The market value on metalcore/hardcore definitely capped off in 2013. After that it became completely over-saturated and lost any of it's charm.
It is now 2017, and I see bands like this (link below) pop up on my Facebook feed all the time. Tons of shitty local hardcore/metal bands popping up all over the place.
Who is autistic enough to keep making this shit?

Yea everyone knows this
Same thing happened to nu-metal, bands kept popping up well into the late 00s.
It'll fizzle out soon don't stress.

>denies that music has market value
>is fucking retarded
If something has cultural value, it has market value.
People were showing up to Death Grips shows because it was something new and fresh that the market did not already have.
If you aren't making music on a serious academic level you might as well just make oversaturated metalcore if you genuinely enjoy it. This means probaly like 99.99% of musicians btw.

You're not going to find interesting music through Facebook, ever.

Does any genre of metal have market value at this point?
I see technical deathcore/death metal has some market value. I hear a lot of people are going out to that Slaughter to Prevail tour

Metalcore died because the scene kids grew up and found hardcore and now hardcore is the new metalcore, emo is the new pop-punk, and shitty blood on the dance floor stuff is still there.

I even think Hardcore is dying though.
I know a lot of people like that new Incendiary album, but I don't think Hardcore is going anywhere. It has already capped off and is on the way down. That melodic hardcore band "Hundreth" released a fucking post-rock album and said they don't even like hardcore anymore.
What will the next trend in heavy music be? I was honestly surprised how many people Djent converted to heavy music fans.
