A band that lasted from 1998 to 1999. Excellent screamo-based music, with bits of emo and hardcore thrown in. They only put out one short five song release called Three Days 'Til Christmas. I admire their song structures.

Also known as: iwrotehaikusaboutcannibalisminyouryearbook. Fun band name for a fun band. Screamo from Cali. Broken up a while ago.
Their discography has about 21 songs or so. 95% of which are untitled. If you interested, listen to more than just a couple of songs on their myspace. Ex members of this now play with the likes of Punch, Who Calls So Loud, and Beau Navire.

Deers! is a screamo band from Sacramento. They have a song called "birdsBirdsBIrdsBIRdsBIRDsBIRDS" in case you wanted to know. Give them a listen, but since screamo is so varied, you won't know if you like them until you try them out for a while. Pretty high-pitched vocals. They have a 2008 Demo and a split with Matsuri and a split with Ordstro (and maybe more?).

Sailboats
Sailboats was an incredibly short lived band from California. They only have two legitimate songs. Both are fast, heavy and hard hitting hardcore, with fucking intense vocals. Uber intense. Their demo has two full songs and two partial songs. The latter tunes are very obscure and off on a totally different tangent from the full songs. Anywho, listen to these boys on their myspace. All the stuff worth listening to is there. If you like it, find it. I think some of these folks went on to play in Loma Prieta, which is tight.

Loma Prieta playing "Behind Trees"
Loma Prieta
Loma Prieta is a screamo band from San Fran. Listened to them on my run today. A derivative of Sailboats with lots more material. They have quite a few releases, which have all been compiled into their 05-09 Discography (not including the recently released Dark Mountain). Check that shit out.

Loma Prieta performing "Scream Triathlon"
Just got back from a run. Pretty sure its over 90 outside.
How to describe Frivolvol: pretty fun, fast stuff to put it in broad terms. Most definitely a breed of hardcore of some sort, with bits of screamo involved. Very distinct vocals too. Sort of reminiscent of Blood Brothers vocals. That in itself could easily put you off, but still, give these guys a try. They hail from somewheres in Finland. I reccomend trying out the song "Take it from the Beginning." If you like, then try out the album Who Needs Maps When We Got Time. Merch and that shit can be obtained by contacting Rabbit Ilsn. Or Amazon I guess. Who knows.
