metal is like....As I Lay Dying, and The Chariot, but Black Sabbath and them can qualify too, just as old school metal.

I wouldn't say your elitist.
However, when I think of metal As I Lay Dying and The Chariot are not the first bands to come to mind. Usually Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Metallica, Megadeth. Granted metalcore is metal influenced but compared to the bands mentioned above theres no contest as far as them being heavy metal bands (no one can debate whether or not that they are) and all of them are pretty much classic bands. I like metalcore (Lamb of God, Horse the Band, Bullet For My Valentine) but a lot of the bands sound very similar and it gets tiring. Metalcore bands are another group that is looked down upon by many elitist metal fans.
