alright, so first off my hammie benjo bribed his students with pizza to go down to this printing press to give a presentation to some LACE and PS-1 big wigs at this printing press. he showed me their art which is pretty cool. its like all goth and shit, (oh, i forgot to mention he teaches at roosevelt in boyle heights), yeah so its all goth and this one student draws these vampy chicks and dudes and cuts them out and pastes them to regular binder paper that usually has music lyrics or some shit on it. a lot of the times its the band garbage, their lyrics. yeah so anyways its totally napoleon dynamite stylee. so then there's this one napoleon dynamite thing that's totally NOT from the eastside. like you can tell some middle class kid drew it cuz its all cutesy and hip and shit and really refined. here it is
and i was like "hey benjo, them museum pussies are gonna pick this one" i mean, museums dont want that raw shit normally. every once in a while theyll take a gamble, but for the most part they want that suburban malaise bullshit. that shit that emulates some rawness, but has been refined after countless hours and dollars at art school. of course, nowadays, museums are tapping into the mental retard market. yeah, ever since that one dude, i forget his name, but he was all crazy and shit and had countless volumes of weird pictures, henry darger or something? yeah, well anyways, i also saw somewhere that some museum was scouting mental institutions and scoping out the hook rug art at one of these joints. so yeah, its the mental patient art, and this bourgeois high school art that is like the HOT shit right now.but i digress, this is about SCREMO. ever hear of SCREMO? yeah. me neither. so my boy benjo was telling me that they had a battle of the bands at his school and since its like 99.9999999% latino, there were a lot of emo/goth bands. but there was also a lot of scremo. he had to have his students explain it to him but its just like emo music where the dude screams a lot. id like to hear some of this. anyone have any?

Good question. I want Schnipper to write reviews for waxidermy. If I had money I'd pay him.
what are you talking about? i havent didnt mention anything about food this whole week.
a all food graemlin smorgasbord.
mmmmmmmm. smorgasbord
hmm. so its exactly what it sounds like. does this mean pearl jam is scremo? thats rather lame-o. theyre grunge, dogg!
no, it's not like Pearl Jam - it's all kinda like weak metal riffs with screaming but then it goes into quiet, sensative parts. I guess it helps them "poke it out", maybe?
A Swedish word meaning "sandwich table."
Kinda lame in the literal sense.

'mall punk' and 'rap metal' are far worse
this stuff has been around since the early 90s
I've said it a million billion trillion times. These pink/black/white color schemes have to done get gone. Come on my people. To all the 'graphic designers' out there, cut that shit out.
really? well then, i guess the jokes on you.
this is the OG Danish Sm??rrebr??d[/b]:
... and yes, you have to have a beer and a shot of Akvavit with it
sorry, don't know anything about SCREMO.... kinda sounds like something you make in your pants.
He knows all about punk and scremo!
These dudes are like the poster boys of screamo, it seems like they're always on Fuse TV when I'm channelsurfing:
Straight edge screamo?
is it safe to assume that if you have this kind of hairsteez, you are indeed scremo?
Basically I always understood scremo to be like emo in that it's very self-reflective and inward-thinking, usually lamenting in some way, and emotional (obviously.) Scremo just takes that, and adds screaming. But in a soft, sensitive, there's-sand-in-my-vagina kind of way.
id rather be forced listened to the suspect rap some people recommend on here than to even hear a second of this shit
No, the screaming that Hawthorne Heights dude does is straight up Cookie Monster death metal-like steez.
stupid boy
(waaaaooooooh)
stupid stupid boyeee
and its ancient, too...not some new thing. c'mon.
hawthorne heights = screamo? uh....no.
by the way, that rap shit sucks. have you heard that shit? mc hammer and vanilla ice? fuck that rap shit.
I am by no means a screamo expert, hence my simple formula above.
So I will defer to you, plaese to give examples of screamo, por favor.
screamo has been around longer than these haircuts you see on fuse, and is pretty removed from this alexisonfire crap that's real popular in orange county. it's basically taking stuff like indian summer, current, drive like jehu, etc. and mixing it with hardcore.
