Dubcore

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unreferenced and speculative article. No substantial sources found on google news search or on pitchfork, RA, NME... basically fails WP:NOTABILITY. - filelake shoe  &#xF0F6;   10:59, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete for now - Google Books found some music-related results but only one of them appears to be relevant for this electronica genre, the second result from the top. Google News found nothing useful and I performed a main Google search as a desperate measure but found nothing useful either. It seems this genre exists but there isn't any significant and reliable evidence to support this article and mentioning "dubcore" at dubstep and metalcore probably wouldn't be the best option either because there wouldn't be any appropriate sources to support this genre exists. At best, this term is probably fairly new and hasn't been widely recognized. SwisterTwister   talk  19:07, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete (1) patently false; Korn is a nu metal or heavy metal band; (2) we almost always delete new musical genre artciles, see WP:OUTCOMES. Bearian (talk) 19:50, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
 * FWIW the reference to Korn was because of their last album which featured Skrillex and Excision as guest producers and was described as "metalstep" by some critics, I added a sentence about this to the dubstep article after nominating this. This name "dubcore" seems pretty unsupported and the whole sound is non-notable at the moment. - filelake shoe  &#xF0F6;   19:56, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete primarily because all the bands mentioned on here will come under a already existing music genre electronicore. A fusion of metalcore, post-harcore and various types of electronic music, including trance, drum and bass and dubstep. This 'Dubcore' had no supporting sources and so just is the creation of a few random people, not journalistic research. Jonjonjohny (talk) 09:52, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
