Firstly, i suggest you take the rose tinted goggles off, metalcore is a fusion that incorporates hardcore punk and heavy metal, all the bands listed are a reflection of this. I've seen half of these bands live and they all go by the same formulaic musical conventions (Heavily distorted riffs, dual leads, blast beats, double bass bursts, high pitched/low pitched intertwined squeals, beatdowns, mid-song interludes), im thinking you either havent heard much of these bands or nothing of them at all OR youre just being a band boy in denial. Theyre all scene for a reason, because they know by adhering to these formula's they'll gain the fans, its a ready made recipe for scene success... coupled, of course, with the fashion.
Secondly, in reference to metalcore, i'd be very hard pressed to find a unique band.
