Saintly Rows - 2013 - Everything That I Was Afraid of Happening, Happened

Saintly Rows are a four piece screamo band from Albuquerque, New Mexico, America. Everything That I Was Afraid of Happening, Happened is their second EP. They play a brand of screamo that borrows heavily from the post-rock school of songwriting. These songs take awhile to build to their explosive climaxes which are extended in the post-rock style. On songs like Tetelestai and The Potomac the post-rock serves as a base on which the anguish of the screamo can be be lit on fire and reach even higher. If you like your screamo reaching for something beyond, Saintly RowsEverything That I Was Afraid of Happening, Happened will serve well.
