I would suggest some Thrice... but if you don't want screaming, i'd go with some of their softer songs, like *phoenix ignition* and *in your hands*
also, *to what end*, it isn't a softer one but it freakin rocks

and Finch... *wihout you here*, *perfection through silence*, *new kid* (softer), *letters to you*..woohoo finch

and The Used...*on my own*(softer), *blue and yellow*(softer), *box of sharp objects*
and, i agree with the rap/hip hop as bad music....ew

what the hell, put some Taking Back Sunday in it too... *You know how I do*, *You're so last summer*, *the blue channel*

Box Full of Sharp Objects is a scream fest, although its def a good song.

i hate screamo
we are the brand new beatniks. we are the down and outers.
we are the bleeding hearts, beating syncopated, broken rhythm.
our speed is often break neck. we need to slow it down.
tired of being sleepless. tired of being broken.

I used to cough up blood if I ever sang anything. Now I sing properly and my throat doesn't hurt nearly as much. But yeah, I still can't scream....
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Thanks guys. Unfortunately, none of it was worth anything. :uh: I never gave the CD to him. And I never will. I broke up with him. :cry:

in other words:

"You probably have heard of these bands. Sorry. I grew up with no emo kids around, and I need to talk about it somewhere."

Maybe I should get a degree in translating.

I don't have many friends that like my music. It's a shame. The only ones I know are the friends of my girlfriend....everyone I went to high school with except for three people listened to rap music. It was sad, and yet amazing I turned out for the better.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
