'''Metalcore''' is a subgenre of [[Heavy Metal]] that combines [[Thrash Metal]] with [[Hardcore Punk]], and sometimes takes a more melodic approach to the songs than thrash. It is characterised by gratuitous use of the [[Metal Scream]], as well as breakdowns. Lots and lots of breakdowns (although due to, ahem, certain bands, this attribute has been [[Flanderized]] a bit). If you're not in the know, a "breakdown" is when the music kind-of slows down to induce moshing or "throwing down"...or something like that. Modern bands often tend to mix it up with clean vocals and melodic riffs (see Melodic metalcore below).
