Best Screamo/Death Metal/Metalcore Bands

Amazing guitar and meaningful lyrics

The combination of guitar solos and Breakdowns are just the definition of magnificent

Warlost

They are just brilliant. They just ooze talent in every conceivable way. Unmatched instrumental talent, and Jake Luhrs, the screamer is second only to Mike Hranica of The Devil Wears Prada. The Lyrics are genius and very inspired. Also, they are very very good people. They constantly go out of their way to help others in need, and their organization called Heart Support is something you should all check out.

BEST EVER Saw them at warped tour... Their First CD was AWESOME. GO AA

Asking Alexandria should be number one on this list! :D They're so AMAZING! :D <333

Love them. If you don't like them at first keep listening because I learned to love them.

Listen to; A Candlelit dinner with Inamorta. The final episode

Killswitch Engage is great! Doesn't really matter who their vocalist is (Jesse Leach or Howard Jones). Their songs have awesome lyrics and music. They strike a balance between screaming and melody.

End of my heartache! Awesome song the guitar riffs are awesome jesse leach and howard jones

Killswitch Engage Didn't have any bad songs so why is it the 8th. I think it should be at least 3rd. Or 4th.
Top of the great list is on the album As Daylight Dies.
Then when they redone Holy Diver it was so so so awesome.
so why 8th. I ask you?

Simply great...
Writing on the walls is also awesome... Paper lung... Reinventing your exit... Great piece of work..

YOU MUST! MUUUST LISTEN TO THIS SONGS. AAAAAAAMAZING STUFF.1. ILLUMINATOR 2. MY DETEORATING INCLINE 3. CATCH MY SELF CATCHING MYSELF 4. DRIFTWOOD 5. PAPER LUNG 6. THE CREATED VOID 7. EMERGENCY BROADCASTING 8. IN DIVISION 9. SOMETHING MORE AND 10. DESPERATE TIMES DESPERATE MESURES!

Best band ever!

Can't get any better then Underoath!

This band is nuts why wouldn't they be at the top they're not really screamo but they are still amazing

Best band ever..

Music genius, melodic masterpieces, lyrics inventive, awesome breakdowns, and hardcore-to-the-bones screaming.

They ought to be in the top ten.

Should be in top ten if not #1
perfect blend of vocals and sreaming along with the best quote I have ever heard in my life.
My life for hire
checkout thier new album "What separates me from you"

No-one can deny the awesoemocity of ADTR'S Breakdowns! NO-ONE!

Not some much core, but it's still metal, check first albums for screamo, last for melodic metal, and some awesome chorus.. All in all, after Bullet For My Valentine and ATR, this band is on my list

Best scream of all heavy metal band! they are like the gods of scream. death metal at its best with a tinge of melody yaa

Way too below... Heavily underrated band... Should have easily made its way to the top 5.

They are one of those bands whose live performances are better than the studio versions

Love WCAR! why they down tho? People look em up they'r amazing they really are trust me

Seriously? This band should at least be in the top ten... Best. Band. Ever.

Amazing THEY SHOULD BE NUMBER 1!

Such a great band. Each song has its own individual feel to it. You'll be hooked no matter what song you listen to. Needs to be higher on the list for sure!

This Band honestly needs to be number one. They have amazing vocalists, amazing lyrical content, their music has a good beat, they are amazing live. They have amazing qualities to their music and they need recognition.

Best Screamo Band I have ever Heard, Smokahontas & Sexual Man Chocolate, Best songs of all time, Listen to them! Definitely worth number 1 I can't believe Dead By April aren't up here either! What is this!

Awesome I really love this band! My friend jimmy introduced me to them. They are like one of my favorite screamo bands!

In Flames Changed My Life. THEY ARE THE GREATEST METAL BAND OF ALL TIME! IT KILLS ME TO SEE SLEEPING WITH SiRENS IN FRONT OF THEM. I went to my bathroom tied a noose and tried to Jump but than the rope broke. So I decided to bitch on here. Sleeping with Sirens is equivalent to the back street boys. Anyone who considers them metal is a moron. Simply In Flames Deserves more credit in this world and if you don't think so go DIE>

Y god y aren't they number one
so many bad bands

There talented, and have endless catchy songs with a great lead vocalist. Even if your not into this particular style of music there songs will still get you. Trust me

black dahlia murder they are awesome because their songs have great vocals and guitars. people under rate them. they should definitely be higher up

They have awesome vocals. Both Craig and Brandon are amazing. Their voice so good that they even don't need instrument to back their up. That's my opinion

Chiodos kicks ass even without Craig. Brandon Bolmer is beast.

ButTheNunsAreWatching

simple fact. they kick ass when craig was there anyways

Noorsalah

22?!?! These guys are at least in the top 5! There style of music is incomparable because none of their songs sound the same, and they all kick ass

Beyond coma and despair album' check this out!

What the hell! Why is Escape the fate down here they should be number one if not they should be at lest number two on this list they are AWESOME!
give them a try

ESCAPE THE FATE Is TH3 B3ZT BAND EVER IT SHOULD SO BE AT THE TOP OF THE LIST. :P

Epic girl band... Screamo/metal. Fell in love with them from the first time I heard them, Violent Kiss & Darling = my favourite

Unbelievable vocals and lyrics <3 obsessed with these guys :')

They are really good eve thought they only have one song and most people don't know about them but there line up include the screamer/death growler from The Devil Wears Prada

jakeman3000

This is one screwed up list. Death metal is death metal. Screamo isn't a genre, and metalcore is its own genre. Its like making a list called, best football player/baseball player/atlhlete

Dir En Grey is a really good J-Metal band, the first time I heard their music it made me fall in love. That was the band that got me into metal. I say this band needs to be well know and it needs to be in the top five.

You have to give these guys a chance.
Well, I should say girl.
speaking for myself, I idolize this group. If you havnt heard, look up these songs and you will understand compeltely why you should vote this to be in the top ten. thankyou!
-Between Lions and Men
-Walk The Plank
-Don't Disturb the Witch
-I guess it's curtains for You

TrissyFacee

They are really great and they don't get enough credit give their son 'sarcasm' a listen and you will be hooked! Their album 'Best Kind of Mess' is awesome!

Senses Fail is one if THE best bands ever! Why the hell are they down here? Senses Fail is WAY better than ETF! Enough said

I absolutely LOVE Christofer Drew for his work with Nevershoutnever! But this is just amazing!
