- what do you mean you're starting a distro?[/QUOTE]

I'm starting a distro.. a record distro.

I don't know what a record distro is.

I feel ignorant.

[QUOTE=diddlebox]Question...what is emo/screamo?

Don't reply as if I'm stupid, I've heard both but everyone seems to genrelize how they like then get critisized for it. So I'd like to know before I start posting about the emo/screamo bands I like.

Listing bands isn't exactly answering the question. :thumb:[/QUOTE]


1. Emotional hardcore.
2. You probably don't know of many if any if you don't know what it is.
3. A genre started in the mid 80's. It's a branch off of the hardcore genre. Artsy, twinkly guitars, passionate/screaming vocals, bursts of chaos, all that jazz.


Mohinder, Usurp Synapse, Indian Summer, Moss Icon, Love Lost But Not Forgotten, Julia, and Shotmaker.


Enjoy.

Record distribution company.


Atleast I'm pretty sure that's what it is. :p

Not really a company.. just some kid selling records to other kids.

[QUOTE=SunnyDayRealEstateAM]Ben, where have you been?[/QUOTE]
i got kicked off the computer for the weekend for beating the hell out of my brother and i had exams last week.

Hahaha, why'd you beat your brother?

The new Hot Cross song is better than the last.

[QUOTE=SunnyDayRealEstateAM]Hahaha, why'd you beat your brother?[/QUOTE]
i turned off the tv to relax and he said turn it back on and i said if you want it so bad make me and he came over and tryed to beat me up and i busted his nose and freaked my mom out.

Haha great. Is he older or younger?

this one is younger, i have two brothers, but he is ballsy. he usually acts the bit[B][I][/B][/I]ch but has been standing up lately so i think i will buy him something nice for his birthday in 11 days. (he turns 14.)

Oh, cool. Your younger brother is my age.

hes in eighth grader and youre a freshman so i unless you got skipped a grade you got about a year on him.

Oh. Anyways, I'm going to see Between the Buried And Me again with The Dillinger Espace Plan, and HORSE the band.

Is Between the Buried and Me good and are the Mars Volta comparrisons pretty accurate? I mean, I know they aren't supposed to sound just like them, but they are supposed to be somewhat similiar I guess. I've been wanting to buy [i]Alaska[/i] but my friend keeps telling me they're bad.

...wtf. btbam compared to mars volta? ...wtf. they sound nothing alike.

Thats what it says on the cd. Something like System of a Down meets Mars Volta.

the CD is gay then.

<-Points to name.

Meh, I didn't write it.

Actually, the high vocal note at the end of the quiet part in Backwards Marathon made me think of TMV. :p

Other than that, they are nothing alike. I'm a huge fan of both bands, but;

BTBAM > TMV

I just downloaded Fusion by Clikatat Ikatowi, and I was wondering, how is this emo?
Also, I can hear a lot of Thursday in Forstella Ford.
If anyone really cared about that last statement.

Clikatat Ikatowi aren't very good.

[QUOTE=deadohiosky9]the CD is gay then.[/QUOTE]
WRONG!

/buzzer goes off and deadohiosky is tossed into a lake of fire for his lies.

the cd is great. the band is freaking great.

[QUOTE=Sep]Clikatat Ikatowi aren't very good.[/QUOTE]
they are good, like mediocre good but they are not bad.

[QUOTE=whiteminority]they are good, like mediocre good but they are not bad.[/QUOTE]

They are very good! Ive got Orchestrated and Conducted and that's a great record!

I've got a couple of their songs and hear nothing good in them at all.

To me it's sort of post-punk/experimental, but definitely an emo thing going on.

And how can you not like Clikatat? Sure, maybe to the untrained ear they sound sort of strange, but definitely give them a chance.

They're boring. Bad vocals, and the guitar and bass aren't exactly incredible either.

But yeah, I'll give 'em another listen.

[QUOTE=Sep]They're boring. Bad vocals, and the guitar and bass aren't exactly incredible either. [/QUOTE]

I can't really agree with you on this one Sep

Everybody tell me what's good about Clikatat Ikatowi. Seriously.

They're amazing. That's about it.

The Feeding Of The Birds is okay. I'll give you that.
