and I don't really see what you're getting at by thinking that wikipedia or last.fm or "anything else you want to throw into the mix" knows fuckall about screamo. There are so many fundamental and ideological differences between what you just posted and screamo that it would take me decades to try and explain it to you, because quite honestly if you consider a band to be skramz solely on the basis that they have a lyricist who screams and their songs have breakdowns then you're out of your head. This is not, nor will it ever be screamo. It's garbage metalcore/post-hardcore that is more about the image they portray and making "BROOTAL" noises than the music or philosophy behind it.
