Lincoln popped up out of West Virginia, and definitely had the mid 90s post-hardcore/emo sound nailed down.  After releasing 7"s through Watermark and Art Monk Construction, along with a split 7" with Hoover, they faded away.  Before their demise, an LP was recorded in what was probably 1995.  I'm unsure of who was supposed to release it, but it obviously never saw the light of day.

While this blog is all about reminiscing about bands of the 1990s, I'd like to use this section to shed some light on a current band who draws heavy influence from bands of that time. Antpile is a post-hardcore/screamo band from north Georgia, combining elements from bands like On the Might of Princes, Portraits of Past, and Texas is the Reason. They began in the spring of 2010 as a three piece with Brian McGhee on bass/vocals, Ben Jordan on guitar/vocals, and Blake Hall on drums. At the time, each member played in (and helped start) Deathbed. With the addition of Tom Lovejoy (Some Mistakes/Latin for Truth) on guitar, the band perfected their sound and continue to prove why they are one of the most talented and unique bands in the Atlanta hardcore scene. You can hear each of their three releases on Bandcamp.
