Mathcore is a rhythmically complex and dissonant style of metalcore. It was pioneered by bands such as Converge,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Converge biography ) 〕 Coalesce, Botch,〔(Botch - We Are The Romans Review )〕〔(San Francisco Bay Guardian : Article : The Gap's attack on kids )〕 and The Dillinger Escape Plan.〔(TV3 > News > Story > Mathcore band the 'Dillinger Escape Plan' visit NZ )〕 The term ''mathcore'' is suggested by analogy with math rock. Both math rock and mathcore make use of unusual time signatures. Math rock groups such as Slint, Don Caballero, Shellac, Drive Like Jehu and Dazzling Killmen have some influence on mathcore, though mathcore is more closely related to metalcore. Prominent mathcore groups have been associated with grindcore.〔"Contemporary grindcore bands such as The Dillinger Escape Plan () have developed avant-garde versions of the genre incorporating frequent time signature changes and complex sounds that at times recall free jazz."

Access date: September 17, 2008.〕 == History == An early antecedent to mathcore was practiced by Black Flag, in 1984, with the album ''My War'': "Its seven-minute metal dirges and fusion-style time signatures proved too much for many fans".〔Steven Blush, ''American Hardcore: A Tribal History'', "Thirsty and Miserable", Los Angeles: Feral House, 2001, p. 66〕 Many groups from the mathcore scene paid tribute to Black Flag for the album ''Black on Black''.〔Mark Prindle, ''Citizine'' interview with Greg Ginn, June 7, 2003. () Access date: October 8, 2008.〕 In the 1990s, groups now often described as mathcore were grouped together as "noisecore". Kevin Stewart-Panko of ''Terrorizer'' referred to groups such as Neurosis, Deadguy, Cave In, Today Is the Day, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Converge, Coalesce, Candiria, Botch, and Psyopus as described by this label.〔Kevin Stewart-Panko, "The Decade in Noisecore", ''Terrorizer'' no. 75, Feb 2000, p. 22-23.〕 Stewart-Panko described the sound of these bands as a "dynamic, violent, discordant, technical, brutal, off-kilter, no rules mixture of hardcore, metal, prog, math rock, grind and jazz." The portmanteau term "mathcore" emphasizes the influence taken from math rock: ''math'' rock with hard''core''. The earliest known bands to record this hybrid include Rorschach, Starkweather, Botch, and Converge. Throughout the 1990s, several other groups started to emerge: Cave In from Massachusetts, Cable from Connecticut, Coalesce from Kansas City, and Knut from Switzerland. The term mathcore was coined at the release of The Dillinger Escape Plan's 1999 debut album ''Calculating Infinity''. The Dillinger Escape Plan is often considered the "pioneer" of mathcore.〔("Mathcore band the 'Dillinger Escape Plan' visit NZ" ) ''3news.co.nz''.

In the early 2000s several new mathcore bands started to emerge. These bands were rarely described as such, but were commonly related to mathcore pioneers or cited a major mathcore band as an influence. Norma Jean's earlier records are often compared to Converge and Botch.〔Bosler, Shawn.

("Norma Jean - O God The Aftermath (Abacus)" ) ''musicOMH.com''. Retrieved on August 3, 2008.〕〔Heisel, Scott. "Listening Station" ''Alternative Press''. Issue 242 Page 168.〕 Other new mathcore bands that cite older mathcore bands as an influence or are compared to one include Car Bomb,〔 〕 The Locust,〔Ken McGrath.

("The Number Twelve Looks Like You: Put on Your Rosy Red Glasses - You know, the kind Bootsy Collins wears..." ) ''Decibel Magazine''. Retrieved on August 3, 2008.〕 The term is generally applied by journalists, rather than by musicians themselves.
