Matsuri is a screamo (/skramz lolz) band from California. It's always hard to describe bands like this without sounding like an asshole, but they make some of the most passionate and spirited music I have ever heard. Combining 90s screamo/emo and post-rock sounds in a thoughtful and innovative way, Matsuri has put together one of my favourite full-lengths. Totally underrated, DIY-as-fuck - unfortunately these guys broke up recently, but we are left with Endship and some other great records.

hey, I love this blog!
ReplyDeletewas wondering if you guys have any of the old stuff archived? an old post (used to be found here: http://idontcareaboutsleep.blogspot.com/2009/09/pop.html) had all these great pop albums on it (Cowboy In Sweden, Paris 1919, Something Else by The Kinks, Scott 4, Mareke), but I only got through about half of them, really wanted to check the rest out but can't find it anywhere!
Hey man all our links died when they killed Megaupload, but I can re-post all those albums I can use the internet again
ReplyDeleteoh I figured as much. I've got those albums that I mentioned but I was after the other albums on the list - the ones that I don't remember hah.
ReplyDeleteWhat I'm asking is if anyone would have a saved copy of that particular post from the old site here http://idontcareaboutsleep.blogspot.com/2009/09/pop.html. It was a really great article, I would love for it to be re-upped.
