HXC // Screamo Bands, Faves and recommendations. Options

[antix10_kos]

I like Evergreen Terrace, Still Remains, Sinai Beach, and Darkest Hour, but I'm kinda out of the loop here, it's been awhile since I was into hardcore/ HXC music. So I was wondering, what HXC bands are good enough to consider putting on a mix for someone who hasn't heard much of the genre? I'd really like to introduce my cousin to this type of music because she's kinda on the edge of the scene i.e. really into MCR, Hawthorne Heights, and other mainstream bs but shows a lot of potential. I think she'd really like this kind of music if she knew what was out there.

To keep it simple, just list your fave bands of the HXC or screamo genres and one or two songs by each artist. I'd really like it if the responses were kept positive on this thread. If you don't like the genres here, then don't reply. It's pretty simple.

PS- I Searched For A Similar Thread With No Luck.

I'm kinda good with this stuff, but I assume you mean bands that sing and then scream, and the whole metalcore genre, not actual hardcore and screamo bands (because the first reply you got isn't really...the catchy stuff I think you're looking for. I mean it's really good stuff but doesn't exactly sound like the stuff I think you're going for).

Anyway, I know some of these were mentioned already but oh well.
Every Time I Die--Ebolarama, She's My Rushmore

Norma Jean--The Entire World is Counting On Me..., The Shotgun Message

Zao--The Last Revelation, Truly, Truly, This Is The End

Fear Before The March of Flames--too many good songs to name, but take these ones: On The Bright Side, She Could Choke, The State Of Texas Vs. Fear Before, and Should Have Stayed In The Shallows

HORSE the band--can't miss this band, everyone calls them Nintendocore , check out: Sevententacles and Eight Flames, and Bunnies

From Autumn To Ashes--Take Her To The Music Store should hook you, but also check out The After Dinner Payback and Short Stories with Tragic Endings

Lastly, because I know I am running out of bands to name, Haste The Day, check out Substance and Blue 42.

But I do better with the shitty mainstream HH-MCR type of bands, so I have a lot more to recommend in that category.

From First To Last- Ride The Wings of Pestilence. Enough said.
Underoath (the band's new cd) - Young And Aspiring, A Boy Brushed Red, Living In Black And White, I'm Content With Losing
Emery - Walls, they also did a good cover of "Holding Out For a Hero"
The Receiving End of Sirens - Planning a Prison Break, The Rival Cycle, Broadcast Quality
Senses Fail...catchy stuff here, I wish I could name all their songs, but check out Stephen and Free Fall Without a Parachute, and then Tie Her Down, Buried a Lie, and You're Cute When You Scream.
Matchbook Romance - horribly generic band, but I'll list anyway. Promise and Your Stories My Alibis are two good songs.
Emanuel - Just get their new cd. Every song is great.
A Static Lullaby - The Shooting Star That Destroyed Us All, Radio Flyer's Last Journey
Across Five Aprils - sadly I can't think of any of their songs.
Atreyu - The Crimson, Bleeding Mascara, Lipgloss and Black, Tulips are Better
My American Heart - Don't Sleep, This Won't Stop, Maps around Texas.
I assume you've already heard of Thrice and Thursday, but if you haven't, they're a must-listen-to, mainstream wise.
