Especially on their last record, which is why I love it so much. Probably my second favourite of theirs.

Meh. Converge started becoming less cool after Jane Doe, just like how Poison the Well got boring when they went post-hardcore after their first album. I'm returning to Petitioning the Empty Sky more and more.

I feel like the gap of albums between Jane Doe and EWLWLB were just Converge as usual but their latest is definitely a return to experimentation that I enjoy. Lot's of sludge metal undertones too which I like.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

What in the hell is "skramz"?

I've never heard this term in my life, just "screamo"

Yeah, that sounds pretty legit.

People have to come up with stupid new terms for things that were already defined.
