Hey guys, I am looking to expand my music library with some sweet, sweet metalcore action. The following bands are what I've been listening to lately:

As I Lay Dying
Killswitch Engage
A Day to Remember
All that Remains
Memphis May Fire

I'm looking for bands with mostly screamed verses, mostly clean chorus', and heavy instrumentals. Basically I want a headbang-sing-headbang-sing kinda thing going
I'm not opposed to the occasional all-clean or all-harsh song if I like the band though (for we are many - atr is all harsh, all i want - adtr is all clean), but I'm NOT looking for bands that are all-clean or all-harsh for all their songs.
I am NOT looking for bands that have high-pitched harsh vocals like The Devil Wears Prada, I'm pretty set on the lower-pitched harsh vocals in that sense. Basically if their harsh vocals sound similar to what I've listed then thats cool.

Sorry for being so specific, but I see a lot of threads that say "similar bands to 'band i like'" and the suggestions are really hit or miss because it isn't really specific.

Thanks a lot for all of your suggestions! I'm looking forward to listening to them!

Im sure you've heard of them, but if not, check out these guys.
"Parkway Drive" from Australia. They've worked a lot with Adam D of KSE.
You'll find there are no clean vocals but they substitute this well with melodic lead guitars in their choruses and heavy riffing through the verses to showcase an array of dynamics.

Check it!

Slightly different vibe than the above listed bands. Less produced sounding, less polished. But still good nonetheless.
