We Had A Deal

We Had A Deal is a German hardcore/screamo band and they definitely hold their own. There's a lot to enjoy. They have lots of intensity but keep the music interesting. They don't sacrifice musicality for heaviness. Plus, I have a lot of appreciation for any band that asks us to put up their music so please be supportive and give these guys a listen.

Get Bent

These dudes were really awesome Latterman styled punk from New York. I got to see them at Berea fest III before they broke up and they were super rad. Both they're demo and EP are both terribly catchy.

King Guava

I was contacted by a member of this band to put up their demo(which is super awesome) and I've got to say that it is definitely some of the most original music I have listened to in a while. It has folk instrumentation with a hardcore style and its really refreshing. You would certainly be missing out if you don't download this.

Van Johnson

Got to appreciate someone who screams in his underpants. Van Johnson is a 5 piece Hardcore/screamo band from Canada. These guys manage to be be very heavy while still having some really cool and melodic parts. I had a hard time finding their music so i hope this helps someone. enjoy!
