Deathcore

Deathcore is an amalgamation of two musical styles: Metalcore and death metal. While similar to slam death and deathgrind, deathcore typically has muted drumwork as well as a variation on its speed and heaviness. The lyrics may not always be in the death metal vein, but traditional growls may be used. Higher vocals are used as they are in metalcore. Deathcore receives its speed from death metal, and its minimal complexity and breakdowns are attributed to a metalcore influence, though death metal bands have often used breakdowns in the past, as can be heard on Morta Skuld's 1991 demo, Prolong the Agony.

Others, such as the band Abscess, have used the term "deathcore" to describe hardcore punk/death metal hybrids, though these groups have little in common with the deathcore bands of today.
