Perhaps but it's weird time signatures being applied to rock music that hadn't happened before. Prog bands made the push and then math rock came about when people used even more complex time signatures/chord patterns and even changed time signatures throughout songs. That's a really oversimplified explanation and there's other qualities to it, if you're interested read the Wikipedia article.
That's math rock anyway, mathcore is that combined with hardcore punk.
