The Smile

So, it's been a while. Heck, well I've been busy.
This is a great screamo release from a Canadian band out of Toronto, lots of chaos.
It was released on this great independent (now defunct) record label Gorgeous Industries, who's other bands I hope to follow up this post with.
They are now called "Authors" but since they were "The Smile" when I bought this record (2007), that's how I'm posting it!

ISIS

I just finished two all-nighters in a row so fuck it, this is what last.fm has to say:

"Formed in Boston in 1997, Isis is a band that combines ambience, atmosphere, and aggression to form a unique style of metal music. Isis draws from post-rock, which leans away from the traditional elements of choruses, verses, repetitive vocals, or fast/repetitive riffs. Compared to many post-rock bands, though, Isis displays more hardcore and sludge influence (especially in their pre-Celestial era)."

Good night.

Amanda Woodward

From Caen, France. Blending solid riffs and dynamic tempos into a delicious French screamo smoothie, these guys know how to make some tasty tunes.
This band does screamo right.

Do yourself a solid a get in on this.
Maybe you'll even learn some French in the process.

Blacklisted

Of all the modern hardcore bands that are currently making music, Blacklisted is my favorite. In a genre where releasing the same sounding album over and over is often celebrated, Blacklisted has found a way to successfully progress their music tastefully. 

I would encourage anyone who is downloading these albums to listen to them chronologically. It's like watching your older brother going from an irate, violent teenager to being in a straitjacket before reaching the age of 30. 

For fans of Terror/American Nightmare/Old Every Time I Die/Nirvana

Wolf Whistle

This is a band from New Bedford, Mass. It boasts members from xFILESx and the vocal stylings of Patrick Flynn from Have Heart.

Fast. Pissed. To the point.

Pg. 99 (Pageninetynine)

This post was inevitable.

Sustaining at least two lead vocalists, pageninetynine played shows during their 4 year history with from 6 to 14 band members at one time.
This band was busy, influential, and talented, and is certainly coming highly recommended (by me).
