"metalcore isnt even metal"

Man who the fuck cares. Be whatever you want to be even if it's "not real metal."

I think it depends on what band you talk about. As with any fusion genre, some bands lean more toward one side than the other... for instance, I'd consider bands like Converge and Earth Crisis to be much more on the -core side, whereas bands like As I Lay Dying and Trivium clearly take enough from thrash and melodeath that they're more on the metal side

Honestly I just couldn't care less what is or isn't "real metal". Genre boundaries have always struck me as arbitrary. I don't care about classifying my own music for instance - other people can try to stick me in a box and I'll always try to claw my way out.

I always find better luck finding what I like by going off descriptors, vibes, feelings, rather than a rigid genre box. So I apply that same logic to my own music.

Again, why should it matter? Why are we gatekeeping here? It's not our fault that "trve kvlt" metal rarely touches on the lyrical subjects metalcore and other "fake metal" does, so it's not even like people like me can have much to latch onto so to say.

it always matters. here u are all mad bc it matters lmao. theres no difference between calling mccore not metal and calling classical not pop



metal doesnt gatekeep, its wide open. most people just dont step inside. mccore kids are welcome but instead they go 1000 miles in the opposite direction and demand to be let in. like dude there isnt even any walls just walk in, but they dont



what do lyrics have to do with anything

No it literally doesn't matter. Genre barriers are the most pointless, creativity-stifling thing on the face of the earth.

"mccore kids are welcome but instead they go 1000 miles in the opposite direction and demand to be let in. like dude there isnt even any walls just walk in, but they dont"

how do they do that? a lot of the "big trad metal" albums just honestly sound cheesy to me.

"what do lyrics have to do with anything"

i dunno, probably how damn-near-impossible it tends to be to find relatable subject matter in "true metal" beyond either 1-2 songs in a band's career usually, or if you just go headfirst into nothing but like gothic doom style stuff. With core you can still have more energy at times alongside those lyrical themes.
