• If there’s one thing I know in this life: we are beggars all.
  • At times so self destructive with no intent or motive, but behind this emotion, there lies a sensible heart.
  • I’m in no shape for a new day, I'm in no mood for a better place or a fix or your pretty face. I’m just not in the mood.
  • Say something and close the door, And break the silence in our room, Hold your breath, let you through, Just for a moment this is our shelter.
  • With your hands wide open, 
Renew the days we all thought lost, 
Renew the days, 
Let go, 
Release, revolve, renew
  • don’t even try, 
to maximize these plans, 
I steal, 
I catch this wind, 
after all of my lies, 
don’t you dare fall for, 
how I could be depends, 
on the cold you bring
  • And if my heart just stops, keep me alive for a minute.
I want to know if a curtain drops.
  • So I don't care if you dance well
'cause fashion can't replace content and passion is lost between scene points and greasy hair.
  • I speak in sarcasm to relate to all the things I appreciate
I lie in rhythm to open doors I follow suit and just want more
  • Stay tame, soft river, while we weigh our faith, stay sweet, run softly, sweet river, the fool who wades in doubt will float like concrete.
  • You're the yellow bird that I've been waiting for.
  • New wars. New kings. The pigs came here to take everything. No wars. No kings. We gotta stop the blood-letting.
  •  I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees, I'd rather die on my feet so you can WATCH ME RISE
  • I took the whole damn ride, with my best friends by my side, the days turned into nights and we held on with all our might
  • what the fuck are you so afraid of? as strong as lions but you never showed your fucking teeth.

Touché Amoré UPDATE + NEW!

Touché Amoré are a thought provoking, passionate hardcore/punk band from Los Angeles, California. From the first strikes of their angular yet melodic chords, it's apparent that Touché Amoré have awoken something long since forgotten in the hardcore/punk genre. Within each song they build an awe inspiring musical tension while impassioned vocalist Jeremy Bolm's shouts resonate, ripe with intellectual introspection. This collective outpouring of traditional hardcore anger and emotional hardcore openness ultimately coalesces into something beautiful, vulnerable, and refreshingly real. In my opiniopn they're one of the most promising and unique HC band nowadays. Must-have!

Death Cab For Cutie


Death Cab for Cutie is an American indie rock band formed in Bellingham, Washington in 1997. The band consists of Ben Gibbard (vocals, guitar, piano), Chris Walla (guitar), Nicholas Harmer (bass), and Jason McGerr (drums). I think introduction is unnecessary, great and unique indie rock/alternative band.

Pale Sketcher / Jesu


In 2010 Justin decided to separate the two directions of his band - Jesu, now, and for the forseeable future, being guitar based exclusively, with Pale Sketcher being the project where he can focus and develop further, the Jesu ‘electronica’ sound, without need for further fusion or compromise. In 2011 he recorded and released new albums of both projects - as he said Pale Sketcher is that electronic side...

...and Jesu is that other side. But in my opinion, now it's different band. When something that amazing, complex and so complete like Jesu was divided, for me as a longtime fan, it's really hard to get used to that change. But it's still good album, different, little odd, but somehow great.

This Will Destroy You NEW!


This Will Destroy You was formed by guitarists Chris King and Jeremy Galindo, bassist Raymond Brown and drummer Andrew Miller in San Marcos, Texas, in 2005. Through all these years the band has grown and now the sound has metamorphosized into something so much deeper and unconventional. New album is more drone, darker, away from truly post-rock sounds. You should expect the unexpected from them.

Maps & Atlases


If math rock would have some limits then this band certainly overstep them. The band’s unique style melds the technicality of progressive music and the idiosyncrasies of art rock into a fascinating and oddly accessible sound all their own. They're really great instrumentalists. Some people are saying that the vocals doesn't quite work, but I feel they match their style perfectly. It's just so summery, warm and colorful.

So Hideous, My Love...


Yearning for a sound that could encapsulate both the epic tendencies of classical music and post-rock with the raw emotionality of hardcore and black metal, So Hideous, My Love… from New York, United States was conceived by composer / guitarist Brandon Cruz in the winter of 2008. Early 2009 saw Jack Marshall, Rob Browning and Jose Marmolejos join the project, each bringing a unique playing style and musical perspective. So Hideous, My Love... is a quite fresh and new phenomenon on the screamo scene so interestic and characteristic in their own style.

Cостояние птиц


Have you ever heard something like that? A mixture of agressive screamo, with spatial post-metal, straightforward hardcore and melancholic post-rock with violin? Here it is! Cостояние птиц (which can be translated as 'birds state of soul') is a group from Saint Petersburg, Russia formed in 2009/2010. It’s pretty hard to unequivocally characterize the genre of the group and I think, that those tags I wrote describe them only in some small part. Much better shoud be have first-hand experience. Check them out!

Arctic Whisperings


Icelandic Arctic Whisperings manage to combine beautifully quiet found sounds & field recordings from chilling landscapes with some of the most delicate and creative instrumental arrangements. Cinematic delayed & reverberated guitars drift and soar into the frozen air like glaciers slowly melting into the ocean. The percussive sound of drums and bass pulsate like volcanos on the verge of eruption as the quiet tone of the vocals gently paint the soundscapes of these arctic whisperings. Paying homage to the many tribes of the Arctic, this debut EP is called óvænt lán and gives an insight into the life of these simplistic ways of life. Soundscapes influenced by the beautifully desolate landscapes and sounds of the chilling arctic echos of the northern world.

Heart On My Sleeve


Heart On My Sleeve are a new started Screamo band from Stockholm, Sweden, with former members of Followed by 37 seconds of happiness & The Hope & The Failure. And you can definatly hear the sound from their former bands! The last one I've mentioned is one of my favourites from genre, so I am so glad about this release.

Jeudah


800 kilometers apart. The two members of Jeudah, vocalist Jan Jämte (also in Khoma) and instrumentalist Kristian Karlsson (also in pg.lost), hasn't had that many chances to meet in person. Instead the sound of Jeudah has been forged through a long-distance relationship built around countless of hours of talking and experimenting alone in front of microphones and amplifiers. The result is a sound that encompasses vulnerability, heaviness and epic soundscapes - all in a straightforward, melodic manner. "When Kristian sent me a few songs 2008 I immediately felt there was a musical connection. Sometimes you don't have to talk a lot, or spend hour after hour in a rehearsal room. You just hear it and know what to do. So I started to sing." says Jan. The final effect is really astounding. If You like pg. lost and Khoma, You have a mixture of these bands. Everything best from each one of them in one substance.

Calisota


Calisota consists of Olle Bilius, the guitar, bass, keyboards and backing vocalist for Jeniferever. It comes to no surpise that Billus explored to do a 3-track mini EP by himself given the amount of support and influence he drives into Jeniferever’s sound. To highlight this, much of the keyboard that sticks with me so well can also be found on Calisota’s self-titled EP. This is Bilius’ first solo effort, but it couldn’t be made as fantastic as it is without guest appearences from skilled fellow bandmates Ida Peterson Hallmén (Vocals, Piano), Rikard Linder (Drums, Vocals, Percussion), Mattias Jonsson (Acoustic Guitar) and Ellinor Peterson Hallmén(Clarinet). For me it's really great solo debut: soft melancholic, but also catchy and easy-listening - check this out!
