I don't think anyone has asked this before but is anyone going to Cry Me A River Fest in Germany this year? Here's the line-up: MILVAINS DING DONG DEAD HAMMERS PLANKS ALPINIST DOLCIM GLASSES LOMA PRIETA PUNCH COMADRE FARGO ME AND GOLIATH RESURRECTIONISTS MERKIT GRINDING HALT JUNE PAIK TITAN DANSE MACABRE BATTLE OF WOLF 359 ZANN SADDEST LANDSCAPE I'm awefully disturbed by the lack of Louise Cyphre but I saw them last year so it's not too big of a loss. Pretty psyched about The Saddest Landscape though.

Suis La Lune is pretty badass, would love to see them sometime. And BOW 359 is really amazing live. I saw them last year still thinking they were kinda "meh" and I was simply blown away as I found myself punching the stage like crazy midway their set. On a similar note, is anyone going to Fluffest? I'm still trying to figure out how to get there cheap.

I hate how all year the only decent skram shows in Belgium were Gods & Queens and Zann. And then, all of a sudden, there's a Comadre/Punch/Trainwreck/Millions of Them(check the last one out, they're Belgian hardcore, ex-Am I Dead Yet?) and a Titan show. In two different towns. loving hell. Someone's been talking about merging the two shows. Which would be rad as gently caress. I could go without a skramz show for another year if that was the case. Sorry about me using the horrible term 'skramz'. Just gotten so accustomed to it. e: Just heard La Dispute is playing here soon as well. I'm as mixed on them as most people here but are they any good live? e2: I think I just convinced the organiser of the Titan show to email the Comadre show organiser. There appears to be some friction between them but it's in the best interest of the bands that they merge. A lot of people won't doubt about which show to go to, after all, Titan only has one (meager) local support act. Personal grudges are so not hardcore.

La Dispute with Le Pre Ou Je Suis Mort and Isaiah(Belgian skramz) tomorrow. Going primarily for the support acts but at the very least La Dispute is pretty entertaining for such a melodramatic band.

So dudes, what's new in skramz? I'm completely out of touch. The only thing I gathered is the new The Saddest Landscape record. Anything else of interest?

ChrisFarley posted:Last new screamo album I picked up was Raein's "Ogni Nuovo Inizio" which is absolutely awesome. I also grabbed the Killie/Off Minor split because it was a steal and the packaging is baller, but I think that's not a completely recent release. I got those over a year ago. Not exactly the newest in skram. It's starting to frustrate me beause I think I just don't now which skram bands are actually active these days. I'm not "with it" anymore. Gah!

I love Envy but the more post-rock it becomes the less interested I am. I still can only listen to "All The Footprints You've Ever Left And The Fear Expecting Ahead." Also, they don't get enough attention but Caitlyn Bailey just recorded their new album. Everyone should check that out!

Angiepants posted:Oh no. Haha, don't worry. If you like it you like it. It's not particularly bad. It's just that most people see it as a hardcore and less religious mewithoutYou and that automatically registers as awesome. But some people think that's all it is sometimes. I like their little Hear Here(or is it Hear hear, I don't recall) releases. They're free and are extremely minimalistic little songs with poems and pieces of literature.

I'm only three tracks into Somewhere at the Bottom of the River and I'm still into it but I can see where the loss of interest could come from. They remind me of mewithoutYou and their first album is a huge guilty pleasure of mine. v

Inspector_71 posted:I just downloaded the Cutting Pink With Knives "discography" and holy poo poo it's actually a really good thing they broke up, because the demos for the newer stuff are awful. There I saw their final show  They were awesome. Too bad the CD I bought from them got lost in the mail. I do still have their 7inch splits. Good stuff.

ChrisFarley posted:Thanks a ton! Garbage Day asked me to write something about metalcore or screamo and I couldn't pass it up. Someone at CMHWAK(which is a skramz forum, has dudes from Fight Fair/Seeing Means More, You and I/In First Person and Caitlyn Bailey on it) asked if you happened to have experienced the 90's skram scene personally, and if you were in one of the more notable bands.

Inspector_71 posted:Also thanks for not being too hard on Thursday. Someday I hope I can shake Geoff Rickly's hand and thank him for keeping it real. Geoff is the loving man. The United Nations page has a shitload of skram references. Most of Thursday's music doesn't really appeal to me but I love Full Collapse and their shows are still pretty loving sweet. The whole Daitro and Thursday debacle was kinda ignorant and slightly arrogant on Daitro's part(not knowing how Geoff Rickley used to do shows for Reversal of Man and so on) even if their point was valid.

http://comadre.bandcamp.com/ New Comadre Mixtape containing new songs by Trainwreck, Punch and friggin Funeral Diner. It's only 3 dollars and it all goes to charity so don't hold back. I've given it a listen on my crappy laptop speakers and it's pretty good except maybe the fact that the Broadway Calls and Daikon songs are a bit out of theme. But hey most of us would pay a lot more for a split of Trainwreck and Funeral Diner with those two songs alone so it's still worth the money.

Killsion posted:Not to further this derail but, just because of the actions of a musician is no reason to not listen to their music. Plenty of musicians have done some awful stuff. DKM is a bad band so you shouldn't listen to them anyway, but because the guy said "human being" is certainly not the reason. I don't care how good their music is, if the singer raped a girl I don't want to listen to his lyrics or give him any of my money.

LtKenFrankenstein posted:Rape is most definitely inexcusable, but I hope if you refuse to listen to music by that band you've also never watched a Roman Polanski movie or, I dunno, listened to a Phil Spector record (murder's pretty inexcusable too). Oh definitely, but you don't really lose anything if you don't listen to one random punk band. So I don't really think the comparison to Woody Allen and Ernest Hemingway is particularly relevant or apt.

I am completely out of touch with the whole skramz thing. I even went to CMAR and only really knew La Quiete, Loma, Graf Orlock and Battle of Wolf. I also don't quite like the direction the genre is going, in fact the only new thing I've found that I really liked is Republic of Dreams. Are there any other new screamo bands that invoke that Louise Cyphre emoviolence feel that I'm missing?

I'm not sure how its gonna turn out, but I loved the poo poo out of As the Roots Undo and enjoyed the EP they released last year, so I am pretty pumped, hopefully it will be worth the wait. I asked this for Christmas in jest, and now here it is. Funny how that works.

Okay look. I used to be really into screamo. I went to Cry Me a River fest yearly, I saw Shikari, Louise Cyphre, La Quiete,... Then suddenly I stopped. It's not that I'm no longer interested in it, it's just that I don't know where to get my information from. Also, to be fair I probably grew out of it for the most part. What are good blogs or sites that I can quickly check to see all the new noteabke screamo poo poo?
