Converge have 5 LPs that to me are murder music.
And yeah, Ballou has a pretty distinct production style. I can guess it's his work 9/10 times but I think it stinks 10/10 times.

Find any forty-something year old guy in any random city who currently plays in a death metal band and there is an almost absolute certainty that he played in a hardcore band with angular odd time signature dissonant riffs in 1997 and toured with Cave In or something.

Respect to Converge for being a band this long and not having a member having an embarrassing social media o-count, but it’s not my thing in the slightest.
I saw that Jacob Bannons “death metal” band is opening for Hope Con in a few months, which means I can go grab dinner after New Lows plays.

Why would anyone want a hardcore band to "push the genre forward"? The beauty is in its simplicity.
Converge sucks so does their "art"🖕

Heavy music doesn't need pushed forward anymore. Do the formula and make it rip. That's all we want. Leave the art bullshit at college.

I will always re-iterate, Hardcore kids suck ass at writing music that isn't in the the HC bubble. I don't want to hear your shitty half-assed genre blending, I don't want to hear you crappy indie pop band.

It's a good formula!!! They tried altering it in the 2000's and no one cares about those bands anymore.

There’s room for “experimentation” or whatever in hardcore but if it’s transparently obviously that that’s what you’re trying to do, it will probably suck and age poorly.

Experiment by saying “fuck it up” before the mosh part instead of “fuck you”

Does it ever occur to you that other people disagree with you for reasons other than “trying to appear cool”? Also Converge is doodoo but Jane Doe came out after they’d been a band for 10 years. If you think converge is doodoo you have to reevaluate your music taste because they done more for metal and hardcore than any trash can basement dwelling band that breaks up in 2 months you ever listened to. Board was so good, then you came back.

It’s regurgitated garbage that was done better in the 80s by bands that laid the foundation. I appreciate bands that don’t follow a rule book that appeals to entitled self righteous degenerates.

All bands follow a rulebook and the best ones are self-aware about it, whether its the Ramones or Steely Dan lol

We need more bands ripping off Hatebreed and less Converge clones.
