R&P: The battle of -core bands (Part 2)?

I know this is probably going to be the most hated question on R&P, but whatever... I'm bored again :P I will try to pick out the most popular bands from each genre so y'all can be familiar with them :)

(Modern) Post-hardcore:

Of Mice & Men vs. Woe, Is Me?

Dream On, Dreamer vs. Sienna Skies?

My Ticket Home vs. Confide?

Our Last Night vs. Paddock Park?

Close To Home vs. Before Their Eyes?

Post-hardcore/Screamo:

Glassjaw vs. Thursday?

La Dispute vs. Touche Amore?

Portraits Of Past vs. City Of Caterpillar?

Orchid vs. Saetia?

Hot Cross vs. Circle Takes The Square?

Hardcore:

The Carrier vs. Life Long Tragedy?

Have Heart vs. Defeater?

The Effort vs. Ruiner?

Modern Life Is War vs. Killing The Dream?

Metalcore:

The Plot In You vs. The Air I Breathe?

Parkway Drive vs. I Killed The Prom Queen?

For The Fallen Dreams vs. It Prevails?

Stray From The Path vs. Every Time I Die?

Caliban vs. Heaven Shall Burn?

Deathcore:

Born Of Osiris vs. Veil Of Maya?

After The Burial vs. Within The Ruins?

Winds Of Plague vs. Emmure?

Despised Icon vs. Suffokate?

My Bitter End vs. Through The Eyes Of The Dead?

BQ: Favorite post-hardcore/screamo/hardcore punk band?

BQ2: Favorite metalcore band?

BQ3: Favorite deathcore band?

Feel free to skip bands/genres if you dislike or do not know them, and YES I'm completely aware of the people who dislike "core" bands :)

Update:

@★Mallory Knox-Vynomous NBK ☠: Haha yes I know them, well not personally lol but yeah I listen to them. They used to be one of my favorite post-hardcore bands back in the old days. You're lucky you went to school with them! :)

Update 2:

@rnrstar137: I would think there is a difference if you listen to them :)

Update 3:

@Luke G: I've never heard of Closure in Moscow, I'll make sure to check them out! :) As for It Prevails and Stray From The Path, I think they are a mixture of metalcore and hardcore. In my opinion, IP is more of melodic metalcore and SFTP is more of metalcore/hardcore punk. I guess I should've put SFTP under hardcore. Opps.

Update 4:

@Dig My Dug: If you've seen my Part 1 of this question, I already had Stick To Your Guns as one of the choices. I'm trying to not repeat the same bands. But yes I agree, STYG kicks a**! :)

@I Walk Among Them: Haha I was hoping nobody would notice about DOD and SS, and PD and IKTPQ both being Australian bands lol but yes I did that on purpose :P Smarta**! :)

    I don't know a lot of those bands.

    None of them for modern post-hardcore.

    La Dispute.

    City Of Caterpillar.

    Orchid.

    Only two of the hardcore bands I listen to is Have Heart and Defeater, and I like Have Heart tons more.

    Stray From The Path is the only one of the ones I listen to that you listed at metalcore.

    And the only deathcore band I listen to is Winds Of Plague.

    And I skipped the BQs :( I need a break.

    My favorite straight up hardcore band is Terror. I once called STYG hardcore and some guy yelled at me so I'm kinda scared now lol. But STYG is my most favorite band.

    I don't really have a favorite metalcore band, unless you could Stray From The Path.

    My favorite deathcore band is Winds Of Plague.

    Anyway. That was really s*itty. I just wanted to say that I love The Hope Division and everything else Stick To Your Guns has put out, but I didn't want to not answer your question and be rude.

    Well done Aly, Asking Alexandria sucks rancid maggot infested penis.

    out of the bands I actually like...

    Parkway Drive

    It Prevails

    Stray from the path

    Heaven shall Burn

    ... Born of Osiris by a close margin

    After the Burial

    BQ: Closure in Moscow, they are a very very very good band from Australia, they'll get famous soon just you watch. ... or probably not, good music doesn't get popular very often.

    BQ2: Favorite metalcore band? Actually I thought It Prevails and SFTP were hardcore, I guess I don't know my genres, make mine SFTP then.

    BQ3: Favorite deathcore band? After the burial.

    Best hardcore band around right now (well, maybe not A Hope Division, but their other two albums kicked ***)
