Deathcore
is an extreme metal subgenre blending death metal’s brutality with metalcore’s breakdowns and hardcore intensity. Emerging in the early 2000s, it features guttural vocals, blast beats, downtuned guitars, and crushing breakdowns. Bands like Suicide Silence, Whitechapel, and Carnifex helped define its sound. Over time, symphonic and technical elements have expanded its scope, keeping deathcore a dominant force in modern heavy music.
