depressive black metal.
haunting, misanthropic, and sorrowful.
claustrophobic atmospheres and tortured screams.

iwrotehaikusaboutcannibalisminyouryearbook / 8 song demo (2006)
iwrotehaikusaboutcannibalisminyouryearbook was a short lived screamo band from california.
this is probably the first screamo band that i fell in love with: heartfelt, incredibly passionate, (oddly) catchy. the vocals are thrown and fall like broken bottles. all of their songs were untitled (ex. untitled 1, untitled 2, untitled 3, et al) and their discography comprised of demo and an unreleased 5 track demo was released in 2010 on discos huelga, further adding to the confusion that untitled 1 (for example) on the demo would not be untitled 1 on the discography. i was one of the few lucky people to own a first pressing of this record on clear vinyl, and it's probably my most prized record. one of my ex girlfriends was trying to get me to sell it to her recently.
me: 'no. . .but you can come over and listen to it if you want?'
members of this band went on to play in beau navire, punch, ...who calls so loud, and others, but this band will always have a place in my heart.

city of caterpillar / city of caterpillar (2002)
in honor of the recent repress on repeater records, here's a classic.
city of caterpillar was a band from virginia active from 2000 - 2003.
they played a post-rock influenced style of screamo:
i.e. - slow, melodic instrumental build ups that detonated into an ebullient explosion.
this is one of my favorite records of all time and required listening fr any young aspiring screamo fan.
knocked loose / pop culture (2014)
knocked loose is a hardcore band from kentucky.
enraged, heavy, ferocious: just the way i like my hardcore.

neil perry / lineage situation (2003)
neil perry (the kid who commited suicide in the 1988 movie dead poet's society) was a screamo band from new jersey active from 1998 to 2002. this release is their discography, a compilation of tracks released on a picture disc, a self titled release, and several splits between other screamo heavy weights such as usurp syanpse, joshua fit for battle, kaospilot, etc. this is everything you'd want from a screamo band (intense, pensive, emotional), this band is legendary.
young and in the way / when life comes to death (2014)
blackened punk from north carolina.
these guys sound like they raised in a fog shrouded, blizzard stricken norwegian forest.
