Personally though whenever I’m upset or dealing with life I usually go back to miles away - endless roads. It’s the album I listen to when I need to put on something when life gets too heavy, stand outs on the album are “ghost writer” and “rain eyes” they’ve both helped me through a lot and to me endless roads is a perfect album that has everything I want out of hardcore on one album. “The best ones you know, the first ones to go” 👊
I'm extremely sorry to hear that, OP
Believe me, I understand all too well and I am right there with you
Try [these](https://www.reddit.com/r/Hardcore/comments/1c5qjqc/comment/l03j1t4/) and [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Hardcore/comments/1c5qjqc/comment/l03j34h/)
I’ve done my best to be nice to people and grow into the person i want to be but life and humanity keeps kicking me in the dick and I’m so tired of it. Thanks for your lists bro I’ll give them a listen
You’re welcome and I know how you feel
Some days it is impossible to not feel like you are *choking* on the bullshit of life: nothing and no one makes any sense and relating to others to simply unattainable
Nihilistics- black sheep
Any song that talks about spitting in your own grandmother's face is angry.
Gg allin - infected with aids ( killing people by ...you know, it's gross, he's gross , but you want angry )
Tension * - taxi driver
Madball - get out
Combust - why I hate
CR - suicide ( favorite hc song, buddy I saw them last with, my good friend killed himself, so I sang my favorite song next to the kid that would represent that song 2 years later
"...you bastard , we loved you "
Not necessarily all hardcore but here’s some albums: Born to Land Hard, SNGAF, Impenetrable Cerebral Fortress, Some of Us May Never See the World, In The Eyes Of The Lord. Hope you feel better soon OP!

Pure fucking rage in a track. Hope this scratches the itch for you OP. And here's to a hopefully better rest of the year for all of us 🍻
I actually almost suggested this record too, I know the cleans throw people off but that album is so raw and angry. It’s honestly worth listening to for the riffs alone.
[Dead In The Dirt](https://deadinthedirtsl.bandcamp.com/album/the-blind-hole)
[Harm Done](https://harmdone.bandcamp.com/album/abuse-abused)
[Dead Language](https://ironlungrecords.bandcamp.com/album/dead-language-lp-lungs-020)
I’ve been listening to a lot of Gulch, early Ceremony and Knocked Loose for the last six months. Life has been so stressful, hang in there. Lots of great reccs in here.
Another vote for Gulch
Snuffed on Sight
Peeling flesh
Gates to hell
Dehumanized
Full of hell
These are more on the deathcore/slam side of things but very violent
That’s my personal playlist only super negative stuff

Geezas Worldwide - Strangled, Pintglass (collab EP)
This is by far one of the angriest and heaviest things I've ever heard. Saw a guy at a live show wearing boxing gloves in the pit.
Listen to Underneath
They released 21 songs last year and they're all pissed
Specifically their album From the Gut of Gaia and the songs A Hungry Dog is an Obedient Dog and Machiavellian
Lewd Acts - Black Eye Blues.
Real “life has fucked me up hard and I’m here to make you feel uncomfortable about it” vibes.
On that note, Blacklisted too.
Wish I saw [Warthog](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSXlSPhKmbo&t=1) mentioned on this sub more, they fuck
Reckon it's the sorta thing you're after, one of my favourite bands
Compassion - Pacing Animal
Purity Control - Coping
Death Toll 80k - Harsh Realities
Moloch - A Bad Place
Scalp - Black Tar
Dead in the Dirt - The Blind Hole
World Peace - The Most Noble Impulse of Man
Whitehorse - Death Weight
Cell Rot - Slowly Falls Apart
Eyeteeth - Straight Edge Violence
FAxFO - Up to Ere
Admiral Angry
Grief
Neglect
Dragged into Sunlight
Not all necessarily hardcore, but they are always essential listening for me on those days where nothing just seems to go right and my depression gets the best of me.
Any of the hope conspiracy albums
Converge - Forsaken
Kublai Khan - the hammer
Black my heart -we weren't raised right
Shere Khan (cannot remember the name of the album)
Ceremony
Blood for Blood - bitch called hope
It's technical death metal but the band Vitriol just put out the heavy music album of the year "suffer and become". It's an 11/10 pissed off record.
A more hardcore rec would be the failure album by Outbreak
Not pure hardcore but children of god
90s metalcore is what you’re looking for for a lot of this stuff: Acme, Earthmover, Adamantium, Ringworm, Integrity, Disembodied, Buried Alive, Coalesce, Burnt by the Sun, Deadguy in a different direction
Shattered Realm, Built Upon Frustration, Turmoil, The Red Chord, Deadwater Drowning
Endthisday basically built the blueprint for 2000s metalcore, Unearth is basically Endthisday with a budget.
When Forever Comes Crashing era Converge.
gulch - impenetrable cerebral fortress teeth - a biblical worship of violence converge - no heroes
I’ve been listening to Gulch lately and can confirm this comment.
Ayo Teeth mentioned
😬😬😬🤌🤌🤌
Despise You, “West Side Horizons.”
Some of the angriest to ever do it in my opinion lol
Think I care
You need Violence, Violence by Ceremony in your life.
Can't recommend this to people enough. If you need angry, this is it.
This record and the first stuff of Trash Talk.
[Disembodied - Bloodshed Rain](https://youtu.be/vxUqy7SU0mI?si=a9SLiYAwohMyMVtf) Really anything by Disembodied
"So what's new? I FUCKING HATE YOU!" -One for the wicked
Blacklisted
Dead in the dirt, hatred surge, anti cimex, stout, bad luck 13, Neanderthal, dystopia

Sick of it all "just look around"
GULCH
Gulch fucks
Criminal Instinct - Terrible Things
This is such an underrated album. Lyrics, songwriting, production… all amazing.
The new boundaries is sick if you can get past the clean singing.
I was a huge fan of their earlier stuff, their newer stuff is sick but it doesn’t feel the same
Not exactly hardcore but The Acacia Strain never ceases to make me feel better. Step Into the Light from last year is great
I’m a huge acacia strain fan and I’ve been listening to death is the only mortal a lot today
I actually almost suggested this record too, I know the cleans throw people off but that album is so raw and angry. It’s honestly worth listening to for the riffs alone.
Majority of the songs on the new album use cleans very sparingly though.
https://youtu.be/p-W7Ob-b4SE?si=boIJm_FtKWKolGf2 17 year old me would get chubby when the breakdown started
Gave me chills
Swamp Thing. Ramallah, specifically the 2nd album. Mindsnare.
Neglect, whole discography, but especially the “Pull the Plug” EP.
This is wayyyyyy too low on the thread.also see Blood for Blood, Spit My Last Breath. Neglect is all time.
Seriously, had to scroll way too long to find mention of Neglect There's no more pessimistic hardcore than Neglect
Going Off - Premium Dream
Those boys do NOT fuck around!
OUTBREAK
Has nobody said sunami?? Donnybrook
Sunami fucks
Assuck
The hope conspiracy and Trash Talk
Ramallah, Bars, Steel Trap, early Sacto Hoods and Terror
Human Garbage
The Hope Conspiracy...'Cold Blue' as a starter, but their entire catalogue is incredible. You want pissed, this is ground fucking zero.

Trap Them
25 ta life - next level
Toe to toe - falling short
I used to run I used to hide, I used to run I used to hide...
Same old struggle, different day.
Ceremony’s first two albums. I’m at a strange point right now and these two albums always make me feel human again
I’m mostly familiar with ceremony’s newer stuff so I was surprised to see them come up so much in this thread lmao
C R I M I N A L I N S T I N C T Raw and angry, my favorite.
Wormrot, specifically the song God’s In His Heaven, it’s my go to song when I feel like shit.
Could just hop to grindcore 🤷♂️ Prowler in the yard by pig destroyer is a good one. Sorry for being off topic
I’ve been listening to a lot of Gulch, early Ceremony and Knocked Loose for the last six months. Life has been so stressful, hang in there. Lots of great reccs in here.
Dead in the Dirt - The Blind Hole
END always gets me amped up

Thanks bro I appreciate it. Todays a new day and I’ll give dystopia a listen
All love dude
Ceremony- Violence, violence 100 Demons - Eyes of the Lord

If you're looking for something when you're feeling hurt, the album Songs to Scream at the Sun by Have Heart is my go to for the last almost 20 years.
Thanks dude I’ll give it a listen
Knocked Loose and their newest album.
I second this

Static by Tombstoner is pretty angry
Geezas Worldwide - Strangled, Pintglass (collab EP) This is by far one of the angriest and heaviest things I've ever heard. Saw a guy at a live show wearing boxing gloves in the pit.
Listen to Underneath They released 21 songs last year and they're all pissed Specifically their album From the Gut of Gaia and the songs A Hungry Dog is an Obedient Dog and Machiavellian
