Boy Problems

Boy Problems were another noodly, colorful screamo band out of Philly, but they are no less unique, if not more. Crafted from members of past and present bands such as Storm The Bastille, Boys And Sex, Cassilis, Snowing, Make Me, Harrison Bergeron, Street Smart Cyclist, The Lady Is Not For Burning, and Shitty Knees, you should have clicked the download link by now. Boy Problems sufficiently began where Make Me left off. They've only released (as far as i know) a tour tape and a(n awesome) four way split with Lautrec, The Reptilian, and Osceola. Download everything.

David Dondero/Mischief Brew "Two Boxcars" Split

I know I'm behind in the times and David Dondero has released A Pre-existing Condition and whatever but I recently came across this amazing split and can't stop listening to it. Seeing one of the two names on this should be enough to send you to your local internet search engine. It starts out with a man and his daughter's lifeless corpse in an ice cooler going to the Brownsville Assembly in search of false hope in Dondero's "The Brownsville Revival", a slightly varied version from the "South Of The South" one with some added piano thing tracks or whatever.  Erik Petersen (Mischief Brew)'s two begin with a tired alternative to traditional bullshit folk-punk songs in which he emphasizes his hatred for these anti-war anthems. The second, "Goodbye Under God", is a response to the dated controversy of the "under god" line in the pledge. Don't get me wrong, I fucking love David Dondero and you should definitely go out and buy his shit but I just think that this is the best thing I've heard from Mischief Brew yet.

Storm The Bastille

This band is fucking awesome. They deserve a better description than this but whatever no one reads this shit anyway. Heavy shit, but still melodic and interesting as fuck. I can't even think of other bands to compare them to. The drumming is amazing, ridiculous fills and perfectly timed everything, this shit will get you off your ass. The guitars are almost terrifying, along with the screamed vocals and faint water-droplet sounds in "Lronhubbard", you'd think someone was be tortured in a basement. You can download all their shit on their website, definitely worth it. Personal favorites include Dismantled, In First Person split LP, and Cassilis split tape, but get it all.
