Metalcore is metal lol.

Album Rating: 2.5

some say it's not

Album Rating: 2.5

okay, bad example

maybe it's the question of language differences

to me, sadness (as in "smutek") has a significantly different emotional charge to melancholy, it's pretty much like the difference between romantic and platonic love or an airplane and a helicopter

Album Rating: 5.0

metalcore is absolute garbage, but it is, in fact, metal

Album Rating: 2.5

So:

Constellations is garbage

Killing With a Smile is garbage

Ascendancy is garbage

The Ascension Attempt is garbage

Actually a TON of metalcore is fucking awesome, dude.



Converge, Botch, Posion the Well, The Chariot, Coalesce and others come to mind.



Also if it isn't metal, what is it? Reminds me of when people said "nu-metal isn't metal" back in the 90s and early 2000s, but I mean...it very obviously clearly fits into the metal category moreso than any other genre imo

Metalcore rules yeah.

If I had to throw dirt at one of the core genres I'd rather pick deathcore.

Album Rating: 4.8

Deathcore has a lot of gems too, you just have to weed through mounds of trash lmao.

Death metal is my favorite genre, but I agree that deathcore has WAY more bullshit than metalcore for some reason



Although yeah, there are some deathcore gems too agreed

Album Rating: 2.5

I'm not a fan of death metal but deathcore tends to blow regardless of that. What I heard this far is mostly a pile of scrapmetal and, like, two incredible albums and two okay albums, most of which by the exact same band lol.

Album Rating: 4.5

I can't think of a single person who wears deathcore merch and isn't a douchebag, but my experience isn't everyone's.

Album Rating: 4.8

LMAO yeah, I don't think I've ever owned a deathcore band tee tbh.

Oh yeah me neither lmfaooo

After seeing Whitechapel absolutely demolish live, I bought a shirt lol. It will be the only deathcore shirt I own.

Album Rating: 4.5

let's say everyone gets a pass on one shirt. I admit I picked up a Born of Osiris tee after The Discovery, even though I probably wore it like twice
