A term used to describe a large variety of modern hardcore/metalcore/deathcore bands who put more thought into T-shirt slogans than they do to a whole album's worth of music. Such bands may have whole albums composed entirely of open note/1st fret breakdowns, rarely venturing from the lowest 2 strings except to emit a discordant screech on the highest 2 strings (see Emmure). These bands are more concerned with appearing "swag" or "hench" than writing an interesting song or two, with the only memorable part of a shitcore song being a violent/misogynistic threat or challenge yelled during a brief pause, eg; FUCK YOU, DIE SLUT, FUCKING DIE YOU SLUT, etc. This phrase will usually appear on the band's merch interspersed with one or more uses of the word "fucking" to highlight how "fucking" serious they are about whatever it was they said. Shitcore bands often confuse excessively low tunings and mashing of open strings for heaviness or talent, often employing 7 or 8 string guitars for low tunings. It should be noted though that said bands often only use these for bragging purposes to their teenage fans, as they only ever use 2 or 3 strings for 99% of their playing. Shitcore is what happens when a mediocre band meets a stupid audience and has a large following all over the world.
