insimetria - Bootlegs (2007/2008)

Totally inspired by the blog Sanitized Japan, I've decided to start a blog about the brazilian hardcore/punk/DIY music scene.

The first post is about insimetria, a screamo band from Uberlândia/MG that was active around 2007-2009. Recently I've met one of their members at one of the last Meia Lua e Soco's (gonna post about them very soon) concerts and since then I've been listening to insimetria almost every week.

Their music used to sound like french screamo (specially Daïtro, in my opinion, I even got a Daïtro t-shirt from their singer). My first band got to play with them and 3 segundos antes da queda at the first brazilian "skram" festival which happened in São Paulo, 2007.

insimetria was formed from the ashes of a band called A Verdade Gera O Ódio and started as a quartet, their bassist Renan shared the vocals with Heman, one of the guitarists. Some months later, Douglas (ex-Fuerza, now on Chiptots), joined as the main singer. They disbanded shortly after the fourth edition of Bipolar Fest. A few months ago, Renan told me that they were going to start playing again and I'm still waiting to see this happening. Their drummer, Birosca, is playing on a band called Tortisse.

They never released anything, but you can check two bootlegs at the band's bandcamp (being the first one as a quartet and the other as a quintet).
