[QUOTE=BuddyBigsby]One of my favorite screamo bands Happymeal, they're called Kaospilot. Plus they're one of the few screamo bands I know of that has their music up on the internet, you should check them out. [url]www.kaospilot.net[/url][/QUOTE]

Ok, I'll check them out sometime, you keep mentioning Kaospilot when you give noobs a re-education.:p Thanks. But I think I have to buy a new PC first, this crappy laptop always crashes and gets viruses when I download stuff(I also don't want to get screamed at by my dad again).

I'm also digging Psyopus right now(they're grindcore, am I right?), they're freakin' great.

BuddyBigsby 08-22-2004 06:00 PM

Psyopus' guitarist(s?) is/are jaw-droppingly amazing.

XemoXmoshXpitX 08-22-2004 06:31 PM

Again, we need an emo/screamo thread. This should be stickied.

Happymeal 08-23-2004 06:20 AM

[QUOTE=DFelon204409]Ya they're great but they're not grind (happymeal). They're math meta'/progressive/grind.[/QUOTE]

That's a mouthful.:p Whatever you call them, they're awesome. "Death, I.."'s intro reminds me of Dream Theater..Weird.. I've only heard 3 songs and my favorite "The Long Road To The 4th Dimension"! It's a miracle the drums make it out alive after one song. The drummer is crazy. I don't get tired of anything progressive. I love that stuff.

That reminds me..I haven't listened The Blood Brothers yet..do they sound something like Fear Before The March Of Flames??? People say they're good. I wanna buy [I]Burn Piano Island, Burn[/I] and I want to get an idea of what they sound like first.. Thanks again!

SILVERSTEIN is great!!!

[QUOTE=capri sun junkie]SILVERSTEIN is great!!![/QUOTE]

I don't get you man. You're down with The Locust and Charles Bronson and then you have to go and pimp new Underoath and Silverstein.

capri sun junkie 08-24-2004 06:24 AM

i dont get me either... its effed in the a

Happymeal 08-24-2004 07:28 AM

I used to like Silverstein..before I got tired of them.:p

That reminds me, I'm liking The Locust too(cheapass Purevolume-er)..

[QUOTE=DFelon204409]They're sort of like FBtMoF. I think they're much better. Go to [url]www.espew.com[/url] and search for them. It should give you a few mp3s. They have most music up there. I recommend the songs "The Shame," "****ing's Greatest Hits," and "Meet Me at the Waterfront After the Social."[/QUOTE]

Thanks. I will definitely check them out.. I'm torn between Burn piano island, Burn and Glassjaw's EYWTKAS(although I know they sound nothing like each other).

This is a useful thread. Keep it alive, people.

It will probably be better not stickified :)

capri sun junkie 08-24-2004 03:06 PM

the blood brothers are truely an amazing band. but do you really consider them emo/screamo?

syurix 08-24-2004 06:43 PM

Blood Bros are awesome, probably my favorite active band. If they're emo, its by way of the heavy Angel Hair and Drive Like Jehu(?) influences. If not, maybe they're post emo hardcore or something (but "crimes" defies hardcore, d*mn geniuses).

thanks for the rec on Fall of Troy, definitely emocore, it's got the caotic guitars, the screamy vocals, the defiance of obvious structures, the melodic flourishes.

True, but one of these days, the thread will end up on the 2nd page, as it almost already did.

Happymeal 08-26-2004 08:09 AM

Are there any more well-known emo/screamo bands nowadays, besides those that were mentioned(and Circle Takes The Square of course)? I think most of them broke up in the 90's...

loJic 08-26-2004 11:57 AM

[url]www.punchpeople.net[/url] for a very good high energetic band. Not really emo or screamo, but hey, they're good.

Bartender 08-26-2004 12:22 PM

Why post them in here then?

shane italian 08-26-2004 12:23 PM

Most likely a friend's band or he's on the street team...

NewKindofArmy03 08-26-2004 12:32 PM

[QUOTE=BuddyBigsby]Psyopus' guitarist(s?) is/are jaw-droppingly amazing.[/QUOTE]
yeah, first time listening to them i would think they have like 3 guitarists, but they only have 1. but like i said before, i don't enjoy listening to them.

shane italian 08-26-2004 03:16 PM

[QUOTE=DFelon204409]I'm on street teams but for good bands like Trophy Scars and Dillinger Escape Plan.[/QUOTE]I'm on Champion's "unofficial" street team. I use physical force to make people listen to them.

Happymeal 08-27-2004 09:03 AM

i forgot about Trophy Scars..I like them. Especially "..and that's where they found my body" with the jazzy keyboards. Although their sound reminds me a lot of Thursday(Post-hardcore??).. When the hell will they release a full album?? I don't get why bands release EP's with such good songs.. makes you want more.

loJic 08-27-2004 10:28 AM

It's a friends band. Just trying to get them some publicity. It's hard down here in New Orleans for a rock band to be heard. They opened up for Buckethead at Howlin Wolf and were on the waiting list for VOODOO this year. So they're getting there, just need a couple of people in other states and countries to check em out. They're real melodic and emotional with there music, and they can have that Glassjaw edge at times. I just don't consider em Emo or Screamo. They have their on sound. Ya'll should check em out, and let me know what you think. [url]www.punchpeople.net[/url]

Red is the new black 08-27-2004 07:42 PM

i know its a bit late in the thread but post-emo indie rock your just making up a genre because you don't want to admit that taking back sunday and the like are emo. Yes emo has its roots but since then it has evolved because of people experimenting and listening to emo along with other genres of music just think about it, its the same with all music types they change to suit a different audience.

Red is the new black 08-27-2004 07:43 PM

oh and just to add dillinger escape plan a good band, you make me p**s my self laughing.

Happymeal 08-27-2004 08:04 PM

[QUOTE=DFelon204409]They're awesome and they do have a full length out (Darts to the Sea) and they will have another full length out soon. I have it in the mp3 form and it's tough to get online or anywhere actually so if you like you can IM me at DFelon204409. I'll be out a lot today but we'll see if we can work this.[/QUOTE]

They do?? I didn't know that too.:lol: oh well.. I'm trying to figure out how AIM works first.. I'm pretty stupid at these things really.:p But I'll try to download it this weekend if this laptop doesn't act sh*tty when I do. I'll contact you if everything goes well. Thanks.

Hahahahahaha, no. Ok, let me break this down for you.

Post = After. So "Post-Emo" means after emo. Simple enough. But wait... aren't bands like Saetia and Hot Cross technically post-emo? Yes. So what makes bands like Sunny Day Real Estate different? They're more rock oriented, hence the Indie Rock.

...why in the hell would I not want to "admit" that Taking Back Sunday are emo? I don't care... I like bands like Taking Back Sunday that [I]don't[/I] suck (Armor for Sleep) and I also like real emo. If you'd ever actually heard real emo rather than speak out of complete ignorance, you would see what I'm saying.

A-Life-Less-Plagued 08-28-2004 02:32 PM

What are Reach The Sky? They don't seem emo, but I guess they have the lyrics.

A-Life-Less-Plagued 08-28-2004 02:37 PM

I guess they're just hardcore.

shane italian 08-28-2004 11:02 PM

[QUOTE=A-Life-Less-Plagued]I guess they're just hardcore.[/QUOTE]Dude.......................WHAT THE EFF? Reach The Sky are hardcore no doubt man.

Wannabe Emo001 08-29-2004 06:53 AM

whoa wait... isnt Thursday emo though?

Bartender 08-29-2004 07:02 AM

Thursday are post-hardcore, I think.

Happymeal 08-30-2004 06:34 AM

I heard Cecilia And The Silhouette Salloon by The Blood Brothers, and I was really impressed! I'm really gonna buy Burn Piano Island, Burn! Although I expected they were a little heavier, like a more melodic Converge or something.

CommieCanada 08-30-2004 06:46 AM

i hate classifying bands uder the "post-something" genre. if Thursday is post-hardcore or post-emo or whatever, that means that the hardcore and emo movements had to end somewhere. So i supose my follow up question would be, when did hardcore and emo come to their end? or is it just that anything after the initial explosion is considered "post"?

Now that you mention it, I never really thought about that... Well, Buddy and DFelon?? For me, I guess bands nowadays have more of a different sound than the original emo and hardcore bands that started the whole thing(although I've heard little about them)..but why not place them in another(or a new one) genre altogether to avoid all the "post" labeling?? And what the hell does post-punk sound like?!:confused:

Bartender 08-30-2004 10:26 AM

I always thought post-genre meant something with its roots in the genre, but with differences (just not differences enough to make it a new genre).

Happymeal - The Cure get called post-punk.

Painful_Cheese 08-30-2004 11:10 AM

Well from what i've heard Alexisonfire is emo/post-emo or something along those lines. So if it's true i'd recommend anything from their first album. (Not the second one, stay aawwaayy from the second one)

VoodooMagik 08-30-2004 11:50 AM

hey painful cheese, i like their second album. I really like both even if the second is more... emo I guess?


Senses Fail and Unerderoath are also pretty good bands somewhere between emo and screamo.

TMA 08-30-2004 01:23 PM

From First To Last... good stuff. It commercialized Emo. It isn't the real thing, like what DeFelon is talking about, but... still. It's really good listenings.

Painful_Cheese 08-30-2004 01:57 PM

[url]www.fourfa.com[/url] pretty much cleared up emo and i'll try out some Circle Takes The Square and see if i like it. BUT i'm seriously going to listen to 'Optimus Prime, 5 DiGiorno Pizzas, and a Bag of Condoms Make One Awkward Morning After' by Dracula Core. I mean comeon, the title is so brilliant...

capri sun junkie 08-30-2004 04:23 PM

[QUOTE=DFelon204409]Then as punishment for speaking ignorance go listen to every song at [url]www.hxcmp3.com/bands/12660[/url] (they're not emo; they're the equivalent of washing your mouth off with soap...aurally).[/QUOTE]

aww, i say that they are the equivilent to sex for the ears! ;)
