  • What do verses, choruses, intros, and outros have in common? They're not BREAKDOWNS. Here's a video of just the breakdowns. Which genre does it better? You be the judge!

    Deathcore is more stank face but metalcore breakdowns are fun to dance to on occasion. Ik that sounds weird but my favorite kind of breakdowns are groovedowns. So fun to nod your head to. Great video bro! Love options you picked!

      same. not a fan of the recent Lorna Shore breakdowns that seem to be just either pure speed or with gutturals and vocals that seem to be the trend in deathcore 2022. I prefer the type of breakdown in WCAR and BoS Darkbloom (1st breakdown of the song, not the outro breakdown). In short, August Burns Red breakdowns

      true but i feel its also subjective cuz a lotta the time metalcore breakdowns put me to sleep and i struggle to find anh interesting groove but deathcore always keeps me entertained and is more fun to bop to for me. as i write this comment i was still listening to the metalcore then started naturally nodding along to the deathcore

    The thing about Metalcore and Deathcore from someone who loves both:
    Metalcore usually feels somber, in a way, it lets you deal with the pain while deathcore is angry and allows you to deal with your anger. At least that's how I interpret it.
    And of course, you can headbang, mosh and groove to both of them.

    The two genres were a bit easier to distinguish in the past years, imo. Take for example the breakdowns from Blessthefall's "His last Walk" album (for those who want to skip the rest, listen to "A message to the Unknown", "Guys like you make us look bad" - the ending of the track, "Rise up"...). Or some All that Remains ("This calling" - there are vocals but what guitars play is a breakdown), Asking Alexandria's "A prophecy".

    metalcore breakdowns, depending on the band, like Wage War fucking hits hard same with INK. Like any band that can go from BREOOOOOOO to *angelic voice*, then theres DEATHCORE. like deathcore is just yk the breakdown genre. they have the heavier breakdowns (Slaughter to the Prevail, Brand of Sacrifice), the more stank and headbangable ones. personally both genres have their ups and downs but i have to go with deathcore since Demolisher was the first breakdown i listened to.

      Depends what you’re there for. Deathcore in particular has a lot of the gnarliest vocals over the breakdowns and that’s exactly why the guitar parts are simple in those places. But if you feel there are no interesting or complex guitar parts or arrangements in the genre then you’re listening to the wrong deathcore bands for your taste.
