Get the skrumpapumpa mug.A reference used to differentiate between 80% of the band tees in Hot Topic, and actual screamo. An offshoot of hardcore punk. The term itself should be taken lightly, but it's helpful to make the distinction. Some elitist douche bags think it's immature and lame, but they just have their panties in a bunch.
DIY as fuck.
Also, the difference between "Enter Shikari" and "Shikari." The latter clearly being better as a band in every regard.

Get the Skrump mug.Skram is a corruption of the word screamo, first coined in 2004 by Alex Bigman, a.k.a. thebigmin, on the messageboard Cross My Heart With A Knife as a joke. Over time, people took it somewhat seriously, and has now come to be used as a less-commercially co-optable term for screamo, since that word has been bastardized into oblivion, used to describe any shitty whine-fest bands on MTV and the Warped Tour that incorporate maybe 30 seconds of screaming per song.
Typically, true skram records are pressed only on vinyl, with handmade covers, and in quantities of far less than 1,000.
Previous and less successful attempts to create a term that the mainstream media and major record companies would deem "too stupid" to steal and repackage included kittencore, and the more appropriate, kitten violence.
Superlatives:
-ultimate skram : literal meaning
-epic skram : skram that usually contains abrupt and extreme tempo and volume/distortion changes, nontraditional rock instrumentation (cellos, violins, trumpets, various other orchestral instruments), and other effects to heighten the "epic" feel of the song, these songs tend to be longer in length
-1337 skram : more obscure and elitist skram
-OOP skram : used for skram records that have gone out of print, but are still in demand, and hence, command a princely sum on eBay or board.vivalavinyl.org
Variations:
-skramo
-SKR##M)
-teh screamies
-skramz0rz (or further variations, ex: skramzei0rz0ers, the more ridiculous and over the top, the better)
-amo the little-mentioned counterpart to skramo, if screamo:emo::skramo:amo, get it?
