Troll Metal
Overly melodic 'extreme' metal. Characterized by strange band names, overly complex song titles, influence from classical music, and catchy choruses. Rhapsody, Bal-Saggoth, and Stormlord are all good examples of Troll Metal. See also Glory Metal.

noisecore
noisecore is a subgenre of metal that transcends both hardcore and metal. It's intrumentation is unique- in that the guitar riffs are numerous and chaotic- often involving harmonics and fretboard noise. The vocals are normal screamed and hard to follow. That , however does not mean that the lyrics themselves are banal and unintelligent. On the contrary, noisecore lyrics are esoteric and ambiguous often having multiple meanings. Some of the most proficient of drummers can be found in noisecore.The rythmns are sporadic and often polyrythmic as well. Jazz influences can also be found in noisecore as well. The more complex the music is, the farther away from tradional song structures become.Chaos in noisecore is paramount.Noisescapes and samples are found frequently in this genre as an enhancement to the music to give it a more darker feel.
