Why Is Converge Better Than Every Metal Band

What's the best metal band (preferably modern ones)?

The Dillinger Escape Plan (disbanded last year) is probably my favorite band in the genre now, they are kind of unique.Converge does very well, the last album had a healthy dose of some other genres mixed in.Meshuggah — well, I don’t really know what to say, they just kick ass.Animals As Leaders are self-explanatory.Baroness has highest play count on whatever device of mine, they write concept albums, they use tricky harmonies staying heavy and dynamic.Revocation — very nice original riffs, it’s obvious that guys are very talented. Again, they are fast and loud, but I just adore their transportations from one key to another, a simple trick everybody seem to have forgotten.Boris from Japan needs to be listened starting with their first EP or whatever, this way one will experience their musical journey. Exceptional.King Woman. Just good groovy riffs, sometimes not so intricate, but always fun to listen.Chelsea Wolf is the best solo artist available for the moment on, her dirty fuzzy overdriven guitar is covered with her “angelic” vocals, it is impossible not to appreciate her last album.Myrkyr is one-person-black metal act, the fragile young woman from Denmark with blond Scandinavian hair records all instruments and writes all music and lyrics herself. Her vocal range goes from that flagship black metal growl to tender lullaby hjgh pitched voice, - good to be a woman :)Agoraphobic Nosebleed are probably the heaviest and the most loud, they finally replaced a drum machine in recording studio with a human drummer who can blast as fast as the sampler. Grindcore at its best and purest.pale are quite recent act, out of any genre, heavy songs that go around ten minutes each, very heavy and yet beautiful melodies.Black Sabbath/Ozzy Osbourne have the best shows with a huge variety of old and new songs, no one can work so honestly on stage. They will always be the best metal songwriters and performers.

Metalheads why don't you like Metalcore and why do consider it Non Metal?

I don't hate Metalcore, I actually like Older Metalcore, I'm just not a fan of it and I don't like the scene image and the scene fanbase.

I consider it Metal, imo Metalcore is a mixture of Extreme Metal and Hardcore Punk but I don't consider Metalcore vocal style Metal vocals I consider it Hardcore vocal style.

I think Metalcore isn't the worst Metal subgenre, I think Metalcore is more Metal than Glam Metal and Nu Metal. I also think that Metalcore would get less hate if the scene image didn't exist.

Why is Converge better than every metal band?

Why is Converge, a metalcore band better than every metal band ever to exist? It is a well known fact that Converge was the greatest band of the last decade, much better songwriters and passionate musicians compared to the socially awkward, overweight, pale skinned, neck beards that are ALL of metal fans. What I am wondering is how did they turn their swag on and maintain their swag for over 20 years while consistently putting out good records when most metal band are afraid to deviate from the formula that is their sub-genre for fear of being not true metal?
