Metal VS Metalcore 

***** No problem. Your videos are genuinely awesome!

***** They did cover Holy Diver, but I think KSE tried to remain close to the original.

***** Although the highlight of the video for me was the pretty solid metalcore covers of metal classics.

stillborn007 Yeah, I reckon a mix of both would have done better. Original idea was cool though

stillborn007 my though exactly during this video

With just a little bit of pizzazz on the guitar part and the occasional drop tuning

@@EETDUK I dunno dude.. I play the drums and never really got into regular old school metal because of this reason

Tech death metal laughs in weird tempos

Doubling down on every note is still doing nothing imo.

Jojo reference everywhere

Enter Sandman is thrash and Maiden is a part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, not technically traditional metal like Sabbath and Dio

I don't get it.

AlainDenmark Yeah, Toran is totally right, you like it or not, Pantera was very important for metalcore.

+Toran Dulaney This is true unfortunately (imo). Pantera probably did it almost single handedly as well. However Faith No More inspired Nu Metal and you can't hate them for it.

I think Sepultura inspired nu-shit far more than FNM but still Sepultura with Max was great.

Same here, I dont give a fuck about what style it is. Is it good, its good.

lol metal genres remembers me of tumblr genres

@@darkmarden7979 It's just easier, when you're looking for very specific music or trying to understand trends and evolution, subgenres based on sound, scene, and time period are important. For example, I can make So-Cal punk, but it wouldn't have the exact same sound as the 80's scene like Wasted Youth and Black Flag and The Middle Class.

Well spoken

@@movessmitt6427 yeah, but what fucks up with everything is that people keep creating new unnecessary genres. There is literally a genre called parrot metal

+Glider FS thank you so much

Thanks, dude.

You forgot Crazy Train, Run to the Hills, and Symphony of Destruction m8

The band thing is that a lot of emos posers think that they love metal and they only listen metalcore like Bmth o Asking alexandria and all this emo crap music...

Agustin Rodriguez I like Asking Alexandria and Bring Me The Horizon. Guess what? I also like Slayer, Megadeth, Metallica, Parkway Drive, Thy Art is Murder, Suicide Silence, Born of Osiris, Rings of Saturn , Slipknot, Motionless in White, System of a Down, Marilyn Manson, Whitechapel, ect. Just because someone likes a certain band, doesn't mean they like only "emo shit."

just because you don't like breakdowns doesn't mean its emo lol gotta respect the classics but theres othin wrong with metalcore etc

+Agustin Rodriguez I love metal core and old school metal but I'm not emo and the music isn't emo an emo screamo band would be alesana but metalcore bands aren't usually emo it's just the kids who listen to it lol

Metalcore is my favorite music genre and in term of clothing and attitude I'm not emo at all. But I'm not going to lie, metalcore is emo as fuck (but what's the issue with that?).

Right!?! 😍

IDK BUT DID YOU HEAR SYMPHONY OF DESTRUCTION? THAT SOUNDED EVEN BETTER IN THE METALCORE VER. AT 2:36

i disagree

@@laurachiriac1336 no, the original symphony of destruction sounds better if you ask me.

@@straleus No, I meant that the metalcore ver. of Symphony of Destruction sounds better than the part he/she mentioned...

Do you mean that whole metal genre is oldschool or only in this video?

hyppyrotta71 I would declare that their are many modern metal sub-genres and many oldschool metal sub-genres. I'm not sure what metal alone as genre really is. I actually use it as an synonymous for heavy metal but maybe thats just me. But let get me this straigt: modern ≠ better

hyppyrotta71 here we got classic riffs against modern style so

Moody Really, that is the point that so many can't understand and divide the metal in two sides. Mens with that thinking need the metal, that bring a message of union, peace and symphaty between all the kinds of metallers; death, heavies, cores, alternatives, symphonics, cristians, satanics, etc. Together, the new generations may link together the metal subgenres in one mass of metal, and fight together against the true enemy: the junk pop and the reggeaton (Insert image of any politic idol here)

Moody I prefer the percussion style of metalcore or deathcore over the old stuff.

Izaiah Avila I think that it is the point to have the most recognizable metal songs, because everyone knows how they are played. and then the difference between 'Metal and Metalcore' is more noticeable

Tommy Gordon Are you stupid or something. Killswitch Engage did a cover of Holy Diver. The song is originated by Dio.

Tommy Gordon Delete your comment, please.

Marcos Moutta coz it is:D

Just be thankful you didn't go to high school in the 80s when you could get your ass kicked for talking shit on metal. We didn't play back in the day. It was SUPER cliqued in the days of Master Of Puppets and Reign In Blood.

Yea it's ass, just u do u, ppl who call metalcore (and stuff like for example disturbed as well) pussy metal or just not metal are elitists most of the time

You must have the big dumb because there is three total comments of people disliking metalcore and more of them are insulting people for not liking core.

@@dominicmcleod1890 did you even read the comment?

DOn't be open minded for the sake of being called open minded.Open minded you have personal taste and can discern what genre you like and what you dislike.There is nothing wrong in having personal taste and feel that the genre you like is superior to another

Young and stupid

Haha you're probably right.

I'm with you there man, I'm also young and stupid

I agree tho, Metalcore is much more beefy and technical.. I like it

Exactly why I enjoy metalcore and deathcore and never cared for “metal” or heavy metal, or death metals. The drumming is sick and the riffs are basically eargasms.

Metal is boring Af. Metalcore has always been the shit.

I feel as if the only people who hate Metalcore are 60 years old or are to stubborn to even give it a chance. And people like you are the reason. Why nobody likes metal. Judgmental ass wipes.

Use something original

Steven King I eat everything on an apple, except for the stem. So uh, some people like the core, some don't.

I like your description.

Yeah that one is metalcore for the guitar and also metalcore for the drums lol

@@Bankable2790 no I think you got the comment wrong because metal has better guitars and metalcore has better drums... Try to read the comment again

Alexis Harper same actually! 😏 Some had some "decently funny comments" keep scrolling down and you should find some fairly interesting comments, and discussions.

Lauren Costanzo I feel as though it just has more polyrythyms in it but it's still ok

i cant take you seriously with that icon omg

Just drinking my wine

I don't know, man! I came to the comments wondering what's so bad about metalcore? I really like metalcore and it sounded good to me in this comparison video too. It sounded at least just as good a regular metal but had rapid kick pedal action, which I always love in music. Anyone able to explain to us?? D:

These comments are made by stubborn hasbeen bitches that cannot fathom the fact that this shit is EVOLVING by going way more intense and heavier by the sound. I started out with metal and it is Just too lightsounding for me by now. Fuck the continuous metal riffs the whole song. Metalcore, deathcore, djent, they all vary by song and not just verse-refrain-verse-refrain.

Henar Heinleht Metal isn't heavy enough? lol what type of metal are you listening to. I can definitely recommend some fucking heavy bands

Metalcore stems from Hardcore Punk not Metal

Because it is just bands that were hardcore mixing in metal, similar to a jazz band trying to mix in rock elements.

+Dylan Daino sadly most of them wont accept that metalcore has that roots. Im not saying one is better but they will always deny the fact that most metalcore players started playing with emo bands and transitioned to metal, hence they could never hide that distinctive sound that emo and metalcore both have.

+Greg Rodriguez III what the fuck is emo?

SuperMaki Waffles how fucking old are you? or where the fuck have you been? emo isnt a thing anymore and I haven't heard anyone use hat word since like 2007 and I been around the music scene since 2005 to present.

i mean the genre hasn't done anything new since 2010. it deserves to be made fun of. its a bunch of bands just trying to sound like each other.

+Lavaz666 yeah I agree matal is way better

Ya metal sounds like satan pulled out his vocal cords and put them into a pickup slot and plugged it in.

MobileDecay This "Crappy" music is the birthplace of metal. You don't have to like it, at least respect it. While newer selections elaborated on the genre, this is the default. Without a default, no other branches could exist.

TheAwkwardDragon2013 I think he meant that metalcore sucks not metal itself.

TheAwkwardDragon2013 Yeah I was talking about metalcore. Lol. =)

Then horray. Flame war avoided successfully avoided. MobileDecay

***** Hey man how about doing the opposite? Making metalcore songs into metal and comparing.

No one. I mean NO ONE fucks with Dimebags legacy in music to this day\m/

Nobody fucks with Pantera...

he just didn't know how to transform it in metalcore, too much different style

He didn't want to make the song different out of respect.

Don't be an idiot, think about it, Do metalcore fans ever go around saying they're more brutal than cannibal corpse? no they don't, Maybe in your head, but not reality.

+THECHI7LDUDE22 Well that's weird because Cannibal Corpse isn't just "Metal" like expressed in this video.

prepubescent girls can make heavier music than the average metalcore band, and it would probably sound better to...

Don't wanna be that guy that corrects you when w band the wrong genre but as a metalcore fan I need to defend it.. Cannibal corpse is not metalcore.. And saying it is brings shame to metalcore.. Idk what genre it is but its shit. Btw I love both genres in this vid

you didn't just say metal is way heavier, or heavier at all. the heavier metal it gets, the more hardcore it gets making it metalcore. you must've gotten all knowledge put into that comment from the video alone

Alan Vochinsky also looks like Joey Belladonna from Anthrax

lifesagrave dig it Fair enough

Imagine not knowing that trash is a genre and reading this

I prefer Groove metal cuz it maintained the agressiveness of thrash and played in a slower yet heavier mid tempo scale and added breakdowns in the mix, Metalcore have breakdowns too but the melodic chorus are too cookie cutter for me, I barely like it

i would like this but you're on the magic number

Nick Wick try deathcore.

Now I want the full version so bad :D

Me too man. Something to make for myself maybe

Kevin SehrWichtig more people should think like you

Kevin SehrWichtig yes because it is hardcore or sth with some occasional metal influences and no metalcore will never win!!!

Kevin SehrWichtig my thoughts exactly.

Metal 60%-Metalcore 40%. Learn your math bruh.

Ikr!!

No, because Pantera is groove metal

The point is, it's a very narrow comparison of what constitutes 'Metal'.

also Megadeth (the last one, the song is called symphony of destruction) is thrash metal

They had several thrash songs and a groove song. Besides, modern metalcore is more hardcore than metal. And how is it a narrow comparison? Metal is a massive genre of music, metalcore has a foot in each world of metal and hardcore, and to be perfectly honest the majority of metalcore bands have both feet in hardcore and sometimes stick their toes into metal, but that doesn't make them entirely metal or hardcore. Metalcore isn't metal, it isn't hardcore, it's a fusion and it's own genre.

And if you look at what defines metal music, metalcore shows very little comparison. "the bands that created heavy metal developed a thick, massive sound, characterized by highly amplified distortion, extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and overall loudness" where as metal lacks distortion often times, completely erases solos, beats are often chugging, 0-0-0-0-0 and carbon copies of one another, and while metalcore can be loud, it often loses some of its power when you play it loudly. When I blast a metalcore song, the instruments often sound bashed together and out of place. That's just my opinion, but you see how metalcore doesn't fit into metal, nor does it fit into hardcore. It's just metalcore.

You should check out Rings of Saturn. They might chanfe you're mind. They're super technical.

Ethan Garrison i noticed lol. I checked them out. Can't really get into it but thanks for the suggestion man

SuperSoldierADHD here's a suggestion... For Today-Fight the Silence now that's a real metalcore band

YES ^^^

Julius C ugh for today..

Dio all the way

Isaac spohn And much much blander in terms of musicianship.

Try Jinger- Pisces.

...yeahhhhh "a lot more energy"... Clearly you don't know thrash or power metal. Metalcore is a bunch of heartbroken pussies screaming and whining in a mic about how sad some thot made them. They are ALL shit. Not one good metalcore band exists because in order to be metalcore, you have to suck and play like absolute shit.

HeavyMetalBreakdown1611 So you're just basically assuming that bands like Architects or While She Sleeps are shit as well ? Ikr that not everyone likes e.g BMTH or BVB or whatever bands you have on your mind, but ffs metalcore doesn't consist of only two bands, there are many good metalcore bands

Exactly.. Killswitch, Trivium, Bullet.., etc. are true metalcore.. Not some Pierce the Veil bs

I like metalcore but you are actually right about that. Metalcore bands usually only last a few years before they break up or fade away, but metal bands stay around for years, decades even.

TheUmbrellaCorpX7 And how many of those bands are still around today or going on strong? Very few. Metalcore's prevalence today depends heavily on the more popular, modern bands like Of Mice & Men and Issues to keep it going. I like metalcore but the bands quickly come and go. It's very rare for a band to last more than 5 or 6 years.
