Reversal of Man

2009-10-03T07:44:00.000-07:00

One of my favorites. ROM delivers up emo violence with lots of speed and anger.
"Get the kid with the sideburns"!!!

Arsen AKA König Der Monster

2009-10-01T06:53:00.000-07:00

Really abrasive screamo from Germany. Taking cues from Union of Uranus, Acme, HHIG and Orchid they create some heavy and dark music.

Black Sunday
No Gods, Just Monsters

New band featuring members from Arsen... is Resurrectionists. IMO not as good as Arsen.. but still in the same bulldozerstyled hardcore.

Grinding Halt

2009-10-01T04:51:00.000-07:00

Dutch Neocrust. Members where in Shikari (!!!), the Last Mile and other bands. Their demo has a real 90s emo/screamo sound which you wouldnt expect when you listen to their later output.
There's a song for their upcoming release on their myspace. Check it out!

Masshysteri

2009-09-30T06:11:00.001-07:00

Var Del Av Stan

Rise & Fall

2009-09-30T06:05:00.001-07:00

Dark metallic hardcore from our neighbours (Belgium fyi). New album rules, they expand their sound with some postrock-ish influences.

Clawing

Coming Up For Air

2009-09-30T06:01:00.000-07:00

Young dudes from Germany (Köln) making chaotic posthardcore in the vein of Hot Cross, The Fall of Troy. They create a sound of their own though so don't expect copy/paste music.

http://www.myspace.com/comingupforair
Protagonauts

I Hate You

2009-09-27T07:02:00.000-07:00

Not the best hardcoreband around, but this discography has some some killersongs (Way Back When f.e.). Members went on to play in: American Nightmare, Damage, Knives Out, Me Without You, and Champion.

Discography

Pohgoh

2009-09-27T06:57:00.000-07:00

90s Indie/emo with female vocals. This doesn't make you Pogo, but it's very nice nonetheless. (Yeah I made a cheesy joke).

www.myspace.com/pohgoh
All Along
In Memory of Bab

Requested

2009-09-27T05:24:00.000-07:00

Some classical stuff was requested. I guess I don't have to fill you in. Dag Nasty and Gorilla Biscuits are in the top league of melodic hardcore punk and Ceremony is one of the best of hardcorebands of this era.

Dag Nasty - Can I Say
Gorilla Biscuits - selftitled
Gorilla Biscuits - Start Today
Ceremony - Scared People

Lewd / Laatste Halte

2009-09-16T11:27:00.000-07:00

This is my band's demo. It's 100% DIY, we recorded it at our drummers home. We were called Lewd, but changed that to Laatste Halte (dutch for Last Stop). We've written new songs (better ones) which are headed into this weird mix of Shikari, Mörser, Pig Destroyer and La Quiete.

www.myspace.com/laatstehalte
Lewd - A Gun... It Makes Me Wanna Dance Demo

Amesoeurs / Alcest

2009-09-07T05:36:00.000-07:00

French blackmetal meets shoegaze,postrock and postpunk. Both bands are from this guy called Neige. I really like Amesoeurs, but Alcest is nice if you're into softer / more postrock stuff.
!!! I also uploaded the new album from Amesoeurs

Union of Uranus

2009-09-06T07:21:00.000-07:00

Screamo/Crust/Hardcore, I don't know what to label it, except for 'Awesome'. The guitarplayer from this band (Yannick) also was (is) in legendary crustband His Hero is Gone and Tragedy. This band would be highly influential on bands like Acme, Rorschach and Shikari (and lots more of course).

To This Bearer of Truth

Aclys

2009-09-06T07:14:00.000-07:00

German metal/hardcore started in the late 90's. Apparently they share a member with Caliban. Their first album is my favorite (Helduntergang).

Tour CD

Asshole Parade

2009-08-29T06:51:00.000-07:00

Insult

2009-08-29T06:45:00.000-07:00

Insult is a fastcore band from the Netherlands. Think Infest / Charles Bronson with some other influences thrown in. This is their discography with the funny title 'Emo Bashing Fastcore Pimps'.

Emo Bashing Fastcore Pimps

I Spy

2009-08-28T10:57:00.000-07:00

I Spy is a melodic hardcore band from the 90s, they remind me of Lifetime and Kid Dynamite, but a bit harder.

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

2009-08-28T10:54:00.000-07:00

Lucky Fonz III is a dutch singer/songwriter. The download link are his albums 'Life is Short' and a selftitled. I will upload his new album when I get it.
"Next to more obvious influences such as Leonard Cohen and Bright Eyes, it blends classic American song traditions with European elements such as French chanson and British 60s pop."

Deep Wound

2009-08-13T04:47:00.001-07:00

Incredible fast hardcore punk from the 80s. Members went on to form Dinosaur Jr. (!)
This is one of those bands (next to Lärm, Siege and others) which would be a huge influence on powerviolence.

Deep Wound

Mean Season

2009-08-13T04:26:00.000-07:00

Bonobo

2009-08-03T12:33:00.001-07:00

I've been listening to this a lot. This is really loungy stuff.
Last.fm says this:
" Bonobo is Simon Green, British producer, composer, musician and DJ.
With the experimental warmth of ‘60s french films and the pizzicato flavor of breakbeats, Bonobo established a niche of post-party chill-out."
My favorite album is Animal Magic.

http://www.bonobomusic.com/
Bonobo - Days to Come
Bonobo - Dial M for Monkey
Bonobo - One Offs
Bonobo - Animal Magic
Bonobo - Sweetness

Below: a schoolassignment a friend of mine made using a Bonobo song.

The Sonics

2009-08-03T11:58:00.000-07:00

The Sonics are a 60s rock 'n roll band. They got some real killer songs like Strychnine or The Witch.
I uploaded 2 compilations of them (I think).

Luna Silenziosa / Mending Wall

2009-08-03T09:42:00.000-07:00

Part 2
Edit:
Unreleased Songs
These 2 songs were supposed to go on a split with Men As Trees. Didn't happen though.
These songs are allready on 'At the close of every day part 2', but these versions are better, recording quality isn't good though.

Degarne

2009-08-03T02:56:00.000-07:00

Another Per Koro band. You know what to expect: metallic hardcore in the vein of Acme. This is a bit more chaotic and faster then Acme though.
This is 'The Last Dance' 7".

Downloadlink is from http://7inchcrust.blogspot.com/

Betercore

2009-08-02T10:00:00.000-07:00

Jetsex

2009-08-02T08:37:00.000-07:00

Hardcore punk from France. Their sound is pretty much how 80s punkrock/hardcore punk sounds like:
think Angry Samoans (there's a cover of "Gas Chamber on this album) or the Circle Jerks.
Album is called Paris By Night.

The Pine

2009-08-02T08:32:00.000-07:00

Beautifull emo, think the Hated or Evergreen with some modern touches.
This link includes their selftitled album, Days Slipping By, Homeless Life, Don't Need Regret and Lead Blocks For Feet.
I think I also have their split with the Saddest Landscape, so if anyone wants that one I'll upload it to.
