What's everybody's favorites of the year? I'm off and want to check some stuff out today, think I've only heard Vein, Gouge Away, Sectioned and Candy

 

Here's my top 5, in no particular order except for the first one:

True Love - The Pact (top 1),
American Nightmare - S/T,
Candy - Good To Life,
Blind Justice - No Matter the Cost,
Trail of Lies - W.A.R.

Honorable mentions: the new Regulate LP, Mil-Spec's latest 7", Ecostrike - Voice of Strength 7".

I dig the Gouge Away record but I need to give it a few more listens. I can't stand Vein at all, that band feels too gimmicky for me, I don't know how to say it... I wish I could understand the hype.

 

Gouge Away
True Love
Krimewatch
Hirs Collective
Ecostrike

 

American Nightmare
Vein
Jesus Piece
Turnstile

 

Love the Vein and JP album, but they're metalcore to me

 

Harms Way
Vein
Turnstile
Gouge Away
Candy
Jesus Piece

Mindforce LP is gonna be up there. Hoping for LPs from King Nine, Initiate, and Judiciary

 

not as out of the loop as I thought apparently, goooooood

 

I mean I’m not particularly in the loop either haha but I feel like most bands dropped EPs

 

OH I think Queensway recorded recently, I want new shit from them

 

Vein
Turnstile
Candy
HIRS
Cult Leader (not out yet but based on what I’ve heard it’ll be up there)

I respect and enjoy bands like Harms Way and Jesus Piece but that style of hardcore does nothing for me.

 

JP is one of the few bands in that style that I do enjoy

 

American Nightmare.

 

Jesus Piece
Vein
True Love
Turnstile

Not like these haven't been mentioned. Haven't listened to or Gouge Away enough.

Primal Rite is pretty sick if you're into more thrash metal kinda stuff.

 

True Love reminds me too much of bro stuff I liked in high school

big up Krimewatch and Hirs tho

 

Candy
Red Death (technically 2017, but LP pre-orders weren't until this year so fuck it)
Tragedy
Backslider
Turnstile
Vein

 

Slipknot, Fall Out Boy, Hatebreed, Etc. Members Step Up To Help Harm's Way Following Trailer Theft | Theprp.com

Dope.

 

Forgot about the Line of Sight EP, I know some others here were into it.

I know there's a load of others I'm forgetting

 

I wonder when Ceremony will release a new album. And I wonder what it’ll sound like.

 

Not like the old Ceremony.

 

Love Candy, Jesus Piece, etc, but here's some great stuff I haven't seen mentioned.

Mouthbreather - Dollmeat
Point of Contact - Undefeated
Creeping Death - Specter of War
Vile Mentality - Demo
For Pete's Sake - North Atlantic

That Dead Heat promo shreds too, best Leeway worship I've heard in a minute. When's that Mindforce supposed to drop?

 

Another one I really liked

 

Drops in November

 

Candy just destroyed and they were the first of 5 bands.

 

So dumb to not put that band higher up on a bill at the moment.

 

Agreed, but to be fair, the bill is pretty staked. Year of the Knife played right after and killed too. Backtrack, Harms Way and Terror still to come.
