Faced Moment - The Timbre. The unsetting Film.


Started as a 3-piece screamo band in 2003, Faced Moment played many shows in Germany, Belgium, France and Luxembourg. In 2004 their released a selftitled album, one year after their demo cd „Leidenschafft“ was recorded and which might still be their most popular work.
After 2 years of playing and furher 2 years of standstill, Faced Moment exchanged their bass player and started with new enthusiasm to create their first full lenght titled „the timbre, the unsettling film.“, which sounds way harder, more mature and less melancholic. It has been recorded in 2009 and a few songs already found their way on Myspace and LastFM. (info taken from last.fm)

Asslranzn - Greatest Hits Re-Mastert / Hinterm Schlebberbusch Platinum MC


Well, this is a strange release. Asslranzn is actually a band without a name or with many names or whatever. According to their label they are just "a very kewl band". And according to their Myspace site they are currently called "Bulldozers of Blood!!!". Whatever. You see, these guys don't take themselves too serious. And so does this music sound like. Probably recorded in a rehearsal room, they play a kind of experimental punk music that really kicks your ass. By the way, members of the band Lara Korona and Life's not like Dawson's Creek record label are here at work.
You can buy this tape for 3 €, but it's sold out at the moment. Will be restocked in November, just check out the label's Myspace site.

Artist: They don't have a steady name :-)

Radare was formed in winter 2008 by members of the chaotic hc bands Actress and Paris. Their sound ranges from down-to-earth post-rock melodies over western tremolo slow-motion blues to to epic doom juggernauts.

Just a breath of air

Hey,
just wanted to tell you that i'm not dead. Neither is my blog - maybe. I'm not interested in screamo that much anymore. It actually becomes boring for me that you never understand a word of the singer (well there are definitely some bands I still love, especially some German ones). But, besides a lot of other styles of music (good hiphop, electro, post-rock, experimental stuff etc), I still love listening to punk and stuff like that. Therefore I think it would be a good thing, according to my blog, to not only concentrate on screamo-ish music but also on other styles, e.g, I guess a lot of you enjoy post-rock and ambient music like I do it.
But I only want to upload music that I really like, so sorry for some stuff sent to me which I didn't upload. By the way, for some time past I got a new email-adress, I forgot to change it here...So if you wanna insult me, show me stuff or just want to tell me something, write to:
-> welchesleben@yahoo.de

Try to feel, try to enjoy your lifes.

Grube und Pendel & November 13th - Split


Yeah as you know, November 13th is one of my favorite hardcore/crust bands from Germany - desperate lyrics meet aggressive hardcore music, that's what I like. This strike here is an older split with the rather unknown band Grube und Pendel, who play a kind of epic post-hardcore mixed with elements of bands like EA80 or Fliehende Stürme. I don't know if this band has ever released some other stuff apart from this song.

Fargo - Flucht nach vorn CD-EP


"Fargo are from Essen and play emoish HC in the vein of good old 90's bands you know from your recordbox! Growning bass structures, d-beating drums, a steamrollering guitar and epic vocals are joined together to 5 new songs. From the starting intro to the transitions, one to the other, all are runny and float into a powerful final. Definitly for fans of Zann, Perth Express or Battle of Wolf 359!"

Mio / Duct Hearts - Split


Another split-7" from Germany. Now it's time for the post-punk/screamo duo Mio from Leipzig and the solo post-rock/atmospheric emo project Duct Hearts from Munich. So there are more labels than band members involved in this release, hehe. Anyhow, if you dig music that is played by hearts full of love and deep thoughts you should check this out. Especially the Duct Hearts song is sooo beautiful! And keep your eyes open for the new split-12'' of Mio and Captain, your ship is sinking.
This upload is from a record-rip I did by myself and something went not so well during the rip. So the quality is not the best, but it's much better than nothing. And if you like it you should buy it anyway, it is worth it. At least I added a txt file with the lyrics and further information.

Eaves & Francis Brady - Split


Nice split by two German emo violence bands that both broke up already.
Francis Brady consisted of 9 (!) members, for example, they had 3 shouters and 3 guitarists. They were founded in summer 2002 and called it a day one year later, after releasing a demo cd-r, a s/t 7'' and this split 7'' with Eaves. One of Francis Brady's shouters later screamed in the meanwhile defunct band Deleometer.
Eaves were founded in Aachen in 2000. Before breaking up in 2005, they released a demo cd, a split with Atrox on CD and 2xLP, this split with Francis Brady and a full-length called "Höhenangst" on cd and 12''. 2 of their members went on to play in the band Trainwreck.
I found the mp3s on the internet and their quailty is good, so that I don't have to rip my record. But I scanned the artwork + lyrics of my record and added it to the upload for you, have fun with it.

Something to do for you on the 30th of April.

Hey folks. My friend Nico (Manku Kapak; Julius*shows) from Bremen is co-organizing a show in his hometown on April 30th.

Click to enlarge the flyer :


"Hallo! Am Freitag, den 30.April starten Mio aus Leipzig & Captain, your ship is sinking aus der Niederlande hier in Bremen ihre Tour. Beide spielen auf wunderbarer Weise ihre eigene Interpretation von Screamo, zusammen mit der Hardcore/Metal Dampfwalze aus Bremen, an der Front mit dem ehemaligen Sänger Hauke der Northcore Legenden Age & Assay. Zum Abschluss spielen Koala noch ein paar ihrer Akustikstücke, dieses Mal nicht auf der Straße, sondern im warmen beheizten Freizi.

Die Label-leute von Moment Of Collapse Rec. werden auch da sein, ihr werdet also viele Kisten zum Stöbern von Platten, Tapes & sonstigen Merchkram haben!
Außerdem werden wir gemeinsam für die Bands & euch vegan kochen, wer will kann gerne mitmachen.
Da wir Spritkosten von 150 Euro haben, würden wir uns über Spenden am Eingang sehr freuen!

Damit unsere Konzerte in naher Zukunft auch noch bestehen können, wäre es echt riesig, wenn ihr zahlreich erscheinen würdet. Schließlich touren so zwei klasse Bands von so weit weg nicht jedes mal durch ganz Deutschland & machen halt in unserem kleinen Städchen namens Bremen; es lohnt sich also.
Wenn ihr mögt, schick doch den Flyer, den ich euch angefügt habe, rum - Über jegliche Unterstützung sind wird dankbar.
Also bewegt euren Arsch am 30.April nach Bremen Farge & support your local scene!! Das Konzert findet im Jfh Bremen Farge statt, das in der Rekumerstraße 2 in 28777 Bremen zu finden ist. Eine genaue Wegbeschreibung & Infos findet ihr hier:

Todo Para Todos - Demo 2009


Todo Para Todos is a screamo band from Dresden, founded as a six-piece incl. 2 vocalists, but one of them left the band in 2009. They are not a typical screamo band, because their lyrics, which are all written in German language, are not always about personal sorrow but generally about politics and resistance. So you can clearly hear the punk/hardcore influences. A great thing!

Rollergirls - In heaven everything is fine


Rollergirls is a band from Darmstadt, Germany. Formed in early 2006 as a screamo band, they decided to play instrumental music after their shouter left and a second guitarist joined the band. But don't expect this instrumental post-rock stuff like Explosions in the sky or whatever, the Roller Girls stuff is much more punk or rather faster and danceable but just as atmospheric.
"In heaven everything is fine" is their third output, you can order it via e-mail or Myspace message for 4 € + shipping. Previously they've released a demo 3"cd-r and a tour-split 3"cd-r with Actress.

Manku Kapak - Vergissmeinnicht (Demo)


Manku Kapak is a young three-piece (Nico - guitar; Hauke - drums + melodica; Malte - Guitar; there is no bassist and they all sing) from Bremen, Germany. And what do you associate with Bremen? Yes, the typical so called "northcore" sound like it was played by legendary German bands like Jet Black, Akephal, Loxiran and so on. Manku Kapak do fit in this tradition and in good old early-90s emocore, but they're not trying to copy other bands. Anyhow, this is a very likeable band who keeps the punk & d.i.y. - flag flying. And furthermore, this demo cd-r is made with nothing but LOVE like we are used to it from Andi / Builtonfriendship Records. There are only 50 (handmade) copies of this demo.

News

Hey guys.
I'm thinking about working on at this blog, but since most of the emo/screamo thing is really boring me at the time (not every band!), I'll probably change the focus on Ambient (including IDM, Neo-Classic etc.) music cause this is just wonderful and I think there is no way to dislike this kind of music. But I'm not sure whether to open a new blog or just to go on with this one, I think I chose the 2nd option.We'll see.

Failed Suicide Plan - Selftitled


Failed Suicide Plan, a screamo/hardcore band from Germany, gave me their newest release to put it on my blog. Quite brutal, passionate stuff...I like it! You can buy it for 4 € + shipping. Here their band-bio:
Failed Suicide Plan started in Erfurt, Germany, in summer 2005 as a side project by Stefan, Bjarne and Erbse, but it soon became our main musical project. Some moths later we found Peter, former member of PlanK (r.i.p), as singer. In 2006 after only two gigs we had to search for a new man tacking the drumming duties and we finally found Steppl (Kellerasseln, Fazed (r.i.p)). With this lineup we recorded in summer 2007 our first record, a split with the italian screamo band Al Freddo(r.i.p.), that came out in deecmber 2007 on Frohike and tumorati Di Dio records, both from Italy.
In 2009 we recorded new songs that since are available now on a completely DIY CD-R release since november 2009.
FSP is since 2007 playing around, mostly in "east" germay, but we played also in Italy, Slovenia, Romania, Swizerland an Slovakia.

Reka - Live @ Shchyokino + more

 

Reka is a post-metal band from Moscow that was formed in 2007 by the members of the screamo bands Optimus Prime and Fortunae Verbera. In May 2010, they gonna play a tour through Eastern Europe with Celeste and will also release their first album then. For me they sound very powerful, I think I can hear influences of black-metal, screamo and sludge.
