What kinda of Metalcore are you talking about

all great bands!!

uuuuu, ty for this bag of candy. munch munch munch munch munch

Portrayal Of Guilt is amazing

frail body so good

Fuck yes. Awesome band

Suis la lune is probably one of the best bands out there. That album is so raw and the production is so dirty... Check all the new compilations that they released now because they just release a new discography vinyl compilation box, they have nice old songs all put together. And Viva Belgrado's first influence you can tell only by hearing them that it's Suis la Lune, Ulises is a very good album but Flores, Carne is outstanding.

You and I are rad, I found out about them from Geoff Rickley's interviews. Learning about You and I is how I got into Capacities.

I never knew about Capacities before this video, they sounded very good!

Yeah they have members from You and I (can't remember if I mentioned that in the video or not)

Anomie!! Ananda had most of the same members I think. There was another French band called Jasemine that had a similar sound. I hear a lot of influence of this generation of French emo in modern 'Black Metal' - Alcest and bands like that.

that's cool

I do enjoy love Swing Kids! So many great bands in this scene, it was very hard to narrow down to 10.

ti ho vistaaaa volar via come foglie secche al ventooo

Pretty sure Ampere was as well as a bunch of other greats from that scene

Pontifex Maximus i don't think so, I only really listen to a couple sludge metal bands, primarily Neurosis and Boris (if they even count). I think somone else who knows the genre better should tackle that one. I do want to do videos for post-hardcore, 60s/70s psych, emo, prog metal, and hardcore punk though.

I love Alexisonfire! To me they are really more of a post hardcore band than a traditional skramz band.

Alexisonfires first album leans into the skramz subgenre a bit, I always thought. But traditionally they've always been more or less post hardcore.

Try checking out Yaphet Kotto or A Day in Black and White, less screams, more instrumentals and even some clean singing.

Will do. We discussed Alexisonfire on BarackPdubs channel, whom I do enjoy. Do you consider them Screamo or post-hardcore? In any case, the way they weave Dallas Green and George Petit's vocals is awesome. BTW, listened to some more Saetia on Spotify this evening and it's growing on me :)

I think I would consider Alexisonfire post-hardcore, although the argument could be made that their first album was screamo. In general I think their pop sensibilities exclude them from traditional screamo bands, same goes for groups like Silverstein.

Honestly those two genres can be combined. Post-hardcore is hardcore with more melody to it (leaning toward rock/alternative), not necessarily in the vocals but that definitely happens, while screamo is generally octave chords and based around screaming. Bands like Envy mix the post-hardcore leanings with screamo.

Oh yeah tons of stuff: Ostraca, Glassing, Scowler, Heaven in Her Arms, Blue Friend, Yumi, Lyed, Loma Prieta, Citycop, Innards, Ampere, Locktender, Nous Etions, Gas Up Yr Hearse, just off the top of my head.

Hi, after reading this question I was kinda wondering as well which bands have those jazzy sounds in their music. I made a small list of screamo bands that are noteworthy with a specific jazz influence (my ear could be wrong, but then at least you have some nice list of bands that are good to check out anyway! They’re all really great) - Agna Moraine’s Autobiography - In Braille - Candidate (there are different bands called like this, it’s the Simple Harmonic Motion album) - Hats off, Gentlemen (Not sure if this one counts. Apparently they started out as a Saetia cover band. May explain why I thought they fitted in this list) - A Fine Boat, That Coffin (very jazzy, but completely different sounding than the bands you were mentioning. So not sure if you really like this) - Okara (more on the edge of math rock/ jazzcore. But what are genres anyway :p)

United Nations

i know it’s late but check out the swing kids 7“ !

Great cover :) I'll try to address both your comments here. I never got into Underoath much when I was younger, maybe it was watching Fat Mike rip on them at warped tour lol, but in retrospect I've definitely jammed They're Only Chasing Safety a few times and really dug it. Anyhow I've always considered them post-hardcore, although there are definitely screamo elements in their music (more early stuff) along with Metalcore as well. Post-hardcore really to me is just music that uses hardcore punk as a sonic and aesthetic groundwork but moves beyond the musical confines of the genre, so often post-hardcore will incorporate many different sounds and styles. Silverstein is on the poppy side, but probably closer to screamo than post hardcore for me (hell, I mean they even covered Orchid on one of their EPs). Hawthorne Heights is just emo-tinged rock IMO. MCR? hmm, I mean they definitely came from the post-hardcore scene, I think they actually got together in Thursday's basement, but really I would put them in the niche subgenre sometimes known as horror-punk (misfits, cramps, etc), with their later stuff being more in line with 70s stadium glam rock (Bowie, Queen, the Who). Not that any of this matters all that much, genres/styles are just words we use to describe how we associate things, they aren't hard and fast rules and I'm sure if you asked someone else they might have different answers for you. But I hope that at least was somewhat helpful for you, thanks for stopping by!

@@poetryonplastic thank you for all the answers! mcr and hawthorne heights i just mentioned for the themes in their lyrics being similar, but i'd say the same for silverstein, mcr, and hawthorne heights on their music style. i started searching back towards such as orchid to see if i could find more songs that sound like this. they have 2 songs (demos) but the songs are amazing in my opinion. after all the searching i think i would call these guys screamo and post-hardcore. i wouldn't call it emo, emocore, or metalcore since it's hardcore or punk tones, resembles 1998/1998 screamo and not early 90's screamo, and it doesn't have double bass or metal drumming. i'm currently remastering their 2 songs. i'm hoping to get them wanting to play again, but i think they were only a band around 2005 or so, not really sure. What genre or genres do you think their songs are? if the link doesn't work, the band is Farewell to Ashlyn. only 2 songs up should be "Colossus" and "Under the Facade" thanks man! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qZOCo5yqmafRfY0.html

@@stevethepirate Oh this is good! This band reminds me of Anatomy of a Ghost, Mozart Season, or maybe Ambry. I feel like this specific sound got really popular for a hot minute in the early 2000s (mostly in the Northeast/Midwest) but then went away super quick. Kind of emo, kind of pop punk, kind of hardcore.

@@poetryonplastic awesome! i honestly haven't heard of any of those bands so that's probably going to be amazing haha. so far it's been orchid, saetia thanks to this video, funeral diner, and i'm revisiting horse the band XD R. Borlax album haha oh! here's the second song. it hits this amazing chorus, then after that it's got it's own thing going on and each part flows and builds into the next. then the outro has some of my favorite clean dueling guitar of all time. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nbRhrbCn1azNhXU.html

Because of the experimentation, I would probably label more so as post hardcore. Such an amazing album; the incredibly melodic and cathartic moments still give me shivers.

Carlos Olguin I think what you’d describe as “pop-screamo” was really more like modern post-hardcore with a poppy spin. The clueless mainstream rock press erroneously called bands like Thursday and Glassjaw screamo because they had heard the term but didn’t really know about the underground scene it came from. They just needed a way of differentiating the slightly heavier stuff from bands like Dashboard and Taking Back Sunday.

@@VCCassidy what about Thursday band got influence by underground emo/screamo band Heroin in early 90s

@MemesAreDreams I just checked it out and indeed it is. Thanks!

I haven't heard many German bands, but I love Yage!

@@poetryonplastic yage are awesome. Give the ones mentioned above a chance. Theres a lot great and passionate screamo to discover.

music professor ! Discogs.com is all you need

i would prefer to buy from a record label to support the band

music professor ! I get it. Those bands labels are probably still around. But as you get deeper into the genre you will find that most of the labels dont exist anymore.

Alan Acula father figure is sick check out two knights same vocalist

@@governmentgape I love Two Knights. I actually heard them first before Father Figure. Haha
