A genre which is the blend of melodic hardcore, early metallic hardcore and some post-hardcore. It usually has metallic hardcore riffs oftentimes influenced by early metalcore bands such as Earth Crisis, Visions of Disorder or Poison the Well, melodic choruses and the occasional dissonant chords. It makes heavy use of screamed vocals, although shouting, cleans and gang vocals are also prominent. The genre gets it's name from it's popularity on sites such as MySpace.
Examples of MySpace Hardcore: Evergreen Terrace, later Comeback Kid, Arrow Minds (an especially modern example), A Dozen Furies (very ATG infused example)

A musically watered down style of metal that's meant to be as inoffensive and possible and appeal to the widest demographic possible. Also commonly overlaps with octanecore.
"Old school" butt metal is basically mediocre groove metal/NWOAHM, it can also surprisingly overlap with (melodic) extreme metal, for example FFDP, Damageplan and the album Trust No One by DevilDriver
"New school" butt metal is typically inoffensive, easily digestible metalcore, for example Bad Omens, I Prevail, Spiritbox, new Of Mice & Men, new Architects and most legacy metalcore acts trying to be relevant nowadays (Atreyu)
"Dude, that's some shitty ass butt metal. Do you actually listen to Damageplan?"
"Shut up, you listen to Spiritbox and I Prevail. We're not so different"
A subgenre of heavy metal that typically blends the slower tempos, solos and heavy riffs of groove metal alongside elements of metalcore. Most groovecore bands generally make use of death growls an screaming vocals alongside clean vocals.
Groovecore bands: Lamb of God, DevilDriver, Chimaira, Killswitch Engage, Machine Head (somewhat)
A genre combining the artsy sensibilities of post-punk with the general energy of hardcore punk. Vocals can vary wildly, from cleans to screams to even death growls (do keep in mind that death growls aren't really part of the original scene). Later on, many post-hardcore bands would add influences from pop punk, metalcore or even melodic death metal.
Several genres would evolve from post-hardcore over time, such as emo and it's derivatives such as screamo and emo-pop, or mathcore, which is a combination of math rock and post-hardcore. Many melodic metalcore bands also have post-hardcore sensibilities.
