03.29.23 | Nice, one step closer to math rock being correctly used |

03.29.23 | I'm not so sure about The Armed |
JohnnyoftheWell
03.29.23 | ngl I hadn't jammed Rorschach until 30 seconds ago but 1) damn they kinda slap and 2) hmm yeah no objections to the tag so far
Deadguy as early mathcore is okay in my books but no strong feelings either way |

03.29.23 | was gonna say sawtooth grin and me and him call it us too but the line between "white belt grind" and mathcore is a blur to me, someone who cares more can make that call. also early daughters y/n? |
Demon of the Fall
03.29.23 | I'm on this.
One Q: if a band is tagged with mathcore, is there any point ALSO tagging them with metalcore? I suppose they may have 'less mathy' material in their discog, idk could be somewhat important, but seems kind of redundant on the face of it (guess it doesn't matter unless a band absolutely needs two other tags that aren't mathcore). |
Demon of the Fall
03.29.23 | Rolo help...
in the absence of Sass, could Rolo be mathcore / post-hardcore / post metal - they have developed post leanings in their later work imo and would it make more sense than most? Food for thought. |
GhandhiLion
03.29.23 | @demon
That's not necessarily redundant, no. |
GhandhiLion
03.29.23 | jazz rap when |
Mort.
03.29.23 | in terms of the chart, it makes sense for badns to show up on both lists
converge is a metalcore band. they could also be described as a mathcore band
id want to find them on both charts. not redundant at all |
Mort.
03.29.23 | i understand your reasoning is probably something like 'all mathcore bands are metalcore bands so its redundant to describe them as metalcore'
but think about the actual reasons why someone might browse by genre and its quickly clear that you simply need mathcore bands to show up when you browse for metalcore
|
AlexKzillion
03.29.23 | seeyouspacecowboy
the chariot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Mort.
03.29.23 | also on another note, all the screechy mathy white belt grind can usually get a mathcore tag but doesnt want a metalcore tag. sawtooth grin for example should have a mathcore tag and grind but no metalcore one |
AlexKzillion
03.29.23 | "One Q: if a band is tagged with mathcore, is there any point ALSO tagging them with metalcore?"
yeah really depends on the the discog and i guess how mathy their sound really is. like i think etid and converge should absolutely keep their metalcore tag... but like dillinger and tony danza can probably lose it as they are pretty much mathcore through and through. or in rolo's case, metalcore/math rock was just a place holder for mathcore the whole time and def have better tags that should replace those.
i think the only downside of some of these bands maybe losing the metalcore tag is that they wouldn't show up in the metalcore charts anymore, despite mathcore being distinct subgenre of metalcore |
Mort.
03.29.23 | also the fall of troy should be on here |
Demon of the Fall
03.29.23 | @Mort. 'i understand your reasoning is probably something like 'all mathcore bands are metalcore bands so its redundant to describe them as metalcore''
precisely, however...
your point is a fair one and not something I'd thought of tbh, because I don't really use Sput in that way anymore. Fair enough. It makes sense to tag with both then. |
Mort.
03.29.23 | 'mathcore being distinct subgenre of metalcore'
we shouldnt think of these like ironclad scientific classifications. mathcore is a word used to describe bands that TEND to also get described as metalcore
however i wouldnt bat an eyelid at someone describing say, doppleganger and self-titled era The Fall of Troy as mathcore, although i wouldnt call them metalcore
to me mathcore is just a useful word to describe mathy bands across the heavier side of the rock spectrum (plenty of mathcore bands are more punk/hardcore than metal) |
GhandhiLion
03.29.23 | No to fall of troy. Also no to fall of troy being math rock |
Mort.
03.29.23 | im not a math rock purist so i dont really care |
AlexKzillion
03.29.23 | that's actually very true mort i'm with that |
JohnnyoftheWell
03.29.23 | The Fall of Troy have a small handful of tracks on Doppelganger that could be called mathcore and thereafter next to nothing
not super attached to the idea of Chariot as mathcore over metalcore but it does fit ig |
Demon of the Fall
03.29.23 | 'like i think etid and converge should absolutely keep their metalcore tag... but like dillinger and tony danza can probably lose it...'
yeah, that's where I was leaning, but Mort. helped me see that it would mess charts / searches up. I'd probably have done similar if left to my own devices. And yeah Rolo also don't need metalcore imo. |
Mort.
03.29.23 | first album too, not just doppleganger
|
Mort.
03.29.23 | at the end of the day tho it doesnt really matter too much. we can all just tag these bands as we like and see where it ends up |
JohnnyoftheWell
03.29.23 | "first album too, not just doppleganger"
Other than the second half of Whacko Jacko, I ain't feeling this at all. Same goes for Protest the Hero - the metric irregularity feels like an erratic import from prog
updated for everything else |
AlexKzillion
03.29.23 | the chariot is certainly more metalcore than mathcore, but i'd also say their first two or three albums in particular are probably more mathy than any post-jane converge and the bulk of etid's discog. |
AlexKzillion
03.29.23 | also norma jean... first 2-3 are def mathcore albums, but the six albums after feels removed enough to maybe not include it??? |
JohnnyoftheWell
03.29.23 | i am unfortunately subscribing to a policy of total norma jean erasure, but can respect the case for a tertiary |
Demon of the Fall
03.29.23 | problem in a lot of these cases is going to be the historic tagging messing everything up, we're gonna need A LOT of votes in some cases |

03.29.23 | gonna relay TDEP and Rolo Tomassi for a full wipe - reckon we'll be okay with the rest as long as everyone DOES THEIR BIT!!!! as the big'uns are only tertiaries |

03.29.23 | the armed..... what are you all replacing with mathcore??? i guess hardcore?
sorta feel like hardcore / noise rock / electronic is okay for them |
Mort.
03.29.23 | personally i feel like electronic is a bit of a naff tag there
if i wanted to browse for electronic music, i do not want to come across the armed. we should not be tagging every rock outfit with keyboards or bleeps and bloops as electronic
if we had ryms influence/genre division then i would tag them as having electronic influence
but they are not an electronic band lets be honest. theyre a very noisy punk band with some electronic texturing |
Mort.
03.29.23 | similarly, the dillinger escape plan has some electronics across their music. i dont want them coming up under electronic charts |
GhandhiLion
03.29.23 | "pyrrhon"
They are tech death with a bit of mathcore influence. ( Psyopus type wacky guitar shit) |
Mort.
03.29.23 | theyre a tech death band with a shit ton of mathcore influence
they barely even do any of pysopus type wacky guitar shit
what the fuck are you on about
go listen to psyopus and then to pyrrhon. |
normaloctagon
03.29.23 | lmaooo |
GhandhiLion
03.29.23 | idk I haven't listened to psyopus in over a year but they are one of the bands that comes to mind when I think of relations
Anyway, I would never call pyrrhon a mathcore band. Would be like calling the last Imperial Triumphant album jazz. |
Mort.
03.29.23 | 'Anyway, I would never call pyrrhon a mathcore band. Would be like calling the last Imperial Triumphant album jazz.'
the tech death to mathcore jump is a shit ton shorter than the tech death to jazz jump but sure buddy |
GhandhiLion
03.29.23 | Sure but I don't see how that effects the comparison. The point is those genres are only hints of their respective albums. |
Mort.
03.29.23 | regardless, rym, wikipedia, mathcore index (im not about to engage in a discussion about the relative merits/reliability of certain sources) and others acknowledge them as being a mathcore band and i would have thought one listen of Happy Victims Creed or Sleeper Agent, or cancer mantra, or a shit ton of their tracks would make it clear theyve got more than enough influence to qualify
theyre not complex in the way ulcerate are who i would most definitely not call mathcore
|
Mort.
03.29.23 | 'The point is those genre are only hints of their respective albums.'
yeah but i dont see how pyrrhon have just a hint of mathcore. i listen to them very regularly (some of their tracks appear on my most listened to yearly) and it seems an integral part of their sound to me |
theBoneyKing
03.29.23 | slowcore when |
GhandhiLion
03.29.23 | Hint might not be the correct word. Perhaps undercurrent? Likewise I would say that the jazz influence is an integral part of that Triumphant albums identity. |

Demon of the Fall
03.29.23 | ‘would you at least agree that mathcore is a better tag for pyrrhon than jazz fusion lol‘
tagged Pyrrhon as mathcore just because it made more sense than jazz fusion, even though I lack the understanding of the mathcore relationship based on my hazy dealings with that band. However, jazz fusion does seem like complete bollocks, so whatever.
would also be happy with the dreaded ‘experimental’ as the third tag 😬 |

03.30.23 | Whatever on this list is still missing mathcore (same goes for nu jazz/glam rock) I will bring to Sowing to fix up tomorrow noon EST, but to shorten said list, keep taggin’
I wanna get these genres out of the way so we can move onto others |
GhandhiLion
03.30.23 | I'll do an instrumental hip hop list rn |

03.30.23 | i have tagged them all as mathcore and tried to counteract the many superfluous hardcore tags
will go through your glam rock list again soon, think ive already done most of it |

goddamit johnny goddamit goddamit |

03.31.23 | mathcore is an angryperson genre
more mathcore
also, I haven't gone through policing these but jfc this is a taglist not a reclist
if you have asked me to put something here that only needed your one single vote to acquire a tag, up it and hike it please |
ArsMoriendi
03.31.23 | I asked Sowing on the meds threads about the harder to tag mathcore bands (like Dillinger/Converge) yell at me if wrong |
JohnnyoftheWell
03.31.23 | Dillinger and Rolo need a tag wipe, as already requested
maybe Converge too. ETID's current tags aren't awful, don't think they're a priority |
ArsMoriendi
03.31.23 | Also phase 1 of mathcore/glam rock/nu jazz is almost done
Phase 2 of instrumental hip hop/disco could use a 3rd genre, maybe something heavy? :P thoughts johnny? |

03.31.23 | Slowcore still not added :[
Groove metal is the only new guitar genre that warrants a list, but someone else can deal with that. Art pop priority bby, gonna need a lot of tag wipes here |
