Few bands have shaped modern deathcore as radically in recent years as Lorna Shore. With their epic sound blending blast beats and orchestral drama, they’ve been pushing genre boundaries, especially since “To the Hellfire.” What started as an underground insider tip has become a global phenomenon, thanks in part to their emotionally charged album Pain Remains and the recent singles “Oblivion” and “Unbreakable,” which herald a new era. But which songs truly define the band’s sound? We’ve compiled ten of their strongest tracks.
Cursed to Die
With “Cursed to Die,” Pain Remains (2022) delivers one of the album’s most direct and melodic tracks, yet no less intense.
Pain Remains II: After All I’ve Done, I’ll Disappear
The second act of the "Pain Remains" trilogy is both emotional core and cathartic center: a powerful composition about loss, pain, and disappearing into nothingness.
Of the Abyss
“Of the Abyss” from the ...And I Return to Nothingness EP (2021) brings crushing grooves and orchestral bombast: a fan favorite and strong bridge between the old and new era.
Immortal
The monumental title track of the Immortal (2020) album stands as a symbol of the band’s transitional phase: heavy and abyssal. It was recorded with CJ McCreery, who left the band shortly before the release.
Flesh Coffin
Still with Tom Barber as frontman, “Flesh Coffin”, the title track of the 2017 album, delivers a dark, atmospherically dense piece that showcases the band’s early roots.
Unbreakable
The second 2025 single “Unbreakable” from I Feel the Everblack Festering Within Me surprises with a positive message while maintaining sonic brutality: a powerful statement of unity.
Sun//Eater
With “Sun//Eater” from Pain Remains (2022), the band released one of their most melodic yet most punishing compositions; an epic balancing act.
Oblivion
The first single from I Feel the Everblack Festering Within Me. Lorna Shore continues refining their symphonic brutality.
Pain Remains I: Dancing Like Flames
The opener of the Pain Remains trilogy. Dramatic, orchestral, and deeply emotional - a statement for a new kind of deathcore.
To The Hellfire
Lorna Shore’s viral breakthrough with Will Ramos: a technical and emotional storm that pushed deathcore a bit further into the mainstream. The final breakdown is already legendary.
