just every song on this album is BURSTING with melodies

"Thank you for the Venom" is so adorable, it always sounds like kiddie thrash to me (in a good way)
my fave is the closer, which I can never sit or stand still for

MCR was certainly not everywhere in my part of the world: only 'Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)' and 'Welcome to the Black Parade' ever hit the Dutch top 100, peaking at very respectable places 86 and 92.

Wait, you don't expect The Black Parade to place higher than this? I thought that was like THE ilx emo record.

I don't know anything anymore, everything I believed in is a lie (/emo)

this is not the one I voted for but it's good!

beautiful record

i think i didn't realize how good it was until paramore covered "faces in disguise" on the riot tour
i left this off my ballot and had Dairy in its place, which is stupid bc this is prob the SDRE i love the most
my circle of friends in lolcollege had 2 bros who listened to metal exclusively and when this album came out we evangelized to them relentlessly until they became dudes who listened to metal and the new SDRE exclusively. about a dozen of us went and saw them on this tour together and were so zealous in our singing along and swaying that most of the rest of the audience took note and the band at one point acknowledged us

awesome
― Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:33 (seven years ago) link
this album is way more Pearl Jam than emo imo, but who cares

singing along and swaying
― ArchCarrier, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:34 (seven years ago) link
exactly.
but we looked cooler and the music sounded way better
― gr8080, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:38 (seven years ago) link
Anyone who thinks Diary is better should listen to 'Disappear'. Or 'Snibe'.
Or their very best song, which they put in the final spot on their final release:

this isn't *really* emo (though the vocals help) but I couldn't not vote for it, my #4 and an all-time favorite

Ten bonus points for Imago!

some of the greatest, most expensive guitar sounds ever

God, that review.
I mainly felt OK voting for it cause I had a lot of extremely emo times listening to it
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:44 (seven years ago) link
you guys should probably also check out the Dear You review lol
yeah this was the album cover I was talking about
great, great album

love that hum record to death. wanted to vote for it but so many other albums just felt more right to me.
― Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:46 (seven years ago) link
might have been my #4 too
― an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:46 (seven years ago) link
189 points and four votes mean the other two votes must have been really fuckin high too (assuming 50 for a no. 1?)
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:47 (seven years ago) link
SDRE and Hum back to back <3
I felt too much out of my depth to vote in this poll, had no idea which way the emo pendulum would swing. Turns out it's surprisingly going into very different directions. Which is good. Should have voted. Rising Tide is the one for me, as great as Diary is.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:52 (seven years ago) link
glad mordy did a top 100. l
― Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:55 (seven years ago) link
I will forever maintain that this album would not be the commercial disaster it was had they released "Green to Me" or "If You Are to Bloom" as the lead single ("Comin' Home" was a *terrible* choice)
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:56 (seven years ago) link
if nothing else they both had sweet earwormy opening riffs
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:58 (seven years ago) link
Liking Hum so far, should have gotten round to them years ago. Think they were definitely an influence on Oceansize, and I now realise Lantlos' last album was basically a heavier version of this

iirc without four minute mile fall out boy would not exist
we're going to have to work out the most emo cover in the top 100 when this is all done
