Converge

• Genre: Metalcore

About

One of the most brutal and widely imitated bands around, Converge's absolutely crushing Metalcore obliterates everything in its path and never, ever lets up. Blood-curdling screams barely rise above lightning-fast, ear-killing guitars and ton-o-bricks drums. And unlike so many of their ilk, the band's lyrics stand out as particularly powerful. Their uncompromising aggression hits you in the midsection with such frequency and raging force as to prevent you from ever taking a breath.
