I want to listen to people who will still be around in a decade

Bands stay around when they have support. If you want bands to last, listen to them and see them play.

Lorna Shore, August Burns Red, Bad Omens, Bury Tomorrow, In Flames

Judging by the image, their concern is more that a lot of the bands they currently listen to are simply of an age that they've retired or died. It's not a lack of fans that stopped Black Sabbath from playing, it's that the members are well in to their 70s

Well if you like Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy and now In Flames just go down the melodeath rabbit hole:

  • Dark Tranquillity
  • At The Gates
  • Soilwork
  • The Halo Effect
  • Majesties

And then you've got the whole deathcore scene which has been massively influenced by melodeath.
