Because metal only got "good" when it started to be influenced by punk and hardcore, and the point of early metalcore was to combine both genres in a more direct way, now, add decent musicianship and there you go

>mathcore
A more faggot djent. Both fucking blow. Best metal subgenre is what dudes like Midnight, Eldritch and Power Trip are doing.
Carter Diaz
Black metal, death metal or blackened death metal
Camden Perry
Good answer, tbqh my favorite stuff in both genres tends to be the stuff that walks the line between them - mathcore, "neocrust" (crust/sludge), deathgrind, etc. The intensity of punk with a lot of the progressiveness of metal instrumentation.
>A more faggot djent.
lol what a retarded opinion, though Midnight and Power Trip are cool bands. Still, neither has anything on Converge
David Gutierrez
Easy but decent answer too, blackened death is such a great sound, whether it's "war metal" stuff like Revenge/Archgoat/Beherit/Blasphemy, or more polished stuff like Behemoth.
Adam Lewis
>best
everything that starts with "technical", "progressive" or "black(ened)"
>worst
everything else
Jeremiah Sullivan
Converge is the logical conclusion to metalcore.

I like Tool. What type of metal is that?
Aaron Brooks
Progressive metal right?
Jack Perry
It's stoner rock.
Charles Sanders
half of those are not even metal
Benjamin Stewart
fair enough, I think the appeal of metal especially these days is that it's a lot of the most experimental, ambitious, and creative stuff happening in rock. It's interesting to consider these tags in the context of mathcore too, because mathcore is basically the technical/progressive side of metalcore. I'm so divided on metalcore, because I love the early stuff, mathcore, and the stuff that crosses over with genres like crust, while hating the "melodic metalcore" buttrock crap and most deathcore.

For me it's the crescendo in The Broken Vow
Landon Nguyen
lol probably, though they were also one of the earliest bands in the genre
I think one of the really cool and appealing things about them is that watching them, it's almost like watching a jazz band, they're so experimental and dynamic. It seems like there's also something weirdly jazzy about Fugazi.
Jayden Gonzalez
Nice! Such an insane, great album
Gavin Brown
That's a good point actually. Converge is those once in a lifetime bands, you know? Generational talent that manages to churn out hit after hit and still keep it fresh
Nathan Smith
Symphonic
Lucas Price
People like you only like these genres because you feel they are "for" people like you
Blake Adams
No, you're projecting. I also love sludge like Eyehategod, war metal like Blasphemy, grindcore like Napalm Death, doom like Novembers Doom and Esoteric, and drone like The Angelic Process. I just think mathcore is a cool sound. You're a very stupid person.
Owen Brown
Death and black metal made between 1985 and 1995.
>poser likes poser music
like pottery
Levi Hughes
Everything you just named is hot with hipster fans, though
Brody Butler
>poser names every single genre that they stereotypically listen to apart from atmoshit
Your point, faggot?
Gabriel Collins
What's not poser shit then? I'm sorry you have an IQ below 70, but Pantera has always sucked.
