r/Metalcore

Do you support buying boof/ ripoff merch from Temu/ Shein of bands that are currently inactive ,, or bands that haven’t restocked merch?

I want to buy Alesana merch, but unfortunately they’re not very active. There’s a bunch of cool graphics on Temu/ ebay for like $8.

There’s a few other bands I want to support but am unable to because they don’t have merch.

EDIT: Since everyone here is a major advocate for directly supporting bands and ensuring they are the ones getting money:

Can you explain to me how do I directly support an inactive band from 2008?

How do I directly support a band that hasn’t dropped an album in 15 years?

How do I support a band that has became an archive of the times?

Did you even read my post ??

Daniel Terry from the DFT Dungeon takes a seat at the breakfast table to breakdown the 2004 Zao album; "The Funeral of God." IN TIMES GONE PAST, Daniel would have sung THE LAST SONG FROM ZION. This time, Danger sees THE LESSER LIGHTS OF HEAVEN. Monster joins Daniel to PRAISE THE WAR MACHINE.

"This band belongs to me now."

"Everybody with their tight pants and stud belts doing karate in the middle of the youth room."

"That doesn't sound like something Hillsong would write a song about does it?"

"Zao...the IPA of music?"

"This is the last song from Zion. And Tampa!"

"#notmyzao."

What’s everyone’s favorite Counterparts album? Mine would be a tie between Tragedy Will Find Us or Nothing Left To Love but every one of there albums are amazing though. Hopefully after there Hamilton hometown show in September they’ll start recording for there new album they’ll release in the new year sometime.

Step aside metalcore, Thall has entered the building

Title. It's apparent. It's alive. It is thriving! Thall has officially taken over metalcore. lmao with Currents most recent EP, to Karmamjakah being dubbed "Thallgaze" to LMTF's most recent single.

I'm utterly 100% here for it lmao.

Underoath - Catch Myself Catching Myself

Fantastic album. Sounds like Spencer was in a very dark place making it. DTGL, LITSOS and this album are such outlets for me, as it helps remind me that I'm not the only one who's experienced trudging wearily through uncertain and rugged landscapes in life.

Love UØ!
