Get the mallxcore mug.1. Music made for and bought by mall-going teenagers/young adults, characterized by a high level of angst and a low level of sincerity. The term dates back to the late 1990s when groups like Korn, Tool, Limp Bizkit, Slipknot and the Deftones dominated rockradio and were incorrectly labeled "metal" by fans and the news media. In 2001-2002, these "nu-metal" bands took a nosedive in popularity and the metalcore rush took over, thus beginning the second generation of mallcore. While metalcore has more similarities to heavy metal than its precursor, the common aesthetics - angst, faux rebellion and generally repetitive musicianship - remain entact.
2. A style of dress associated with listeners of "mallcore" music. The "nu-metal" years were characterized by baggy pants, pocket chains, dredlocks and long goatees, while the "metalcore" era utilised unkempt hair, thick-rimmed glasses, tight pants and t-shirts of a "true" metal band that the wearer has never listened to.
3. Mallcore may also refer to a "true" metal band that changed the direction of their music to suit a "mallcore" audience.

Mallcore Goth: (n.) One who tends to hang out at the mall in almost all of their free time and can usually be found hanging out inside/outside of stores like Hot Topic and Spenser's Gifts. They tend to wear heavy black eyeshadow, black lipstick, and black nail polish, as well as funny little designs around the eyes and lips that are created with the eyeshadow. They tend to wear clothes with excessive amounts of chains and cuffs, loops, rings, and bondage straps, and lots of fishnet clothing, and thigh-high boots. Music tends to be the sorts of such bands: Korn, Slipknot, My Chemical Romance, Linkin Park, and other bands of the sort.
The kids you see around the mall, school, general public who look depressed, when in actuallity they're not. They're just pussies looking for attention who like to whine and moan in their free time about how shitty their lives are, when in actuallity, they live a life with higher status than the average middleclass family. Their parents actually love them, and they're right, but they need to put on a fake show because they're attention whores.
