i struggle to explain common methods used in screamo (skramz) guitar playing/writing for about ten minutes. probably most informative if you have already been playing guitar for a little bit.

You should try emulating bands in the subgenre you're looking for. Learn to play their songs first, then take what you learn from that into writing your own stuff. Eventually you can find your own voice and style that is uniquely yours, but still pays homage to the music that inspired you. Pro Tip: 'Screamo' isn't a real subgenre. You're probably looking for hardcore, post hardcore, or metalcore. Calling it screamo music is often seen as cringey and disrespectful.

@@newa0nn calling it screamo isnt really "cringery or disrespectful" tho. A lot of bands have adopted the "Skramz" titling to loosely identify the sound that they play and Skramz in itself is a pretty known sub-genre of punk at this point. I mean it's having one of it's biggest revival now with a lot of new bands and big bands that aren't strictly traditional Skramz, but Skramz-influenced sound. Like a good example would be Portrayal Of Guilt's earlier work, with them labelling themselves as Blackened-Skramz, although they have shifted heavily on the Black Metal side lately. So essentially screamo/skramz is an actually sub-genre used to define sounds that are popularized by bands like pageninetynine, rites of springs, jeromes dream, etc

If you could do more videos breaking down more of the specifics of what your doing in these rifts, that would be killer. Im a music theory guy and theres all kinds of stuff id like to pick what sorts of harmony techniques are implimented in screamo. Theres alot more interesting stuff going on in the genre than most people seem to realize. Also this tuning seems really interesting. CGCGCEb right?

Yeah I don't think they are the only band doing it, but I do like their sound, the melding of a lot of subgenres that were considered fairly disparate maybe 10-15 years ago is pretty cool. There's always been metalcore/screamo crossover acts (the critic comes to mind), but it's def getting bigger these days.

the word screamo was definitely used around 2000, but like emo, no band wanted to be called that. skramz is something i heard for the first time way after 2010. i only heard skramz used by kids that weren't even born when most those bands were around. most bands would insist on just being hardcore bands. labels would be used to describe the sound. you had gravity, ebullition, gold standard labs, dim mak and such, which would tell you more about the style of hardcore they played. neither screamo nor skramz were really endemic genre descriptions.

@@yrgettingnicereveryday "often misapplied" is very generous. Moms learned the word emo and attributed that word with: moody, wears black clothes and eyeliner, doesn't talk much, stays in their room listening to sad/angry music, writes in their journal a lot" Then came the advent of "how can you listen to that noise, they aren't even singing" once they heard screaming in the music. Screaming was very much considered an invalid vocal technique. To describe the screaming music their emo children were listening to, they invented the catch-all term 'screamo' People who use it today either don't understand musical genres in rock/metal or are trying to retcon the word in despite its origin
