Most of what gets passed off as Metalcore nowadays really isn't. But, even in the 80s, with bands such as Carnivore and SOD, they were typically more Hardcore than Metal. Metalcore was created as a means of classing bands which blended elements of the two, but weren't able to be grouped into existing categories. These bands would typically cross over Hardcore with Thrash (which itself was a result of the blending of Hardcore Punk and Heavy Metal).

Where did the core in all subgenres of heavy music come from ie metalCORE hard core grindCORE deathCORE?
It all comes from hardcore. Punk split off into a few different genres after its inception in the mid-late 70s. One of these was hardcore, seen as being more pure and loyal to the core aesthetics of the movement - hence the name hardcore.

Is Asking Alexandria a metal or screamo band?
Eh... Personally I'd say neither. They are metalcore with synth elements. Metalcore is a fusion of metal and punk/hardcore elements. Some metalcore bands lean more towards metal, others don't. I'd say AA doesn't. They're more on the post-hardcore side. Screamo is different. Screamo is a fusion of emo and hardcore, of which Asking Alexandria is neither. Hope I helped!

What type of music is Avenged Sevenfold?
Part rock, part nu-metal (non-metal). Rock, yes, of the hardcore alternative variety. Screamy in some parts, but their earlier album has a lot more of a melodic feel, interestingly enough. The lead singer (M. Shadows) had something happen to his vocal chords after one of their concerts in the time of their first album, giving him a really raspy sound. It's sort of nasally. More screaming, then, in subsequent albums; when he does croon a ballad, he sounds sort of strange.
What is metal core music?
Depends on what era you're talking about. Metalcore was a term which has been around since the 1980s, although the bands it described are more often now referred to as 'crossover' bands. They were bands which played a blend of Metal and Hardcore Punk, but not to the point where they were considered Thrash bands, and there would typically be distinct segments of Hardcore Punk and distinct segments of Thrash or Speed Metal. Some examples include Carnivore, S.O.D., and Cro-Mags.In its current form, Metalcore is supposed to be a similar principle, but, in reality, most of the bands currently described as Metalcore have little to nothing about them which is actually any form of Metal, and play a style which is exclusively a spinoff of Hardcore Punk (or derivatives of Hardcore Punk).
What is the best metalcore song?
If you mean Metalcore in the original context as it was used originally in the 80s, "Technophobia", "God Is Dead", "Male Supremacy", and "World Wars III and IV" by Carnivore would be among my top picks. For the stuff currently branded as Metalcore.... well, you're asking for an opinion, and mine is that it's all garbage, and is just yet one more wave of false Metal.
Who are a couple Christian metalcore or hard core bands?
Impending Doom if you are looking for a very heavy sound. Or August Burns Red if you want it more high pitched screaming but not the annoying kind of high pitched. But i like With Blood Comes Cleansing the best because they go from low screaming to high. A better question would be: what band isn't Christian metalcore?
