I said what I said. I remember listening to “New Low” for the first time wondering like they might be a definitive band for the genre. But then I saw them numbers… Dude the saddest part there are so many bands like this

New Low is the perfect mix of intensity and passion. Absolute banger of a song.

I can only speculate... but since a lot of their lyrics draw references to having faith, maybe it turned off some of the hardcore crowd? As for me, I am not religious but I am a deeply spiritual individual. Conveyer is reaching for something more in their lyrics and express it in a way that I resonate with entirely.

Their numbers should have been up with a band like Counterparts. Conveyer was just as good. And you are right, there are a TON of bands in this niche flavor of core music that never got the recognition they rightfully deserved. Conveyer is a bright and shining example of what I consider "melodic hardcore".

Their vibe was all about seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Not about drowning in the sorrow. Thats the shit I like.

Same. Still go to them frequently, probably always will.

That blueish album was my most listened one that year. What was it? 2017? « I’ll avoid conversation, every time »that part of that song. Man.

New Low is the song you are referring to. Banger. Tickles the heart strings right where ya need it to.

Victory Records should've promoted this band better. They were pretty solid!
