Good call.

Heroin is a good example that emo doesn't suck.

So is every band mentioned in the first post of this thread except for Clikitat Ikatowi and Antioch Arrow.

I like some Clikatat and I love Antioch.

Clikatat boo! They suck. Send me some Antioch when I get online.

hey guys, i recently purchased from first to last first full length album...and i think its unreal!! anyone aggree or should i say disagree??

Wrong forum.

Clikatat Ikatowi are one of the most amazing bands ever.
All incredibly talented musicians.

Never heard of them. I'll check them out.

They're a weird band. I listen to them when I want to relax.

I just can't into the vocals. I usually don't mind that spoken word thing, but they just annoy me.

[QUOTE=amostbitterseason]Ok, I've been getting into Thursday more and more and was wondering which album I should get of theirs.[/QUOTE]

Definately get Full Collapse. That's what got me into what emo. Not directly, but from there I started listening to some post-hardcore, nu-emo, post-emo or popcore or whatever the f[SIZE=2]u[/SIZE]ck you want to call it, then emo.

[QUOTE=RetiredAt21]Never heard of them. I'll check them out.[/QUOTE]

haha even I've heard of them.

hahahahahaha, anyone ever heard a band called Devola? Oh man, and I thought Jerome's Dreams vox were bad...

Emo band?

They're just amazing. That's all you need to know. And I do the best Devola vocal impression ever.

have you guys heard of Circa Survive? They're called post-hardcore, but I wouldn't trust that on its own. Also, the singer has very high-pitched vocals, but I don't mind.

Good band, but not material for this thread.

I don't see what's so great about them. The vocals are cool (I know plenty of people who think they are good just because they have Anthony Green) but the music is boring.

I'd be guilty of jocking them because of TDF before jocking them because of Anthony Green.

Makes sense...


What the fu[B][I][/I][/B]ck?

They have ex-This Day Forward...

Ohhh. That's a plus. What's up with TDF's last album? It's all pop-punky.

I wouldn't call it pop-punky.... although I'm deeply in love with it and it may be my favorite one.

Do parts of Little Girls Pointing And Laughing by Alexisonfire sound very emo-ish to anyone else? Just the build-up and how the vocals work together. I got that kind of feeling.

Or maybe I'm just insane.

On 'Presents' the JD vocals are bad, but on their other stuff they're amazing.

Frodus are awesome.

I always thought he sounded ridiculous on the older stuff. Nevertheless, I still liked them.

When I band has some nice guitar work but horrid vocals, I can usually get past the vocals and like them. But I just can't get past those JD vocals.

[QUOTE=BuddyBigsby]I always thought he sounded ridiculous on the older stuff. Nevertheless, I still liked them.[/QUOTE]

Their live shows were sick! He never used a mic and eventually his voice got all ****ed up. That's why they used a sort of 'megaphone' on 'Presents.'

I've heard [b]of[/b] Decahedron.. what do they sound like?

Decahedron are great kinda post-punky, dischord stuff... i think someone from fugazi is in them...
anyways I got bored one day so I read most of the 82 page thread. Pretty sad, but mostly interesting. Just wanted to say thanks for everyone that recommended all the cool bands. Couple of things...some one mentioned 'The Murder Of Rosa Luxembourg' they started out as a joke metal band, then went a bit mental on their full length, dont think you can call it emo/screamo at all... THEN, they released an ep called 'secret bark language' which is really wierd and mellow, almost jazz...

I would like a hand with the definitions of the following... (dont think any of them are 'pure' emo or screamo, but the influences are clear).
Small Brown Bike
Million Dead
