    That's a category I've never heard of before, but it and those tracks remind me of the almighty Mr. Bungle:

    I like a few post-hardcore bands, like Alexisonfire and Atreyu (though I guess only the first album and the few EPs before that were really post-hardcore..), besides that there isn't much.

    Screamo, not so much. It tends to be associated with emo more, an area of music I'm not overly fond of to be honest.

    Me too :( They were my favourite band and I went to see them loads of times all across the world!

    The Ghost of a Thousand were really good too but sadly have also broken up.

    80's post-hardcore for the win.

    Yes that's future Jesus Lizard frontman David Yow on vocals.

    One of the first proper post-hardcore/emocore bands. Got to love Dischord records.

    If you want some proper screamo listen to Saetia.

    For some even spazzier stuff try Jeromes Dream

    Rites of spring never did anything for me, they're one of those bands that I feel like I should like but just...don't. :P
    Saetia I do listen to occasionally. Their lyrics are really great. Pg.99 are quite similar, also good. I haven't heard the others, but I will check them out, thanks :)

    edit: this is awesome

    'Post-hardcore' conjures images of a desolate boring wastland after the hardcore apocalypse of the 1980s In particular

    Actually what you refer to as a boring wasteland just happened to be filled by bands breaking the mould of 80's hardcore punk and taking in many other influences. You have bands like Husker Du thinking completely outside the box with Zen Arcade, Fugazi and The Nation Of Ulysses combining the passion of hardcore punk with heart-on-sleeve lyrics and more melody, and also Big Black and Scratch Acid creating a noiser and unhinged racket.

    ok well fugazi as an 80s outfit certainly featured a desolate, after the fall type of sound and approach like on the track Promises. Post punk they weren't; I see your point now post hardcore is what they were but I have seen too many posers in Husker Dü shirts - I have not delved into 80s post hardcore and I doubt I'll be disappointed, just have to dig deep.. Big black, scratch acid sounds good I will investigate
