Another good month for some good tunes: https://t.co/rKcffNFZjC

Here's a nice 1995 - 1997 discography collection from this unsung Baltimore, MD emo trio; with an insane 32-page 10" × 10" zine that includes loads of thorough information: https://t.co/2usWow0VvR

[Aversionline @aversionline]

All over the map this month, in more ways than one. Metalcore, alt-rock that chugs, blackened sludge punk, a rare fit of full-blown noise, progressive tech-death, plus power pop treasures. Explore and enjoy, if all goes well: https://t.co/lPNDoUqGLG

Hey, look, finally catching up on some new-ish tunes worth some words. No two bands alike—melodic death metal and crusty grind, melodic hardcore and screamy '90s-styled greatness, the grungily rockin' and the just plain "rawk." Behold, if time allows: https://t.co/9aCTIGubDn

I've been chasing Struggle Within's material for almost 30 years, and now their discography is finally online. '90s melodic/metallic hardcore with a progressive edge. Very seriously some of the absolute best work I've ever heard from the genre: https://t.co/BBa9flT0ya

Early-'90s Pennsylvania melodic hardcore group Side Over reunited to properly document their past efforts: https://t.co/6bl6S9QnA4

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Wildly progressive and technical death/grind for fans of the classic Willowtip era, with gorgeous packaging in the vein of labels like Hydra Head. An incredibly cool outing here: https://t.co/8tZ8nXFsHQ

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Been sitting on most of this assortment for months. Maybe you'll find something to enjoy: https://t.co/Iee56pvSSL

This week's write-up covers some grungy alternative/indie rock from Philadelphia trio Sun Within: https://t.co/LrYON3pfGe

[Aversionline @aversionline]

A track from this new project featuring members of Bulldoze/Train of Thought/Agents of Man quietly popped up on a compilation recently... https://t.co/rLDpTcvnWS

Don't miss these crucial Cutthroat reissues from Wax Assault Records. Pummeling, groove-centric metalcore fury out of upstate NY: https://t.co/u9RFC4f4U2

[Aversionline @aversionline]

.@prankrec has reissued the 1985 demo from one of Alabama's earliest punk bands, GNP, with extensive packaging that—when mailordered direct—even includes a 10-page 8.5" × 11" zine loaded with liner notes and ephemera. Very cool: https://t.co/e3Ag7pllvm

[Aversionline @aversionline]

In the mood for some gut-churning death metal about the rampant destruction of humanity? Sounds good to me! https://t.co/x4Cx0VfRG9

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Good mix this month, with no two bands falling into the same style. From melodic hardcore to technical "emo" with some edge metal, post-hardcore, crushing sludge, and unique crust in between: https://t.co/qh3DDgY5He

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Despite my love for New Jersey hardcore of the '90s, I had never been exposed to Unanswered—later known as Hope (Delusion)—before. Underrated mid-to-late-'90s metalcore for fans of Rorschach, Converge, etc. https://t.co/Yu0GhaVZnd

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Trying to catch up after weeks of unmotivated burnout. Been sitting on some of these for months. Varieties of crushing metallic hardcore, then some catchy or angular emo/indie, plus some dark post-metal-ish weirdness: https://t.co/AvfnvJ8G5g

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Philly doom metal-infused rockers New Dawn Fades return with an excellent full-length LP—required listening for any fan of this particular corner of the genre: https://t.co/KakhX06QF3

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Guitar/drums duo whitepicketfence crosses genres with their "fuck you to the American Dream." Stylistically you'll pick up on emo/indie, borderline sludgy noise rock, post-rock, and associated realms in between and beyond: https://t.co/hvRf1owS8E

[Aversionline @aversionline]

Today, perhaps explore some great Swedish noise rock with undercurrents of sludgy warmth and mathy quirks: https://t.co/2hxlwVGEWg

[Aversionline @aversionline]

The latest EP from Unreal City presents more dark metallic hardcore mandatory for fans of the classic "holy terror" sound of mid-to-late-'90s Cleveland: https://t.co/FH2fILBr4j
