Acoustic/Screamo?

[livingalive626]

yes? no?
thinking about trying it out. what do you think? we're talking about just a single acoustic guitar with mainly screaming, some clean vocals.

p.s. please don't reply if you don't like screaming in the first place; this would be aimed at those who are already cool with it

EDIT: You can find a DEMO here: http://www.purevolume.com/killthevoices
note- this is just a rough version i whipped up with some crappy equipment.the intro is off, and the clean vox almost straight up suck, but i swear i can sing lol. anyways, let me know what you think.

what are your influences?

[livingalive626]

what are your influences?

well i actually don't know of any acoustic/screamo projects...if i did, i would prolly be influenced by them lol. as of now though, underoath, the devil wears prada and showbread.

so you're not gonna be an acoustic/screamo band, more like an acoustic/worship band then?

Well I'm pretty sure you need to declare Jesus Christ as your lord and savior in order to be considered a true screamo band.

Worst acoustic tone ever though.

[Lemmi!]

no.. bad idea

[Benny K]

i misunderstood. i thought u meant clean nasally vocals usually associated with screamo music to encompass the entirety of the song, not screaming with blotches of clean. youre a retard and you have stupid ideas. i hate you

They're alright. I'd say Die, Emperor! DIe is better, but I've only listened to a little of each.. problem with that band is that the acoustic sounds really bad. If they bought a decent acoustic and recorded it better they might sound good.

It sounds like it would be unique, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's a good idea.
Honestly, it's just stupid. I wouldn't listen to that.

[andrew_upto11]

ehh...try something else

[mattmatumbo]

Clean guitars work, and they've been used in screamo before. Acoustic is just... acoustic? I guess.

[xJesusFreakx]

Give it a shot. Worst that could happen, it sounds like crap, and life goes on.

[Broclee]

Ehh. I don't think it's the best idea. If you were going for a, like, early-Against Me! sound, that would be a better idea, or mostly clean stuff with some screams/yells, maybe, but JUST maybe.

I would vote i but i don't think it's 'yes, cool' or 'no, gay'. A simple 'No' would have sufficed.

[Nourez]

I don't really think it'd work, but I'd still say record a demo or something.

I mean, no one expected the combination of rapping/rock in Linkin Park to work out. But look how great that turned out..

no wait. Nevermind.

[Sigur Ros]

I think it sounds too pretentious and unbalanced. I think that screaming is best complimented my noisy/distorted guitars and loud drums. There is too much of a gap between soft, acoustic guitar and throated vocals to really appeal. I don't doubt for a second that you are a talented musician in any way, but this idea sounds like it could come off as annoying and unappealing. While being a little pretentious is healthy for a musician, this idea sounds very contrary to even the most obscure, avant-garde noisecore band.

I think you should check out the band My Own Private Alaska. They are a French hardcore/screamo band, often referred to as "classicore." They are made of up of three musicians: a vocalist (throat), a pianist, and a drummer. While they obviouslty sound very odd, they are not that distant from any early screamo/emocore band from the early to mid ninteies to the early 2000's. This of the left hand piano as the bass guitar/rhythm and the right hand as a lead guitar. Drums and vocals as is. I'd call it beautiful.

Oh yeah, MOPA is one of my favorite bands at the moment. So, I guess that I would give you the support to go ahead and try out this idea of acoustic screamo. MOPA is an exceptionally talented and innovative band and mimicking/drawing influence from their style could be viewed negatively from some, if this is what you want to do, go for it. Give it a shot. Isn't that the point of music? Trying someothing new and different?

So, yeah, I say do it. Not everyone's going to love it, but if you're doing what you want to do, that's all that matters. Make sure to let me check it out when it's live though!

Ahhh, nice, very cool actually.

A suggestion, take it or leave it, do some major layering wit the guitars. Listen to the band Bon Iver; they are a lo-fi folk band who is known for their layering effects. The reverbs sound awesome, and the throat and lyrics are very well done as well. I'm really impressed actaully. But, on Bon Iver, what he does is plays the same guitar part over and over, over each other, adding some little changes to each to give it a slightly ghostly/haunting sound. He also sings the vocal parts in a different range each time as well, so it gives it that ghostly feel as well. http://www.myspace.com/boniver. Listen to Skinny Love to see what I'm talking about.

thanks man, means alot! but thats noted; i was actually planning on doing that. like i said, the recording stuff i have is crap..each time i relayer it, it sounds worse and worse quality wise. i might actually hit up a local studio to record an e.p. if i can get this to take off.
and cool ill check em out.
btw, are you really 16?

Hm. Well, I'm not a big fan of screamo in the first place, but I think this acoustic/screamo thing could become very big. In my personal opinion, I don't care for it. I think it would be alright if you screamed in moderation with more clean vocals, but that's just what I would like.

Yeah dude, I hear that. I record stuff all the time in my room on Audacity through an old karaoke microphone :P

How are they indicative of diversity? You listen to a very, very marginalized sect of music. Your favorite bands are interchangeable. Who cares that the mainstream isn't buying your favorite Tooth and Nail metalcore band's records. You claimed you "gravitated toward diversity." I suspect that's a very disingenuous statement on your part.

Get that shit live on Myspace man!
When things start getting good, come back to me. I could totally help you market and promote yourself in the way that your creativity would be respected in the most, rather than a bunch of tools thinking you're just an emo kid making noise with his guitar. Because, that is so far from realist. I read some of your poetry that you had linked to your profile, and I don't know what to say, its unbelievable. Really man, that shit's moving.

And haha, yeahhhh when i talk music i get a bit technical and shit, but don't take me that way, im hardly that uptight.

yes? no?
thinking about trying it out. what do you think? we're talking about just a single acoustic guitar with mainly screaming, some clean vocals.

p.s. please don't reply if you don't like screaming in the first place; this would be aimed at those who are already cool with it

EDIT: You can find a DEMO here: http://www.purevolume.com/killthevoices
note- this is just a rough version i whipped up with some crappy equipment.the intro is off, and the clean vox almost straight up suck, but i swear i can sing lol. anyways, let me know what you think.
Ummm I guess you could do that. The though's crossed my mind before and I've fucked around on a guitar and screamed then I remembered I can't play guitar, only drums, so my friend took over guitar. It wasn't the worst thing I've ever heard. I think you would probably want to do like first-wave screamo/mathcore parts that slowly lead into acoustic interludes with occasional screaming. Then I'd be more open to it, instead of TDWP over Bright Eyes or Nevershoutnever.

well yeah, im gonna be experimenting alot with it, so thanks for the input...i just wanted some deeper stuff in there though to make it a little more original ya know?

Like here's what I mean...
Start out with like a birght eyes- first day of my life thing and prgoress and distort it to L'via L'viaquez, distort and transition it to a louder acoustic with spoken word crescendoing into a scream or two and then go all post-hardcore metalocre. But if you do that, you'll need to work on your guitar a shit load and be able to scream with a lot of range. Not like Mike Hranica but more of a Jase Korman meets Corpsegrinder meets Bear from SYNT (i know he left like 3 years ago,,, don't bitch.)

Transitions for this would be real important however...

Like here's what I mean...
Start out with like a birght eyes- first day of my life thing and prgoress and distort it to L'via L'viaquez, distort and transition it to a louder acoustic with spoken word crescendoing into a scream or two and then go all post-hardcore metalocre. But if you do that, you'll need to work on your guitar a shit load and be able to scream with a lot of range. Not like Mike Hranica but more of a Jase Korman meets Corpsegrinder meets Bear from SYNT (i know he left like 3 years ago,,, don't bitch.)

Transitions for this would be real important however...

i think stuff like that will come as my talent improves...like you said, it will require some niiice guitar playing, and since i only play by ear its rather hard for me to make complicated sounding stuff without having to rely on over-lays.
but as for the screaming, i think i can handle that. i have a pretty decent range, as you can hopefully tell somewhat by the demo.

I hate your music on principle.

[livingalive626]

I hate your music on principle.

which principle is that?

[The Personist]

which principle is that?

The principle that someone who doesn't know what "screamo" is and by his own admission sings poorly in demos he wants to share with the world is an idiot...

Also, on the principle that, whether you were corrected or not, you still used the word "gay" that way. Unacceptable.

ALso you're an idiot.

i know what screamo is. i recorded the demo after i posted this thread, and changed the sound.
no, i don't sing poorly in all demos i record. but i did in that one because i was in a hurry at the time trying to get my friends recording stuff back to him. hence why i have not corrected it or the screaming at the beginning of the song.

also, you're a douche. fuck off.

Ummm it worked now, and no... this will not work... at all... if you want to do it, that's fine... but I'm not adding your band to my playlist.

I'm surprised you weren't one of them. Lol, j/k. It sounded okay at first, I misunderstood him, but now that I've heard it....
