genre: USA
country: Screamo
notes: Barrow is a four-piece from Greensboro, North Carolina playing heavy, textured, emotional music. They’re a perfect mixture of screamo, post-hardcore, and hardcore. Reminding at times of La Dispute and other times of Titain/Celeste. Barrow brings a unique flavor of music that will leave you drooling for more.

Bears – Todos Caerán Split (2011)By thestarsinjanuary on February 10th, 2011 | 122 Comments
genre: Screamo/Hardcore
country: Australia/Canada
notes: Bears (not to be confused with Bears!) is from Tasmania, AU. They combine elements of hardcore and screamo to perfection. The vocals are a mix of spoken word and screamed parts that creates a very unique sound. They remind me a tad of Calculator. Todos Caerán is from Edmonton, Canada (Alberta). They’re a bit more chill and heavy, having a post-rock type feel with very emotional screams. Bears and Todos compliment each other very well which makes the release more than just a collection of random songs and more a unified piece of art. This release for me is an early contender for best split of the year.buy (should be up soon)

genre: Screamo/Twinkle Daddies
country: USA
notes: Innards is a twinkly screamo band from Fort Worth, Texas. If you haven’t heard of this band by now you’re mega behind on the times. Point is: this is their newest release packing all the punch expected from their last release and more. -
Manbearpig – Ruined EmoBy nicholai on February 8th, 2011 | 123 Comments
Genre: Hardcore/Emo
Country: UK
Notes: Manbearpig is the new kids on the block in modern melodic hardcore that meets emo.
I’ve seen them a fair amount of places on the interwebs now, so i had to give it a listen, and to be honest, i was pleased. Their name is not as good as their music is, tho. They put this album up for free themselves. Give it a try if you like Touche Amore or Defeater. -
Snowing – I Could Do Whatever I Wanted If I Wanted (2010)By nicholai on February 6th, 2011 | 104 Comments
genre: Indie/Emo
country: USA
notes: Hello there, my name is Nicholai, and this is my first post on SYLO, thanks Fabi, for letting me do this, it’ll be fun. I thought i’d start out by posting Snowing’s recent album, which has yet to come out, it’ll be out on LP and of course on your favorite label for twinkly stuff; Count Your Lucky Stars. The sound is not far from Fuck your emotional bullshit, yet this album seizes me more, and is at points a tad bit heavier. CYLS has put it up, free to download, so grab it at their site. -
¡Silencio, Ahora, Silencio! – Demo EP (2011)By thestarsinjanuary on February 1st, 2011 | 116 Comments
genre: Screamo
country: Spain
notes: ¡Silencio, Ahora, Silencio! is a rad band from Madrid. Stylistically reminds me a bit of Gone With The Pain with a hint of Louise Cyphre. Mostly chaotic, but sometimes melodic. This band is absolutely amazing in every way and you don’t want to miss this release!
