    I love Koeler one of the Deathcore og bands that got me into the heavier stuff so much respect and im excited with him coming back in Ameonna, so far my favorite song is Cut Me, Crave Me. The Deathcore scene doesnt feel the same without him he just gets experimental with it and i miss his old style cant wait for him to mix his old style with the modern Deathcore scene 😩

    This is awesome. Chelsea Grin was my gateway into deathcore. I remember hearing about them from so random people just a little older than me when i was walking around a town. I was in middleschool at the time, i think. They saw my Asking Alexandria shirt and said, "You wanna hear some real heavy shit? Check out Chelsea Grin." It was a game changer. They had 2 albums out at the time, i grabbed both of them from my local record store and put them on my iPod nano. Blasted them nonstop. Alex was my idol when it came to wanting to join a deathcore band and do vocals. My band from high school would cover so many songs by CG. He seems like such a cool dude. It's awesome seeing him get sober, too, since when he started sobriety, it was also when i recognized i needed to drop the substance i was using too. Was rough. He seems different these days in how he talks and prevents himself. In a good in healthy way. It's good to see him doing well. Thanks for this one, guys.
