Molested - Blod-draum CD Discogs Page Underground Norwegian death metal circa 1995. This band is probably most famous for being a project involving Oystein Braun, who later formed the much more popular band Borknagar. I wouldn't say this is my favorite death metal album by any stretch, but it is well done even if it doesn't really break any new ground. My copy is the receby LionsMouth - Crate Digging: Non Hip Hop

I also have their Kostogher album which is the one after Fran Marder. Same label did the reissue and the same deal with overcooked/compressed mastering. Musically it's definitely on point though.

The best band IMHO from the later part of the 90s in the whole screamy emo scene was Portraits of Past. A lot of their music is slower and moodier than some of their peers.

Quotejaybrown Saetia is very emo ( screamo) though .. Now there is a band I haven't thought about in a long time. I bought their s/t album in the late 90s and liked it then. Not sure how I would feel about it now. There was similar band on the same label (Mountain Collective) called Closure that I liked back then also.

@Jaybrown, nice. I don't have any of those. I was hoping the Main Source would get a wider release but that doesn't seem to be happening. VMP is stepping up their game for sure. I don't think I would subscribe but there are a few exclusives they have that I'd like to get. One thing I don't like about them is that even though started opening the store to non-subscribers, tby LionsMouth - Crate Digging: Hip Hop

I'm 25 years old, and I mainly listen to punk/hardcore and indie rock, although over the last few years I've been getting into some hip-hop, country, and bluegrass.

Arckanum - Fran Marder Arckanum's second album from 1995. If you like black metal that is raw but has some interesting atmosphere and rises above the bedroom demo level stuff, check this album out.

Quotewhoisfrank I'd say Shotmaker is my favorite of the three. I recently grabbed their 2CD discography set off of discogs. For some reason that release goes for much more (about $30-40) than music from other '90s hardcore bands. I had actually never heard of Merel before I came across the 7". It was labelled as "Emo/Hardcore" in the store, and when I googled them, I rby LionsMouth - Crate Digging: Non Hip Hop

That Petrol Emotion - Manic Pop Thrill TPE's first LP from 1986. This band was made up of two ex-members of the Undertones but sounds nothing like them. Instead of light punky power pop this is sort of the crossroads of 80s indie rock and post-punk. Some good songs, lots of melody, though not as aggressive as their next album, Babble.

Ben Webster - The Warm Moods LP I don't usually go for jazz ballads with string sections but when it's done right I can appreciate it. Here, it's definitely done right.

I liked all three bands during the 90s but haven't listened to them in years other than Shotmaker. Merely had a discography CD on Gern Blandsten, way OOP now.
