Apparently there's a pretty famous Russian grunge band also named Robots Don't Cry, but this is a pretty obscure screamo band from Nebraska, that didn't leave more traces of their existence than a geocities site that doesn't seem to have been updated for years. They released two tour CDs with less than 100 copies each, and a split 7" with the equally obscure band Shadows and the Silence (who I've only heard one song from, on their split 7" with Choke Their Rivers With Our Dead, that got to me yesterday after almost a month of waiting. If anyone would have any digital copies of their songs I'd be more than happy).
I only have the songs from their 2004 tour cd though. I don't even know how the hell I got them. But anyway they're great, there's lots of instrumental parts with awesome guitar works and some piano/synth. I especially love the second song.

(the bands' songs have been confused with each other and are therefore tagged wrong, don't blame me for this)

Most of the old download links on this blog have expired, so I thought I'd start re-posting some of them.
I'll start with one of my all time favorite bands, Allegory Of The Cave. I stumbled across their song The Flood We Started, The Flood We Drowned In (or simply known as demo track 03) about 3 years ago, and was instantly in love. AOTC was a two-piece from Orlando, Florida who made noisy screamo with the worst recording quality ever, but were yet softly melodic at times, everything in a very unique and totally awesome way.
I don't know much about the other band on the split, Spectres, other than that they also had a track on a 4 way split tape limited to 100 copies with the bands The Short Blooming, Vlado Petrik and Zarathustra Has Been Killed In The 70's, that I happen to have in my collection alongside the Allegory Of The Cave/Spectres split 7", which is unfortunately out of print, but if it'll ever show up on eBay or something, take the chance to buy it because this is in my opinion one of the best screamo records ever made. Buy the tape too, it has amazing artworks of a whale in a tree.
