History Music / Emmure

* SmallNameBigEgo: Frankie has been cited as having one, hence why members tend to come and go at a rather quick pace. He at least seems to have become cognizant of just how much of an asshole he is and has apparently been trying to change as a person for the better.

Emmure is a {{Deathcore}} band from Connecticut. Originally formed as a project between vocalist Frankie Palmeri and rhythm guitarist Ben Lionetti. The latter left in 2009, as did most of the band. Since then, it's been Palmeri and anyone near him who will play instruments. Emmure began as a pretty straightforward {{Deathcore}} with their 2007 debut album ''Goodbye to the Gallows'', but overtime integrated NuMetal elements in their music, which by 2014's ''Eternal Enemies'', became just as prominent, if not moreso, than the deathcore sound.

* Josh Miller - drums (2016-present)

* TheBandMinusTheFace: {{Averted|Trope}}; technically Emmure now is Glass Cloud with Jerry Roush being replaced by Frankie.

* FisticuffProvokingComment: The (perceived) insult from [[Music/TheAcaciaStrain Vincent Bennett]] on "Skynet" (despite Vincent's repeated insistence that the song had nothing to do with him) turned into this. While "[=R2DEEPTHROAT=]" explicitly was a shot at him, Frankie didn't stop there, as a stop at Northern Lights in Clifton Park ended with a fistfight between the two that Frankie instigated (the most common recollection being that Frankie confronted Vincent, Vincent laughed and told him to chill out and that he had nothing against him, Frankie sucker-punched Vincent, Vincent warded off Frankie while repeatedly telling him that he wasn't going to fight him, and Frankie upped the ante by putting on knuckledusters, which finally got Vincent to [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown turn Frankie into vanilla pudding]]).
* IAmTheBand: Officially, Emmure is Frankie Palmeri and anyone at the moment who's willing to play instruments for him. The only other consistent member was guitarist Jesse Ketive (who was actually the second guitarist), and he left along with the rest of the band in 2015.

** The latest single "Torch" however seems to have gone back to more of the band's original deathcore style. That's probably very much to do with the fact that apart from Frankie, it's basically an entirely new band.

* Phil Lockett - bass (2016-present)

* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: Frankie Palmeri reeks of this in particular. Just look at [[http://www.metalsucks.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/palmeri.jpg him]]

** "[=R2DEEPTHROAT=]" was one for [[Music/TheAcaciaStrain Vincent Bennett]] after Frankie thought that Bennett had insulted him and Emmure on "Skynet" (something Bennett repeatedly and vehemently denied), and it resulted in a full-blown fistfight between the two in 2009 and a subsequent truce.

* SopranoAndGravel: Normally a one-man variation. Palmeri will alternate between singing, rapping (with the song "Shinjuku Masterlord" providing some AWildRapperAppears feel), chanting, screaming, and growling in a moment's notice in most songs.

--> "Do you really thing I GIVE A FUCK? Because I don't".

* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Generally an 8 or 9 because of the deathcore elements. But the alternation between clean singing/rapping (especially in their later material) keep it from going higher like other bands.

* Djent: See above.

** "Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle" happens to be more of a clear-cut case. Frankie handles the harsh vocals here while Karl Schubach of Misery Signals fame provides singing.

* OneOfUs: Quite a lot of songs contain references to comic books and Transformers. Josh Travis is also well known as being a nerd himself.

* NewSoundAlbum: ''Felony'' introduced nu metal elements, such a rapped vocals and nu-influenced riffs. By ''Eternal Enemies'' it became extremely prominent, with other aspects added in such as turntable scratching and use of electronica. Even their music videos have started to resemble '90s nu metal music videos.
