Beardcore is a Wikipedia:sub-genre of Wikipedia:heavy metal music, started in America, where many of the musicians have beards. [1] [2] It comprises of so called "Happy Hardcore" or "Easy Hardcore" metal music. The songs lyrics are usually sung rather than shouted, but all the major ideals from Wikipedia:metal are there (the double pedal, drop tuned guitars, breakdowns.) The only major difference is the songs are played in a major (or "happy") key. the band Wikipedia:Four Year Strong are thought to lead this genre [3] as most of the members have full facial beards and play the "happycore" punk pop music. Matt Kadane, of the band Wikipedia:The New Year, is said to be a poioneer of the genre. [4]

The record label Wikipedia:No Idea Records specializes in the beardcore genre. [5]
