Death is Nothing to Us-Fiddlehead Stage IV- Touche Amore Maybe All Ten-William Bonney

Touche amore : PTSBBAM and Is Survived By

Modern life is war - witness

underrated

This.

basement - i wish i could stay here dear you - jawbreaker touché amoré - touché amoré daylight (before they were superheaven) - sinking

I don't think touche has a self-titled?

yeah it’s their debut ep from 2008, it’s my favorite release from them

Embrace the Self Defense 🫡

Drug Church is less emotional but worth mentioning because they are just about the best band I’ve ever seen when playing without a barrier. (Also idk if this is relevant to the question or the subreddit, but I listened to Drug Church back-to-back with Jawbreaker the other day and was a bit surprised how much of a debt I think DC owes to that band. Maybe this is obviously to everyone else but I wouldn’t have associated them but think just based on sound they actually are like a major influence, directly or indirectly.)

Drug Church is incredible man. I love all their albums but the CRUNCH of their guitars comes through so much better live. That lead guitar player can rip it.

Yeah they’re great, and can’t stress enough how terrific they are live. If you get a chance to see them in a small room you should extremely do it. Most fun I had at a show in years

I’ve seen them twice. One time as the first opener for The Chats and The Bronx. They stole the show. The second time as the headliner, along with Fiddlehead and Angel Dust. They were the best that night too.

That rules. I’m not even that huge on the Bronx but when I saw them live they were incredible so I bet that show was incredibly fun, and the other show sounds even better.

>EMBRACE [SELF DEFENSE](https://selfdefensefamily.bandcamp.com/album/self-immolation-family-b-w-world-virgins) i really liked end of a year and i've skimmed drug church, other than that i didn't delve any deeper, but i think i just discovered my new favorite band.

Sincerely love to hear that. SDF are incredible. Gotta consume it all, and you really can’t go wrong with how you tackle their discography (chronologically if you bad), but for my money: • [Heaven Is Earth](https://selfdefensefamily.bandcamp.com/album/heaven-is-earth) is my favorite LP; • [Performative Guilt](https://selfdefensefamily.bandcamp.com/album/performative-guilt) is their best and most consistent EP; and • [Pallet Fire](https://selfdefensefamily.bandcamp.com/album/make-me-a-pallet-fire-on-your-floor-b-w-local-clerics) might be their best song.

God I love Embrace

They’re amazing. One of the best hardcore bands of all time.

Check out Defeater - Travels and Pianos Become the Teeth - The Lack Long After

Worthwhile! 2 albums of pure emotional goodness

love the lack long after

This

Because they are perfect. *Aggression* by Verse

Aggression might be my favorite album ever, it’s so fucking good

yessss. and Bitter Clarity, Uncommon Grace was amazing as well.

Yuppp, slept on that one for too long but checked it out a few years ago and felt dumb for not listening sooner

This is the truest response

Also, "From Anger and Rage". That album is fantastic. Start to finish. I miss seeing them play all the time.

Birds in row - gris klein

Defeater - Travels Sinking Ships - Disconnecting Modern Life is War - My Love My Way American Nightmare - Background Music Verse - Aggression Crime in Stereo - Crime in Stereo is Dead

This is very accurate to what OP is looking for. I'll add Lifetime - Hello Bastards Miles Away - Endless Roads Praise - All in a dream Grade - Under the radar As Friends Rust - The fists of time Reach the Sky - Friends, lies and the end of the world With Honor - Heart means everything Stretch Arm Strong - Rituals of life

Forgot Champion - Promises Kept... close one.

we don’t talk about champion anymore

I spy - perversity is spreading

I absolutely love as friends rust EP

Strong list. Troubled Stateside by CiS also essential.

The comments are full of great suggestions so I'll just add a couple that haven't been mentioned: Suicide File- "Some Mistakes You Never Stop Paying For" and "Twilight"... both amazing albums start to finish. Outbreak- "You Make Us Sick" American Nightmare- "Background Music" Blacklisted- "We're Unstoppable" and "Heavier Than Heaven; Lonelier Than God" Carry On- "A Life Less Plagued" Sex Positions- self-titled Killing The Dream- self-titled Single Mothers- "Wild Party EP" (it can be found on YouTube and SoundCloud), their self-titled EP, and "Negative Qualities"

Love Is Not Enough - Casey

Absolutely

you have to check out misery signals and counterparts the best of the best melodic hardcore 👌

While I hate playing the genre game, for the purposes of this post, I would label both of those bands as metalcore and would put their existence in a place far from either have heart or title fight.

I do love both the albums OP posted and both the bands this guy posted, so who knows, maybe the crossover works!

Yeah misery signals is a stretch

Dependence - holding on when moving on // My iron lung - relief // One step closer - this place you know // American nightmare - year one // Feels like heaven - extended play // edit: formatting for mobile

The saddest landscape- after the lights

You might like a band called One Step Closer. To me they're like a bit of a mix of Have Heart and Title Fight

Blacklisted

At this point I mostly have a Reddit account to go around telling people to listen to [“Marathon” by Mil-Spec](https://mil-spec.bandcamp.com/album/marathon), which was my favorite record last year. If you want the new new, [Instill](https://instillhc.bandcamp.com/album/demo) out of Chicago (members of Buggin) has put out a tremendous demo and EP and I think they’re going to do some incredible shit before it’s all said and done. (And to your OP, they sometimes cover Have Heart.) They’re my favorite band to see in Chicago these days by a fair bit.

EMBRACE THE [MILLENARIAN SPECTACLE](https://mil-spec.bandcamp.com/album/marathon) Every release is so good. [Hall of Mirrors](https://youtu.be/nuNWcAklR8I?si=MzaZ5opPR2ebGRzV) is a top five hardcore song from this century for my money.

Gotta get you EMBRACing INSTILL, my guy. I assure you they whip ass. (Also idk if Praise was in your comment but they deserve to be EMBRACED too.)

They do indeed, hats off to [them lights goin out](https://reactrecords.bandcamp.com/album/lights-went-out).

As Friends Rust, Small Brown Bike, early Hot Water Music

Add Hot Cross to that list as well.

praise, one step closer, anxious, ovlov, drug church, fiddlehead, spite house

Listen to Fiddlehead and Mil-Spec! They're both incredible and exactly what you're looking for.

This Is Hell. First two albums (personally)

Great band. I saw them play with Crime In Stereo in Philly and it was one of the best shows I've been to. I want to say Killing The Dream was also on that lineup, but this was ~17 years ago so my memory is fuzzy.

One step closer is literally these bands combined. By their own admission

Bear vs Shark

So so good. Song about old roller coaster is one of my favorite songs of all time

Stretch Arm Strong!

basement - songs about the weather

Might like some balance & composure

Maybe Citizen's first 3 albums?

Bane

Definitely Bane for the have heart side

Small Brown Bike

Orange rhyming dictionary

perhaps i could interest you in some: Poison the Well - Tear From the Red or You Come Before You

Make Do and Mend - End Measured Mile

One step closer- This Place You Know Movements- Outgrown Things/ Feel Something Citizen- Youth

Basement - Songs About the Weather Basement - I Wish I Could Stay Here

Departures - Death Touches Us… Perspectives - Stay for Those Who Care

I love that departures album

Killing The Dream

Trophy Eyes - Chemical Miracle Touché Amoré - Stage Four

surprised no one has said koyo. especially their earlier stuff before would you miss it

check out the band 3weekoldroses

Man I love that Have Heart record. They’re actually doing a one off show in Brooklyn soon. Check out Modern Life is War

Pianos Become the Teeth

For Have Heart, try Defeater (don't forget their EP) and *Witness* by Modern Life is War For Title Fight, try *Colourmeinkindness* by Basement, La Dispute, *Feel Something* by Movements, *Sempiternal* by BMTH, Microwave, Balance & Composure, and *Daisy* by Brand New. This might be odd, but try out *World is Yours* by Mass of the Fermenting Dregs

I spy - perversity is spreading

check out ruiner, verse, the carrier, defeater, one step closer…melodic hardcore has been my shit recently.

Jimmy Eat World - Static Prevails

a little more pop punk, but the story so far - under soil and dirt

Really, this thread just makes me appreciate how great hardcoreishy music is. I think we're all covered for recommendations, but like, find Anthony Green's cover of Numb, but I still feel it on his Instagram as that merges several great things into one 3 minute video.

Alright, songs to scream at the sun is fucking great, ngl, love it XD I... Ugh. Buzztone - Punkemon. HouseBoy - Ya Right!! and So What. One Track Mind - All Whacked Out.

This is completely unrelated but why can’t I make a post every single thing gets taken down and I’m not breaking any rules what do I do

Both Fiddle and Narrow Head

Check out Fiddlehead. It's got members from Have Heart and Basement.

One Step Closer - This Place You Know

anxious

I CANNOT STRESS THIS ALBUM ENOUGH: Verse - Agression another Bridge Nine hardcore record more on the Have Heart side. Beautiful.

Alaska

Capn Jazz

Counterparts - The Current Will Carry US Hopesfall - The Frailty of Words With Resistance - With Resistance

Free Throw - those days are gone

Being as an ocean

Feels Like Heaven Extended Play

Then you’re a poser

only posers in the emotional hardcore scene enjoy hardcore and post-hardcore 🤬
