So a girl walks into a pub. She's startled by an obnoxious assault of noise. The sheer battery on her ears came from a band rocking out with eyes shut and nostrils flaring. Confident that there was a technical glitch, she asked the band to do a sound check. At which point, the guitarist introduced her to Mathcore.
Mathcore is characterized by unusual time signatures, rhythmically complex instrumentation and punctuated staccato. Plus, the vocals are screamed. It uses algebra to demonstrate the technical aspect of the music and is quite an accomplishment for metal-geeks. For the rest of us, it's unpleasant, loud and kinda scary.
The girl walked home that night somewhat saddened after having heard the sound of evil.
