Pretending that post hardcore and screamo aren't the same genre. :lol:
[QUOTE=christsimpson;18346432]in a world where people actually think Pianos Become the Teeth, La Dispute, Touche Amore and Circle Takes the Square are screamo[/quote]
How are these bands not screamo? Because they don't sound exactly like their predecessors?

Music scenes evolve dude. It's like when kids say Whitechapel isn't death metal, or some such shit.

[quote]I mean I don't even think most of those bands are musically all that bad

but seriously

booking agency tour manager Alternative Press photo shoot "screamo" fuck off[/QUOTE]
Why is this a bad thing? What's wrong with promotion? Why shouldn't an artist want to make money from their art?

[QUOTE=christsimpson;18346453]also Orinda hates them so I hate them. LOCAL FOR LIFE.[/QUOTE]
I like Seeing Means More, but Orinda's scene is really gay. Kids with bleached hair in trip pants push moshing to screamo bands, yeah woo.

Also, funny, Seeing Means More sounds kind of like earlier CTTS at some points.

are you serious? that EP before ATRU is lightyears ahead of how good ATRU is.

seriously, i can't imagine you not liking this:

kidding right?

The EP and ATRU are both awesome.

Split with pg.99 = CTTS two best songs imo.

[QUOTE=whiteminority;18346476]kidding right?[/QUOTE]

obviously

ive never heard anyone call touche amore or la dispute screamo besides high and driving

kids in real life do it all the time.

I have, and they are screamo bands, how do they not sound like screamo bands? They don't sound like post hardcore bands, that's for sure.

Touche Amore

Jeromes Dream (Screamo)

(modern) Post Hardcore

which does Touche Amore sound more like?

TA is not screamo man.

But let's get back to the main argument at hand. That before CTTS was big Alex (christsimpson for the unknowing) would of been into them aside from ATRU.

IDK man they sound like skram to me.

So true.

And ATRU is awesome regardless.

I can see them getting under the emo banner, but really they sound more like a emo-tinged hardcore band more than anything to me. On like the same level as Defeater and End of a Year.

Yeah they're very much on the hardcore end of the spectrum, but they give off that vibe to me, and some of their parts are very screamo.

Like the first riff in Honest Sleep.

They sound like they really like Thursday a lot of times too. That and Geoff Rickley guest spot.

Whatever they are, they kinda suck.

They're kind of like the band for kids who got into hardcore since 2010 to use as a way of saying they like "real screamo".

It's whatever though, they're a great band.

I don't even go to those shows anymore though, I've been going to more hipster "indie emo" revival shows anymore, just because the shows are so fun.

Seriously, Algernon Cadwallader shows.

Those types of bands nvr come to Toronto :(

If snowing came, I'd mosh harder than Linkin Park 03'

I like them don't get me wrong, but some kid asked if I heard of them because I like Orchid and "they sound like almost identical to Orchid except for the vocals."

lololololololol

guarantee you he doesn't actually listen to orchid he just knows the name

god i need to listen to orchid for like 2 hours now

Does anyone actually listen to Orchid?

i know that's the annoying point, like don't come talk to me about my favorite band and be wrong about it.

[QUOTE=HighandDriving;18346563]Does anyone actually listen to Orchid?[/QUOTE]

uhm yes.

One time when I was doing too much acid and depressed in senior year of high school, I locked myself in my room with the lights off and listened to Orchid for like 12 hours straight.

Thank you based Orchid.

<3 orchid a bunch

On topic of CTTS, their one guitarist died on New Years? what?

God's starting to take out all the hack screamo musicians.

ex-guitarist.

well ya, point is that sad and i didnt even know

sucks, but eh. "strangers die everyday"
