Conducting From The Grave is fucking amazing.

I just don’t like their lead singers vocals too much. His highs / normal growling voice is really annoying. His lows however are amazing.

I agree, this band is amazing and so is their one and only record.

Conducting from the grave are fucking awesome. The Broadcast the nightmare debut is pretty promising, they just have to replace every shitty, half baked clean part with a fuckin ripper solo like the one on shepard’s prayer. That would be a monster sophomore album

My sister is getting drum lessons from the drummer of Black Autumn.
i couldn’t believe it when he said his band would play at NEMHF.

You passed on Black Teeth! You should see these guys in person they kick ass and don’t sound like every other band out there.

COnudcting actually has meaningful riffage and not pure riff salad which is why it is a worthwhile listen

Soldiers owns. One of the few bands playing on the 3rd stage that I actually look forward to seeing.

Fuck Brother Von Doom and Conducting From the Grave. Stop giving credit where credit isn’t due these bands just rehash out the same shit over and over again. Ex: Thrash,Thrash,Thrash, Stupid tappy part, FUCKING BREAKDOWN!!!!!!!!!!, sweepy,sweepy, epic riff to end the song. Give credit to something more original and honest at least (EX: Stray From the Path). I will leave you with something that you will probably will be drooling over in about a week or two the headline will read “OMG! Check this out you have heard it before and it’s pretty fucking gay but whatever there are breakdowns and awesome growls FUCK YEAH!!!!” http://www.myspace.com/chelseagrinmetal

Since when does being a nice group of kids qualify any band for a re-listen?

Hmm must say i disagree with you on This or the Apocalypse.They remind me a lot of Misery Signals and August Burns Red.I advise you give them another spin, you’ll be happy you did.

Within the Ruins, while deathcore, has tons of catchy and technical riffage. They’re pretty good, don’t bash them too much.

Yeah, like Adam, Polska and KG said Conducting are some unholy almagamation of With Passion and a new frontman. Conducting was first but they ended up splitting up when their vocalist Drew went off to start a different band, so With Passion was formed (and signed, wow, they actually made it into that horrible Earache Car Combat videogame). Anyway, With Passion split and Conducting came back with a new frontman, they sound so much better now than they did on their old demos. The new cd fucking crushes and you need to check them out, they’re some of the nicest dudes I’ve had the pleasure to meet.

We Were Gentlemen’s vocalist was in the now defunct Winter Solstice, the hardcore band that had one and only album on Metal Blade before splitting for no reason.

Wow, NEMHF sure knows how to ruin a good thing. I appreciated the commentary almost as much as I enjoyed listening to all of these bands. I definitely recommend re-listening to stray from the path though, really nice kids who’ve seriously busted their asses, it doesn’t hurt that they’re one of the few chaotic bands left that does a good job still.

Haha! Are you fucking serious Broadcast the Nightmare is playing?! I just saw them Saturday night they are HORRIBLE! One of the lamest bands I’ve seen in a long time. For Today was even better than they were and that’s not a compliment.

Conducting from the grave and with passion were around at the same time but some members went to with passion, conducting disbanded and more members went to with passion all except the original conducting singer. They found a new bassist in with passion when the original left that band disbanded and formed the new conducting. They are the best on this venue. Within the ruins also tear it the fuck apart but will be labeled as metalcore cause they sorta are…

Pretty sure Broadcast the Nightmare is a solid band. They sound like they’d be cool live.

Nothing groundbreaking or spectacular, but alright.

EDIT: EWWW CLEAN VOCALS JUST CAME ON– BOO CUT THOSE OUT!!

I’m pretty sure Conducting disbanded and then formed With Passion, and then With Passion disbanded and now we have Conducting From The Grave again. Not too important, but all this member re-shuffling left them sounding a bit different. A bit less good. But good nonetheless. Check out Trials of the Forsaken EP.
