Metal Core vs Death Core: A Comparison

I just want to be people's favorite metal band. I really care if it's on the death core side or you know like big festival metal show goers you know or even old school fans. That's a little tougher sell especially breakdowns but I think ultimately I'd like to be the band that you're a kid in high school you discover metal. You want something heavier and then you find my band and we're kind of like a gateway. Which I thought was awesome.
