[QUOTE=DFelon204409]Emo always has some form of screaming or shouting. The point is you're supposed to let out the emotion are hard as you can. Singing rarely cuts it unless it's so saturated with/fitting to the emotion of the song. When it is all screaming and doesn't vary much in magnitude or tone, the emo is rendered screamo. Ta da!

Also, you didn't include many of the musical components of emo. You just said that they have a loud soft guitar dynamic, which is often true [i]but[/i] you're neglecting the fact that emo doesn't follow the verse chorus verse paradigm. It has mostly clean tone guitar and bass so that when the songs get fast and chaotic, which they do, the sound isn't heavy as much as it is abrasive, which complements the similar vocal style. Want me to go on? I have a bio lab to prepare and I don't want to spend the evening beating you in this argument. Just go away and masturbate in your closet while watching the OC.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=BuddyBigsby]I don't know about The Great Redneck Hope being screamo. The emphasis is on being chaotic and heavy, rather than having that emotion shine through. I hear virtually none of it.[/QUOTE]

There's not any real emotional range to TGRH (at least from what I've heard of them), it's all a grind-style scream vocally, and the music is more technical than chaotic (think DEP vs. Heroin). I guess that you could say it's dynamically emo, but I tend to think that that would break the contraints and extent the proper emo tag to pretty much all midwest emo, because it employs the same dynamics.

I might have said this but I think Song Of Zarathustra and Clikitat Ikatowi should be switched on those lists. SOZ just seems more screamo to me. I've got some bands for the list though:

Emo:
Transistor, Transistor
[URL=http://www.purevolume.com/vanjohnson]Van Johnson[/URL]
[URL=http://www.purevolume.com/forstellaford]Forstella Ford[/URL]

Need Classification:
Ruins
Racebannon

jawbroken 10-01-2004 12:02 PM

forstella ford is math rock, i thought. all this classification **** gives me a headache. but i agree with dfelon and the guy with the big list on the first page, plus a few bands. where the **** is indian summer? where the **** is still life? yaaaaaaaaawn.

BuddyBigsby 10-01-2004 12:25 PM

Indian Summer and Stil Life have both been mentioned.

cbmartinez 10-01-2004 12:59 PM

Did I classify those other ones right Buddy?

BuddyBigsby 10-01-2004 02:38 PM

I'm not sure about Fortsella Ford...

Van Johnson, yeah. I don't remember what Transistor, Transistor and Racebannon sound like, and I've never heard Ruins.

Tangy zizzle 10-01-2004 09:23 PM

Ruins = Japanese noise.

BuddyBigsby 10-01-2004 10:46 PM

Ugh. Like Merzbow?

TMA 10-01-2004 10:54 PM

I've been browsing around purevolume.com for independant bands. I found some really good ones.
When it comes to commercial Emo I recommend Bosio.
And, they have a different sound, IMO, but a good band (from Portland, Oregon, my hometown. Woot, bitches) is Duelesc. I also like Dear Whoever when it comes to the local scence.

Tangy zizzle 10-01-2004 11:11 PM

[QUOTE=BuddyBigsby]Ugh. Like Merzbow?[/QUOTE]

A little, but they have much more cohesive sound. It's more noise-rock, with hardcore and prog influences.

Very good.

StormX 10-02-2004 01:25 AM

Can anyone reccomend me some good bands that sound like Saetia. I started listening to them about a month ago and I love them, and I want to get into other bands that sound like that, kinda, that style.

Nice to see someone who knows about them. They sounded impressive when I listened.

Firstly, Hot Cross. They have the same singer. I'm actually seeing them tonight.

Other good screamo:
After School Knife Fight
Usurp Synapse
Kaospilot
You and I
The Vidablue

cbmartinez 10-02-2004 07:05 PM

I looked up every band on Level Plane last night, but I didn't have much luck (except for Van Johnson and Forstella Ford). But there are some weird bands on there. Anyway, I remember The Vidablue being on there. Have fun at the show.

*Missed Hot Cross when they came here with LickGoldenSky :upset:*
