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.

Deathcore is not an exact crossbreed between Death Metal and Metalcore. It still is largely Metalcore in its character. The fact that Deathcore features breakdowns, palm muting, blastbeats, death grunts, pig squeals, shrieks and screams entails in people wrongly understanding it to be Death Metal. Nonetheless, breakdowns are now widely accepted as being representative of Deathcore and not as much Death Metal which was established by bands like Dying Fetus as being a characteristic of Death Metal. An easy method of distinguishing between Deathcore and Death Metal would be to consider the lyrical content. Death Metal discusses gore, bloodshed, murder, rape etc. to vulgar lengths while Deathcore features no such references in its songs. Another thing to consider is the sound - this is the tricky part and it may lead to some falsely believing Deathcore to be Technical Death Metal due to its speed and frequent key changes. Deathcore tends to sound very disorganised and monotonous due to its formulaic approach towards music.

Get the deathcore mug.Deathcore... a music created when Death Metal meets Metalcore. Though many believe hardcore has nothing to do with Deathcore, this is not true, for the fact that Metalcore is a main factor of Deathcore, and Metalcore is a fusion on Hardcore meets Metal, thus is the results of breakdowns and shout outs. Though many believe "TRUE" Death Metal is more complex than Deathcore makes no sense. Both feed off their own sounds of punishment, it's only a matter of what you want to hear. Both are technical, so there shouldn't be any hate towards any of them for the lack of "what i like". And if you don't like the Hardcore/Metalcore influences in Deathcore, don't hate, shut it off and shut up, listen to straight Death Metal.

Get the Post-Deathcore mug.A genre of music that is a very poor combination of deathmetal and metalcore. Very few bands within the genre actually have any musical talent or experience. Every song ever written in the genre has annoying screams and pig squeals, chugging on one chord throughout the entire song, constant crashing of a china symbol on drums, and exact same song structures. All fans that listen to this genre wear womens clothes, are too pussy to mosh so they hardcore dance, and are just emo faggots who fail at being metal. Bands such as Chelsea Grin try to write creative, "Br00tal" lyrics, but always fail. People often mistake deathcore for deathmetal, which is sad. All bands in this genre should just stop trying because they give metal a bad name.
