Deathcore

[Perpetual Catatonia]

Why so many fucking sub-genres?

Bands are trying to be original but most are failing horribly because of "fusion genres". I don't think "deathcore" is a bad idea, but if you're going to do it... Then don't suck!

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Deathcore is a pretty new genre, but I wouldn't necessarily call it accepted yet (generally). It usually requires two parts metalcore and one and a half parts (brutal) death metal/deathgrind.

Despised Icon
Animosity
Happy Face (seriously, they're good)
Zubrowska
All Shall Perish
etc.

All of that is commonly accepted as "deathcore." However, like "viking metal" (which I am vehemently against the usage of as a genre), it's not a real genre.

Despised Icon's The Healing Process is a fucking brilliant CD, so I highly recommend it as a starting point if you want to hear GOOD metalcore (NOT As I Bullet For My Dying Trivium gay shit) crossed with GOOD deathgrind.

Deathcore is just as legitimate a genre as blackdeath. A fusion of two styles of music.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Exactly. it's like black/thrash, black/death, death/doom, etc. There are just currently less bands playing the style, so it is not currently "accepted" by most people.

Edit: I changed the title because the original was indicative of a troll post or something, so now this is a discussion. If I see constant flaming of the style or of its constituent styles, there will be posts deleted and a possible lock. Play nice!

One day, when I understand the depths of music termenology and whatever I will explain to you how it is a real genre. One of these days

But yeah, Despised Icon pretty much fucking slays/

Ok this can't be true like honestly Deathcore? Some guy on my forum posted this about Despised Icon and to be honest it's pretty proof that this guy knows shit




Like honestly is Deathcore really a fucking genre?

shut up & stuff.

I just got the new Burning Skies album - Desolation. It sounds like what I imagine Deathcore to be.... yeah/nah?

 

[Hubster]

You know to be honest I just ignore the Deathcore tag. I just think its too insignificant to be taken seriously.

 

[Life Sucks]

Deathcore. How about blackcore or doomcore or powercore? I've actually seen the term "thrashcore" used before, and thought it pretty damn funny. Thrash was actually partially influenced by hardcore, but obviously not shitty modern metalcore, which it predates by well two decades.

There is a band called Undertakers, and they play simple death metal with heaps of hardcore influence. But I wouldn't call them "deathcore."

 

[Hubster]

The -core thing is a bit funny really, don't you think? I wonder who makes some of this stuff up? It's quite humourous.

 

[Satanstoenail]

If there's slam death and brutal death and melodeath and everyotherfuckingdeath then there may as well be deathcore.

Ok but here's a question everyone says Trivium is Metalcore...but why? doesn't Metalcore have to have some sort of beats of Hardcore music blended with Metal? and in this case I don't see any bits of Hardcore in Trivium the only reason most ppl call them Metalcore because of the way he sings...which to me, Lyrics/Singing don't mean 2 shits on music...but whatever...Deathcore is a strange (Sub-genre) or whatever, I just find it to be an odd combination at best

People call Trivium metalcore because they suck. But yeah, you're right, there is hardly any hardcore in their music. Their vocals are almost all clean, and metalcore bands use harsh "metalcore" vocals more than half the time, for the most part. Trivium is kinda like heavy rock, or rock-ish metal, but I wouldn't call them heavy metal, and I definitely wouldn't call them thrash.
