Math Core

Math Core is a sub-sub-genre to the ever poplular metal and Death Metal.
Math Core is typically defined as Death Metal vocals with Progressive Metal music, utilizing odd meters such as 7/4, and changing keys and tempos constantly.
Named "Math"core because of the complexity of the music, rivaling that of classical composers, not to be confused with neo-classical metal
Math Core typically contains the same make up as a metal band, with 2 guitarists, a bassist, drummer, and singer. but sometimes these come in a power trio, with a guitarist, a Warr guitarist, and drummer.
Protest the Hero, Human Abstract, Behold...the Arctopus are my favorite Math Core bands

Common Core Math

Common Core math is the rotten stuff they teach kids at school. But let's get real. We hate it because it's making our kids smarter than us. During quarantine, I'm perfectly fine teaching my 1st Grader. But Common Core has made my fifth grader smarter than me.

Child: It's a diagram, mom.
Me: This doesn't make sense.
Child: It's Common Core Math, Mom.

mathcore

mathcore aka math metal is a form of hardcore and metal that employs unorthodox chords and time signatures as well as poly-rhythms. mathcore bands often quickly change from part to part with some exceptions such as meshuggah. early mathcore was very atonal and was mostly discordant atonal parts. however bands like dillinger escape plan have started to add electronics and clean passages to their music. tapping is a popular technique among mathcore bands because of its unorthodox sound. bands like psyopus have gone so far as only to use tapping.

mathcore styles vary greatly due to the individuality that is the scene commends.some of the more melodic mathcore bands include the dillinger escape plan. other math core bands stick to guitar stunts and crazy parts like psyopus. bands like meshuggah use low heavy poly-rhythmic parts to make their sound. bands like evrytime i die keep a rockin feel but throw in unorthodox chords and parts to make them math metal

mathcores influence can be seen in many genres. bands like Lamb of god use out of scale odd time signatures on songs like hourglass. bands like the fall of troy use some of the same techniques as math rockers. finally meshuggah has become the favorite artist of prog metalers like tool and porcupine tree
