Why is it square? I hate all these subdivisions. Why does it have to be placed in a sub genre? Sure it's original.....original metal, leave it at that. Soon we're going to have derivative-of-the-limit-of-the-square-root-of-the-fifth-interval-harmonized-second core with a little hint of physicscore. It's getting rediculous. If anything just call it tech. death.
What's wrong with mathcore? A single (but effective) word...rather than saying "original technical 'death' (they're not death metal at all btw) metal, with odd time signatures and complex polyrhythms". It's not that hard to figure it out:

math (coming from the complexity of math rock) + core (coming from the metallic edge found on metalcore) = MATHCORE (or MAYBE Math metal in this case).

I have no problem in using these subdivisions. I've heard some bands who combine more than two (even more) genres, so when I talk about them it's something like:

Kayo Dot: avant-garde/doom/post-rock

I use them to be more specific. I could say Karaboudjan is original metal...am I being specific? Nope. Some guy who says Bloodbath is "original metal" is being specific? Nope.

In my opinion, subdivisions only get ridiculous when they come out from lyrical themes: troll metal, porno metal, etc.

But oh well...to each his own!
 
Why does it have to be so specific? I mean come on......mathcore? The only people i hear using as many subdivisions are emos. I just hate hearing "core" after any word in the dictionary in order to describe a certain type of music.

Well, that's just me. For example, Bloodbath and Edge of Sanity are death metal, yet each band has its own sound. Resurrection Through Carnage (old-school style death metal...or simply death metal) is very different compared to Crimson II (progressive death metal). That's how I'm being specific. According to your logic, the terms "hardcore" and "metalcore" should have never existed.

And I'm not emo, so I wouldn't know. As I said...TO EACH HIS OWN.
 
True... progressive, blast, gore, old school, brutal, speed, technical, math, gore porn!?!?!?... all sub-divisions to explain in a better way the style of a band. That doesn't means that you're Emo if you use this terms.
 
Hey Thanks... I love that part :)...

It's like the climax... hahahaha... like a scene in a movie before the Bloodbath!!!!

suddenly the music stops and the atmosphere changes... the dark voice of peter appears:

The Sky Embedded In The Death Of A Nova
Effigy Is Seen In A Second Of Light
No Voice In The Crack Of His Mouth
BastardSonOfGod

And then the fucking blastbeat part aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarg!!!! Goooooore!!!!
