Well that's because Gorguts are true old school death metal, and metalcore bands are..well..metalcore.

And we all know that metalcore actually means shitcore.

@findingphunc Gorguts is pretty much in a class of their own, but if you long for well-composed but grotesquely strange death metal - and by that I do NOT mean Necrophagist, who are great musicians that have devoted themselves to boring music - I strongly suggest you check out: Acerbus, Algophobia, Atrocity (early), Carbonized, Creepmime, Demilich, Disaffected, Gigantic Brain, Into Oblivion, Kralizec, Lykathea Aflame, Natron, Obliveon, Oppressor, Sentenced, !T.O.O.H.!, Torchure, Transgressor,

Recently discovered this band and I already love them to death, glad they r re releasing this monstrous masterpiece parallel to this years long-overdue release. I've shown this band to almost ALL my metal friends and their reactions are no better then "Meh..." so I say fuck them, fuck them right in the ear! Because you guys reading this shit know what i'm fucking saying here saying how good these guys are

@soranaru Metalcore is a fusion genre, and thus doesn't really properly belong in either metal or hardcore, although they tend to lean one way or the other. And while I don't like BTBAM, I will concede that they're obviously very technically skilled musicians, but that aspect is really hyped. There are a ton of young and virtuosic musicians. Shawn Lane could play circles around them at 17, when he stopped honing his technique any further. And he was in constant pain from psoriatic arthritis.

@soranaru (cont.) since I really enjoy a lot of stuff metal elitists would scoff at. Metal is a comparatively small genre in the stuff I listen to, although I've recently (last couple of months) gotten into sludge metal and post-metal in a big way. And I enjoy a lot of punk and punk-derived music as well (post-punk and goth, No Wave, hardcore, noise rock, crust punk, older and/or non-shitty post-hardcore and emo). Metalcore isn't inherently bad; it's just not metal. (cont.)

[HolyKatana]

@soranaru I consider them to be prog metalcore. They've been moving away from the metalcore aspects of their music since Colors, but I still feel that they're best categorized as that, along with similar (and, IMHO, better) bands like The Human Abstract and Protest the Hero. I also made that comment several months ago, back when a forum I'm on (*coughcoughUGcoughcough*) was going through a BTBAM fellation period, and I was getting sick of it. I'm actually not a metal elitist or anything, (cont.)

[soranaru]

@HolyKatana Sorry to break it to you, but BTBAM are metal whether you like them or not.
