Sputnik Genre Logic

this post is essentially pointless
1Circle Takes the Square
As the Roots Undo


Screamo is not an official listed genre
2The Prodigy
The Fat of the Land


but breaks,
3JME
Integrity


and grime are.
4Orchid
Dance Tonight! Revolution Tomorrow!


I realize that grime and breaks are genres, but not ones more prominent than screamo.
5Pg. 99
Document #8


And I do think that it's a different enough genre from hardcore and emo (which is where all screamo bands are lumped into) to warrant its own officially listed genre on Sputnik.
6Dizzee Rascal
Boy In Da Corner


Especially considering genres like grime and breaks are officially listed, which contain less albums that could be classified as such than screamo does.

City of Caterpillar


I realize that hardcore and emo are strongly related to screamo (kinda the genres that founded it), but bands like Minor Threat, Black Flag, Bad Brains, Dead Kennedy's, etc (I know I didn't list any modern hardcore bands, shut up I'm tired) draw little comparison to bands like City of Caterpillar, Orchid, pg. 99, Circle Takes the Square, etc. Or bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Promise Ring, Jawbreaker, Brand New, etc.
8I Hate Myself
10 Songs


I acknowledge that this post is pretty stupid and ignorant because most any screamo band is also an emo band and it's honestly not a huge of a deal at all. The official listing of screamo wouldn't really do much and would probably cause more problems. I just get butthurt over tiny things when I'm bored. Anyways, continue on with your night.
