Dogcore is a music genre born from the fusion of hardcore punk, screamo and eurodance, sometimes also called "crunkcore" or "shitcore"; A distinction is made for the use of howls and barks instead of the characteristic voice scream, and sound effects-like yelps and growls. Often the themes of the texts of such musicians refer to the canine world in particular. Bands of the genre are Caninus, Jacopo Sarno, Zac Efron, Brokencyde and The $hit, but also metalcore bands like Bullet For My Valentine and Escape The Fate. .
