Scremo...


When

Recommended Posts

my area has changed as of the past few months

same thing with one of my roommates

 

the scremo scene has taken over here

and its all i hear when im driving around

every kid is bumping some whiny ass pusscore music out of their ride

 

where did this trend come from?

a few months ago i was told

the hardcore metalcore etc. im listening to is shit

and the bands had no talent

 

but wait, add some whiny chorus into it

and lighten the tone a bit and its gold

 

i know this is a pointless rant

but i can hear my roommate

listening to a cd in the other room right now

pretty much any music that is hard and metaly with evil growling 'screaming' about how she doesnt love you anymore, but then also has singy parts complaining about how she doesnt love you anymore is 'screamo'. lincoln park is an insanely generic version. thursday and cursive are a little more borderline 'cool', but still sucky IMO.

 

the problem is that some bands do it well. hopesfall, poison the well, etc. then a ton of other bands just suck.

and yes, i'm amazed at how big its gotten also.

i was just at a show in wilmington delaware, with 250 16 year old kids, all mad at something...but the thing is, they werent even mad. they were all happy and laughy, they just listened to angry music.

i kind of didnt get it.

i listen to angry music because i hate my life and theres only so much skin i can cut in order to stop the pain of the lonliness, ya know... but these kids arent cutters, they're cheerleaders and math geeks.

it's stupid.

if you're going to hate yourself, because she does, do it right, quit being a pussy.

you're right about the cutter-core aspect of most music. fuck the kids and their self-righteous "dance parties" and zines. "fuck happy."

camaaaan...

 

Screamo is the newest scene to be bastardized and put into easy to swallow caplets for 14-year olds around the country, with bands that I haven't even heard of as the leaders of this brand new movement (which actually started over a decade ago).

 

Screamo is the new label for any band that has whiny singing and the bassist screaming as an echo for what the singer had just said about his girlfriend leaving him.

 

The stuff that these crappy bands is truely emotional stuff, however, and I honestly suggest that you give it a listen.

 

Give Ethel Meserve a listen if you want something emotional... or Portraits of Past.

I guess I havea adifferent impression of screAmo. why is there no A in everyone's version?

 

Cursive is screamo? ptw?

 

Anyone listen to The Assistant? or Stop it!

 

I consider PTW and Thursday straight indy rock. they're not hardcore, they're too generic and redundant to be screamo. when i think of screamo I think of more jumpy bands, as in, their song structure's are all over the place....kind of, going out of their way to be different. Which sometimes I'm into, usually I'm not.

 

But, The Assistant is the greatest band that's ever existed. PTW is kinda bad. Cursive would never enter into my head regarding screamo, but they are one of the best bands ever, although slightly disappointing live.

 

What bands are you guys referring to when you say "Screamo"?

Good call on the Assistant. Their song on the Antipodes Compilation is so brutal its not even funny.

 

Piebald is a rare band... they had two seperate points when they were amazing for different genres... the end of their hardcore days ie. the split with Cave In, and Even After Thirteen Years..., but on top of that, "When Life Hands you Lemons" is one of my favorite indie records.

 

And if you'd like to categorize screamy hardcore as 'screamo' then all of those Gravity Recs. bands dont fit the whole 'my girlfriend broke up with me' mold... at all. Antioch Arrow and Angel Hair were so intense.

Yeah man, Piebald shouldn't have gotten back together. Or at least, they shouldn't have released anything else, and just toured older material. I know, I'm selfish, they're doing their thing, whatever.

 

I saw The Assistant's new band, The Last Will Be The First....not nearly as good, but still cool to see that girl doin' her thing.

 

ForstellaFord was quality too.

 

Nomadawhat--Sorry, I'll try to stick by everyone else's guidelines better.
