   Yesterday was a hardcore day. Today is thus a post-hardcore day. Also, sad if Schreifels' latest project is typical of post-post-hardcore.

     @mjgiarlo sounds like a good day to me, then. Where do you stand w/r/t Botch/Coalesce/Converge 'metalcore'?

     @aboyko unfamiliar/unfamiliar/unfamiliar. Do they occupy a sonic space adjacent to nu-core bands like System of a Down etc.?

     @mjgiarlo unfamiliar, so can't comment. "Metalcore" tag gets used, I guess; chaotic HC pedigrees

     @mjgiarlo Googling produces the word "mathcore", which is simultaneously appalling and great

     @aboyko Ah. So I suspect it's just metal-y enough to drive me away. "Math rock," like Battles, is maybe the closest I get. Or Lightning Bolt

     @mjgiarlo I think True Metalheads only mock and shun such stuff. Drive Like Jehu? Dazzling Killmen?

     @aboyko ... I assume I get some free iTunes downloads for having this conversation?
