Goodra 531 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 I mean I listen to it two but I like a lot of other stuff as well as metalcore. It's even easy to play (most of the time it's just the bass playing a low D (or other deep) note and the guitar hitting the same chord along with it, even the screaming is easy, depending on if your an inhale screamer, exhale screamer, or both) and Ide play it if my band wanted to but they don't (were pretty multi diverse when it comes to music, we play stuff from Rush to Metalica to Coldplay to 30 seconds to mars to guns and roses). I mean, most of the time (I'm not hating on it, I'm just pointing out something) it honestly just sounds like a bunch of immature noise and a screamer talking about how his life sucks (when in reality, it doesn't). So why is this genre so popular (again I'm not hating, I'm just into other genres as well as metalcore)? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chill Mists (Chilly) 801 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 Almost every teen I know likes rap. I'm not really into metalcore and I know no one who is. I'm more of a heavy, thrash, industrial metal or hard rock kind of guy. 5 Brushing your hair is for people who care and someone who cares is not I, I'll jump off a bridge and then fill up your fridge,and best pony is Fluttershy.

Bow Heart 84 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 I only know like, two or three people that listen to metalcore. And one's a girl. Granted, all three are about my age (16). I sometimes listen to it, but it's more of a "It's cool until I've heard 20-30 minutes of it" kind of relationship.

NeverNeverland 1,940 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 (edited) -16 Year Old -Listens to Thrash Metal -Doesn't like Metalcore -Takes offense Because in a world where its all come down to stupid lyrics about either girls, drugs, becoming number one, metal needs to have a sub genre that focuses on the stereotypes of Heavy Metal, and like in mainstream media, all the people who think that by listening to it makes them think that they're totally tough and brutal and METUL, when in reality they're not, they're just a consumer buying into a shitty trend that seems to have plagued a genre that was once pure, now bastardized quite a bit. TL:DR - Metalcore is a genre of music created by marketers who wanted to cash in on Metal in the 90's for one last time, and instead made more of a profit then they intended. I feel old. I have never heard of metalcore before. You'd be better off not knowing. Edited June 6, 2012 by NeverNeverland 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DashPony 359 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 I have wondered the same thing. I have heard a few metalcore songs that I actually enjoy, but the majority seems to be horrible. I just figured I didn't like it cause i'm old and always preferred classic metal But really, I think it's because it's whats popular. Kind of like why so many teens listen to Justin Beiber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nah 3,182 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 I'm not all that into metalcore. Or thrash, or industrial, I like Dubstep, techno, and house. Hate Rap music with all my guts, hip hop sucks too, and most Christian music that tries to imitate popular songs. Yet, kids at my school think I'm into metalcore just cause I hate rap. So I'm a bit iffish on metalcore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letterone 1,204 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 No, not all male teens like metalcore. The only ones who do are the kinds who like to think their cool and crap. I, for one, am a 16-year-old dude who likes alternative rock, electronic, and (sometimes) hardcore. Very rarely do I like metalcore. The only time I will like it is if it's actually interesting. Bullet For My Valentine? Nope. Attack Attack? Maybe. Mathcore, on the other hand, is FREAKING AMAZING. I mean... GOOD LORD the epic riffs! So yeah. Metalcore sucks. Every other -core genre is okay. Especially mathcore. 1 It's ironic how I fall just to get back up again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeverNeverland 1,940 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 (edited) So yeah. Metalcore sucks. Every other -core genre is okay. Especially mathcore. I'd like to disagree. I hate any kinda metal, i dont see how it gives you joy when it's all about killing, sex, drugs, and other dark shit This is the reason why a lot of Metal heads hate Metalcore. They've bastardized how bands are able to do songs on dark stuff. And its not the idea that the person is talking about sex and drugs that we like (save that for the rap sucks arguments) but its about the aggression and feel we get from it. Also, Prog, Power, Symphonic and Folk Metal. Aggressive, yes. Dark, rarely. Talks about any of the above?

Page.Turner 940 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 Anyone remember the week that screamo was cool? BREE BREEEEEEEE! Anyway, I am honestly not a fan of metalcore, death metal, metal, etc... or punk rock, really. I prefer music that isn't a cacophony of notes followed by talk-singing or screaming. It gives me a bit of a headache! Especially when everyone is playing in a double/triple forte and... there's no harmony to it. I dunno! When I was a teenager I was into bands like Hawthorne Heights. *shudder* People change, tastes change, it just depends on the person. In ten years the very same kids might be more into country, for all anyone knows! ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letterone 1,204 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 I'd like to disagree. I'd like to disagree with your disagreement. ...and kinda fix what I said earlier. MOST metalcore sucks.

In fact, most of it isn't about that kind of thing at all. Not trying to start an argument or anything. Just wanted to voice my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nefarious 195 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 Every teen/kid likes metalcore?? lolno.

WildCard 1,037 June 6, 2012 Share June 6, 2012 I am not a fan of metal at all. I like the "Classic" bands like Metallica a lot, but this Deathcore, Black Metal isn't my cup of tea. I am not really a fan of screaming, growling and I just can't identify with the lyrics and music. I am more into Rock(Classic/Modern), Punk(and all of it's subgenres), a bit psychadelic, some Dubstep/Electronic and of many other genres a bit. 1 OC was made by Princess Ariona.

AnonyPoni 564 June 7, 2012 Share June 7, 2012 I don't really care for Metalcore I will say that I like heavy metal, especially the symphonic metal Classical FTW I'm pretty spread out in my music tastes, but I guess I like (for the most part) Classical, alternative, heavy metal-ish rock (that makes sense, right?) Thanks to Ponies, I also like electronic and eurobeat I used to like Country, but this teacher I didn't like would play songs that were REALLY Country. One song she liked was about a guy's Tractor! WHO SINGS ABOUT TRACTORS!? I don't really listen to country now... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RippedOffMattress 314 June 7, 2012 Share June 7, 2012 (edited) Every kid's into metal? My High School of rap and pop begs to differ. But anyway, I'm 15 and a huge metal fan. I don't care what type, it's all good to me. But I gotta say, your description of metalcore didn't at all fit with Trivium. You must be confusing metalcore with DEATHcore or something.

Haven Celestii 9,385 June 7, 2012 Share June 7, 2012 Killswitch Engage is a decent band..... I think they are my only Metalcore band on my ipod, i havent checked everyone's background though so i could be wrong. I know I got one BFMV song. Though I listen to just about any kind of rock/metal as well as rap/hip-hop/r&b and some electronic genres like dubstep, Jump/Hardstyle, DNB. Other that, I have to say that not every male teen likes it. Kind of a big assumption to make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
