I don't think Discographies should count as "essential records" , I don't agree with some of the picks but i've listened to all those records...

Regardless, the full length by Portraits of Past should be much closer to #1.

Yeah, the arrangement of this list could use some help.

someone's been to new jack town recently I see

This is such a boring fucking list.

Mohinder, Angel Hair, Swing Kids, Antioch Arrow, Uranus, etc.. Correct me if I'm wrong, but screamo didn't start in 1998.

Only 3 albums from the 90s (one of them being an emo album), no Jerome's Dream and picked the wrong Envy album. Hmmmmm

any list with saetia at the top cannot be taken seriously

Essential list.

This is stupid and confined to a bunch of bands that are interchangable.

My opinion on essential bands to understand this genre .

Meandhimcallitus
Jeromes dream
Hassan I sabbah
Orchid
Daughters (all of their stuff)
Discordance axis


There's a ton more but I don't think that understanding skramz is just listening to a shitload of skramz bands that sound alike. There's a variation of the genre which is important to get in my opinion.

...discordance axis?
