Pansori - Sumemr Demo '10

Our band got to play our last show ever with these guys and girl and I couldn't have been happier to be playing it with them. Seeing them live was awe-inspiring it was one of the best concerts I have seen. Talking and meeting these people gave me even more respect for them as they are the nicest/funniest/most wonderful people you could ever want to meet. I loved eighthundredyearsofsilence, but these three new songs are beyond anything I've ever heard and is by far the most impressive music I've heard this year and perhaps ever.

Pansori - Summer Demo '10

La Dispute/Touche Amore split

Ive been looking forward to this split for awhile and im sooo happy its here! Im more of a touche fan but both sides are fantastic. TA's side is a little more melodic than there other stuff and the guest vocals by La dispute's Jordan are really great. Overall the songs are very dramatic and very epic. This split is quite the treat so I really recomend it!

Searching for a Pulse/Worth of the World

1994! and Spires

Two awesome bands. One is really mathy post rock two piece and the other is a pretty dark screamo band

1994 - Thank you Arms and Fingers

Spires - Flowers and Fireworks

Split

Pansori

These guys feauture ex-members of a whole bunch of Baltimore bands. They play really epic post-rock infused screamo that is very remianscent of City of Caterpillar and Portrait thanks to their inclusion of the violin. From about 8:00 to 11:00 is some of the most climatic and moving music I've ever heard. They are going on a summer tour and need help booking dates!!

Demo

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.

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!

Van Johnson

MeAndGoliath

Another UK Screamo band but they definitely have their own sound and style. I was surprised to learn that they are a 3-piece, especially since the music has a lot going on. The thing that really sticks in my head about these guys is the way they piece all their parts together and create some really tremendous songs. They have a split with grave...shovel? lets go that i will eventually put up.

self-titled 10"

I Would Set Myself On Fire For You

Okay now I admit to be a total sucker for bands with any sort of string instrument (viola etc...) but these guys do it the best and definitely get the most recognition for it, along with maybe Portrait, maybe I'll just post bands with such instruments for the awhile, but enough on this tangent. IWSMOFF created probably the greatest CD of all time with ...Believes in Patterns and also had a self-titled CD and an unreleased 7"....Believes in Patterns is music as art in its highest form, they blend several genres without any of it seeming forced or pretentious (Between the Buried and Me should take a clue). The Song 11 was sadly never "officially" released and is one of their strongest songs too. I'd rather see these guys make a new CD instead of Circle Takes the Square or any other band ever releasing a new CD

...Believes in Patterns

Self-Titled (I swearI'll upload this just not tonight!!)

2 New Merchant Ship Songs!

Hoo-Rah for this band getting back together and now recording two new songs that both sound awesome!! The first song is the usual Merchant Ships sounding a ton like Make Me while the other song is alot more screamo-ish and way less emo-ish...if that makes any sense.

Awesome two new tracks Dwag!

James Dean

One of my favorites at the moment. This band has a very unique sound. Its like a screamo/post-rock band but without really any screaming. Im going to call it "tempermental emo." They have broken up and this is everything. Very catchy songs. Enjoy!

Ampere - All Our Tomorrows End Today

Pretty intense, well-known, and prolific screamo band featuring Will Killingsworth of Orchid fame. They consist of short chaotic screamo songs with some really awe-inspiring guitar parts. Personally I like them more than Orchid

All Our Tomorrows End Today

Antilles/ The Juniper Wait split

I decided to exclude this from my Antilles post but you can check that for more Antilles music. Anyways, The Juniper Wait was a really spacey Post-Rock band from Ohio. Wish they were still around, but I guess everything good has to come to an end.

Raein - Ogni Nuovo Inzio

I had the extreme pleasure of seeing these guys on Sunday. I had only really listened to Il n'y a Pass de Orchestre and their self-titled. Both being fantastic CD's, but I picked up their newest record at the show and it blows both of those out of the water. I truly regret not listening to this when it first came out, it's perfect classic European screamo, utilizing some really cool melodic passages with their three guitarists. If you waited on this album like I did, please don't!

Ogni Nuovo Inzio

John Cota

I am sad to say that this band is no more. They only put out 5 songs, but they are seriously some of the best 10 minutes of music in my opinion. A cool mix of chaos and melody. the calculator side of the split is also fantastic.

Textbook Traitors

This is one awesome hardcore screamo band thats from Milwaukee. Super harsh vocals, chaotic instruments, all the good stuff.

You pull the strings that make us dance

Loma Prieta

Been a week since I last posted and I am very sorry, so to make it up, here is one incredibly stupendous band. They have an intense sound on Last City but Dark Mountain is a little more melodic. enjoy!

Loma Prieta - Last City

Loma Prieta - Dark Mountain

Loma Prieta - Our LP is Your EP

Suis La Lune

Super awesome screamo band from sweden. These guys have really cool melodies in their songs. My personal favey is "this heart easily tears".

Suis la Lune - Quiet Pull the Strings

Suis la Lune - Heir

Suis la Lune - s/t

Lion of the North

Unfortunately, another defunct screamo band. Really good stuff. I wish there was more but at least we are left with some great songs.

There aren't enough words to express how phenomenal this band is. They are easily in my top faves. The riffs and the chanting is just sooooo good. Must have for sure!
