      As far as I can tell, it’s basically heavier prog, but I’m not sure. While I’m into genres that are tangentially related, prog/math stuff has never really been my scene, so YMMV.

        Not necessarily heavier, just more technical, usually with polyrhythms and funky time signatures.

          Yeah, I guess I was thinking of mathcore like Dillinger Escape Plan and Between the Buried and Me.

              Yeah, I like how it’s a great way to describe a band’s sound to others who are conversant with related genres, but it can be really opaque to newcomers. “Technical progressive space-death” and “blackened funeral doom” are very descriptive, but only if you know the proper context
