Even so, it's not so hard to see why somebody might want to call the UK's Enter Shikari trancecore. In fact, one really need look no further than "Enter Shikari," the first proper track of their full-length debut Take To The Skies. The track starts with a synthesized arpeggio and synthesized bass kick, before vocals, heavier (acoustic) drumming, and a chunky guitar come in. The song is otherwise pretty straightforward post-hardcore, with the trance-like synth line fading background to foreground throughout the song.

So yeah, I guess "trancecore" is as good a name as any, because they don't really settle on any one -core genre, hitting the highs of post-hardcore, metalcore, and straight hardcore, all with trance aesthetics. "Mothership" again kicks off with a line plenty of budding trance musicians would kill to write, leading into a Chimaira-esque metalcore breakdown (hey, who says the breakdown has to happen in the middle?). A synth melody draws attention away from the guitar sneaking in, a crunchy buildup, and then another post-hardcore style buildup before breaking drifting into a clean guitar/vocal section. They further play up the electronic influences on several primarily-electronic interludes, the third of which includes a more drum'n'bass sound than the trance elements elsewhere on the disc. The last surprise they throw into the disk is "Adieu," more of an emo-style song--by which I mean decent emo, not the crap that passes for radio rock.
