Book Of Caverns


Book Of Caverns were a five-piece screamo band from Edmonton, Alberta that formed in 2009 and just recently called it quits in 2016. Along with their recent end came their final release, No Seeds Left To Sow, which is fantastic. Book Of Caverns also appeared on a four-way split with some other incredible bands, namely Lizards Have Personalities and ¡Silencio, Ahora, Silencio!, as well as fellow Alberta scream queens Todos Caerán. As far as their sound goes, I like to think of them as a blend of atmospheric post-rock and the emotional outpouring of a French skramz band, like Daitro or something along those lines. Also a nice dash of midwestern emo, just for good measure. They've given us a ton of great material, so as sad as it is to see them go, at least they've left us with some good shit. Edmonton and Calgary have both been an amazing source of good screamo in the last few years, so if you like this band, look into others from there, there's been some phenomenal stuff coming out. Enjoy.
