JOURNEY THROUGH GENRES #27: METAL­CORE

Each week, we dive into a different music genre—talking a little about what makes it special and why it matters. I’ll play some songs from that genre, and maybe share why one stands out to me. Then it’s time to hear music from you, the listeners: you can send in your own songs or favorites in that style, and I’ll play a few while we chat about them. At the end, I’ll let you know what genre we’re exploring next time. It’s all about sharing great music and hearing from each other. Tracklist: 1. Misery Signals - Coma 2.
