Everyone here at URB towers knows I’m prone to little journo crushes every now and again. And i am crushing HARD on this band from Albucrazy, NM.
I’m trying to come up with words to describe how I feel about Brokencyde. Just the name reminds me of all the fun i could have had in high school if only I wasn’t too scared to get a neck tattoo in the 10th grade. It also doesn’t help that I just went and got a 30 minute massage at the joint across the street and my fingers are slippery with lotion on the keyboard.
Before you read further, you should watch the first 30 second of so of this video, just to understand what i’m talking about. you’ll probably want to hear the whole thing, so take you time and come back after.
Basically- this shit is really obvious. It’s a couple couple of Suburban emokids from New Mexico doing crunk covers in a screamo vein. But to appreciate this, you really have to understand how hard it is to make it work. In college, I briefly got into the original emo-screamo-straight edge scene. This was like 1995, when things were still based in the hardcore scene of the ’80s and super earnest and sincere. Sure, everyone shreiked like Cookie
