Managra- Modern Day Rememberance

Managra was an early 90s band from the MI scene that was pretty much forgotten except for a handful of bands (Ordination of Aaron, Broken Hearts are Blue). It's some fucked up combination of post-hardcore and 90s emotional hardcore, and it totally brings the awesome, awesome pain.

Spazzy instruments n' stuff, yo.

Quest for Quintana Roo- Collected Works

So this is like finding a giant box of porn in the woods when you were a little kid, except better. Somehow this completely flew under my fucking radar, and apparently 6 months or so ago, a dude from Quest for Quintana Roo uploaded EVERYTHING THEY EVER FUCKING DID. Seriously this is one the happiest things I've found in a long fucking time.

Quest for Quintana Roo played pretty much some of the best emotional hardcore that side of the Mississippi (pretty sure they were from Oakland, and this side of the Mississippi would be the east coast for me). They pretty much nail everything right on the point with shit I love.

They're on of my favorites, and they deserve your ears. If you're too busy being a cry baby bitch to download it, at least listen to the song Statement to the Statesmen and tell me that it doesn't rule. FUCKING TELL ME IT DOESNT RULE.

Man in the Shadow- Discography

Crazy good emotive hardcore/screamo/whatever band from Solvenia. I feel pretty lucky to stumble upon this band, as they fucking shred hard and have some awesome songs. The recording is raw, gritty, and makes their discography just that much fucking better. Band reminds me of something straight out of the 80s emotive hardcore shit.

They also seem to have a hint of crust/bm in their sound. Although the bm thing is only on one song.

it rules, you need.

Greyhouse- 1991-1997

Greyhouse were a pretty fuck awesome 90s emotive hardcore band that played music that sounded a lot like Hoover and Lincoln. If you don't know who Hoover and Lincoln are, then stop missing the fuck out and get some Hoover and Lincoln, and some Greyhouse while you're at it.

Disc 1
Disc 2

Damezumari

This band knows whats up. I wish they could secure a drummer though so they could go on tour and stuff like that. Apparently they have a new 7" coming out in September. Here is some of my favorite stuff by them. But really, like best emo band ever material.

Split w/ Fire Team Charlie
Hitherandthitheringwaters of
The Politics of Lonely
No Hugging, No Learning
Split w/ Steeples and Someplace to Hide

The Nightmare Scenario Discography

This is something fucking special. Late 90s emotive hardcore/screamo. Guitar work and drumming is incredibly and the spoken word vocals contrast incredibly well with the screams. Lyrics are amazing as well.

Damezumari/Fire Team Charlie- Split

I may have been a little brash in my last post saying that that Split LP was in fact the greatest ever made. In all reality, it's the 2nd greatest, 2nd to this.

Fire Team Charlie and Damezumari are both emotive hardcore bands that really push every emotion they have through their instruments. It stirs something inside me everytime I listen to it, and is probably some of the greatest shit ever made.

Also, Mind Implosion is pretty much the greatest fucking track ever.
