notes: Heart On My Sleeve is newly formed screamo band from Stockholm, Sweden featuring members of Followed By 37 Seconds of Happiness and The Hope & The Failure. Ina has one of my favorite vocals in the scene so I am so fucking excited to see her back. Definitely check this out. Huge thanks to Kalle for sending me the link to this!

notes:  Treaty of Versailles is a screamo/hardcore band from Iowa. At times they’re reminiscent of recent bands like Calculator and other times they sound like Louise Cyphre yet still have a very unique style. It’s really fucking rad.

notes: Optimus Prime is an epic screamo band from Russia bringing the chaos and harmony that no other band does. I’m a little late on this release, but it’s absolutely perfect.
