Jeromes Dream

Jeromes Dream were a Connecticut screamo three piece and one of the most influential hardcore bands of all time.
The band released two albums (Seeing Means More than Safety and Presents) and a bunch of splits with bands like Orchid and Usurp Synapse.

On their earlier records and shows, singer Jeff Smith didn't use a mic while performing which became a kind of trademark for JD.

For their second album, Presents, all screams were replaced by some kind of "megaphone" vocals with a lot of effects. This stylistic shift was rumored to be a product of the vocal chord damage their singer had sustained while performing.

On this record you can clearly tell the difference between the shrieking vocals of old JD and the
vocals of post-Presents.

Envy (エンヴィ)

Since their formation in 1992, Envy has become a dominant band in the independent hardcore and screamo scene in Japan. Their music has evolved over the years to incorporate hardcore, screamo, and most recently, the epic tendencies of post-rock. Envy is characterized by their ability to master screamo’s loud-soft dynamic to evoke both crushing brutality and gentle beauty, often within the same song.

The band has become increasingly popular among the post rock scene in the last few years for their incorporation of Mogwai-esque sound and composition dynamics into more traditional screamo songs.


On their newest output, Recitation, Envy continues to blend their trademark epic soundscapes with parts of chaotic hardcore.

Anemone

Anemone was a pretty short-lived band from Tierp, Sweden. They released one demo, one full-lenght and one split with the French band Taciturn. Some of the members have now gone on to form the equally awesome band Via Fondo which I will hopefully get to upload in the near future. Enjoy!
