AS I LAY DYING Vocalist Says Metalcore Fad Is Fading
- Aug. 10, 2005
|
|
AS I LAY DYING vocalist Tim Lambesis recently told the Great Falls Tribune that the sub-genre of metalcore is nearing its expiration. "I think metal core is a trend right now and so it's easy to write a metal core record," Lambesis said. "I think it's pretty much at its peak right now. It'll get a little bigger this summer. Sounds of the Underground is going out. Ozzfest is going out. Those are both big tours that feature a lot of metal core bands. Those will, I think, bring it to its peak and then from there, it'll be up to each band individually to survive the trend." Lambesis hopes fans see AS I LAY DYING's new album, "Shadows Are Security", more as a classic metal album than just another metalcore production. "I think a timeless metal record is one that has very precise guitar work," Lambesis said. "Very fast and energetic drumming. It doesn't have a token breakdown for the sake of having a token breakdown. Every part of the song makes sense as an actual part of a song and not just a breakdown or a dance part for kids to mosh to." In addition to his vocal duties and songwriting responsibilities, Lambesis also produces the AS I LAY DYING records and has branched out to produce records for other bands, most recently, SWORN ENEMY. "I really enjoy producing our stuff and I really think that people who've heard the new record really like the production of it," he said. "The producer has the overall vision. A lot of bands write great individual parts, but when it comes to putting songs together, the producer makes them do actual songs. It's pretty easy when you listen to a lot of metal CDs to hear great riffs and great individual parts, but very few metal bands actually make great songs."

Hahaha, he wants us to think of the new As I Lay Dying as a "classic metal" album. Sorry dumbass, but you're living in a dreamworld if you honestly think that's what your new album sounds like. You sound just like every other metalcore band out there right now.
Hopefully in a couple years this idiotic metalcore phase will die down (much like nu-metal finally has!) and these trendy kids will move on to kill some other sub-genre.

Ozzfest isn't all that metalcore this year. Killswitch, Mastadon, Arch Enemy, Soilwork, The Haunted, In Flames, Shadows Fall, Maiden...none of them even approach the metalcore genre.
Of course I've always advocated stopping the stereotypes of any music. I hate that metal is divided into all of these sub-genres and that people argue over what band fits into what category...really, it's just stupid. There are two genres for me: bands I like and bands I don't like.

Um KINDA NO! Mastodon is defined as classic metalcore. HAHA you think killswitch engage isnt metalcore? HAAHA. Yea, metal has breakdowns of chugs and stop to sing whiny love poetry with pussy vocals. The haunted have many tinges of metalcore. Shadows Fall defined metalcore. Know your music next time you post.

For all you losers bashing bands, how many tours have YOU been on? Do I like 'as i lay dying' ??...nah not that much, but they're out there doing their thing....what the fuck have you done with your life?

what a joke. basically he says everything a classic metal album should have is exactly what his horrid band DOESN'T. i will give him credit for finally opening his eyes and realizing that this metalcore bullshit is just a trend. no as i lay dying cd will EVER be seen as a classic metal album.
"...but very few metal bands actually make great songs."
and you're sure as shit not one of them. stop making shitty music.

...I'm not really familiar with this whole Metalcore thing (we haven't quite got there in New Zealand yet, thank fuck). What exactly do they mean when they refer to a "breakdown"? I'm guessing it's not a breakdown as I understand the definition. If one of you good people would be so kind as to clue me in, that'd be great...

AILD as metalcore. I was really confused with Metal Blade Records said that they were a Death Metal band. I don't think that they have ever tried to come off as death metal. Still, I don't think that they have written any memorable metal records. Now I do think that 'Beneath the encasing of Ashes" was a great metalcore record. They were also metalcore before it was popular to metalcore. I saw these guys at a show 3 years ago. Finally, I would like to say that metalcore sure beats rap and emo!

IntoThePit, I was probably into metal before you were even born. Did you start with Iron Butterfly, Sabbath, and Priest when they were first coming out? I doubt it. I've been listening to metal for 25+ years so I'd like to think I know a thing or two.
As I said in my post before, categorizing and putting metal into sub-genres isn't really my thing. However, for the purpose of this article, I don't believe any of the bands I listed fit into the "metalcore" genre.
If you believe they do that's your opinion but there's no need to insult my intelligence just because you don't agree with me.

If he believes that the fad is already fading, then there is something seriously wrong us. The nu-metal thread lasted longer than this.

If metalcore dies, what the hell are you guys gonna bash?
Get off your fucking petistals people. You guys bash like you could write a better song than any of these guys. It's fast, heavy, and very easy to headbang to. what the hell else do you want for god's sake? You walk around with this arrogance about all of yourselves like you're fucking better than metalcore. it's heavy music. period. Maybe you should try to be a little more open minded before blindly slamming bands based off of one band's single you saw on headbanger's ball, or Uranium. Listen before bashing, pussies. Maybe it's not the best stuff in the world, but I would rather open my mind to what the younger guys are doing for heavy music today than living in the past for the rest of my life. I have nothing but love for classic metal, but if the younger crowd is giving us "metalcore", than by god, long as I can bang my fucking head, I'll take it.

Metal is metal...wehter it has breakdowns or not. To me it's all the same. As I lay Dying has shredding guitars and excellent drumming. To me that's Metal...I bet many of you idiots haven't even heard the CD and are bashing it because it's "metalcore". And as somebody posted above...what have you morons done for the metal community?? I bet the AILD guys beat the crap out of you nobodies in their respective instruments. Because one thing that you can't accuse them off is not being able to play (like Nu-Metal)...they're just "metalcore"....that's just so stupid.

I can't stand how you can add 'core' to any word and it's automatically a new genre of music. but hey...at least one of the bigger names in metalcore is admiting their demise. haha..but hey, I chose metalcore over numetal anyday. I mean he's kinda right...some bands do have what it takes to survive when metalcore goes down, we'll just have to see in a few years.

Trend or not, it doesn't appear to me that "metal core" is dying. Look at album sales... Avenged Sevenfold, As I Lay Dying, Killswitch Engage, Atreyu, & Shadows Fall have all had albums debut in the top 40 in the last year and a half. I also expect Chimaira will make the sixth band to do so next week. It looks to me like it's only getting started. When Unearth and Mastodon put out their next albums they will sell alot as well.

i mean what the fuck dude, explain to me how mastodon sounds anything like today is the day. just because you read in some review that the mastodon guys played with today is the today doesn't mean we need you gaying up this site with your attempts at impressing everybody. you obviously have never heard either of these bands.
oh, and the reason these bands are all labeled metalcore is because 90% of them sound the same. the sound was cool and interesting when it was going on like, 5 years ago, but people are tired of it now. every 16 year old who gets a guitar for christmas is doing this stuff.
the sooner this stuff is over the sooner i can start going to shows again. this shit is a plague that has infested every local show i go to.

a musician that sees the same view as me on this.
btw, Mastodon is NOT a metalcore band. if you classify them as such, you're a moron! how in the hell are they metalcore? if anything, i'd put them under a prog-metal category. they're like Tool with balls (not to bash Tool. love that band.) just because they've gotten big at the same time as all of these metalcore bands doesn't make them as such. Mastodon has more elements in common with a band like Isis or Neurosis (mainly in use of atmosphere and vocal phrasing) than a band like Shadows Fall or KSE or As I Lay Dying. Mastodon are just a heavier version of a band like Isis or Neurosis.

All you fucking people who are like "Metalcore rules, nu-metal sucks" sound like fucking idiots. They are both like the same damn thing. You little kids are just following the trends now of dissing nu-metal and calling metalcore true metal. bullshit. Mostly all metalcore bands are just really bad metal bands who cant write good metal so they have to throw in their poppy choruses to sound catchy. Fuck Trivium!! Fuck Atreyu!! I hate these fucking bands that think if they play a couple of solos they are real metal. Get the fuck out of here with your bullshit music. Man, I would take the first 2 Korn albums, any Deftones cd, the first Coal Chamber cd over any of that garbage. I dont care what you people say about the musicianship. Korns first 2 albums are better and heavier than anything Killswitch Engage will ever release. And that goes for any other metalcore band for that matter.

Deth has a very good point! Good music is just good music. Who cares what you label it as long as it sounds good. Just because I have the screen name Kannibal Korpse doesn't mean that I only listen to death metal, grindcore or whatever. But some people don't realize that! People just want to label music or somebody with what a name says. It used to be an anti- fashionable statement to say fuck death metal or fuck emo or whatever. But now I see it as being very fashionable and trendy to say shit like that. If you don't like death metal or metal-core or what not. Fine! That's your preference. it doesn't mean it's everyone elses to.

As much as I hate the term nu-metal i will say that I thought nu-metal was bad but it was just the tip of the iceberg. Explain to me how metalcore got its fucking name? If anything, it should be called Emocore. It's all so fucking gay. There is a slight difference between what was called nu-metal and what emocore is......nu-metal had no solos plain and simple while emocore is trying to compensate for its lack of originality by throwing a solo here and there and having unbearably gay vocals, just their attempt to draw heavy music fans and emo fans at the same time....most nu-metal was bad but this shit is 10 times worse.

"Your comments are fuckin' ignorant. Mastadon is simply a Today is the Day ripoff. All the little fuckin' metalcore bands are emo bands whdo have shifted gears into heavier music. Metalcore is the most false metal thing on this fuckin' planet. Go back to emo you fuckin' cock smokin' pansies. Breakdowns???? WTF are you talking about...that goes way beyond metal and back to jazz orientation. Breakdowns are just an excuse for all the little emo wiggers to bounce up and down to. I saw the Sounds of the Underground, and I saw a few bands that played guitar solos. Pathetic. High On Fire, Opeth, Gwar, Lambo of God. The rest of those fuckin' retarded bands simply ran around stage doing emo moves and playing there retarded fuckin' songs."
that was ignorant. if anybody has a problem with breakdowns in metal(not that anyone does) or thinks anything thats not completely metal is pussy emo shit listen to winds of plague thats all im saying o and breakdowns did originat in hardcore or hardcore punk in the 80's sure music before had "breakdowns" but this us a different definition of breakdown

I find the whole "metalcore" fad similar to the "hair band" fad in the 80's. The metalcore guys are riding the coat tails of the Death Metal founders (Death, Obituary, Morbid Angel, etc) similarly to the 80's hair bands riding the coat tails of bands such as Judas Priest and Maiden. The founders blaze the trail and do all the work while they guys just ease on in with little dues payed. This fad will run its course like most and will eventualy be replaced by some other fad. Personally I see metalcore more like "Fratcore" since most of these guys look and sound like they are spoiled rich kids pretending to have had a bad childhood or something. They look like spoiled frat guys to me.

Lots of posts with lots of whining and bitching. What the fuck is 'mallcore' anyway? That's a pretty stupid name. Is it another name for metalcore? The people who come up with all of these names are probably the same people who come up with 'Bennifer', and 'Tomkat' and 'Bradelina'. That shit is so gay. Metal is metal. If it's good, it's good.

Hell, I can admit to being an idiot. Just last night, I rented "The Grudge", thinking it might be a half-decent movie... boy, was I wrong. I now have an irrepressible urge to kill Sarah Michelle Gellar and everyone who looks like her.
Mmm... Beer... c(_)

sub-labels suck more. if you like it great, if you don't that's cool. it's not like any of you guys owe any other person a fucking explanation as to why you like what you do.

must say bout everyone in here knows nothing. nothing wrong with metalcore, you bitches just think all the new music should sound like the old stuff or you won't like it. well listen up, i dont like listening to the same genre of metal, the lyrics, the singing, the speed of the song, just shut the fuck up and listen to what you listen and let others listen to what they want to. jesus fucking christ people, have a little variety in you're metal, stop bitching 24/7 becuz you dont like a band making it you don't like the genre...god

Whats wrong with being white trash. I always thought of metal as a music primarily made by white trash. Not that its a bad thing. Im white trash. Ill admit it. What Im saying is would you rather have your metal played by rich yuppie frat boys. Didnt think so. Metal to me is the music for fucked up white people. Im not being racist i just think it speaks to that group of people the most. Think about it. Most Death Metal, Black Metal, Thrash bands have trashy white people in them. Considering on what your definition of trashy is. All im saying is im white trash and there aint nothing to be ashamed of. But I do hate wiggers

,but labels are made for a reason. How many of you would like for all metal to be called just metal? Most of us would miss out on bands that we enjoy. There are too many bands, too many styles for it to be labeled under one category. Just like in life, categories/stereotypes are created for a reason. Sure, the boundaries can be blurred sometimes, but that just means those bands are being innovative.
