skramz/screamo

[grindcore]

I have just started getting into the screamo scene, and I wanted to know if any other afro punks are also into it. Usually, when I metion screamo to my black friends that do like punk, they think i am talking about that pre-packaged stuff they give you at warped tour like Alesana, or even underoath. I'm talking about la quiete, funeral diner, indian summer, and anasarca or even blood brothers . I guess I am just wondering if you guys are into that,

I also want to know if there are black girls like me that are in screamo bands, or if I am the only one!

Recommendations Please!!!!!!

Screamo, like Emo, has prettymuch been discredited as a ligitimate & respectable genre. There's NOTHING good that can be said about the stuff.

Screamo...aesthetically didn't DMX already do this?

Check out Bearvsshark. The vocalist, switches betweens, barking and singing and randomly screaming. Their music is kinda hard to place. I guess maybe they'd be considered post-hardcore.

I honestly can't think ov a more useless, more un-called for genre than "post hardcore".

I agree. But I think these genre titles just make it easier than saying.. "well this band has a little bit of punk a dash of metal but it also kinda has an art rock vibe but then there's a song with a piano in it and some Fugazi-ish stuff.." I just say post hard core. As in some unnameble genre that came after hardcore but is definately not 100% hardcore.

screamo has it's place...and to me it just means kids are still pioneering music in our country at a healthy speed, whether I like every little genre or not
