Since 2016, Dreamwell has gathered every weekend at a farmhouse outside of Providence, RI to play their unique blend of screamo. Over the years they have gigged up and down the Northeastern US with bands including Birds in Row, Shizune, Portrayal of Guilt, Take One Car, Listener, ‘68, and Struckout. After almost four years in the making, their second LP, Modern Grotesque (to be released 2/26/21) unleashes 10 tracks that are both chaotic and dissonant, but also melodic, atmospheric, and emotive. Fighting through member changes, injuries, personal change, and a pandemic, both pain and growth can be heard throughout. Inspired by the characters of Flannery O’Connor, the lyrical themes on Modern Grotesque explore moments of pain, suffering and sorrow which immediately precede great change, and characters who are forced to reckon with what they are so that they might become someone stronger. Of their second single, Sayaka, Brooklyn Vegan said ‘The song incorporates throat-shredding metallic post-hardcore, climactic post-rock, La Dispute-esque talk-singing, and more, and Dreamwell fuse it all together seamlessly, breathing new life into the genre in the process’. With Modern Grotesque, Dreamwell seeks to both pay tribute to the greats and to expand upon what a screamo band can be.
