Usually when someone uses the word emo or emocore to describe how a band sounds, I get upset. Moss Icon is an exception to this rule. Them, along with a handful of other bands, came from what was known as the Revolution Summer. Basically, in the summer of 85, a bunch of DC bands pretty much invented the post-hardcore/emo genre. This is the second release by this band, all though it was also released as the Hate In Me 7", which is the first track on this record. I plan on posting more from this band later in days to come, so you better fucking like them. You should also check out Embrace, another seminal band from the same time period, with a similar sound.
