Swancore

A sub-genre of post-hardcore music that incorporates elements of math-rock, progressive-rock, and post-rock and high-pitched and/or scream vocals. Bands that fall under this category are usually, but not always, signed to Blue Swan Records. Hence, the name "swancore".

Some examples of swancore bands are:

Dance Gavin Dance
Hail the Sun
Stolas
Oranges
