over 700 full lengths, eps and compilations of emo in all it's variability. everything from late 90's german stuff. midwest classics, hardcore southeastern, westcoast more poppy stuff and a boat fuck of obscure single 7"s.

there is more than mineral and cap'n jazz!!!









































if you have specific sounds you like and want mixes, i'll be more than happy!

also, for late 90's-2000's screamo: http://www.mediafire.com/screamoisdead more than circle takes the square and l'quiete.

holy crap.

i figured just to make a thread for this stuff, because the 20 bands i posted in "emo from 2000-now" thread turned into a my chemical romance / taking back sunday appreciation thread.

<3 you for this

holy shit...this is going to take a while to dig through

and hey, Bells On Trike! they were pretty cool

Yeah I haven't heard of a lot of this stuff sadly. Any major recommendations?

I've had this bookmarked for months. Thanks, bro.

most of what i have on wax can be found in there, but here is my list if anyone wants to check out a specific band: http://deadformat.net/tradelist/boyslife

also, tell me what styles you're into if you want recommendations.

I'm looking for more Emo similar to Mineral. Also anything upbeat in the vein of The first two promise ring albums

i honestly listened the a mineral LP for a few tracks and got rid of it. i couldn't get into it.

i have a copy of the february 7" laying around that i don't want if you wanna make an offer on that. in good condition.


upbeat emo stuff, most of the stuff from 97+ in westcoast and some michigan/chicago area. it's a little on the indie-rock / pop-punk side but check out:

100 words for snow (really poppy, corny lyrics but nice groovy, driving stuff)
passenger train proposal (a lot of build ups into some nice fast paced pop-punk riffs, get their 7", it rules.)
luck of aleia (had a six song 10" on crank! that is really really good indie-rock emo. one of my personal favorites)
the snacks (they only did a split with the emo band tipping canoe who were a little more on the harsh side of emo. but they are male/female vocals with super catchy stuff, short tracks but really good.)
stratego (i think if these guys came out ten years later they would've been huge, think jazz june if they were on no idea)

that and get the compilations : ground rule double 2xLP on divot records, polyvinyl's direction LP+7" and cranks! don't forget to breath LP+10".
and "ooh do i love you" 2xCD (benefit for sexual violence) it is probably the best summary of mid 90's midwest sound. that's probably up your ally.

i have no idea how to go about recommending bands similar to mineral, i could never get into them and wasn't into that style.

I just wanna say: FUCKING THANK YOU. I found account months ago and I love it. If I want to find an album that's one of the first places I go.

Do you also run ScreamoIsDead?

Everyone listen to Agna Moraine's Autobiography. Grab it all, I guarantee you won't be disappointed, unless the vocals get on your nerves, and if they do, you should just listen to something boring instead.

in your Screamo is Dead account you have the same Stop It!! demo posted twice, once as 7 song demo and once as This Is What It Sounds Like When Doves Cry, which was just a different name for that release.

it's not my creation haha!

i don't really like most screamo and haven't touched much in there, but i figured i might as well post it in here as well.

Ah, I thought you had compiled these. Thanks for posting them though, I downloaded a ton of stuff that I had missing last night

Is the Harriet the Spy - God Gave Us... 10" the greatest 10" of all time? I'm pretty sure it is.

Holy shit I have not listened to Harriet The Spy in forever. I have Unfuckwithable and I used to fuckin' love it a few years ago. Needs another listen I think!

bells on trike 10" takes the cake for me, or that moonraker 10". but harriet the spy rules. i got that 10" for $8.

send me trade listsssss

I haven't updated my list in years, but I would really like to overhaul it.

Speaking of Moonraker, I've got an extra copy of the 10" if anyone would want to buy/trade for it.
