metalcore

metalcore tends to have somewhat indecipherable lyrics and awesome, though distorted, instrumentals featuring the guitar. Metalcore tends to be nfluenced by various themes including, at times, the strait edge, anti-drug/sex them.

lamb of god, unearth and other groups are considered metalcore.

mathcore

Mathcore is a euphemism used to describe talentless bands of the hardcore genre who use this term to fool you into thinking their inability to produce a coherent and catchy sounding rhythm was intentional. As such, mathcore songs are typically an amalgamation of riffs that don't sound well together with little or usually no attention paid to smooth transitions between them. Technical guitar work, complex time signatures, unorthodox chords, etc is just a more polite way of saying the band, especially the guitarist, sucks.

The Dillinger Escape Plan blows and anyone who says they like them does so because it makes them seem more "hardcore" and they want to impress their friends and other hardcore scene kids. Mathcore = sucks.

metalcore

Metalcore is a blend of metal and hardcore music. Metalcore includes breakdowns and intricatley played riffs and chords. The vocalists usually sing the verses in line and to the beat of the music and the riffs played by the band. It's not that hard to distinguish different genres of metal and hardcore and emo because of the way that the band plays their instruments, stage presence, and their sound in their screams.....being that I personally interested in hardcore and metalcore the most, I believe that I gave an accurate description.

Emocore-atreyu
hardcore-ringworm
metal-lamb of god
nu-metal-slipknot
metalcore-a dozen furies, Zao, bleeding through
post-hardcore-as i lay dying
speed metal-aborted
death metal-opeth
goth metal-cradle of filth

metalcore

Lets clear this up, being a scene kid i know what im on about! Metalcore is is a genre of hardcore and metal but mostly mhardcore. Most metalcore bands have beatdowns and sometimes interludes!

Bands like poison the well are described as melodic hardcore/metalcore. Bands such as atreyu or avenged sevenfold are NOT metalcore NOR hardcore. They are Post-hardcore. Examples of REAL hardcore bands are minor threat and gorilla biscuits.

Examples of Metalcore are.. Converge, Zao, Underoath(old) Norma Jean, The Red Chord.

Killswitch Engage, Lamb Of God, Trivium are NOT metalcore!!!!
