That would be true, but the fact is they're metalcore which means...they suck!

(I'll stop this nonsense now. )

And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I
don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime.
I never said I was frightened of dying.

^ Maybe DEP aren't metalcore. If anything, they're mathcore. But why not simply call them Prog Metal?

BTW: They're not ***core just because their singer is screaming.

To be serious, the reasons for my posts was to jest at the fact that there are so many labels.  What's the point?  As my friend once said, "There are two types of music.  Everything I like is good, and everything else is sh*t."

Erm... Mathcore.. metalcore.. THEY ARE NOISE!!!!! (AT least they fit into the noise subgenre idealy)...

Although not sure what mathcore would be... (Examples  please?) but comparing DEP 2 bands like Killswitch or Biohazard (metalcore & HC).. Well, NOTHING in common...

I don't know any example for mathcore except DEP. I don't like music that is mostly dissonant and void of melody.

What I don't like about the HC bands I hear is the constant screaming and double bass.

IMHO no HC band is better than DT nor LTE. Still I´d rather listen to CP like PF with WYWH and AHM. Or KC with ITCOTCK.....Now, ....WTF have I just written ???

Amazing hardcore band = Clutch



well... not really hardcore, but they have elements of hardcore.  not much screaming, but Black Flag style vocals, with amazing lyrics and funky riffs.  These guys have been one of my favorite bands for a long time.
