A crappy mallcore excuse for metal. False metal is commonly listened to wannabee teens who think it's so BR000TAL. It is commonly misclassified as "extreme metal" when it is just poser music, not even real metal. Examples are Suicide Silence and Cradle of Filth.
scene kid: z0mg ss aND c0f r soo br00tal extreem medal!!
Real metal head: No, that's called false metal or poser music. Go back to hot topic.

"False metal" is a term created by Manowar in the 80s to describe glam metal music.
Nowadays it also includes nu metal, deathcore, metalcore and similar genres. Some people also include DSBM (depressive suicidal black metal).
