Mihai Edrisch

Mihai Edrisch were a four-piece screamo band from Lyon, France that were around from 2002 to 2006. They share members with Däitro and (more recently) Celeste. Sonically, they have a lot of commonalities with fellow French screamo bands, such as Amanda Woodward, Sed Non Satiata, and Däitro. They blend lead guitar melodies with dissonant chords, with hints of post-rock influence in the way their songs build, release, and explode. The vocals are incredible, with an insurmountable amount of teary-eyed passion. They only released two albums in their lifetime, both of which are beyond incredible (especially Un Jour Sans Lendemain). Enjoy.

Celeste

Celeste are a four-piece post-hardcore/black metal band from Lyon, France that formed in 2005 by formers members of screamo legends Mihai Edrisch. Since then, they've put out a handful of soul-crushing albums, droning and piercing through assaultive darkness. As of September 2017, they are back with their latest one, another incredible addition to their incredible discography. Sonically, they are rooted in hardcore aggression, but with some heavy black metal influence courtesy of the tremolo-picked guitars and blast beats, in addition to hints of sludge and post-metal influence. Enjoy.

Daïtro

Daïtro were a five-piece screamo/hardcore band form Lyon, France that formed in 2000 and sadly broke up in 2012. Without a doubt, Daïtro are one of the most noteworthy and influential bands in screamo history. They were the flawless blend of melodic passages and chaotic outbursts, which of course is a staple dynamic in the genre. All three full-lengths offer up something slightly different, in addition to making masterpieces. Their splits are all with some amazing bands, such as Raein, Ampere, AND Sed Non Satiata. Daïtro are simply one of the best screamo/hardcore bands of the 2000's, and both recommended and essential. Enjoy.

Sport

Sport are a four-piece punk/emo band from Lyon, France that formed in 2011. Aside from a demo, the band have recorded two full-lengths in their time together, both of which have garnered nothing but love. Sport are the kind of band that play upbeat jams about feeling down, and do so with a fun-loving conviction. They mesh the noodly guitar work of bands like Snowing and Algernon Cadwallader with the raw energy and catchiness of Spraynard and RVIVR. I cannot recommend this band enough. They click right from the get-go and would definitely appeal to a lot of people who frequent this blog. So don't sleep on this any longer, grab these two indie-punk masterpieces. Without a doubt this is some of the best output the genre's seen in the last few years, and I can never tire of giving them a listen. Enjoy.
