screamo

a type of harsher emo music with screaming in it and stuff. Many times it gets confused with metal, death metal, melodic metalcore, hardcore punk, or any music with harsh vocals in it. Often confused by it's older fans as a punk style, when real hardcore punk is actually Minor Threat, Black Flag and Agnostic Front, it's more of a subgenre of emo, which derived from punk. If emo was punk, then MCR's first album was punk. Because believe me, their first album actually did sound A LOT like old school emo and had some hardcore influence. But I wouldn't call it punk. I think punk is more rebellious and is like Ramones and Sex Pistols and 4 skins and emo is short for emotional hardcore (despite sunny day real estate gave it a softer sound and remade it). It was influenced by hardcore, it was raw a lot and had screaming or speaking in it. Vocals often sounded very emotional but sometimes a little disturbed sometimes. At first it was pioneered by Pg 99. Early bands were Pg 99, Saetia, Heroin, Orchid and I Hate Myself. Today it's more of bands are I Would set myself on fire for you, Alexisonfire, thursday, funeral for a friend and the saddest landscape. Some newer bands sound a little less harsh and do less screams than older screamo. The reason why screamo isn't hardcore punk is because it doesn't sound ANYTHING like black flag or agnostic front or even bad brains.

Screamer

In a hardcore, screamo, there is usually two people, the singer, and the screamer, The singer balances the melody, while the screamer breaks it down. If one man can do both these jobs, he is incredibly talented.

Screaming Eagle

This sexual position starts as a doggystyle pumping action, but you start pumping harder and harder. Finally, in your last pump before climax, you pull completely out of her vagina, and insert into her anus. At the same time, you grip two long clumps of hair, like the handlebars of a motorcycle and yank back towards yourself. The results should be both you and your partner screaming, albeit your scream is voluntary.
I gave Samantha a totally chopper-esque screaming eagle before busting a nut.

Screaming Dragon

The act of putting a layer of plastic foil on a sex partner's mouth, then excremating on it and when you are about to climax you bust your cock through the foil and cum in her mouth.
Man, me and Jess tried a Screaming Dragon last night, she puked all over my balls though, and now I have an infection.Thee's this ash that stinks like a mofo every time I take a step. I have a feeling that a penis is not meant to be put in a pile of dookie.
