Killswitch is Metalcore
Bring Me the Horizon is Deathcore
Slipknot is good but I agree Vol 3 and after sucks.
Alesana is Screamo, not Metal.
Silverstein is Screamo and Punk.
BlesstheFall is Screamo
Underoath is Hardcore and Screamo
Don't rip on Flyleaf just because their lead singer is a girl.
Get your genres right before you start ripping on bands dude. Some of them are Metal bands but doesn't mean they suck. Death Metal is the crap Metal that nobody likes. I mean seriously, have you ever truly listened to Cannibal Corpse? It's a damn guy roaring in a Microphone, it's pure shit. So don't even post Death Metal bands that do that shit up there as "good bands", maybe only Melodic Death Metal that actually has a beat and sometimes has descent vocals.
Lol? You state death metal is crap, cannibal corpse is crap, then why not amaze us with some videos of you playing such mindless crap. Quite honestly I'd love to see you attempt to play the scales incorporated within many death metal songs. By all means play any of these songs and truly establish how "crappy' death metal is.

You insist death metal lyrics are crap, yet you still find juvenile hardship lyrics appeasing. Lets compare how just crappy death metal lyrics are, shall we?
Death Metal
The dominion of Seker
Barren desert of eternal night
Shunned by Ra
Behind the gate
Aha-Neteru, the wastelands of Seker
Eldest lord of impenetrable blackness
Death god of Memphis
He of the darkness and decay of the tomb
He of Rosetau, the mouth of the passage to the underworld
Closely guarded by terrible serpents
Who careth not for his own cult of worshippers
SLipknot
I won't-be the inconsequential
I won't-be the wasted potential
I can make it-as severe as I can
Until you realize
You'll never take a stand
It isn't, just a one-sided version
We've dealt, with a manic subversion
I won't, let the truth be perverted
And I won't leave another victim deserted
mmm, can't you just taste the angst?
Death Metal
Passed down from self-induced fantasy
Turn a page to justify
Conjuring power - It opens wide
On your seventh day
Is that how it's done?
Twisting your eyes to perceive
All that you want
To assume from ignorance
Inflicting wounds with your cross-turned dagger
Inside crystal mountain
Evil takes its form
Inside crystal mountain
Commandments are reborn
Quite honestly, the stuff YOU listen to is plain old regurgitated crap. Nothing more than unoriginal talent bound on implementing redundant themes within their lyrics. If it isn't the lack of original riffs it sure as hell the lack originality.
