The reason I don't like it is perfectly simple.
If I listen to metal I want punishing riffs & for lack of a better term ... heaviness.
If I listen to hardcore I want rawness & attitude.
Now I don't know much about the genre, only what Darkest Hour forced me to listen to but i'm assuming that it combines the two, hence it's name.
Some bands managed to combine the two taking the qualities I enjoy from the two genres, Napalm Death, Electro Hippies & Extreme Noise Terror spring to mind. But from what I have heard of the genre it's far to slickly produced for my liking & sounds more like who can solo the fastest while grunting over generic riffs.
Basically it's lacking in everything I look for in hardcore & metal.
