Best of Deathcore 2021


I love these monstrous chugs! BLEGH!


Number Five: Cognitive – Malevolent Thoughts of a Hastened Extinction


Cognitive are back with a very strong entry for this year! It’s all-around solid and more than capable deathcore!


Number Four: Darko – Darko



Darko—or Darko US if you want to find the band online—is a deathcore superentity, and I’ve got to say the result speaks for itself. Jam this as soon as possible!


Number Three: Crown Magnetar – The Codex of Flesh


The Codex of Flesh is just that good! Bring me these wicked breakdowns all day long!


Number Two: Brojob – The

covereximperitusHailing straight from the country of Belarus, Eximperituserqethhzebibšiptugakkathšulweliarzaxułum gained attention to the public eye with their demo, in 2013, because of their absurdly lengthy and convoluted band name and song titles, but remained in our mind because their music was frankly good. They’re playing some [very] brutal death metal with a touch of tech-death and atmospheric thrown in for good measure. Moreover, behind the name lies hidden a very interesting, occult world and concept.

Cryptic Abuse is a brutal death metal band made by Matt Tluchowski (Unbodied, Karen Page), Alan Cassidy (Unbodied, BDM), Steve Lehocky, and Eliot Bayless.

There isn’t anything new likely to come soon, but a new album is definitely on its way, and coming someday!

While we wait for new music to bless our ears, we can listen to the band’s most recent EP, Smut Jungle, on bandcamp.

And as … Read more
