I don't mind metalcore. I know lots of people say all of them sound the same, but each one is different in some way.... this is not including the bands I saw at Ozzfest because in that heat, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Unearth and Anal Cunt (if Anal Cunt played there, of course).

I only have a few metalcore bands in my collection; As I Lay Dying, Lamb of God, All That Remains, Converge (one of the best), Between The Buried and Me, Bleeding Through, Unearth, and Killswitch Engage.

Some grindcore is alright. I'm more of a guy that needs stuff to be in an ordered fashion almost, including music. Sometimes grindcore gets too sloppy.

That's what I think.

Cannibal Corpse, after you listen to it for a while, is clean and rarely or never sloppy.

Yeah if you use Anal Cunt as an example but there are sooo many styles of grind.

Why do people keep insisting on making threads about core bands?

Lets clear this up once and for all. The only decent genre with core in its name is grind.

Everything else

EVERYTHING else is for fggts

Your opinion counts for shit, sunshine. Metalcore (not the likes of Eighteen Visions or KsE) has produced some of the most innovative musicians in extreme music (Botch, Drowningman, DEP, Converge, etc).

Oh my fucking god.

Compelled to Lacerate, shut up with your under experienced musical opinion on everything.

Requiem, noone gives a fuck how good grindcore is because you're a fucking idiot.

Doktorskell, you're a fucken idiot too. Now shut the fuck up in this thread and talk metalcore or get out. This thread does not need to be bogged down by your lame bullshit. Although, there is a thread that does, and thats the RTT.

Lots of people say lots of things about metalcore. I honestly have no idea what it is, aside from a combination of hardcore (which, we should remember, is metal-infused punk) with any number of variations on thrash (which is hardcore-infused metal, or metal-infused-punk-infused-metal), making it something like metal-infused-punk-infused-metal-infused-punk-infused-metal. Point is that metal and punk have been cross-pollinating for a while now. And the fact of the matter is that a lot of the metal you like isn't 1/10th as good (or, for that matter, as heavy) as the best hardcore, so cut out the bullshit.

Finally, like Mansley pointed out, while a lot of 'metalcore' is just shitty metal with shitty breakdowns, it also seems to attract some of the more interesting techies.

And unfortunately whenever the term "metalcore" is uttered, most people start to gag and stuff things in their ears because its the terrible generic shit that somehow dominates the genre in a half-assed manner.

i know isis come from the boston hardcore scene<same one as converge>i dont know if they fit the bill as metalcore<not really familiar with them>, which i guess goes to show how relative the scenes are and the bands that started out in them

the most impressive stuff ive seen live was a richmond,va band called "undying" i dont know if this band exists anymore or ever got a good release. a band that was had good songs, not technical ones.

I don't know why "breakdowns" is such a dirty word among metalheads. If it is done smoothly and heavily within the context of a song then most people won't even notice it. Death metal bands have really heavy breakdowns. Take "Slit Your Guts" by Cryptopsy or "Preemptive Strike" by Malevolant Creation. I do think it is stupid for the singer to yell "breakdown!!!!" or some shit before the breakdown happens. I think Tom Araya yelling "SOOLLLLOOOOOOO" right before Jeff Hanenman melts the neck with a wicked solo would have taken some points away from a song as well. I feel kinda hypocritical though, cause Unearth has some of the most forced breakdowns of all the new metalcore bands.

My definition of metalcore includes math-core. I don't think it's a very descriptive genre name so I prefer to class it under the metal infused hardcore (which is what bands like Botch, Drowningman, etc are) tag of metalcore.

All the bands like KsE, God Forbid, Trivium, Shadows Fall et al are New Wave of American Heavy Metal (NWOAHM) to my ears and not metalcore.

Myles: Try Botch. They don't utilize blasts but they're chock full of dissonance and feeling. Another dissonant band would be Drowningman, but they use it brilliantly in the way they employ counterpoint. They have slightly more of a hardcore feel to them than Botch, though.

Yeah, I figured as much. Why do you think I haven't heard a Trivium song yet? =P

Off topic: Decimate Christendom is class. If you haven't heard Diabolical Conquest, grab that too.

It's the only Incantation I have at the moment - and yeah it is class, moreso than I was expecting to be honest. I'll be sure to get Diabolical Conquest when I get a chance - thanks for the recommendation!

As far as popularity goes, yeah, but they are far from being the same musically. Nu-metal's more about rhythm and lack of melody, pretty much fusing hip hop with metal (pisses off a few black people where I live because they see it as the "white man takin' [their] music!"). Metalcore is heavier and involves the guitarist more than in nu-metal.

Or were you getting at the fact that every nu-metal band sounds the same just like how every metalcore band sounds the same?

i consider converge "metalcore" but i also consider them just hardcore..or even "post hardcore" if you want...to me it doesn't really matter very much. i love converge (more their pre jane doe stuff) they kick ass..and have more inovation that MOST bands. if you are unable to recognize this..then somethings wrong with you ..or you are lying to yourself haha. you don't have to like them..but to say they are shit is retarded. i used to not like them when i was just into punk rock..i thought it sounded too crazy/random and thus shitty...but later i realized they were much much better than the punk i was listening to at the time heh.

That's the same thing I thought about Cannibal Corpse. "Brutaller" music is a taste that you kind of have to develop.

On a lighter note; I HAVE to ask this because it kind of gnaws at me. What is the difference between Metalcore and Hardcore? Aren't they the same thing?

not that i hated jane doe...i just prefer forever comes crashing and petitioning the empty sky. favorite song on jane doe has got to be heaven in her arms.


to me, as far as metalcore vs hardcore goes...i see it as a kind of spectrum
punk on one end..metal on the other. punk - hardcore - metal. maybe i see it more this way because i began listening to punk..then more "hardcore punk" then eventually hardcore etc now i listen to all of that crap.

but when someone says metalcore...i just think more on the metal end of hardcore than the punk end. thats why i don't get too wrapped up in all the little names people come up with...because regardless, i just throw it somewhere in my understanding of this kind of music wherever i think it goes.

Metalcore, as it is genearlly reffered to now, has more complex guitar lines(usually related to melodic death guitar parts) than regular hardcore with a "chugging" breakdown thrown in to make the song have a moshworthy climax. the breakdowns almost always are just various synchopated rhythms of the lowest note on the guitar. They are also almost always over a 4/4 beat too. The vocals (in a shouting manner and clean, effiminate singing sporatically thrown in) and these breakdowns are what make up the "core" part of metalcore as it is reffered to now. There is anohter definition of metalcore that i dont know enough about ot describe well. The version I did describe though is what most people talk about when speaking of metalcore and it is generally frowned upon.

yeah i should have mentioned that most of what is described as metalcore today is not what the word originally meant. Out of all the genre classifications, metalcore gets thrown around the most and is a really hard genre to accurately pigeonhole.

Converge is fucking great stuff. I'm seeing them in September with Mastodon.

Botch is pretty cool, Mansley. A friend let be borrow a CD for a few days and I was impressed (although I've never been huge on that style of vocals). They've got some twisted riffage

Dunno if you consider them Metalcore, but I used to be in love with Killswitch Engage. I still like them alot, but I couldn't stop listening to "The End of Heartache." Kind of have that same feeling for Lacuna Coil right now.

BTW, I love those moments in life where you make the absolutely best choice in any decision-making situation. I chose Lacuna Coil's Karmacode over Atreyu's.... whatever album that was with the vampire-like woman on the front (Don't know too much about Atreyu, other than their lead vocalist brings down the energy in the band IMO).

Ha. I would have to say you picked the lesser of two evils but.......neither of those bands are nearly as evil as EMPEROR so there is really no point.

Meh, I don't look for evil in music. However, I do avoid pussy music like Atreyu.... no offense to Christina Scabbia, who has a pussy.

I had to throw it in, but I don't think my joke was delivered well.

I would have to say that BTBAM is more than just Metalcore. They have more versatility than most of the bands in the genre. I would say that As I Lay Dying fits. And they blow.

Glad to see some of my recommendations are welcomed!

To the twat who equated metalcore with nu-metal: Just because you do not like a particular genre does not make it nu-metal. Remove your brain from your rectum, sputum nugget.

I only have one As I Lay Dying CD (Shadows are Security). They are an alright band, but from what it looks like, no one has told them how they can actually play at a different tempo. It seems all there songs are at like 170-190. IT's good music, but show some variety.

Have any of these bands we have mentioned actually called themselves metalcore? Or do we just thrust this upon them? Cannibal Corpse refer to themselves as Death metal, Exodus as thrash metal, and pretty much all black metal bands refer to themselves as such. But i rarely hear any of these new metal bands refer to themselves as metalcore.

Does anyone else think Clients was ok? Sure, it didn't have the constant craziness of "Fused Together in Revolving Doors" but I still think it was pretty good.

I would suggest that the term "mathcore" was coined following the release of DEP's Calculating Inifnity, purely due to the name of the album. I, too, do not generally like the term "math" in music, but I can see how it has been attributed since most people don't understand complicated maths in much the same way they don't understand complicated music. I would, however, venture to say that complicated music is easier to digest than the conversion of a real equation into the complex plane before integrating it!

I hear Meshuggah getting tagged as "math metal" almost as much as Dillinger does. Although I think it is a silly term, it seems to fit Meshuggah better than Dillinger. Meshuggah's songs seem more planned and calculated than dillinger's spastic craziness.

They are a mix of death metal and metalcore, or "deathcore" for short. I just consider them metalcore because all these subgenres with the word "core" at the end (with the exception of grindcore) are getting annoying.

Mathcore
Swedecore
Melodic Deathcore
Deathcore
Rapcore (wtf?)
blackcore
Mallcore
Moshcore
Emocore

both bands used incredible subdivisions in the drumming.the dillinger drummer does crazy signatures on calculating infinity.

i think people call it "math metal" to not associate it with what fusion had turned into. some metal/grindcore is kinda going down that path anyway, soon we are gonna hear metal that sounds like weather report, or whatever "musak gone wild" band that is the epitome of souless technical wankery.

i like dillingers calculating infinity, but it has some very sour moments. mushuggahs cool but it all sounds the same, from what ive heard not owning any other album beyond choasphere. they may of started a bad trend.

"Destroy Erase Improve" is more organic and accessabile than Chaosphere. If you are not really a fan I don't think the two albums after Chaosphere warrant a purchase, DEI deserves a lookin at though, IMO.

I'm serious about all these subgenres and how they get so specific it's as if every band has it's own genre, which isn't true.

Yeah, I do get most of my "knowledge" from wikipedia. Everybody gets their knowledge from somewhere. No one just KNOWS this stuff.

I believe blizzard beast (bitchin aliteration!) was reffering to the credibility of wikipedia. The site has good intentions but the fact that anyone can put information on there sorta leads itself into some questionable info. I like the site though, go there all the time. Make sure that the info you are reading is cited, thats usually a good indicator.

I try not to read any articles on there that aren't cited, especially all the articles on all the Star Wars events and some musical articles.

I don't see any hands.


I'm kind of in love with All That Remains and Unearth. Not the kind of love as in I would spend my life with them for eterntiy, but the kind of love involving anal sex and a reach around, but that's beside the point.

I dunno why, but they just play really neat riffs and good music to headbang to. I love bands that are able to get a crowd stirring.

Mathcore
Swedecore
Melodic Deathcore
Deathcore
Rapcore (wtf?)
blackcore
Mallcore
Moshcore
Emocore


DeathCore, Blackcore, Mallcore, SwedeCore, Mathcore, Mosh Core, .... practically all genres listed are fucking gay. Especially Deathcore.
I cant stand trendy fags in death metal genres.
