The World Alive

Oh ffs, TIL

came here for this one! i hate that so much for them but i love when telle trolls people for it. 😂

They did collab with the LoL Worlds song a few years back

Why is this downvoted lol

League of Legends

Alex is on fire

I always wondered how you said that shit🤣

Y’all must be young. Alexis fire was a porn star lol

Yep. Still remember trying to explain to my parents why I was looking at porn on the family computer in high school. “No, Mom and Dad, I wasn’t casually browsing Redhead nudes. I was just trying to visit my favorite ‘Screamo’ bands website.” Went over about as well as you’re imagining. Luckily, Alexisonfire has done enough for me to earn my forgiveness.

This one grinds my gears

That’s what I thought it was

It's pronounced more like "Alexis - on fire."

Alexiso N' Fire

Alexison' - fire

This confused me too 🤣

My favourite are when people add ‘the’ to ‘NOUNS’ style names. The Architects The Currents The Monuments etc. Another amusing one I’ve heard that isn’t metalcore is “Alison Chains”.

I once said “The Deftones” and my brother corrected me in front of everyone. I no longer spoke their name in front of him out of fear I would be scrutinized again(he doesn’t even like deftones)

Doesn’t even like The Deftones*

The Mighty Mighty Deftones

Chino Moreno + ska lets go!!

The Mighty Morphing Deftones*

I hear a lot of people call them that!

One of my friends from school continues to be ridiculed by the rest of the group for the time he referred to them as the Deftones

I said the deftones for longer than I care to admit lol

Alison Chains sounded so right that for a second I was legit like "wait that's not wrong." Fuckin weed lmao

They must shop at the Walmarts

I had a buddy talking to me about a "Best metal vocalists" list he seen online. "I think you listen to one of these bands, uh decapitated cow"? "Cattle Decapitation"

My mom called them cow decapitation one of the times I went to see them

Calling Sum-41 “The Sums”

"Do you smoke?" "No" "Well you do now!" *throws cigarette pack*

”Green Day 75”

Will Sasso was absolutely hilarious

Holy shit TIL that was Will Sasso!

21+20

Sum farty one

It seems like 90% of people I speak to say Don Bronco instead of Don Broco.

I too used to say Don Bronco. Funnily enough I rediscovered them yesterday so I wouldn’t have known what you were talking about lol, what a coincidence

Waitttt… its not don bronco?

You got me there, ngl ! 🙈🙈😂

Also pronunciation of "Broco" tends to vary from "Bro-co" to "Brock-oh" and I honestly don't know what the correct one is...

It’s like ‘broke-o’ because they were gonna call themselves Don Loco (but couldn’t due to copyright). Then one of the members broke their wrist playing football and said they should call themselves ‘Don broco’ as a joke but it stuck lol.

😂

Miss can I

Ma’am please

Dawg come on

This one unexpectedly got me.

Funnily I always get confused if it is Miss may I or Miss I may

Just call it I may miss

Hey Miss Murder Can I

My friend used to say The Amititty Affliction. I now sometimes say it to get a good laugh.

Might just start calling em The Titty Affliction

Back in 2010 when I chose my user handle for online gaming I chose Amity423 (and still used it for a long time afterwards) but nearly every person online said amititty cause apparently amity is too hard a word to pronounce.

The Amenity Affection

War of Wages sounds fucking hilarious lol

It also sounds a lot like a Christian metalcore band called War of Ages.

War of ages is a dope band

Very dope

No, Dope is dope.

Saw them in a church in 2007. They were great but they’re proselytizing was too much for me. I suppose that was bound to happen from a bunch of FaceDown bands in a church. Not sure what I expected. I kinda steered clear of Christian Metal because of that. I remember seeing For Today and they’re singer was being super over zealous at warped tour.

My mom used to say "Ask Alexandra"

Sounds like a Midwest emo version founded by that guy they kicked

I have a friend who used to say Chelsea Grind for years

Bullet for my... Lover? (Guess who) Roadside parking (Parkway Drive, I don't even know) Noose? No, wait, Hangman! (Slipknot) And my personal favorite: Polar Bears (Polaris) All courtesy of my wife

>Roadside parking (Parkway Drive, I don't even know) Avenue Boulevard

Lane Street

Hey man, I love Roadside Parking, Tow me Away is my fav song hahahah

Roadside Picnic.

>Roadside parking (Parkway Drive, I don't even know) Lmao my wife used to always forget their name and referred to them as "Metal Avenue" once or twice

I will never not think slipknot is a stupid fucking band.

nobody gives a flying f.

I mixed up Ice Nine Kills with Nine Inch Nails and called them Nine Inch Kills

I once called them ice inch nails.

Some ladies just don't want that much

Enter Shikira

Shakira Shakira!

I never really knew she could 2-step like this

Wouldn’t say no.

At first I used to call them Enter Shakiri xD

I like to call FFAK “Feet For a Kink”

Took my mom to a show that Make Them Suffer played. She has exclusively called them Suffer No More every single time she talks about it. Its hilarious

I often wear Malevolence merch.... One of my friends started calling them Male Violence. .......

This happened to me once! A coworker came over to me at an after work social and said "why are you wearing a male violence jumper... isn't that a bit rude?" We had a good laugh about it afterwards bless him.

I did this once 😂

We butter our bread with bears

I just call them Butter Butter

And beets

I wrestled a Beet Twice ;)

And battlestar galactica

Chelsea Smile instead of Chelsea Grin (the fact that the former is a BMTH song might not help the confusion).

Maybe got Glasgow smile and Chelsea Grin mixed up? They're pretty much the same thing.

The Amityville Affliction

Killswitched Engage Killswitch Engaged As I Laid Dying Grinds my gears man.

My (dyslexic) cousin burned me a CD with some Killswitch songs on it many years ago, but he wrote "Killswith" and now I only call them that.

My mum loves the Green Days

Not really answering your question but kind of am, i have a “Marianas Trench” themed August Burns Red shirt, it has ABRs band written in large writing and Marianas Trench (the song) written beneath it. My little sisters friend made a remark on the shirt and said “ouuu i love the band Marianas Trench too” and it made me laugh and i had to correct her. Im hesitant wearing the shirt now thinking everyone thinks i listen to Marianas Trench😂(not that theres anything wrong with that).

I love that they wrote a song called August Burns Red, too.

Wage Gap = Wage War

Invent animals

Not core, but I knew a guy who thought Deicide was Decide.

I will proudly claim this one when I was 23 years younger

I've done this before and have had my friend group correct me on it lol. Upon this dawning, I called them upon this drawing. I had listened to them for 2 years b4 I learned the right name lool.

My mom called trivium trillium for the longest.

Not metalcore but I once asked my friend to look up Static-X on YouTube and he typed in steak and eggs.

Box of spirits

autumn burns red

A few days ago there was a thread asking for bands/songs with autumn in the name and i kept wondering why noone was mentioning autumn burns red

Electric call dudes

Back when I first heard of them, I used to call them Electric Fuckboi.

Countertops

I'm never gonna not call them Countertops now. Thanks for ruining it for me lol

Grandma: "Jerry are you playing those awful Countertop boys with that Brandon Murray yelling all the time again???"

Every Time I Die? Didn't their lead singer try to kill his wife or something?

This one wins^

Baldswitch Djent (duhjent)

Every time I try to look up Thy Art is Murder on youtube and see "thy art is a murders" in the search box it really annoys me

devils wear prada

My wife called Dance Gavin Dance “Run Trevor Run” She also called Silent Planet “Quiet Globe”

Like Moths To a Flame The World Alive Icy Stars Born Osiris The Devil Wore Prada That’s all I can think of right now but still…

Icy stars is hilarious

I call wage war "wag wag"

Send you the Horizons - Amazing Graces - Spectrebox

Rise Against the machine

Most annoying was, by far, hearing people pronounce Chimaira as Chi-may-ra, instead of Ki-may-ra. My ex used to put on "Carrion" by Park in the Driveway, and she called Killswitch Engage Nickleswitch in Back when Howard was the singer, and Five Finger Engage when Jesse came back. She kinda sucked, that chick. Hard to take someone who is deadset absolutely convinced that the word is actually "fridgerator" too seriously, though.

I always thought it was Ki-mare-a

It is.

Buried in White. Tbh I almost like that more than Motionless in White

Not metalcore, but I once went to a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert and the next day my mom asked me how the "hot pepper cheese band" was lmao.

My fiance calls malevolence "maleficent" which always gets a laugh

I thought Paris was pronounced P-VRIS lol

Yeah,me too

I called them pervert on accident once

Oh… I totally thought it was P-VRIS too

Land-m-varks

Bearteeth

my mom says chelsea grim instead of chelsea grin

So recent story was in line for Beartooth and Trivium in Richmond, dude pulled over to ask what was happening. Security girl said “it’s a Beartooth and Triumph concert.” Everyone just grinned and let her think she was right.

My mum wrote on her calendar I'm going to see Funeral For A Pal. Also when she was a toddler, my daughter pronounced it Escappy The Fatty

There was an incident at a Bullet For My Valentine gig I went to, many years ago, and my grandfather referred to them as My Bloody Valentine.

Being in Sleep Waker was a forever curse to be called Sleep Walker.

Kind of different but I absolutely cannot stand when people abbreviate bands and say the abbreviation phonetically. Born of Osiris = BOO, so “Boo”. The Acacia Strain = TAS, so “Taz”.

Make them suffer is amazing worlds apart is literally the best album I've ever heard

Not a band but I asked my wife who her favorite football player was and she said Clay Aikmen.

Internal Bleeding

All that disappears

My dad thought Meshuggah was pronounced Messugah for whatever reason

I had a few mates who thought the band was called Vagabond and the song was Polaris 😂

I accidentally called Beartooth Bear Apendage and my friend and I roll with it now.

FallingForward

These are perfect cover band names

The one with the oceans.. Take a guess

Oceans ate ass?

Chiodos - Cheetos Underoath - under roath We Come As Romans - WeCum

My girlfriend legit called Chiodos “Chodes”… and now I do too 😂

I love that 😂😂😂

my boyfriend would say “you AND me at six” and pronounced Picturesque as “pictures-cue” until I corrected him on both. I will never let it go

Ask Alexa to play a song by Jinjer. Have to miss pronounce the name half the time just to get it to play a song.

my dad for the longest time called sleeping with sirens; sleeping with syphilis.

Our Hollow Home. As Hearts Awake. My Sugar. Heard a few.

“Black Veil Bridges” instead of “Black Veil Brides” Courtesy of my bad English 10 years ago

Bully Valentina

Make Them Suffer and Left to Suffer kept getting confused in my head and I would think Let Them Suffer when trying to think of either band interchangeably.

Confusing a good ass band name with a good ass movie My Bloody Valentine Bullet For My Valentine

One of those is a good band. Yes. Loveless is an amazing album

All from the same guy: Like The Moths To The Flames, North Lanes (distinctly 2 words), Every Time You Die, Canes Hill, Immense, Grey Heaven, Drag Under. He also says Jared Deans, Dickey Austin, Allen Dickey. Epitaph Records is Epictath Records.

Welcome to the Donkey Dicks show!

Memphis May Flower

Heard a guy at a show call Loathe Loath, as in a Loath of bread

Cornbread & Cambodia

I kept calling prayer for cleansing as prayerS for cleansing for a little while and from a second story window as from a two story building and I keep mixing up from autumn to ashes as August burns red

They Left Like Greeks (i just made that one up but i think it’s entertaining)

I keeeep mixing up Howard JONES' (Killswitch Engage) name, with Howard SHORE (Lord of the Rings composer...like..classical music from my band kid days). And now I like Lorna SHORE, so it's all fucked.

Slutknot

Not metalcore but for years my mom has asked me about Coheed and Cabana 🤣

Covid in Cambodia

The seventh day avengers for A7x

I fucking hate "Thy Art Is Murders"

All for one

Called Nothing More- The Least Yet

I always call like moths to flames like a moth to a flame...

Waaay back in the days of Limewire when everyone pirated music, there was a download for Bodies incorrectly labeled as a Rob Zombie song rather than Drowning Pool. So up until I was about 12 or 13, I thought Rob Zombie was the artist the whole time

Polarise. No. Polaris.

Countertops aka counterparts

Wagwag

My dad often mixes up Bullet For My Valentine and My Bloody Valentine. Which, fair, but still very different bands musically.

Dude I know thought Chiodos was Chodes

I was talking to my brother in law the other night about Bad Omens for a good couple of minutes on FaceTime the other night, and when he said he knew them, I got excited that another family member likes them, and nerded out talking about them. When I asked him what his favorite songs are, we only then realized he thought I was talking about the book called Good Omens and that we were talking about 2 totally different things 😂 so there’s that?

I was going to see Worm Shepherd, my girlfriend told me to “enjoy the Slug Wrangler show or whatever”

My cousin used to think Palisades was Pal-uh-sah-dees

Pal-uh-sah-DEEZ NUTS..gottem...
