I'm looking for some new music to buy on Itunes. When I'm working out at the gym it helps when I'm listenning to some of the harder tracks I own so I'll list some bands (warning, some are a bit emo) and I'm looking for some suggestions on others bands or albums by the bands listed that have been released in the past year or so.

I haven't listened to hardcore in probably over a year, but those are the bands that I dig enough to keep in my library.
Protest The Hero
The Fall Of Troy
Mastodon
Enter Shikari
Bring Me The Horizon
American Me
Cancer Bats
Trivium (to a certain degree)
Most of my library is heavier stuff than that, but they should be ok for what you're looking for (hardcore/metalcore).
If you're looking for something heavier then those you should make sure you've tried all the essential 80's trash like Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Testament, Sepultura, Pantera, Iron Maiden, Motorhead, Kreator and Judas Priest.
Fear Before
At The Drive-In
Also, Circle Takes the Square.
Heaven Shall Burn
Bloodjin
Blood Has Been Shed
Throwdown
Terror
Lamb of God
All staples of my workout music.
xbl - HowYouGetAnts
steam - WeAreAllGeth
Awesome aussie hardcore
Also! Take a look at Eleventh he reaches London.
One of the few hardcore bands I like. Most hardcore I don't like, because I get bored of standard song structures quickly. Hopesfall did some more interesting stuff though, early on.
Also second on I Killed the Prom Queen. I like the old singer with the irritating screechy voice. I don't know why. I just do.
So-called Groove Metal:
Lamb of God ("Forgotten (Lost Angels)")
Devil Driver
Technical Death:
Arsis ("The Sadistic Motives Behind Bereavement Letters")
Psycroptic
Death:
Arch Enemy ("Rise of the Tyrant")
In Flames
Static-X also has some great workout songs.
Zombie Autopilot
And
Sanctity of Brothers
God I love these guys.
e: I'm fucking retarded, didn't notice Unearth already in there. My bad.
Blood for Blood
Throwdown
Five Finger Death Punch
Machine Head
Despised Icon
Pantera
Superjoint Ritual
Damageplan
Killswitch Engage
Slipknot
Soulfly
Sepultura
August Burns Red
Misery Signals

Weaboo List
Started as a side project of Shaggrath from Dimmu Borgir. Think of them as a modern Motorhead.
Envy - Japanese post-hardcore band.
Zao - try the self titled album or the 2006 The Fear is What Keeps Us Here

Ceremony- Best hardcore punk band alive. Absolutely phenomenal no matter which album you pick. Listen to Violence Violence then get Still Nothing Moves You. They're out of California and relatively obscure but Davey Havok covered Straight Edge Revenge by Project X with them at a local show last November. I cannot recommend them enough.
Versus- Political hardcore. Just broke up. So fucking good.
Sabertooth Zombie- Local California band. I have never heard a band like this in my life. So much power and energy in their songs.
Trash Talk- Awesome hardcore.
HeWhoCorrupts- Political grindcore. Crazy, mind blowing shit.
Necrophagist- 90s death metal but still some of the most intense music I've heard.
I'm more of a hardcore punk rock guy.
Korpiklaani
Windir
Folkearth
Manegarm
Stille Volk
Tankard
Apocalyptica
Probably my favourite album by them. Even though its very dark, it's still catchy enough to singalong to.
Painkiller by Judas Priest is a must own. Videos in the spoilers.
Metallica's Ride the lightning and Master of Puppets are staple thrash metal albums.

Megadeth's Rust in Peace is probably the best thrash album I've heard and I would highly recommend it along with Peace sells and Countdown to Extinction.

Not really a big hardcore fan, so I can't really recommend anything.
Pendulum*
Alexisonfire
Killswitch engage
Alterbridge
Enter shikari
Hell is for heroes
Fightstar

kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some
sorta the same but like 20 times more intense:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go8KMq_WjLI
and I second the Protest the Hero and In Flames.
seriously, check these guys out. They started doing the metalcore scene, which seems to be what you're looking for, but their debut album moved a bit away from it and is excellent.
Children of Bodom
A lot of metalheads will look down on you for liking them, but they are one of my favorite bands ever.
Nile.
Awesome technical death metal.
There's a lot of stuff out there dude. Metal is one of the most diverse genres out there.
I dont care what anyone says. I dont care if they can play their songs live or not.
Their recorded shit is awesome.
I don't care what anyone says either. They are amazing live. I saw them at the Ogden in Denver back in December, and it was epic. Turisas played before them, and they were amazing too. Dragonforce was spot on, didn't miss a note. It was one of the best show's I've been to.

Most of the other bigger bands I would have recommended have already been recommended, so here's a couple of up and coming fucking awesome metal bands.
Body of Scars - Unless they've updated the page in the last couple of days, the first two tracks they have available are currently just raw recordings and have no bass player, but they are still good.
Vindicator - up and coming thrash band. These guys are hit or miss for me as I don't always care for the singer, but there's some kick ass rocking going on, too.
The Number 12 Looks Like You.
The Dillinger Escape Plan
Can't go wrong with those :^:
Most of this thread is like me saying I like Metallica and then people recommending that I go listen to Burzum
Indeed. The poor guy is probably going to have bleeding ears. You have to ease into some of these recommendations!
After Forever
Anarchy Club
Apocalyptica (which was already mentioned)
Black Sabbath
Celldweller (Industrial but maybe worth checking out)
