I loved "Helena" so much! "Hang 'Em High" is one of my favourite deep cuts from Three Cheers.
i guess i would argue that it's wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too prog for this poll but it's also great so fine

Tbh, what I liked about what people were calling emo when I was first exposed to it was that it was like a new kind of prog rock.

i feel this! that gospel record just seems to slip out of even my expansive emo venn diagram
I am on a national express, alone, achey and tired from another city I didn't need to go to; this thread is perfect for me. Thanks guys.

I couldn't not vote for this, one of my favourite albums of the '00s (and definitely a big part of my initial emo phase).
― Gavin, Leeds, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:36 (seven years ago) link
"Sentimental Man" / "Face of the Earth" is one of the great opening salvos
uhh anyway this is another killer album I didn't actually vote for

One of you should do a hardcore/post-hardcore poll
― Odysseus, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:37 (seven years ago) link
I voted for a different Dismemberment Plan album
― Odysseus, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:38 (seven years ago) link
one of the more amusing inadvertently combined Spotify profiles
OK only just looked Gospel up and looooool.
― Gavin, Leeds, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:39 (seven years ago) link
This was the original list of genres on the nomination topic:
Emo, screamo, pop-punk, skate punk, mallcore, post-hardcore, ska punk, psychobilly and Warped Tour music
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:44 (seven years ago) link
oh christ i hope less than jake still arent to come!
― Odysseus, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:45 (seven years ago) link
i don't think any psychobilly records were nominated unfortunately

Hello Rockview was my #1 xpost
― Guy Pidgeotto (Tom Violence), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:47 (seven years ago) link
pretty sure there are at least 3 reel big fish albums yet to place
― Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:47 (seven years ago) link
god there are so many good joke #1 possibilities for this poll
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:48 (seven years ago) link
really didn't see the +44 album taking it
you say that and yet i was thinking last night had the box car racer album been nominated i would've considered voting for it
― the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:50 (seven years ago) link
#1 Emo album: The Amazing Royal Crowns s/t
― Guy Pidgeotto (Tom Violence), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:54 (seven years ago) link
Avril is still to place..
― Odysseus, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:54 (seven years ago) link
Okay, checking in again: I voted for no less than three Dismemberment Plan records. This is one of them. For some reason Change is a night time album for me, I've played this for years after coming home from the pub/shows. It's one of my favourite come-down records.
― Marty8501 (Marty Innerlogic), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:55 (seven years ago) link
I can definitely hear that. Even in its relatively manic moments it has a zen quality.
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 20:56 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, whereas Emergency & I is the opposite of that, it's frenetic, nervous, yet danceable.

Man I fucking love Hum until the end of the Earth but they are not emo imho (just to go back dozens of xposts)
Also fucking lol at The Amazing Royal Crowns reference
― I want to change my display name (dan m), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:06 (seven years ago) link
I voted for this
― Odysseus, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:07 (seven years ago) link
And folks, I tried with My Chemical Romance (and some others sure to come) and... I just can't :(
― I want to change my display name (dan m), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:07 (seven years ago) link
I voted for a different Bright Eyes album
― Marty8501 (Marty Innerlogic), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:07 (seven years ago) link
this is better than lifted but i assume lifted placed over it. regardless imo all of the bright eyes records aged horribly
― the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:10 (seven years ago) link
I agree 100% (after relistening to them for this poll lol)
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:13 (seven years ago) link
In wish I could reverse the discography sizes of bright eyes and desaparecidos

can't imagine listening to the fake interview on fevers and then deciding to vote for it in any capacity tbh
― the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:15 (seven years ago) link
F&M is my pick for most emo album cover. look at ur own feelings!!

Who was the first emo band to popularize "kerrang emo" the dudes in make up kind. Was it My Chemical Romance?

LC should be opening for THEM ;)
this album is so good

Anyway, this was my #2. Recency bias is so sweet yeah
― an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:30 (seven years ago) link
holy shit! I guess this means I shouldn't give up on other very recent albums huh
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:30 (seven years ago) link
and i agree they should be headlining this thing but i had no input into the booking
anyway, today results were fantastic but tmmrw is imo the best results of the entire thing (all entirely way TOO LOW) before rolling into the conclusion on friday
― Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:31 (seven years ago) link
uh oh i'm gonna be sad about the too lows
― the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 21:32 (seven years ago) link
aka emo
this is such a great album to end the day on tho i just put it on and i'm so psyched about this show. that opening track is so epic.
