If you want to know what all the crappy emo/screamo music came from, this is probably the band - although it's watered down and terrible now.

Also very good (but not quite the revelation as the fugazi track). I'll have to check out the other references tomorrow. Right now I think I can only manage to backtrack Fugazis catalogue.

Something noisy I like (don't be put off if you have have heard some of their "noisy" 60ties type songs before, this is really what I like about noisy rock... when it's at the very point where the melody is consumed by noise:
