that doesn't touch on any screamo... only midwestern emo. a few other users and I are working on putting together a much more expansive list of what we feel are the essentials of said genre with descriptions and stuff on that soon, so keep your eye out for that if you'd like more twinkly stuff. |

NOTINTHEFACE
04.17.11 | I just skimmed your last.fm and ratings to see what you're missing, so I'm going to give you a few essentials. More comprehensive, exploratory recs can be found with Sea Anemone and his "bible" lists, which are great resources. These are a few things you MUST have.
Mesa Verde-The Old Road (one of the saddest things you'll ever hear)
City of Caterpillar-s/t (throw some post-rock and psychadelia into pg.99)
Kidcrash-Jokes (sounds quite unlike anything you'll ever hear)
Circle Takes the Square-As the Roots Undo (ignore the haters)
Off Minor-The Heat Death of the Universe (jazzy screamo with amazing lyrics)
The Pax Cecilia-Blessed are the Bonds (screamo+post metal+Kayo Dot)
These, to me, are the essentials for anyone who wants to hear the "twinkly" side of screamo, and are among my favorite records of all time. |
Rev

Ire
04.17.11 | the fall of boss koala
