Along with two awesome splits (Die, Emperor! Die!/Burned Out Bright and Toru Okada/Olive Tree) I ordered the Things To Remember 7" today. None of you will probably ever get such a chance. Quest For Quintana Roo released a shitload of stuff during their existence between 1999 and 2002, but just a fraction of it has survived till this day. That's pretty sad, because they played some really powerful skramz. Things To Remember is their top stuff, I'd say.

Oh, and for those who didn't know, their name is taken from one of the most well designed video games ever:

Tracklist:
1. Untitled #1
2. Untitled #2
3. Untitled #3

5. Untitled #4

Download

So, I guess I'll also upload this. We Killed John Lennon was probably the most short lived screamo band ever, they existed for one exclusive and totally improvised basement gig and demo recording last friday night. They had one guitar without a pick, a set of drums with some broken sticks, and a bunch of dudes screaming at random without any microphones, and recorded it all with some mobile phones and a digital camera. I myself was third vocalist or something in ...In The World and some other songs that didn't get on this demo (I'm the one sounding like a little girl getting assraped). All the other tracks are by Daniel (vocals), Jesper (drums), Filip (guitar) and Martin (vocals). I had so fucking fun with you that night. Thank you all.

I've never been a big fan of emo-violence, but sweet Jesus these guys are awesome! It may be the softer parts in Flies Of The Marketplace that does it, but still. I love it.

So, guess what? Today I'm turning fucking 18! And I thought I'd celebrate that by giving you a classic screamo album that I got from my mum for my 16th birthday, two years ago.
Quantice Never Crashed were fucking intense. I also remember they would refuse to ever play any show with an age limit. That's something that every band with some self respect left should do.
