Get the O'Malley mug.Bands that draw their main influence from the godfathers, Korn and Deftones and mainly from the modern textbook Nirvana and grunge created with the main rules being "keep your topics personal and introspective" and "don't show any great talent with the guitar".
Nirvana are the biggest anti heavy metal band in music history. They wanted to end all metal in 1991, not just the glam stuff. Kurt Cobain said on record that metal is "dumb kid music" and that their music was a new and better product. Jonathan Davis states the same thing about Korn & so he is the musical son of Kurt. Korn are basically Nirvana with drop tuning and attempts at "heaviness" by mindless screams and growls.
The genre as a whole is geared around challenging pop music in record sales and mass popularity,something evident with bands like Korn and Limp Bizkit attacking pop artists. Heavy Metal has no interest in this as it is cult music for it's devoted fans.
As it is trying to attract mass popularity it has to stick close to the modern rock rules and they can't step too far out of that box. Don't show too much talent on the guitar,don't play riffs that are too heavy and stick to introspective "life sucks" themes.
Mallcore is boring in style and spirit. It is geared for mass consumption and the themes of the music are always introverted and depressing. For me and hordes of other metalheads and music fans of other genres it is the worst music there is. It's false "Heaviness", it's depressing and self depricating rants, it's completely uncatchy sound, irritating riffs, lack of melody or interesting guitars. One of the worst forms of music ever.

Get the mallcore mug.A large Mall in west Nyack rockland. Nickname as the "New Mall", in comparison to the "Old Mall" located in Nanuet. Four floors, constanly shaking, because it's too big for it's own good, and built in a literal dump.
"Let's go the Old Mall, I'm sick of the New Mall."
"There's only one Starbucks in the Palisades Mall?"

Get the Palisades Mall mug.a genre of tshitty overrated pop-punk music popularized by bands such as sum 41, good charlotte, and simple plan. This type of music in no way relates to past meaning of punk, but takes on a new form in meaning partying, girls and shopping at malls. It's basically what hair bands were in the 80's, cheezy bullishit.

Get the mall punk mug.A big ass piece of shit. This mall is the infection of the small town in Mississippi, known as Gautier (go-shay). It's failing attempt at redeeming itself by banning all teenagers are their most busiest days, Fridays and Saturdays, brought failed effort to the ever chance of bringing the mall alive again. Nowadays the mall is filled with closed down stores, Ex: Sound Shop, Walden Books, etc, etc. Nothing is left there except mall rats who just walk laps around the once mall, now a long hallway. This is severe bullshit, and an upgrade is severely required.

Get the Mall Money mug.A dump that one would likely find in a mall bathroom toilet because the producer was so proud of it that he/she decided not to flush so that other people could see it. Can also be used to describe the estimated size of an upcoming dump.
