C86’d DIY Vol. 21: Bloom Dream x Open Carry State Summer Tour this Wednesday in NYC (August 19th)!

After a little hiatus we are excited to be back at Trans-Pecos to bring a couple more of our fav Southern Emo/Screamo acts to NYC! 

Bloom Dream blew us away with their 2024 release  of “It Didn’t Have to be this Way” riding the line between controlled chaos and beauty - sometimes the things that set an album or band apart are the soft bits interwoven between the chaos.  Their vein of emotional hardcore has hints of shoegaze and emoviolence, creating a transcendent experience. 

Open Carry State are time travelers bridging some of the classic chaotic hardcore sounds (before there was even “screamo” bands) with mathy melodic guitars, pinhead start/stops, and chunky breakdowns that only last long enough for one or two spin kicks.  A band that we’ve been checking in on regularly since the release of their demo last year only to be melted to the ground by “Spitting in the Face of Progress.”  

Our Southern friends will be sandwiched between an amazing line up of locals!

Opening up the show will be NYC x LI’s weonlyspokeinellipses with their first show in over a year.  Their two demos are incredibly impressive screamo and we can’t wait to see them perform live! 

Wellness (members/x-mem of Heavenly Blue, Massa Nera, Forever, and Liturgy) will also be bringing their mathcore intensity to the stage - Seeing them at Endless Fest was truly a site to see! 

Closing out the night will be our friends in Epoxy . Their self described “post-emo” covers a lot of ground hinting at influences from emo/screamo to Touch & Go Records, and even the angular, at times dancey, post-hardcore of the early 00’s that we don’t hear often enough these days.   

It’s an amazing line up and so happy we can help out some of more of our Southern friends.  Come hang.

Will be a lot of mad and sad music, don't miss this.

Tomorrow (Friday) we are so excited to host our first collaborative show with Collective Effort NYC and welcome SNAG & BLEACHED CROSS to Gold Sounds - both bands are on tour supporting new records!

SNAG recently signed Deathwish Inc and released “ All The Cages Holding Us Will One Day Turn To Dust” which embodies so much of what we love - melodic mathy guitars, emotionally & politically charged vocals/lyrics, and crushing chaos paired with the beautify of restraint...all the elements that go into making a truly beautiful post-hardcore or emo/screamo record (however you choose to define it).

Bleached Cross from Chicago (features members of Frail Body) brings us the cold, at times danceable, tones of post-punk.  A sound that is often on our stereos but sadly seldom at our shows.  Their new record “Wrath” came out last week and is a nod to our collective future and pasts sounding new and timeless at the same time.

LÁSTIMA will be coming up from Philly bringing their bigger than life blackened orchestral screamo to Bushwick.  We are excited to host them in NYC before they head out west for tour.

Two of our favorite locals will be joining us as well - AUXIENA SAINT with their emotional and shoegaze-y hardcore are always a treat to see and their performances have been scant this year. One of our favorite live bands - be sure to catch this one.

Last but not least is NJ’s CASCA - a C86’d favorite & likely our next label release - their intense blackened screamo will melt faces and have you moshing from the first song.

It’s a banger beginning to end - come hang   See ya in the pit.
