In First Person - Lost Between Hands Held Tight

Screamo album from 2006 with vocal duties split between male and female members blah blah one of these song titles is a Kanye West joke.

Get it here.

Minnow - The Sound Of Urban Folk

Not screamo, but decent post-hardcore. Another shortlived band, like every band in the genre. This band had a really good bass sound going on.

Get it here.

Nothing Left To Grasp - Demo Tape

The first (and only) demo tape by Nothing Left To Grasp. More songs than their entire released discography combined.

Get it here.

Nothing Left To Grasp / Kassiopeia Split 7"

Split 7" between two very short lived German screamo bands. Both bands have released one 7" before doing this split, and nothing else. I do have a Nothing Left To Grasp demo tape which I'll upload later.

Get it here.

Gone With The Pain / Optimus Prime Split CD

Half Russian screamo (Optimus Prime) and half Spanish screamo (Gone With The Pain). I really cant say a lot more about these bands, besides that Optimus Prime is kind of disappointing compared to Gone With The Pain.

Get it here!

Dead City / Funeral Diner Split 12"

This is Dead City's only release, and to be honest, I don't really like them that much. It's kinda crust punky I guess? It's a genre I usually dig but Dead City isn't too great.
Funeral Diner's side though. Really good. Wearing Thin is a jam.
There's also several different album covers for this release.

Get it here.

Shahrazad - Untitled EP (End Of The Line)

This is filed as both "Untitled" and "End Of The Line", since End Of The Line is the first track on the 7". Raw, lo-fi, pretty okay.

Get it here.

In Loving Memory - As Years Pass And Feel Like Seconds

Really chaotic screamo, high pitched screeched vocals. I guess you could call them similar to Jeromes Dream in a way. This was their first full lenght released on CDr in 2000.

Get it here.

Dispensing Of False Halos - With Prayers And A Scalpel

First CD by Iowa screamo band featuring members from In Loving Memory and Eclipse Of Eden. They also did a really good split 7" with Calling Gina Clark, which I'll upload eventually.

Get it here.

Mahria - Selftitled

Female fronted US screamo. As far as I know this is their only full-lenght effort, besides a split 10" with Todos Caeran and a split 7" with Watcher.

I hope you're into yelling women.

Devar-toi - Selftitled

Last.fm actually manages to say everything I want to say about this band:
"Devar-toi is/was an screamo band who sounds like Circle Takes The Square but without Kathy Coppola."

Maybe buy this somewhere sometime.
I currently have to improvise a way to not just paste my links here, since lix.in isnt working for me.
I'm hosting all the links as a .txt file on dropbox until I figure this out. The links in the posts should link to the download URL.

Jeromes Dream - Seeing Means More Than Safety

Probably some of the most chaotic screamo you'll hear. Jeff Smith did all his vocals on this album without any form of amplification, just screaming his lungs out (literally).

Jeff Smith also has a pretty big mouth

Kwisatz Haderach - Selftitled 7"

US screamo/emoviolence. Goes p. hard. I am not very good at blogging like this.
