Are you ignoring like 75% of every mxc band in the last 20 years?

yeah post hardcore/metalcore/deathcore. on that point though, it is kind of interesting that the movement didn't branch out into more traditional metal genres for the most part. i would guess it's because core was booming and easy to market.

it’s cuz metal had its gatekeeping

"In my opinion, black metal today is just music. I will tell you that neither I nor other members of Mayhem were ever really against religion or anything else. We are primarily interested in music."

I also think a lot of it just comes down to a lot of MySpacecore coming out of the bible belt. they weren't a Christian band but when I first found out Iwrestledabearonce were from Louisiana my immediate response was "yeah that sounds right."
