Into Post-Hardcore?

I know there's only a very select few guys on here that are, I think like int and hxc maybe? Anyway, go give my band a listen http://www.facebook.com/citadeluk and see what you think, our full EP is on our band page

Cheers

It's a good effort. I don't hear anything particularly ground-breaking though on the first song I've listened to. 'Remember, no Russian'. A solid effort nonetheless

Definitely be pinching your free EP

Keep it up!

EDIT: It's growing on me with each listen though!

Post Hardcore is pretty much just Emo, isn't it?

Aye grab away! A House Divided is probably our most mature/complete track although I of course love them all.

No need for the rolleyes. It was a genuine question as the only mention of the genre I've heard is a friend claiming that "Post Hardcore" is a term used for Emo/Screamo that listeners use to avoid the "negative" connotation of the alternative name.

Have one back, though. :rolleyes:

It's called post hardcore because the drummer has to use goal posts for drumsticks, this is so he can be heard over the extremely high decibel monolithic riffage and screaming of his bandmates. :cool:

Fair enough, but no it's not emo/screamo, it's a different sub genre of rock

oh and your friend is wrong

Not really my thing but the intro to Remember, no Russian sounded very much like glassjaw which is pretty sweet =D
Also slightly of topic but anyone here listen to good screamo/emo e.g orchid,indian summer,i would set myself on fire for you

Rites of Spring, Saetia, Circle Takes the Square?

Orchid are good. Haven't heard them in years.

United Nations are pretty excellent.

OP - definitely potential there. Will be keeping an eye on you.
