20(+) more name-your-price hardcore and screamo recs
Also there's some grind, post-metal and a bit of post-rock but the title didn't give me enough room. Hope you're able to find something you enjoy. |
| 1 |  | Amanita
The World Is Dead Prose To Me
Long-winded but beautiful instrumental post-rock/metal with a strong bass presence and lamenting melodies - https://amanitadoom.bandcamp.com/album/the-world-is-dead-prose-to-me |
| 2 |  | Aviator
I'm Not the Lonely One
If Adam Lazzara never had Taking Back Sunday and formed an emotional hardcore band, it might've sounded a wee bit like this. I know that might not be the most promising descriptor depend on where you stand but this is really great stuff. - https://aviatorma.bandcamp.com/album/im-not-the-lonely-one |
| 3 |  | Avvika
Avvika
Kind of like Elil-era Fall of Efrafa with different vocals, given the long track lengths and post-metal/crust aesthetic (the two tracks are over 15 minutes in length each). Depending where you stand on the album's prominent vegan theme this may rub you the wrong way... or it might promote some thinking? Either way, it's wonderful - https://avvika.bandcamp.com/album/s-t-12 |
| 4 |  | Bait
Cursed Among Saints
Angry, generally mid-paced hardcore from Germany. The last track provides a surprising contrast to the rest of the album, but it works well. - https://baitofficial.bandcamp.com/ |
| 5 |  | Cabrera
Nessun Rimorso
Italian-language screamo/post-hardcore with possibly divisive vocals. Disregarding the vocals (which I personally love), a post-rock feel is present in some of the music as well as post-hardcore sensibilities. No option of name-your-price, it's free or lump it - https://cabrera.bandcamp.com/album/nessun-rimorso |
| 6 |  | Coffinfish
I Am Providence
Progressive post-metal with an additional slightly gothic feel. Brilliant use of subtle warping or swirling effects to compliment riffs, which are composed well enough to keep things interesting in a genre so frequently maligned with repetition - https://coffinfish.bandcamp.com/ |
| 7 |  | Colombian Necktie
Twilight Upon Us
Hardcore with a noticeable stoner influence. An intriguing mixture that offers some low-end fun while maintaining a distinctly dark atmosphere and density. - https://colombiannecktie.bandcamp.com/album/twilight-upon-us |
| 8 |  | Deszcz
Rain Keeps Falling
Aggressive crusty hardcore that should leave your head nicely detached from your neck. - https://deszcz.bandcamp.com/album/rain-keeps-falling-6 |
| 9 |  | Earthmother
Earthmother
Radiohead + Plebeian Grandstand = Earthmother. Granted some of the quieter sections don't work all that well (some issues with fluidity between the two dynamics), but when they get going with crushing your skull they're in their element, with some of the best intense segments on this list. - https://earthmotherfl.bandcamp.com/album/earthmother |
| 10 |  | Geist (UK)
Faith Healing
Doom-laced hardcore from the UK. 15 minutes of gloriously dark riffs - https://geistuk.bandcamp.com/album/faith-healing |
| 11 |  | Hercules Rockefeller
Hercules Rockefeller
A short but sweet emotional hardcore EP with clear production and excellent vocals. - https://herculesrockefeller.bandcamp.com/ |
| 12 |  | Hospise
Hospise
Far from perfect, but this unclean, raw-sounding crust punk from Moscow still gives a lot to love over its 20 minute running length if you're in the mood for something nasty. - https://hospiseisaround.bandcamp.com/album/hospise-ep |
| 13 |  | Melchior
Melchior
Vaguely doomy hardcore. Great drums. Tortured lyrics. Vicious female vocals. Yes. - https://melchior-adl.bandcamp.com/album/s-t-cassette |
| 14 |  | Our Lady
II
Don't be fooled by the album cover. This emotional hardcore/skramz EP reaches in and tears your heart out without even thinking. - https://ourlady.bandcamp.com/album/ii |
| 15 |  | Polarbjorn
Polarbjorn
Russian-language hardcore that mixes soft-build ups and breakneck intensity really quite well. Long track lengths can make this a bit of a slog sometimes but it's well worth sticking with. - http://music.59srs.org/album/polarbj-rn |
| 16 |  | Quartier Rouge
Les Années Lumières
Clear Daughters influence, although with a more angular take on things. Which means it's absolutely magnificent. - https://quartierrouge.bandcamp.com/album/les-ann-es-lumi-res |
| 17 |  | Sarin
Burial Dream
ISIS-worship but done well. Riffs are great, atmosphere is heavy and the vocals roar with just the right level of ferocity. Lacks a bit of individuality but otherwise great. Violently yellow too. - https://sarin.bandcamp.com/album/burial-dream |
| 18 |  | Tanpopo Crisis
Evermillion
Grindcore that sounds like Pig Destroyer offcuts (this is not a bad thing). Apparently it's based heavily on Witch Craft Works, but even without knowing that this is hugely enjoyable. - https://tanpopocrisis.bandcamp.com/album/evermillion |
| 19 |  | Teeth Out
Tent
Tears your head off and spits down your neck. Relentless but arresting in doing so, like watching a good revenge film. - https://teeth-out.bandcamp.com/ |
| 20 |  | The Drowned God
The Ebony Void
Truly amazing. 3 tracks stretching for 20 minutes, these guys fill a hole which Barrow have left more than sufficiently. Will be near the top of my AOTY list, no question. - https://thedrownedgod.bandcamp.com/album/the-ebony-void |
| 21 |  | Baulta
Any Fool Can Regret Yesterday
Cheating slightly, the 21/20 addition to this list is not name-your-price, but for 2 euros this is ridiculously cheap for what it is. Melancholic, fantastically moving instrumental post-rock from Finland. - https://baulta.bandcamp.com/album/any-fool-can-regret-yesterday |
| 22 |  | Deathdealer.
Tragically Human State
Thanks to Artuma for this one. Two piece drum-and-bass guitar outfit that play heavy, lyrically impressive hardcore punk with a slightly doomy edge. - https://deathdealer.bandcamp.com/album/tragically-human-state |
| 23 |  | Beyonder
The Lost Pines
Thanks to TheMrAlexK. Texan djent/melodic hardcore group that switch between glittery ambience and low-register verses with surprising fluidity. While there are some slightly iffy clean vocals and occasional gratuitous chugfests, this is a reasonably promising debut in a much-maligned genre. - https://beyondermusic.bandcamp.com/album/the-lost-pines |
| 24 |  | Momentum
Herbivore
Thanks to OvDeath. Featuring members of Light Bearer, this is crusty, outspoken (the second on this list that deals with animal consumption) and goes hard right through to the final track, which features a lengthy lecture at the end which undoubtedly provokes thought. - https://haloofflies.bandcamp.com/album/herbivore |
