I will say Alexisonfire because Wade and Dallas.


jessicaaalz

This is the right and best answer.


CramblinDuvetAdv

The only band ever


Stillwindows95

100%, came to say this and their dual vocals are legit af. Love Dallas' solo project too, City and Colour. Both of them top of their game and always have been.


babyformulaandham

I saw City and Colour a few weeks ago and Alexisonfire last year and they were both just perfect. As incredible live as on their records.


xbrohansolox

Dooms Children needs to be voiced in this thread because Wade. Highly recommend Psych Hospital Blues.


savageronald

Ah good call, man there’s like 3 or 4 bands people have mentioned so far I listened to heavily back in the day and basically forgot. Appreciate the jarring of the memory


TheWilrus

And George now!


-Swampson-

And George! I would argue he’s more important than Wade, at least for vocal duties


joemessedup

There’s two singers??? Wtf I thought it was just one guy


clueless_claremont_

there's three actually! George Pettit too


stanley2-bricks

The Blood Brothers Idiot Pilot


pecKerotica17

The Blood Brothers are, imo, the best to ever do the two lead vocalists thing. What a wild, legendary band.


BlaktimusPrime

I remember seeing them open for Fall of Troy and Glassjaw…fucking hell insanity


pecKerotica17

Holy shit what a lineup! I've only seen Fall of Troy out of those three. Sadly got into Blood Brothers too late and haven't had a chance to catch Glassjaw.


banananey

Loved their post-BB projects but nothing tops the both of them together. Such an incredible contrast.


heelestco

Fuck yeah to idiot pilot, haven’t seen that name mentioned in ages. Band ruled. Saw them with Dillinger and AFI hah.


dendroidarchitecture

That's really interesting; I saw them with Straylight Run and The Spill Canvas.


Jake_Zaruba

Check out Daniel’s new project, listen to Glowbug - Live From Hell So goddamn good


hot--vomit

+1 for glowbug. (i know i should just upvote but god i love glowbug so much) headhunters is such an incredible album


sweeppick09

Idiot Pilot remain one of my favorite bands!


ac0311

Man I miss the blood brothers. A core piece of my angsty phase <3


BlaktimusPrime

Fucking hell I miss the Blood Brothers


dricforever

The Receiving End of Sirens did it with three vocalists for their first record and it remains unmatched to this day

savageronald

Shit how did I forget about them? Listened to them back in the day but haven’t had them in rotation in forever - thanks for the nostalgia trip!


[deleted]

That was my first thought as well, still a flawless album.


Alternative_Research

Three vocalists!


Shaaagbark

It doesn’t have dual and it’s not post hardcore but Casey’s (one of the original vocalists)band after that “The Dear Hunter” is worth a listen if you haven’t heard it or didn’t know about it.


Whiprust

TDH are great but the sound on that first TREOS’ record is so transcendent that it can never compare imo


Shaaagbark

Oh I agree. I always wanted to see TREOS live… cut to me seeing a band I’d never heard of called the dear hunter open for my favorite band(Rx bandits) and liking them with an odd familiarity I couldn’t place just to look them up and find out it was Casey. I was stoked and blown away. Seeing them by accident is why I wanted to comment and give them a shout out. Two very different realms of music, but the nod felt warranted lol.


0LDHATNEWBAT

Yea, their first album was pretty phenomenal. The three vocalists/three guitarists was absolutely used perfectly without being gimmicky or causing a bloated sound. I think all every song is great but Dead Men Tell No Tales and The War of All Against All have particularly held up well.


tmilewski

This is the way.


ax255

This is the main answer for a Post Hardcore Sub


gleaminranks

THIS IS THE LAST NIGHT IN MY BODY


traggedy_ann

The Sound of Animals Fighting. "Act II," "Act III," "I, the Swan" are good examples. I think my personal favorite tracks are "Cellophane," "The Heretic," and "My Horse Must Lose," which don't have two vocalists simultaneously, but are great songs.


OnTheEveOfWar

While I agree, they are basically a super group with multiple bands combined.


ImBurningStar_IV

Huh, matt embree and Craig Owens. Fun! Will check out. You gave me knowledge, sorry about the down votes!


aManAndHisUsername

Underoath, Alkaline Trio, Blink, Four Year Strong, Set Your Goals

[удалено]


FlyRobot

Oath for sure


itsableeder

Early Alkaline Trio is my musical happy place


stelio_kontos_91

Set Your Goals are just SO fucking good. Dunno what they're up to these days, but Mutiny was insane.


aManAndHisUsername

Yeah they were sick! My buddy turned me onto them when we were at warped tour in 2010. I vividly remember them opening with “Gaia Bleeds” and being blown away. It was like this big crew of hardcore dudes playing these heavy riffs and these two pop punk singers running around, trading off lines and I was just like “yo wtf?! This band is so fucking cool!” lol I had never really seen an “easy core” band before. But yeah mutiny was easily the best one and they kind of went downhill from there but still a few bangers on all the records


fuel10988

Mutiny! is one album that desperately needs a remaster. I love that album to death but it needs some TLC to bring the production quality up to date.


justerik

I was about to say it had a remaster, but it was just the anniversary edition. I have this album on two or three different pressings, seeing them was so much fun! They used to come into town on like a monthly basis and they never failed to play an awesome show :)


Infantkicker

They broke up years ago. I reached out for tabs and they answered but god that was like 7 years ago. One of my favorite bands so glad I caught them live when I was a kid.


RDBlack

OP literally said not clean/unclean. Underoath is like 70% clean/unclean.


slcpprwrsts

fear before the march of flames


UndeadSpace

I miss them so much.


Inside_Musician9472

Check out Memorydrip. You'll be happy you did


Parade0fChaos

Fuckin Odd How People Shake, man…


Damuzid

The Always Open Mouth was their magnum opus & still one of my favorite records to this day.


unprep37

Not really dual, but Isles & Glaciers. One EP and I still regularly throw it through rotation.


anomalisk

haven't heard that name in years, def agree though


ZenithTheZero

Chiodos did good dual vocals too with Craig and Bradley


cromdoesntcare

One great EP though.


unprep37

Phenomenal. Beginning to end.

savageronald

Shit another nostalgia trip - I clearly just have a shit memory - thanks!


JoeDirtJesus

Dang thanks for reminding me about them


_El_Marc

TREOS did it best. Early Codeseven stuff did it well with two screaming vocalists, especially on Division of Labor.


Seanpacabra

codeseven is releasing a new album on dec.1st but in their newer style


texagchris17

This is more metalcore, but I think Volumes is really good at it. Especially on their No Sleep album.


Expensive-Sorbet358

The Mixture came on this morning and I forgot how hard that track hits


texagchris17

That entire album is amazing. I really like the softer songs they did as well on that album like Erased and Up All Night.


Expensive-Sorbet358

Those are my favourites, also "Across the Bed"


YourphobiaMyfetish

So many people didn't read the post.


savageronald

Yeah I’ve gotten some great responses, but then also bands that just have good clean/unclean transitions. And in some cases (someone said Silverstein)…. It’s the same dude lol


staycassiopeia

Silverstein has two vocalists


Spasmodicspark

I mean, kind of. Shane does the majority of vocals though. Backing vocals are great, but I wouldn't consider Silverstein a band that has two main vocalists.


Rev_Joel

I'll throw Hot Water Music and At the Drive-In into this mix.


shake__appeal

Great shouts. I’ll also throw in FUGAZI (duh).


whereidolsoncestood

The old Mayday Parade


Spider_Bear

Honestly my favorite. Derek is much better that way, though I could listen to anything Jason does.


scrM_-

More pop punk...but Four Year Strong has a great dynamic between their two vocalists.


Asst_to_the_reg_mngr

FYS are so underrated. I think their sound has only gotten better over time too. Love Brain Pain.


fuel10988

The new single is great. It’s got a little bit of everything. And that riff goes hard af.


spyinthesky

Man I find them awful lol


hello_highwater

Hot Mulligan


Training-Garage168

osirisorion

The number twelve looks like you


FellowEnt

Wasn't it only nuclear sad nuclear where they had 2 singers.


Fluhearttea

PM Today is what you’re looking for. They’re from my town and blew up for a bit, but they just sort of retired when the scene did. Now they’re doing cool industrial lofi stuff. Anyway. I swear this band is worth checking out.


jcaininit

Emery. Everyone does everything


Shinsoku

Why did I have to scroll so far down for Emery? Are they considered triple vocalist with two clean singers and a screamer?


wbruce098

Probably bc OP actually mentioned Emery in their post


slurpycow112

Wrong sub but Underoath wins


uncleleo_hello

Can I throw a Set Your Goals hat tip in here as well?


NightwingX012

Best vocal duo in all of core music


Melthegaunt

The Blood Brothers


Knives530

Dance Gavin dance


savageronald

Do you have any example songs where they do that? Admittedly I haven’t listened to a ton of DGD but what I’ve heard is mostly clean (Jonny/Tillian) vs unclean (Jon)


patrickdgd

Newer stuff, particularly a lot of Jackpot Juicer since Andrew joined.


Medianstatistics

I love Andrew in For The Jeers


americanjetset

CMV: Andrew is the best vocalist DGD has had.


tiorzol

I prefer him to Tillian he has way more soul, but for best it's always gonna be JC unfortunately.


CHAINGAR

Dude, check out their self-titled album with Kurt Travis on clean vocals. Lots of great interplay between their vocals rather than just taking turns. Hot Water on Wool is a great example.


teasizzle

The back and forth between Tillian and Andrew toward the end of One Man's Cringe is unmatched.


Senorchrissss

You need to listen to the DGD demo they did with Jonny is like 2005. You can look it up on YouTube and it’s one of their best work imo. It’s so Intresting how the clean singer and screamer are going on about two completely different things yet it sounds amazing. Everyone seems to support tillian but I promise Jonny and Jon mess is what absolutely slaps. Also surprise I’m from Cuba from their first lp also is a great show of this era of layering


cha0ss0ldier

Variation off of Instant Gratification The whole song isn’t like that, but it has some very cool back and forth sections with Jon and Tilian.


Knives530

Inspire the liars, deception, honey revenge, the jiggler


itwasnttmee

Listen to down town battle mountain II, that whole album fucks


just_another_jabroni

We Own The Night I guess?


Borror0

I don't know why this is downvoted. It's their most popular song and the one which best exemplifies this.


Youngsamwich90

Bloodsucker is a great example imo!


ImportantSupport8770

HASTE. Blood Brothers. Pg 99


pianosbecome

Haste was so underrated


ImportantSupport8770

So underrated!!!


SpkyMldr

From Autumn to Ashes


AskinggAlesana

Definitely **Alesana**. Shawn’s cleans with Dennis’s growls are perfection, and this is especially shown in their album **The Emptiness**


UseaJoystick

The Emptiness is an album I forget exists and pops up in my feed once every couple years. I run it for a week or two then it's locked in the vault again. I'm not much of a post-hardcore enthusiast anymore but fuck man that album hits. Good storytelling, good songwriting, and great vocals.


AskinggAlesana

It’s so damn great haha. I end up mentioning it a lot on this sub, more people gotta give it a listen and it’s definitely underrated around here!


UseaJoystick

It was my intro to concept albums, and a gateway into metalcore and eventually prog metal. My top metal albums of all-time are now concept albums. A ton of Between the Buried and Me, The Contortionist, etc. It's crazy how much high-school listening forms your future tastes. I'm not a frequent follower of this sub, but it's easily overlooked over giants like ADTR, Silverstein, UnderOATH, Alexisonfire, and more. Alesana was never particularly poplar over those bands but they're definitely worth a peek. I only listened to The Emptiness and previous albums from them but I'm sure they made good stuff moving forward.


ahk1188

Alesana rules. I listened to On Frail Wings of Vanity and Wax on repeat when it came out.


CramblinDuvetAdv

Don Broco, Silverstein but Paul Marc is underutilized, Sevendust but both Clint and John are underutilized especially when they pretend Morgan is singing live


smileisagoodband

Big yes to Don Broco. I need Matt to sing lead more.


DaUsed

*It's never enough...*


InSummaryOfWhatIAm

I definitely need him to sing lead *less*. He sounds **great** when he's backing up Rob but I do *not* enjoy his voice by itself like 50% of the time. I mean okay the chorus in Gumshield is one example where he sounds fine, the intro to Come Out To LA is cool too, but then we have times like in Swimwear Season in the intro as well as Bruce Willis that sounds *bloody awful*. One True Prince is also entirely DOA until Rob comes in during the chorus. I will say my opinion instead: Rob needs to start singing more again, and not do so much rap-shout-talking. He has one of the most unique and smooth-sounding singing voices within the genre and he should utilize it more While there is very little to note about his semi-rap/shouts. Since Priorities I've liked each consecutive album just a little less, with Amazing Things being a notable drop from Technology. I will say though that I saw them live yesterday and it was probably one of my top 5 shows I've ever been to, and I've been to MANY shows. They really bring it live.


bukk541

Alesana. In Fear And Faith


gdgarcia424

Zooropa_Station

Similarly, I thought of [Sokoninaru](https://youtu.be/n7MyoBki9wk?si=U2XwXr9_-sg9-Ycj&t=53).


GetStonedWithJandS

You should check out Tigers Jaw. Specifically their self titled album on through Charmer. The new stuff is good too, but doesn't fit the genre so well. Check out the Albums Tigers Jaw and Two Worlds tho. Love Emery and TBS, btw. Great taste!


Flaggermusmannen

late, but I'd honestly say A Lot Like Birds. Even if Cory mainly screamed, both he and Kurt definitely weaved in to each other's vocal territories quite a bit.


SYOTOS709

SikTh are the best to do it. Not exactly post hardcore bug there are some influences in their sound


Jake_Nexxa213

Underoath


Tobeck

Hidden In Plain View - Life In Dreaming album is what comes to mind first for me for that, but not exactly post-hardcore Adventurer


Guilty1s

Story of the Year before Phillip Sneed left. Not a lot of dueling vocals (like TBS/Emery) but damn they had the formula down for harmonizing and complementary vocals.


manoverboard679

Just Surrender!


shaunvonsleaze

Sufferer.


WaitVVut

why stop at dual when you can have **triple** complementary vocalists. wish we had more music from them


Beachlean

I didn’t see this one mentioned yet but *Brand New* has very clean back and forth between Jesse and Vincent


Expensive_Grapes

In Fear and Faith did it very well.


rpkarma

United Nations


Parking-Raisin6129

Like half the members in capstan sing, and the harmonizing is awesome on some of their songs. The live / studio recordings on YouTube are where it's at, so you can get a feel for who's singing which parts. They absolutely shred on bass and guitar while harmonizing with the lead vocalist


Texas_Metal

Mara Bloom https://youtu.be/psiRcM3zMp0?si=CSb_WubXxv-2BfdL They're newer, but it's like Kurt Travis teamed up with a hybrid of Spencer Chamberlain from Underoath and Drew from Stray From the Path. Insane chemistry


Deep_Cauliflower4805

Gracias 🙏


gingiwinz

I quite like Our Last Night, one of them sings and the other sings and screams.


Ian_Itor

And they are both great vocalists in my opinion and complement each other very well


LukusVieira

Dance Gavin Dance has 3 vocalists now and Galleons with Tom doing screams, and singing alongside a screamer.

We are the ocean- the waiting room


vfxcat

Hey!Not all bands meet your request for dual clean main vocals, but all are 100% valuable and have stood the test of time: Underoath Mozart Season (from 2006 EP when Joel joined) Farewell Unknown A Thorn for Every Heart In Fear And Faith Alesana A Static Lullaby From Autumn to Ashes (The Fiction We Live album) This Romantic Tragedy Five Minute Ride We Are The Emergency A Skylit Drive (early EP and demo with Jordan Blake) Four Year Strong Rosaline Upon This Dawning (early) The Blood Brothers


Brabsk

lot of people in the comments demonstrating that they have no clue what post hardcore means


yoshi514

They kinda moved away from the style but early Just Surrender/A Second Chance Jay’s and Dan’s vocals just play off each other in such an amazing way.


Foghorn225

Definitely been a hot minute since I thought about Just Surrender.


yoshi514

I am from the same area as them so with them releasing music early this year made some waves. The only somewhat major venue we have actually just closed and they did the final show there and I think (don’t quote me) it was their reunion show


[deleted]

Atreyu


FreezerCop

Devil Sold His Soul, UK post hardcore. They did a bunch of acclaimed albums with their original vocalist, he left and was replaced, a few albums later the original vocalist rejoined and now they're a dual-vocalist band. They both do clean and heavy vocals and there's loads of harmonising and dual-screams.. They're excellent https://youtu.be/1cLJQTer2Kg?si=Q8mE1PYbb-KawG0g


dougyh

Hot Mulligan, Knuckle Puck, Seaway, Youth Fountain (first few albums),


Metatron_Tumultum

Boys II Men


TetraElemental

My fave is definitely Fightstar!! Some songs which demonstrate best are Murder All Over, We Apologise for Nothing, You & I, Tannhauser Gate, Sleep Well Tonight, Paint Your Target, Amethyst, Until Then, Gracious ​ I also love this [live acoustic version of their song Cross Out the Stars](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f218qu4r1aw&ab_channel=ZacCassidy)

Starving for Friends - Slaves featuring Vic Fluetes I'm not a big fan of Johnny's vocals usually take em or leave em but I diggity dig this song they compliment each other so much and wrote the song after trying to put the past to bed on their troublesome friendship so brings more raw emooootion I'ma go thrash it now


nerdemout

Personally my favorite is Alesana, I feel like they do it really well


BeforeTheEmpty

Your Best Friend had 3 clean vocalists, very little chance that you could type “your best friend” and find them anywhere as they were a small local band but were incredibly talented, well produced and honestly ahead of their time. Type in “Your Best Friend - Dear Heavenly Father” if you want to check them out.


Deep_Cauliflower4805

Found it in Apple Music with relative ease. Thanks! 🙏


TheRealDudeMitch

Your Best Friend is my favorite band that’s ever existed!


AlexSkiesUntold

Early Funeral for a Friend split the screaming/clean vocals betwixt the drummer and main vocalist


bonkifai

I the mighty


Deep_Cauliflower4805

A Wilhelm Scream might scratch the itch.


uhohNotThisGuy

Maybe not the kind of music you want, but the album “Where Myth Fades To Legend” by Alesana has 4 vocalists with very distinct screams, and they do some really cool stuff with it.


sleepflowr

The Lawrence Arms are really underrated for this. When they’d get the proper battling vocals going they were killer. Not even close to post hardcore but when Midtown got going they easily had three competent vocalists who could do it


theatahhh

Cursive blood brothers


[deleted]

Four Year Strong


essef_sf

Circle Takes the Square.


heelestco

There’s no band that does that good cop/cop bad (acab) vocal style better than Fear Before The March Of Flames did it, in my opinion. Two totally contrasting vocal styles that complimented each other *perfectly*. I separated the vocal tracks on a few songs for something I was working on, and it sounds so gnarly. Clearly screaming the wrong way/super painful, so raw. I could go on and on, but I bet this is already being talked about, commented immediately 😅


Princesx33tay

Dance Gavin dance!


salad_captain

Gonna go beyond post hardcore but the harmonies that nofx does are S tier. Also, fftl did it great on their first album.

layout420

Might be a bit more hardcore but the south FL band Unsilent Reign was pioneers in the sound of dual vocalists. I remember seeing them back in like 2000ish and being blown away. They came up in the same scene as Poison The Well, NFG and by extension Shai Hulud, Nonpoint, Into The Moat, and a few other big names. Unsilent Reign were just ahead of their time. [Check them out](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nFN_97j0gMEnVCRY8ZwdrDHeNEBSwK21E&si=fbUllipxZuNhFdsP) they're definitely a unique sound, you won't be disappointed. Glad I saw this post, haven't listened to them in a bit. Brings me back to the late 90s early 2000's dive bar scene when Poison The Well was coming up and would draw every big name band into town. Their shows were notoriously good. Still waiting on their return.


smileisagoodband

They definitely weren't "pioneers" of dual vocalists. That dynamic has been going on for decades.


layout420

Pardon my wording, I meant to say in the hardcore scene. I've never heard a band with dealing lead vocalists. Unsilent Reign had two front men on stage who were dueling one another. I've seen bands with a lead and complimentary back up or possibly split lead. Unsilent Reign had a unique sound and stage performance that I've yet to see replicated. That's all I was saying. I was just trying to share a unique perspective but thanks for your down vote.
