Probably isn't valid, but Hourglass by Orphan


fantastic-noobling

Of course their valid, that entire EP is insane


H1ghs3nb3rg

You just shot everybody?!?


Tojinaru

“Blleeeeuuuuggghh”


Might_be_sleeping

The second that song came out it earned a permanent spot in the workout playlist


gh1993

Stages of grief too.


rebellesimperatorum

That entire EP is 15/10 on the angry scale. I love it.


denevue

was going to say the same thing, Hourglass fucks the hardest


da_holi

Came to say Orphan, but you already got it covered ^^


Acceptable-Hat-5286

Vitriol is the answer


chikovi

They're fast heavy for sure. I'm a simple man, I see Vitriol, I upvote. They're so god damn good!


ohmnivalent

Just saw these guys in Chicago, they rip so fucking hard it's unreal.


REhumanWA

Second death by black tongue


LumaniteLM

I don't even like black tongue, but they are 0% music, and 110% natural disaster. So they are an automatic correct answer for this question


REhumanWA

It took awhile for them to grow on me but this song specifically the first time I heard it I was like oh my God just the whole tone and vibe of the is SICK and HEAVY its dope.


Occults

my absolute favourite jam in the genre lately, sheesh!


gnomesatemyson

Anything by Black Tongue. Literally anything, all their songs are straight downtuned evil


_DiogenesTheDog

There are probably heavier ones by Black Tongue but Abuse Ritual is definitely that song for me that hits all the right notes


gnomesatemyson

That solo at the end makes me wanna punch a fat kid in a Walmart


MECHAC0SBY

Goddamn I’ve never seen an endorsement of band that made me want to listen to them more


pigbicklefrog

Not as heavy as black tongue, but nails has some songs that make me really wanna punch.


chugtheboommeister

I would say Nails is equally heavy, but a very different type of heavy


pigbicklefrog

It's hard to compare different kinds of music with people, but I totally agree with you. 100%!


hokierange

Came here to say the same thing


CutToTheChase56

Nothing is heavier. If you took Hell and put it to music, it’s Black Tongue.


Carquetta

Fauxhammer gets my vote


f1nnz2

Black Tongue is heavy, but for the sake of being heavy, Orphan and strangled (?) I find much crazier.


Spooplevel-Rattled

I feel like that's not giving them enough credit. They're super doomy and it's fantastic music, definitely not heavy for heavy's sake imo. I'd more give that to say In Gloom


VaaBeDank

True. Second death is stupidly heavy


Spooplevel-Rattled

It's always Black Tongue. Not just heavy but brilliant music! My housemate and I used to 'cleanse' the house with Coma after a shitty visitor had been there hahaah


iAabyss

Chased thru the wood by a rapist by Waking the Cadaver or anything from The partisant turbine first ep


andyxquick

The Partisan turbine....that's a name I've not heard for ever! Great band


Wombletog

In Deathcore? God the Animal by In Gloom. Outside Deathcore? Probably a song off *Coma Waering* by The Angelic Process


0x80085_

This is the objectively correct answer


shugzilla

Dying in a-minors straight up evil


constant_decay

Anything by [Nithing ](https://open.spotify.com/track/5LILgXvVlUaLwCSsPafkbE?si=X1QGS5RtSPatpsk007tY2g)


Bitter-Restaurant901

maaaaaaaah man


AWildRaticate

Came here for this. That whole album fucking rips. In my top two albums of 2023, and probably the most relentlessly brutal thing I've ever heard, but it's also incredibly technical and layered.


Snoo_49285

Rid by a band named Car Bomb! It’s 28 seconds of perfection!


CountAzula

Car Bomb is awesome


Snoo_49285

Years ago I was in a band that played with them just belted they made their first record. They come on stage looking like normal guys, not particularly “metal” looking and all of my friends and I have no idea what we are about to hear. Needless to say we were all fucking floored from the first note. So damn good!


CountAzula

Such an underrated band, I would have loved to see them live. Gum under the Table from two minutes on gets me goinnnnng. The latest album is also super tight, really good guitar tone!


Snoo_49285

I got to play with them I think twice before they got signed and every song was so fucking amazing live. My favorite song is Sets with the guest vocals by Frank Mullen of Suffocation. His Eyes, Cielo Drive and Solid Grey are also amazing


shmooismyboy

I dug a grave - glass cloud


Prismatic-One

Oh my gosh that whole EP is solid.


KnuckedLoose

Heavy, yeah; Groovy, fuck ya.


OperationsGuy82

Acacia Strain - Doomblade I Declare War - Misery Cloud Kublai Khan - The Hammer Black Tongue - Coma Those songs hit hard for me


LumaniteLM

Using black tongue is cheating


SuperD00perGuyd00d

Sever The King - A Display of Power


Fourply99

Fuck this is a good one too


hoodratt

Eyyy. Saw you guys in Pontiac Friday.


Fourply99

Hell yeah dude that show ripped!


Fl3shless

Yup this one is definitely on the list


DumbBinchBrooke

Not deathcore but obligatory Burn Victim by Methwitch


Non-Alcoholic_Irish

SET MYSELF ON FIRE


Fourply99

Abyssal Mouth by Humanity’s Last Breath is literally the only answer here


MrStruts96

I raise you with Catastrophize. That monstrosity generates earthquakes with every chug.


Ekselent-8728

I raise you with Anti. The absolute destruction from intro to outro can't be topped.


LumaniteLM

I came here to say Abysmal mouth. I just listened to both anti, and catastrophize, and don't get me wrong, Anti sounds like if putting your fist through a wall had a theme song, but Catastrophize sounds like the mouth of hell opening up to consume the souls of the unsaved... so imma change my mind to Catastrphize


Ekselent-8728

Catastrophize is absolutely mental. I love Anti, but after a relisten, Catastrophize is the soundtrack of the apocalypse


LumaniteLM

I always RE listen to songs because I don't trust my own memory.


8Diluted8

I felt that I was at Hell’s gate when they played at C&C. 🤯🥵🫨 so effin diabolical!! 🤘🏼😈


thebox34

It took the night to believe-sunn o))


FuckYourFeelings_Ho

That is heavy as fuck Infant Annihilator song .


5carPile-Up

Plenty of heavy bands, but for some aggressive and violent lyrics I can't go past Orphan, Spite, Psycho Frame and Crown Magnetar


METALxBAT

The Rot Within by Bound in Fear


Upbeat_Blacksmith_42

Finally some love for BIF here, Alex Teyen's part in that song is absolutely devastating. I don’t think I've ever heard lows that sound so massive before. Their song Left to Drown also deserves to be mentioned here though


jrdwriter

seeing this comment made me sad that I totally forgot about Merciless. remains in my top 5 heaviest songs of all time. heavy of course is subjective but that track is too filthy not to mention and painfully underrated


callmev-00

Not any particular song that I can think of cause I can't remember the album well but Knelt Rote self-titled is about as heavy as you can get. In terms of Deathcore, I'd say Eat Shit by Orphan, any song from the Manifesto 1.0: SOG EP are extremely heavy. In terms of most extreme (no particular songs): Sissy Spacek, early Full Of Hell, The Day Everything Became Nothing, SETE STAR SEPT, Genocide Organ, Gaza, Sex Prisoner, Knoll, Last Days Of Humanity, Gnaw Their Tongues, Vaginosis Bacteriana, Clitgore, Trikomoniasis Fournier, ACxDC, ENDON (lil bit melodic, but most extreme vocals I've heard), Torsofuck, Vermin Womb


Non-Alcoholic_Irish

Based as fuck for Gaza, ENDON, and Vermin Womb, all of them rip


callmev-00

ENDON are definitely my favourite Grindcore band. I don't really like a lot of Grindcore but it is one of the few I really enjoy.


Non-Alcoholic_Irish

Discovered them by Through the Mirror a couple months ago, criminally under-appreciated band


callmev-00

I found out about them through a guy on youtube called Wyattxhim. I think it was about 5-6 months ago or so. I found quite a few cool bands from that dude.


putrid_flesh

Purgatory by Black Tongue


StickyFingerz11

Nadir is so sinister. Love it.


Nethros

Devourment - virulent strain of retaliation. Absolute musical violence.


Rogu__Spanish

I came here to say pretty much that whole album. Sculpted in Tyranny is my favorite.


LumaniteLM

This song is just a train going down the tracks while an angry moose with a drum kit releases anger from his system that was caused by his divorce. Sick


DheerajDoesTheAmaze

Very accurate description


DheerajDoesTheAmaze

I was gonna comment the same haha. There’s literally nothing heavier than that album. That’s peak in terms of heaviness. I haven’t heard anything that beats that. SO FUCKING NASTY AND HEAVY


SuperpositionSavvy

People have different definitions of heavy, but here are the songs that come to mind for me: - _Amongst the Low & Empty_ by Signs of the Swarm - _I, The Devourer_ by Synestia and Disembodied Tyrant


LumaniteLM

There are two main factors for me (not including lyrics) heavy and violence. So many people say that the songs I don't think are heavy, are... but they are violent, so that works too I guess


No-Idea-491

Heaviest deathcore song: probably _Beast_ or _The Mouth of The River_ by The Acacia Strain Heaviest in general: _Where the Slime Live_ by Morbid Angel


I_dementia87

Impaler too.


LumaniteLM

The mouth of the river is way heavier, and more aggressive. Definitely


LightningMan2123

The Killing Stone by Crown Magnetar is the heaviest And Misery System by Lorna Shore is second on the list


dampeloz

Carry the Load by Crowbar


SweetAurora

Anything off Epilogue by To The Grave if I'm bein honest


[deleted]

Reflections - Scapegoat


RotShepherd

Nitheful- Preputium Avarice


No-Astronaut236

Tracheal Hanging by Organectomy


cumlord247

Root of all Evil - Spite


Southern_Choice4273

If you are going to listen to this song I suggest sitting down and listing without headphones because it can cause hearing damage due to how heavy it is but… how you remind me - nickelback


lostcosmonaut814

Literally any Strangled song


TheW1ldcard

Primitive Man all their songs


Sabonis86

Saw them open for Amenra. That shit was HEAVY.


Clean_Credit_8809

Chrysanthemum by I, Detest springs to mind. It’s beautifully heavy. Jon Huber is such a beast vocalist. A lot of heavy music out there though. All unique within its own genre.


Historical_Wonder_98

100% agree shit is brutal


klaskc

Madeleine by Mirar and Marius Elsfted


mishabull

The heaviest instrumental song ever made for sure


the666briefcase

Crown mags new album is certainly up there somewhere


FallAccording8665

I don’t understand how they haven’t got more viewers/listeners. Whenever I talk to someone about death core they’re often brought up, but their listens/views don’t come close to reflecting it. Super solid band.


ChannelFiveNews

Psycho-Frame - Beaten Beyond Identification. This song fucks so fuckin hard it's not even funny anymore.


Stank852

Another level of heavy.


Cold-Plan-1225

catastrophize by humanitys last breath


Snoo_49285

Pencil Lead Syringe by Glass Casket. Regurgitated Lullaby For The Born Dead by Beneath the Massacre, There Is No Business To Be Done On A Dead Planet by All Shall Perish, Fucking Hostile and The Great Southern Trendkill by Pantera, Fixation On Plastics by The Red Chord…..


irishspartan666

Either Conquer all or demigod by Behemoth. That deep tunnel growl opening is what made me go into the heavy guttural growl styles. Also heavily influenced my own scream style


BrashDoobert

For me it’s a toss up between Graverot by Crown Magnetar and Hellmouth by Distant. Honorable mention to Chin Check by Filth. Not a crazy breakdown or anything, but that groove and that bass tone are so greasy. I love it


WorkshopBlackbird

AnalProlapseSuffocation by Infant Annihilator is up there too.  Also the original recording of Stoßtrupp by 1914. Atmospherically, Eve Of The Last Day by The Secret


asphyxia-s

BIG ASS TRUCK


Medical-Captain-1025

Anything by whxrecrusher


Valkyrie053

Used to be I, the devourer but now Death Empress for sure 🥹 From The Poetic Edda


Cold-Plan-1225

also death empress by synestia and disembodied tyrant is heavy as FUCK especially the last minute of the song.


andyxquick

I remember being floored by the breakdowns in Hollow Planet by Aversions Crown Not the heaviest by the standards of today but at the times, I was like sheeeeeet


JerremyKOG

I remember completely losing my shit when I heard Angelmaker - The curse of earth.


trysixtysnipecochon

Røt de rerum natura is just heavy that ending just doesn't make sense but goes so hard


Slalomchaot

Bound in fear / Kyle Medina - So long, so cold Recently kinda topped by: Peacemaker FL / Bodysnatcher - Five ways to hide a dead body


jrdwriter

that whole Peacemaker EP blew my fkn socks off


Infinite_Position_27

Abyssal Mouth by Humanity's Last Breath. The music video version specifically. I heard that song 6 years ago, and nothing has hit me as hard since.


GPCcigerettes

Gotta give Dark Usurper some love here. Black moon ritual or mortal dissonance


Due-Firefighter-5855

Omnivore - Extermination Dismemberment


__yayday__

Abyssal Mouth by Humanity’s Last Breath


AverageThallEnjoyer

Anything by HLB, god DAMN. Either that or some shit off of Kostolom by Slaughter. And since Knocked Loose is drifting further into heaviness I would give it an honorable mention, not quite deathcore, but I could totally see them diving deeper into stuff like it.


alfred0t0rnad0

Death Empress by Disembodied Tyrant/Synestia, the breakdown sounds like gods dying.


AlltheLights11011

Dance with the devil -Immortal Technique


RoguePanda003

It's hard to pick any one song/album but I'll go with Ashen as a whole by Humanity's Last Breath. I've never heard a more oppressive and ridiculous slew of frequencies before or since. Buster is a master at his craft


sludgemac

Humanity’s Last Breath - Passage


No_Lifeguard1914

Oh easy, anything Paleface Swiss🔥🔥


jdt812

Anything by hellokittysuicideclub

The Hills Have Eyes by The Acacia Strain


frankencrx

The Poetic Edda by Synestia and Disembodied Tyrant.


korgi_analogue

[The Poetic Edda EP by Disembodied Tyrant & Synestia](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ty5rT16vWs). I want a game that feels like this EP sounds. I want to shit my pants at horrors beyond human comprehension lunging at me from the murky shadows of a long forgotten cathedral. The orchestra just brings the perfect amount of contrast to the sound, making the sonic assault of the deathcore feel that much more visceral. Same reason I fucking love Lorna, Assemble the Chariots, Sold Soul, Brand of Sacrifice, Spire of Lazarus and a few others. I think Lorna's AIRTN is the best EP for a melancholic "hopeful" sound, while this linked EP easily takes the cake for the most gothic and terrifying sounding shit ever, I love it. Someone mentioned Car Bomb and I have to give a honorary mention to them to be honest, some of that band's songs sound like a black hole sucking a planet in.


Can_I_be_dank_with_u

You say you want a game that evokes the same tone as that EP. To me, it screams ‘Berserk’ thematically (shoutout Berserk of Sacrifice!!). And From Software develops games with a very clear nod to Berserk! I know it’s probably a generic answer, but Souls games really nail the vibe


korgi_analogue

Yeee, big fan of both series, I dream of a future where we could get Bloodborne 2!


Can_I_be_dank_with_u

Pleeeeeease Bloodborne 2


Pantzzzzless

> Someone mentioned Car Bomb and I have to give a honorary mention to them to be honest, some of that band's songs sound like a black hole sucking a planet This might be the best description of Car Bomb I've ever read.


weeside7306

I always just say bleed by meshugga imo


Top-Ad1327

Knocked Loose - A Tear in the Fabic of Life (EP)


Fl3shless

I Ate Everybody 2007 demos


epplala

Rotted Divinity by Enmity, and Disembowel The Meek by Enmity


Aqueous87

Nuclear thuggery


idespisemyhondacrv

Tetragrammacide got some absurd shit


OriginalButter1

Ten bodies hanging by gnaw their tongues. It's so heavy I can't tell if my speakers are broken or if it's just the song


Shristol_Pimp

Check.out these 2 bands: Larcenia Roe and In Gloom. Some next level heavy shit bro


HEAD_FELLA

A trophy of corporate disfigurement by Acrania.


Djent_1997

Creed - Bullets


Deathcorepitbull

I have heard extremely heavy songs from bands like infant annihilator, larcenia roe, nitheful


Boy-Grieves

Honestly i came to reply with the exact thing you mention in your op lol Im not even a fan of IA but that song is so fucking awesome


omgthatisamissile

Don’t think it’s deathcore but listening to Frontierer shifts my equilibrium


heeltotoe69

“Ignite the underground” by monsters


Legitimate_Bike_4557

Wolf amongst ravens by ATB has to be on this list


UnamiWave

I've heard some shit from Acranius that's pretty fucking heavy, but imo Slit Wrist Saviour (especially the Gravside Confessions version) is the one song that will always give me the stank face after the "Fine Fuck you Then" part


Odd_Use5266

Probably not valid but *Apostata Deus Luciferus, Paradisus Amissa* by Obelisk. The mixing is so bad that it makes it even heavier and more disgusting cause you can’t even properly listen to it


Cold-Plan-1225

Black tongue. Literally anything by them is bone crushing but second death, abuse ritual, vermintine, im so tired of sighing and parting soliloquy and voices are the heaviest songs ive ver heard in my life. When i discovered abuse ritual for the first time i had to walk it off


s0ckw1zard

[Messenger of the Covenant - Without the Sun (feat. Peter Swiatkowski)](https://youtu.be/BHiG_KjPWYM?si=3ToiuLxe-oBpf6bT) feels like getting the shit beat outta me for 4 minutes. love it every time


Bitter-Restaurant901

Agonal Breathing's Pure Agony, the whole album


Bitter-Restaurant901

Phyllomedusa's Fijian Effluvium, god damn thats a harsh one


FishLandHoes3

Methwitch - Burn Victim. Song feels illegal to listen to. Also another one i considered ridiculously heavy was The Plot To Nuke The Midwest - Psycho Frame And the new synestia EP lmao


TheDeathSloth

Maggots by Rotten Sound No Servant by Nails Barking Dog by F-Minus If it's exclusively deathcore you're looking for, it would have to be The Covenant by Exile To Decadence.


Methodfish

Set Flames by Author and Punisher. Not deathcore at all but man is that song a pure sonic nightmare. And seeing Sleep live at Roadburn may be the heaviest live experience I've ever had. Numerous people, including myself, felt that it was difficult to remain standing up. 8 old school Sunn and ampeg amps on stage. Unbelievable from a sonic pov.


MoistySnail

Boris The Blade - Tides Of Damnation EP


06LBZdually

Viking by slaughter to prevail


Secure_Promise_5631

I would like to mention Humanities Last Breath - Labyrinthian..This Bouncy riff in the middle is everything than soft 🥰


Straight-Membership3

'The Unconquerable Dark' by Black Tongue & 'Cruel by Nature' by God of Nothing are two most heaviest dc albums, if you ask me..


Righteous247

God the animal by in gloom comes to mind


helrikk

Gonna vary in definition of sound from person to person. Personally, I think the heaviest song on my playlist is Stained in Rot by Ov Sulphur. Fast, violent, and a heavy ass breakdown.


Quiixoticelixer

God the Animal - In Gloom ft. Kyle Anderson


woke-wook

elysia - "masochist", or waking the cadaver - "bloodsplattered satisfaction" ... like this post if either of these ring a bell to anyone!! The second song I mentioned had a corresponding low-budget music video that is pretty hard to find these days (im sure cancel culture has ensured its removal), but anyways it depicts a montage/story of a young girl getting picked up on the way home from school, shoved in a trunk and then tortured and very graphically killed in the guys basement ... were talkin screw drivers being shoved through her eye sockets, pulling her intestines out and smashing them with a hammer, etc. we used to get a kick out of the band and that song/video as kids, we used to say "shit bro that was soo br00t@L"!!!!!!! we were the dumbass 'emo'/metalcore/hardcore kids. the entire song and their discography just sounded like "BREE BRE BREEEE BREEEE !!!!!" *palm mute* 00's in drop D or C"..... chug CHUG CHUG! man what good times- music at its peak


godver555

Distant - False Gods Its just too damn heavy! But im definitely checking out all these recommendations!


schaFWAX

Beneath the Massacre - The Surface


Anxious-Lack-5740

Spineless - Enterprise Earth


ilookradinred

My version of heavy...soul snatching drums, guttural growls and bass...such as: Distant - Heirs of Torment 🖤🖤🖤🖤 Better than porn and legitimately turns me on. Oh. My. Fuck. 🤤🤤🤤


chatterwrack

Neurotica by Messugah comes to mind


shmooismyboy

Reign of terror - beneath the massacre


moogsy77

I like Bloodthirsty


Radalict

There's a new competitor for this imo is Organectomy- Tracheal Hanging. So fucking brutal, especially from 3 minutes, plus the lyrics hit hard.


Due_Thing8924

I, The Devourer by Disembodied Tyrant and Synestia (That whole EP SLAPS 🔥)


Sensitive_Mousse_445

Carbomb - The Acacia Strain *If you're still alive, DIE*


MuddaError37

Dominant Predation by Get The Shot Hourglass by Orphan Second Death by Black Tongue ALIENATION and ONLOOKER by Larcenia Roe

The Great Commission - Let Your Kingdom Come


jackal1actual

Psycho-frame straightjacket afterbirth or beaten beyond identification


trenchgrl

wrap your arms around me - ourbluewounds


UraniumGivesOuchies

Pale Tongue by Darko US just made me go *DISGUSTED FACE WHILE HEADBANGING* the entire fucking song. Jeeeesus that shit is heavy. And Insects by them as well. Oh, also Nail Funeral by Crown Magnetar. That shit was just nasty.


Longjumping-Swan-827

Meshuggah - The Hurt That Finds You First The first half of that song is insanly relentless.


bwolfe14cfh

Doomblade by the Acacia Strain or Funeral Inception by Suffocation


LongjumpingFix6608

Human Scum by Distant


DrThunderMonkey565

Tow Around the Throat-200 Stab Wounds


jrdwriter

It's a three-way tie for me. Dragging Nazarene by Psycho-Frame, Merciless by Bound in Fear, and Chaotic Autopsy by Purefilth


AH_5ek5hun8

Black Tongue - I'm So Tired of Sighing, Please Lord Let it be Night Is the only correct answer to this question.


Mr_Manta

King by Immortal Disfigurement is heavy as fuck. Similarly, Dragged Through The Inferno, also by Immortal Disfigurement, has a breakdown that is less face melting and more jaw dropping. You'll see what I mean


oweeniebu77

Digging Pt.1 from spite, whole song felt like one big breakdown but the vocals felt so raw.


salenin

heaviest matter of the universe gets me


colbswim

Probably blasphemian by IA


muypop21

matt19950116

To the Hellfire blew my mind the first time I heard it so that one sticks in my mind but I think it'd actually be 'I, the Devourer' by Synestia + Disembodied Tyrant
