imbroco - are you my lionkiller?
album: are you my lionkiller?
year: 2000
artist: imbroco
summary and olive's take:
the only release from austin, tx based band imbroco, this EP is a predecessor to the sound that post-hardcore would become by the likes of title fight in the 2010s. featuring texas emo/punk scene veterans, the band was considered a "supergroup": vocalist rory phillips, drummer gabe wiley, guitarist scott mccarver, and bassist matt breedlove had all been in well established bands prior to imbroco (the impossibles, the stereo, mineral). the band ebbs and flows masterfully from atmospheric softness to loud intensity, building tension in each song with beautiful guitars and drumwork + soft but powerful vocals. blending post-hardcore, shoegaze, pop-punk, and emo elements seamlessly, this EP is a lovely listen! support imbroco here!
