This Luxembourg Quartet is quite the band. They're an extremely fun mixture of Math Rock. Quite reminiscent of The Fall of Troy and Blakfish. Their riffs are unpredictable and all over the place, but keep their catchiness, and the yells and vocals are something to sing and/or scream along to. Their time signatures are something I wouldn't recommend even trying to keep up with. I'd recommend this band to anyone who likes fun music with loads of talent involved.
This is Native, a badass Math Rock/Post-Rock/Experimental Post-Hardcore band from Indiana that's gotten some real rep in the underground hardcore world for their new album 'Wrestling Moves'. They're bestest musical buddies with other great Experimental Post-Hardcore band La Dispute, and I saw them both play live together. They sound even more incredible live than they do on this jawdropping album. I'd definitely suggest checking them out and supporting them. I knew I had to when I listened to them, which is why I paid to see them and bought their merch.
Yeah, this is a Math Rock/Emotional Hardcore band from Pennsylvania. These guys are really good, and really fast paced. But at the same time, it's kind of chill. This is something that would be great to listen to when just relaxing. If there was such a thing as stoner-screamo, this would fit that description. They did an LP called Thank You Arms and Fingers and just recently released a split with Spires.
I thought I'd kick off the New Year with La Dispute. These guys are an awesome Michigan-Based Post-Hardcore band with influences from all over the map. From neat art rock, to classic Post-Hardcore, to even emotional hardcore and screamo. They've released a bunch of EP's, and currently only one Full Length, which is Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair.
These dudes are seriously awesome. They're an influential Experimental Post-Hardcore band that was around for about 10 years. They're most known for their mixture of chaotic dual vocals (Jordan Billie is deeper, and Johnny Whitney sounds like an abused 5 year old, in the best sounding way possible) and their off-beat and unorthodox guitar by Votolato. They started out as a mixture of Mathcore and Hardcore-Punk, then as they progressed, they became more and more similar to Post-Hardcore, with more poppy and experimental moments. Though that doesn't make them bad, they're still an amazing band, throughout every single album. I really recommend you check them out, or better yet you buy their recently released reissues of all of their LP's.
