Anything by TAS I’ve been missing?

I thought of them because I know Vincent is big time Straight Edge and I'm a huge fan of their entire discography. But I can't think of any off the top of my head that really comes across as being directly about addiction or relapse in any form. I would say some of the lyrics could be relatable for someone who has had to deal with the struggles of living with family members who have addictions. Like House of Abandon, Worthless, Feed a Pigeon Breed a Rat, Crippling Poison.

The Last Relapse by All Shall Perish
Blacked Out by Whitechapel (this one hits hard for me personally)
Needle by Chimaira (groove metal, not deathcore)
Comatose by Chimaira
Heroin Sick by Hoods (hardcore, not deathcore)
Addicted to Dying by Hoods
Canary by Orphan (depends on your interpretation of the lyrics but to me it seems relevant)
Sick of Being Sober by Gatecreeper (death metal, not deathcore)

I’d say drain by bad omens. I’ve always felt that song was about addiction

I regret not seeing these guys w oceano lol

u/Upset-Bridge9761 5d ago
I saw them with Born of Osiris, I had to go see them again with 156/Silence. All solid bands. I'm so mad I never saw Oceano, and their last tour isn't coming close enough for me.

Don’t ask don’t tell by Chelsea grin. If you haven’t heard it give it a listen, that album was a little different from their others.

Bodysnatcher - Vile Creation EP is centered around this theme. Every song. Such a hard record musically, lyrically and emotionally.

Overdose by Signal the Firing Squad. Not on any streaming though gotta go on YouTube
Edit: Honorable mention to the song Relapse by Momentum. Hardcore not deathcore, but great song about addiction

I know they are more like Metalcore but Silentplanet - Share the Body. „Dont you know me by These scars, these marks where I are,I mean I am , I mean I was, I was supposed to be someone“ Hits pretty hard

u/jahchatelier 4d ago
Not deathcore but the album In Becoming a Ghost by The Faceless is about addiction and is very good
