all pure metalcore (not deathcore) I have heard is complete and utter shit

it sounds like groove metal + pop music verse/chorus/verse structure + emo clean singing + terrible attempt at harsh singing

I don't like much metalcore. The only reason I like Killswitch Engage is because Howard doesn't sound like he is screaming out of his asshole like most metalcore vocalists do.

Awwww, it looks like the baby is trying to be tr00

The only metalcore I like is Unearth and God Forbid...

Still Remains and Underoath are not bad, but not my cup of tea...

Metalcore combines metal + hardcore elements, deathcore would be death metal + hardcore...

why would metalcore be the same as deathcore anyway?

I guess technically "metalcore" encompasses all genres of metal mixed with hardcore, but I think everyone thinks of it as melodeath + hardcore, where as deathcore is death metal mixed with hardcore.

People also like to use the term to mean "shit". "Nu-metal" and "Emo" are other terms that have suffered the same fate. Whether the band are any of these three styles is mostly irrelevant apparently.

There is no difference between metalcore and 'deathcore' because metalcore is a blanket term used to describe almost any mixture of modern -core styles and metal. Anyway the best 'metalcore' bands with a large DM/grind influence are Ion Dissonance and Crowpath, stuff like The Red Chord is fine but those two bands are in a different league.

My other favourites are Converge, Keelhaul, Curl Up and Die, Dillinger, Botch, 7 Angels 7 Plagues, (early) Cave In, Taint and Swarm of the Lotus.
