No. They always had both deathcore and death metal tendencies, now they've mostly dropped the deathcore parts so its mostly death metal left.
You people forget:
Deathcore = The downsyndrome son of metalcore and....more metalcore.
Metalcore = The downsyndrome son of melodic death metal and screamo.
I next to never hear any hardcore influence in metalcore/deathcore, so I don't know where people get that. The only hardcore bands I ever find core kids that like are Hatebreed and Earth Crisis, and both those bands suck dick as opposed to good hardcore.
Boy you just love to stir shit up don't you.
Duff or dalkani? Ah screw it, they both love to do that.

Damn, it almost sounds like a requirement to hate every mainstream band here. I like Dimmu Borgir, Cradle of Filth, Pantera and Metallica, problem? And I even like some Nightwish and Job for a Cowboy. I love Lamb of God and Machine Head. Now, what are you going to do?
Mainstream doesn't necessarily mean shit.
DB and COF is just trendie "LOL SYMPHONIC LOL GOTHIC DEATH METALZ"
Lamb OF God is basically borderline metalcore, people just call them groove metal to feel better than themselves.
Pantera's 80's stuff along with cowboys from hell is great, but vulgar display onwards is shit.
JFAC is not and never was metal.
Machine Head's first two albums are kickass and their latest album is pretty good too, just avoid everything in between.
Nightwish is great, Dark Passion Play excluded.
metallica's first four albums are awesome.
Probably the most popular band among users of this club, Opeth, is pretty damn mainstream and most of us love them nonetheless.
It's not that we hate mainstream metal bands, it's that we hate maisntream SOUNDING metal bands.
Thrash Metal:
Evile
Why the fuck is Evile your TOP recommendation for thrash metal? That's like if Dragonforce was my top recommendation for power metal.
Seriously, what the fuck?
Meanstreak
Why is this recommened under thrash? They're not thrash, they;re traditional metal.
Morbid Saint (There is some Death Metal elements in here)
Death metal = / = thrash metal.
Sure the first two MA albums are borderline thrash, but it doesn't change the fact they're death metal.
I agree with most of your death metal recommendations though.

Same goes for you :) You are "the" power metal douche in here. I assume that you realise it's the most cheesy and silly genre of metal, right? Don't bullshit on AW, especially if you like guys who dress in armors and sing about dungeons and princesses with their fagsetto voices.
I never said I dislike them because of cheesiness, I LOVE cheese in my metal.
I dislike them because they just generally suck.
And they're not black metal, what the fuck are you on?
