Castevet - Summer Fences

Chicago’s Castevet play some of the most seriously challenging beard-rock one can think of. The quartet have the gruff, typically No Idea-esque vocal roar down pat, but they’re not backing it up with the usual set of three chords doused in whiskey. There’s something lighter and more intricate backing that roar up, and that’s a juxtaposition that makes for a really unique sound.”

Castevet’s first full length “Summer Fences” was released on Count Your Lucky Stars records in June of 2009.

If you haven't heard of this band yet... you will. One of the most brilliant acts to come up. I think, its like Men as Trees meets Cap'n Jazz. Awesome post-rock, emo, and math rock parts. I'm so pumped just listing to this...

The Blue Letter - Prima Facie

In a time when the hardcore scene has been confined to breakdowns and guitar squeals; and fashion has seemed to become more important than ideas and music, The Blue Letter challenges stereotypes and genre boundaries with explosive textured soundscapes. Their music is passionate and dynamic, layered with hoarse screamy vocals and soft interludes. As of August 4th,2007,The Blue Letter has begun the search for a new bass player.
The Blue Letter found a new bass player in 2008, Blake from Me and Him Call it Us “Blake from meandhimcallitus has joined the band playing bass. His move here from Atlanta, GA in February made the triforce complete, and so far our practices together have displayed a level of cohesion that not even The Blue Letter has ever experienced before.” - Blue Letter Myspace Blog

-Another really good post rock screamo CD. Moved in 98 is breath taking. The whole album is beautiful yet full of raw passion. People showing their love for this music by throwing everything they've got at it. Get this CD.

Excellent post-rock screamo, this is a hard style to find and these guys do it really well. This album is beautiful, some of the riffs are God like. Check it

Captain, Your Ship Is Sinking - S/T EP

Captain, your ship is sinking from Hengelo, Netherlands started out in 2007. They play something like Envy or Burst, recorded a self-released demo which you can hear on this page or download*, and likes to play shows.

Very good Post-Rock Screamo. The recording is a little rough, but over all the cd is great. Would suggest it for anyone who likes Mesa Verde or the Black heart rebellion.
