The so called "deathcore" purists, if they can be called that, hate it. If you listen to their new album "Instrinsic" it does beg the question, are you listening to deathcore, or is it something else? Dare I say, could this be "progressive deathcore", or "ambient deathcore", or even "post-deathcore"?
