I dont really like either deathcore or metalcore, I think on the whole they are pretty generic and bands are hard to really distinguish, but if they do have one use it is to acclimatise people to harsher vocals with a generally more melodic backing, which in turn leads to longer term fans of more extreme music. The genres and the bands within seem to have a pretty short shelf life with the exception of a handful of bands, and the fans of these seem to move on eventually. There was a time I couldnt go a day without seeing a BFMV or KSE shirt in the street, that hasnt been the case for a couple of years though and all the kids are wearing Megadeth shirts these days it seems (why I only notice Megadeth, I have no idea).

But, I have yet to read about musicians outside of metalcore being influenced by metalcore. This is my point. |

Metalcore has a few good bands like Parkway Drive, The Chariot, As I Lay Dying, Trivium (early), Bullet For My Valentine were good, not anymore. As for deathcore the only two releases I've liked are Job for a Cowboy's DOOM and Bring Me The Horizon's Count Your Blessings, because they were fresh at the time.

I can listen to metalcore regardless of the hate it gets. It has a sound that I like, it's not too overpowering. Quite a few of my favorite bands fall under this genre, but I won't bother listing them, what's the point really. I like the genre, that's all that should matter.

I think deathcore came along cause people were already getting tired of metalcore. That being said, metalcore has much more to offer in general than deathcore. The only deathcore bands that I hear these days that are any good are the ones that are incorporating more and more old school death metal elements and losing the oversimplified Hatebreed-wannabe-every-song-is-just-an-excuse-for-a-breakdown-****. Which kind of defeats the purpose of creating a new genre doesn't it?

I'm sorry but I fail to see how Silent Civilian is different from other metalcore. I listened to the track "The Song Remains Un-Named" on youtube and heard the similar formula of Iron Maiden dueling guitars coupled with pinch harmonics, along with a harsh vocal-clean vocal dynamic.
