A genre of metal that is mixed between metalcore and death metal. It can even be hardcore at the same time. Signs of deathcore include pig squeels, powerful lows and gurgling. Bands such as Despised Icon and Whitechapel lead the scene. Other notable acts include Suicide Silence which demonstrates grind as well (other deathcore with a splash of grind include Chelsea Grin). Deathcore is generally ruled by copy-cat artist and other awful bands. People normally do not respect it except those notable bands listed above. These genres are extremely influenced by the thrash bands and hardcore punk bands. And even goregrind (also death metal) bands such as Cannibal Corpse. Deathcore is a big melting pot of genres, techniques and different talent levels.
