Run Quick EMO ALBUMS; Here I’ll POLL, You VOTED

I WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH A PIECE OF THE PAST CAUGHT IN MY THROAT

AND THEN I CHOKED

yeah every song on devil and god is a compressed explosion in some way

"not the sun" is my Devil and God fave these days

God I wish they'd made another album. Putting that little bit of an '80s guitar-pop chime on top of those raw-ass vocals is when it all came together

mine is always and forever "limousine" xp

the hard panned backing vox kill me every time

Completely forgot to vote for Rites of Spring! Would've been top 10 in my ballot so I'm glad it's high here too. Listening to Brand New while walking in the night, it's a great feeling

And this one. That intense, hyperventilating reimagining of 80s John Hughes soundtrack pop. Never heard any band (1986 aside, obviously) do anything remotely like this

But in my veins
A trace remains
TRACE REMAINS OF ME

5. Sunny Day Real Estate - How It Feels to Be Something On (1998)
496 points, 13 votes, 1 number one

hell yeah

again, last three tracks on this are the best

i always think of this album as uneven but when i listen to it i'm just constantly thrilled, even/especially during "the prophet"

i stood outside the Metro for 2 hours watching scalpers sell tickets for $100 to this show before someone sold me one at face value, just in time to see them take the stage: https://youtu.be/hyx95ZoVEZ8

lmfao at someone screaming "DIARYYYYYYY" in the first second of that video

my only SDRE vote

lol xp

title track is absolutely my fav sdre song i think

that and "faces in disguise"

Yes! My #1, pretty much a perfect album, haven't ever found anything that sounds quite like it.

Diary has always felt so dull and lifeless when i've heard it but the conversation itt made me listen to The Rising Tide which is great! looking forward to spending more time with the other sdre albums.

Rising Tide is my favourite because it's so weird, but I am happy this is here

One of the only times my mom let me skip school was so I could buy this album first thing in the morning on release day.

I like some tracks from How it Feels but I didn't vote for it. The first two records are much more canonical in my mind. Should probably give it some more attention.

aw.

xp

After Rites of Spring showed up I'm pretty sure that none of my remaining records will place, but this has still been a lot of fun.

so at this point i'm p sure 2 will be 90's, 3 will be 00's... ?

4. Dismemberment Plan - Emergency & I (1999)
499 points, 15 votes, 1 number one

Thirded (xposts)

there it is. maybe aged the worst of any album i loved at the time.

lol I'm dumb

o shit i was wrong on my 90s/00s breakdown :-0

lol i also think change is much better but voted for this cause it felt more emo

p much every one of my friends was berzerk over this when it came out

I saw them in like 95-96 touring for "!" & hated them, then when E&I came out couldn't believe it was the same band

I voted for this one

Yeah I find a few of these songs grate on me like "You Are Invited" or "What Do You Want Me To Say." I like them but "Face Of The Earth" and especially "Superpowers" are songs I can enjoy anytime.
