Overview

I Put My Friends In Water And Watch Them Drown
Nashville, TN | Post-Hardcore // Metalcore // Experimental Chaos

Coming out of Nashville’s underground like a punch to the chest, I Put My Friends In Water And Watch Them Drown is chaos in its most honest form. Blending post-hardcore, metalcore, and glitchy experimental noise, we make music that doesn’t fit clean lines or safe spaces. It’s breakdowns with teeth, synths soaked in blood, and lyrics that hit like late-night thoughts you’d rather forget.

About

I Put My Friends In Water And Watch Them Drown
Nashville, TN | Post-Hardcore // Metalcore // Experimental Chaos

Birthed in the boiling undercurrent of Nashville’s underground, I Put My Friends In Water And Watch Them Drown is the sound of beautiful destruction. Equal parts post-hardcore chaos and melodic nihilism, they blend crushing breakdowns, synth-laced interludes, and tortured poetry into a genre-defiant soundscape. Think Bring Me The Horizon’s evolution, Motionless in White’s theatrical venom, and the glitchcore weirdness of I Set My Friends On Fire—then drown it all in a haze of Southern sweat and existential dread.

Their music doesn’t ask for permission—it grabs you by the throat and drags you underwater, where heartbreak, rage, and distorted hope bubble just beneath the surface. From shrieked confessions to ambient lullabies turned nightmares, every song is a descent into emotional ruin with just enough melody to make you want to stay.

Known for unpredictable live shows and lyrics that read like love letters to the end of the world, IPMFIWAWTD is here to make you feel everything you’ve tried to bury.

This isn’t just a band.
It’s a warning.
And it’s already too late.

Influences and inspiration

Bring Me The Horizon
Once the poster boys for deathcore, BMTH mutated like a beautiful monster, evolving through each album with unapologetic ambition. "Suicide Season" was raw aggression, but by the time they hit "Sempiternal" and "That's the Spirit", they were fusing electronic, pop, and alt-rock into something emotional and cinematic. They taught a generation that vulnerability could scream just as loud as fury—and sometimes even louder.

Motionless in White
Dark, theatrical, and heavy as hell—MIW blends horror imagery, industrial textures, and gothic romance with pummeling metalcore. Chris Motionless spits venom one moment and croons like a broken-hearted villain the next. Their lyrics drip with self-loathing, defiance, and twisted beauty, like Marilyn Manson met Slipknot in a haunted cathedral.

I Set My Friends on Fire
You want experimental chaos? ISMFOF throws all the rules out the window and sets the building on fire while they’re at it. They're the glitch in the matrix of post-hardcore—melding metal, synth, screamo, and meme-tier absurdism. Albums like "You Can’t Spell Slaughter Without Laughter" felt like a fever dream. They’re a reminder that sometimes, music should just f**k with you.

Other Kindred Spirits:

Enter Shikari – Political, electronic, and chaotic with a sci-fi edge. Think rave meets revolution.

Attack Attack! – The blueprint for crunkcore, auto-tune and synths married to breakdowns.

Falling in Reverse – Theatrical, polarizing, and genre-jumping. Rap, rock, metal—Ronnie Radke does whatever the hell he wants.

Sleep Token – Mysterious and ethereal, balancing serene melodies with soul-crushing breakdowns. A religious experience.

Bilmuri – Emo trap-core for people who scream-cry in their car but make it funny.

Ghostemane / Scarlxrd – If industrial metal, trap, and horrorcore had a baby raised on nihilism.
