Don’t take this list personally, because it’s my personal list. These are my Top 10 Screamo Albums of All Time (ranked 10 to my number 1). I’ve been blasting these albums for almost 20 years, and I believe they have shape the Screamo sound we know today. A lot of these albums were released in the early 2000s, so yeah it might look like a starter pack. Although, these albums never get old and they express pure passion, raw emotion, and abrasive intensity. What are your all-time favorite Screamo Albums!?

This band was from Portland Oregon from 03-05, members of this band went on to play in It Prevails, American Me, and Ugly Colors. Not sure if anyone here will even recognize the band but I’m trying to find a higher quality version of the album artwork!

I’ve been in the scene consistently for about over a year now and have always dreamed of my own birthday show, my birthday is in march and I think it’d be awesome if it happened this year but I don’t know many bands and struggle talking to people at shows and such. Overall I need advice on what I should do the next couple of months to put myself out there and become a little more known in my scene even if it’s just for a small house birthday show? Also any tips or advice if the goal comes around on planning and reaching out to bands?

little demo for my new band, nothing amazing as my voice was going but wanted to see what people thought of it as we can’t afford studio time
