死亡金属的歌词相比更加晦涩难懂,很不口语化,他们会有意识的使用许多艰深的词汇使歌词更加不通俗。以下举一例Aborted的The Chondrin Enigma的一段:
Amputated
- Stumps of pounded beef
Consumed - Sodomite cheeks in a composting brew
Amputated
- Festering pounded meat
Consumed - Extracted malformations secrete
(什么鸟东西,乱七八糟不知所云)
而且死亡金属的歌词多以描写为主,对场面,气氛,行为的描述。相比之下,死核的歌词相当通俗平易近人,非常口语化,以下举一例WhiteChapel的Thisis Exile的一段:
They walk theearth
This is fucking exile
This world is ours and we will not stand still
This world is ours and we will not stand still
The dead will never rest
想说什么一目了然。而且不像死亡金属乐于描写,死核在歌词中更乐于表达想法,这应该和朋克这种愤青音乐的传统有很大关系。
极端音乐的发展应该是70s 大不列颠金属新浪潮-80s Heavey Metal-80S Thrash Metal- 90s Death Metal- 90S Black Metal-90S Melodic Death Metal -20S Nu-Metal - 20S Metalcore- 20S- DeathCore
