New Sound Album
 Carnifex (Music) / int_22093e9b
comment
New Sound Album: Several: Hell Chose Me introduced the blackened death metal elements that would later come to define their sound and was overall more technical and less slammy and breakdown-oriented than their first two albums. Die Without Hope further expanded upon the blackened death elements and introduced guitar solos courtesy of newcomer Jordan Lockrey, as well as adding more prominent symphonic elements. Graveside Confessions is something of a return to Until I Feel Nothing stylistically, with the blackened and symphonic elements somewhat downplayed and some noticeable nu metal elements creeping in.

comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: Their demos and first two albums were far more brutal death and slam-oriented and had none of the blackened death elements that defines their modern work.

Deathcore: Trope Codifier for the black metal-tinged variant of it on Hell Chose Me, though they took a more symphonic turn on Die Without Hope. As of the 2010s, they are, along with Thy Art Is Murder and Oceano, the face of the genre thanks to Suicide Silence's disastrous self-titled, Whitechapel's steady move towards groove and nu metal and generally fading relevance with younger audiences, Despised Icon's part-time touring status, and All Shall Perish's lengthy period of inactivity due to legal battles with Mike Tiner all more or less taking them out of the game.

Audience Participation Song: Several: "Lie to My Face": "WHAT THE FUCK!?" and, later, the song's title in the final breakdown. "Hell Chose Me": "I didn't choose hell... HELL! CHOSE! ME!" "Drown Me in Blood": People typically shout the song's title in the breakdown in the final third of the song.

Brutal Death Metal: Dead in My Arms leans quite a bit towards this. Blackened Death Metal: Has elements of this, most notably on Until I Feel Nothing.

Ascended Extra: Jordan Lockrey was a longtime friend of the band who once filled in for Ryan Gudmunds on a Canadian run (as Gudmunds was not allowed in the country at the time) and was the most logical choice when the band reunited and Gudmunds wasn't feeling it.
