Thanks for this will check these bands out, and yeah Sed Non Satiata is great, didn't know they were still around, etc though. Parachute Underwear posted:Suis La Lune reminds me Raein, too. Yeah, into both of these bands. I picked up Raeins 6 track album they did in 09 or whenever but I wasn't that into it. I grabbed Suis La Lune's Riala recently but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. Hoping it holds up to Quiet, Pull The Strings!

Amanda Woodward, Mihai Edrisch, Belle époque and Celeste are all great French bands. Celeste is impressively oppressive, especially if you understand the language. I think Celeste's releases are all free from their label? I think it's Denovali, but I'm phone posting so I can't be sure.

Pretty much anything on Denovali is free and downloadable for free, or streaming for free off their site last I checked. Wonderful label. http://denovali.com/celeste/ Streaming several songs with links to the albums for free. Warning though, it does start the streaming instantly, so check your volume.

And yeah, sorry about confusion etc This is all good chat anyway. I've been pining for more current screamo lately and esp with Comadre on their last tour that's like 1/3 bands I bother leaving the house to see anymore I realized I should probably get back in touch with current music again (the other two being Loma and Punch).

Loma Prieta is fantastic, I.V. was in my AOTY list easily. I like Punch but I find they fall into this weird category where people that normally hate this kind of music like them for some reason. Kind of weird I find. I think its just the tumblr crowd kind of thing, but either way, I do like them.

I got a hair cut about 2 weeks ago and the nice barber mentioned her 15 year old daughter was into screamo music like Bring Me the Horizon and Asking Alexandria... needless to say I ended up having a nice music discussion with her. Also it just further showed to me such music is indeed meant for 15 year old girls, which I mentioned to her and she absolutely agreed, haha.

Oh I don't remember if I posted this in here or not but I stumbled on this a month or two ago. It's not screamo at all but still relevant to the thread but Gut Feeling is really good. It's ex-Catharsis doing youth crew-ish sort of stuff which is the other genre in which I'm still stuck in the early 2000s but more because every band broke up vv.

Screamo recs: June Paik (sorry if everyone already knows these guys, I kind of get confused as to what is known and loved and what isn't) Esazlesa Aussitot Mort (maybe more on the post-rock side of things, but still worth mentioning. Tel Fyr//Todos Caer 12" split Coming soon and sounds very promising. Sidenote: I am really enjoying the new Caravels album. It seems a lot more subdued than other screamo I've listened to. I can't really explain it, but they sound quite different to most of the other stuff I've listened to which is very firey and passionate. Given that these guys were recommended to me as "like PBTT but not as good", I have to say, I'm pleasantly surprised. e: Everything on Aussitot Mort's bandcamp is free right now, so if you have any gaps in your discography: GOGOGO! nomapple fucked around with this message at 13:00 on Apr 6, 2013 |

Well I'm halfway encouraged by the reaction so far in this thread. So a question I noticed popping up a couple of times was 'Why make a thread to concentrate specifically on bands from those 10-12 years rather than an emo megathread period? The answer is twofold: Well, for starters, it wouldn't be an emo megathread, it'd be a Post-Hardcore/Emo(core) megathread. Second, it's more along the lines of 'If you wanted a discussion about grunge, would you open it up to be about bands with a rather tenuous link to that sound who came on the scene 20 years later?' This is not to say that we wouldn't be discussing any material that was published after that, or bands that were formed after that, but the focus should be on bands in that era/those specific sounds. This thread is about to start its 200th page, and is probably due for a new one soon. It just makes a lot more sense to me to have: Punk/Hardcore/Emo megathread - for the general punk/hardcore/emo discussions & new releases Post-Hardcore/Emocore/Screamo* megathread - for a discussion about these specific sounds and the few bands that still make records like that Scenecore Megathread - for whatever happens in there in terms of divisions. It seems to me right now there is not really anywhere to discuss post-hardcore stuff (this is not really the best thread for that), this thread is too scattered to really have discussions about emocore and the same goes for 'screamo' (back when it was still just 'louder emo'). This is the kind of stuff that I want to discuss, I really don't care much for modern punk or hardcore, and would rather keep digging to find rarer tapes/eps/7inches I never heard of before. I must not be the only one *not gonna use the other S-word, but that's what I mean.

It doesn't really matter to me what you do, but this thread doesn't really move that fast and seems to welcome all comers. It would suck to have discussion be even slower by moving post hardcore to an emo thread. edit: yeah I thought the scenecore thread was all about what you want to discuss. alg fucked around with this message at 02:22 on Apr 7, 2013 |

I agree, even though there's not a lot of post hardware discussion in here, I feel a lot of the post hardcore stuff, like Glassjaw/Thursday/At the Drive In, etc. would be welcome here. Some people might hate it, but I doubt you'd be run out of the thread for bringing it up. Some of the shittier post hardcore, like Hawthorne Heights or Asking Alexandria or whatever can easily go in the scenecore thread. Breaking everything up even further just seems counter-intuitive.

While we decide about the new thread, I have to say this: gently caress Troubleman Unlimited, what is wrong with you guys? They have been saying for at least a decade now that they were going to release a completely remastered 'The Hated' discography and have done absolutely nothing toward making that a reality. I've had the chance to hear a completely remastered 'What Was Behind', finally the right speed the band wanted it to be, and it's incredible. No wonder they disowned the version that was put out. They were an awesome band, more than deserve a whole 'discography' treatment and nothing is happening on that front. I've been waiting for almost a decade and a half now, and it's really frustrating. vvv Everysong is indeed perfect Twee as Fuck fucked around with this message at 16:13 on Apr 7, 2013 |

Everysong is perfect. It's What Was Behind that was mastered at the wrong speed. And i agree: at the right speed it is incredible. Probably my favourite ever hardcore album. To think it was just a 6 year old unreleased demo until that too slow LP release came out. What a fate it's been given.

OK so I am only 36 but I realize I am getting old when people say "emo" and I think gently caress yeah I like Sunny Day Real Estate and The Promise Ring then I click on a link someone posts and it sounds like the singer is having their nipples shorn off while the rest of the band throws their instruments in an empty dumpster over and over. I think I basically skipped 2000-2008 in my music listening life.

I'm more or less in your age bracket, and I pretty much ended up having the same reactions you did (and that's also why I wanted that separate thread). 'Emo' to me was always from Rites of Spring to SDRE, I kept on listening to that music but somehow there's a whole other genre that has nothing to do with what I knew as emo that developed. I'm not even talking about Panic at the Disco! or My Chemical Romance and all that, apparently its still a vibrant scene nowadays but I have no idea what kind of bands play or what they sound like. In a way, my tastes in terms of Punk/Hardcore/Post-Hardcore/Emocore/'Screamo' (I hate that last term) were pretty much set in stone by 1997 and I've had no desire to expend them since then outside of listening to the new material from those bands that are still kicking around. Which is funny because in pretty much every other music genre I've always been listening to new material all the time.

Totally endorsing everyone and anyone jumping on this poo poo. I also listened to the new Caravels a couple of days after it dropped, and it's pretty awesome. Didn't really grab me as much on first listen as Floorboards did, but I think it's because the album is a lot more restrained and less raw and in your face all the time. Floorboards sounded like Identity Crisis-era Thrice wrote a Level Plane record. The new one seems to have some more stuff going on though, so I assume it'll take a couple more listens before it really clicks.

I really love Stay On My Side, particularly "Disintegration", and I'm a big fan of Clarity, but I only moderately dug Bleed American because everything I love about the band seemed to be toned down and too poppy in spots for my taste. Which on reflection seems sort of weird, because I generally really love pop punk. Maybe I should give both albums another listen. This track is awesome, and it sounds like the new album will be good if this is any metric to go by.
