I'm kinda new to emo....
 

So can anyone recommend any good bands to check out? either emo or screamo, i'm open to anything really.

I have stuff from these bands:

1000 Travels Of Jawaharlal
Ampere
A Day In Black And White
Boys Life
Bright Calm Blue
Christie Front Drive
Circle Takes The Square
City Of Carterpillar
Dag Nasty
Drive Liek Jehu
Envy
Funeral Diner
Groundwork
Hot Cross
Indian Summer
La Quiete
Mineral
Orchid
Pg. 99
Promise Ring
Rites Of Spring
Saetia
Seeing Means More


Anyone similiar to these would work :)

Portraits Past and Sunny Day Real Estate are always good places to start.

Texas Is The Reason is another one.

try listening to Caitlyn Bailey if you're a metalcore fan transitioning into screamo sensibilities.

^Agreed.

Texas is the Reason is the definition of mediocre and if he's heard Mineral, Christie Front Drive and Promise Ring he's heard Sunny Day Real Estate. Also they're called Portraits OF Past. This is why people who don't know anything about emo should not be running around giving recommendations.

Anyway I suggest: Spectres, The Kidcrash, Bells on Trike, Suis La Lune, Histories (formerly With Horses in Her Eyes), State Route 522, Montcalm, Navio Forge, Et Tu Brute, Moss Icon, Cease Upon the Capitol, Don Martin 3, Frail, Gospel, and Amanda Woodward.

I apologize. :rolleyes:

Me as well. :bowdown:

Who hasn't heard of Sunny Day Real Estate;)

get the fuck out proggy

Go bait people somewhere else.

go pretend to know like you know a genre somewhere else you fucking clown

How is naming two bands I like pretending to know a genre?

don't give me that bull ****, you said they were good places to start, implying that you've listened to the genre enough to give a good idea of what's good to start off with and what isn't

Lol, way to read into casual comments to much. Who made you the psycho-analyst?

hey, what if mac took up ****loads of freudian theory? now, seriously. if you're new to emo, start with the basics. go listen to Moss Icon, Indian Summer, Julia, Plunger, Portraits Of Past and Policy Of Three. that oughtta work before you get into the late-90s stuff.

swing kids, embrace

Look at his list, he's obviously way past the basics.

Yeah I heard of these bands....Moss Icons Lybernumis freaking crazy.

The past 2 years of this forum has a lot of good bands why not just use that and last.fm similar artists.

qft

oh crap, didn't notice that, ethan.
