No problem, but don't get me wrong... there are some legitimately good metalcore bands out there that do a lot more than just the same Iron Maiden guitars/breakdowns combo such as Converge, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Genghis Tron (I'd call them metalcore), and even Johnny Truant I like. They may use breakdowns a wee bit, but they at least recognize that they're not a metal band, they're a metalcore band, so they don't use a bunch of other techniques to sound more "br00tal".
