked for bands better than some prog metal bands (exp. Kamelot, Nightwish, Rhapsody, Therion, ...)


mate kamelot (us power metal), nightwish (symphonic pop/metal wannabes), rhapsody( the biggest joke ever) and therion( only theli is prog and maybe vovin, although i prefer vovin than theli) are not progressive metal.

Therion suck ... Kamelot rule. But I agree that all of those bands are not prog metal in the usual definition of the genre. In my book however, there exist such genres like Progressive Power Metal (Kamelot). But the "heart" of prog metal is what I like to call Symphonic Progressive Metal: Pain of Salvation, Heaven's Cry, Psychotic Waltz, Threshold, Ayreon etc. I indeed doubt that ANY hardcore band could possibly rival the musicanship and artistic level of those bands.
