Mathcore

Mathcore is an intense, technically complex subgenre of hardcore punk and metalcore, known for its dissonant chords, fast tempo, and unpredictable changes in time signatures and rhythm. It often features chaotic, sometimes atonal guitar work, coupled with abrasive, screamed vocals and a heavy emphasis on extremely technical and intricate drumming. The genre draws inspiration from the extremities of grindcore, jazz fusion, and progressive metal, resulting in a sound that is both aggressive and cerebral. Shows are characteristically frenetic, matching the music's unyielding energy and often experimental nature. Bands in this genre, like The Dillinger Escape Plan and Converge, are acclaimed for their musicianship and the demanding technical proficiency required to perform their compositions.
