I WENT SHOPPING with Refused for shirts with epaulettes so they could become the International Noise Conspiracy and suck more

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:18 (nineteen years ago)

imagine how ~~rich~~much poorer i could be if my label had lasted more than three releases

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:18 (nineteen years ago)

both Refused and Rocket From The Crypt are on the Crank soundtrack.

I WAS THE FIRST GUY playing Pulp songs for the Killers fans to dance to

I WAS THERE at the first We Are Scientists rehearsals, in Pomona, I got a ride over from Ukiah with AFI

SHAMEFUL EMO CONFESSIONS TIME: in high school for a few months I was the token non-emo drummer in an emo band (back when a screamy band with prog song structures and political lyrics could be considered "emo" at least). I just googled the band's name and it was listed in a MySpace profile as one of this guy's fave bands (how we would've heard us in Alabama I have no idea):

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:21 (nineteen years ago)

few drummers are ever in the genre their band is in

haha ca. 2000 my roomate and I went from listening to "shape of punk to come" in amused to disgust, to listening to it all the fucking time

― gff, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

haha dig that promise ring-ian design

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

"amused to disgust"?? jesus i am the typo emo songtitle generator today

― gff, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

it was released by K-tel, pic hyperlinked from the Compound Red website

― da croupier, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

remember that "design" issue of punk planet? a hundred thousand people with a cracked copy of photoshop learn to left-align a sans-serif font.

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

oh shit a million xposts, but jon i think he screams to much for The Future of What to be emo

― Mr. Que, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:26 (nineteen years ago)

haha I love that dude has a like 12 year old digital camera. It stores pics on FLOPPIES.

― nickalicious, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:26 (nineteen years ago)

ian sevonious's talk show is strange. the one w/bonnie prince billy was real uncomfortable/hilarious.

i listened to that refused cd awhile back, it doesn't seem as weird now, or as crazy after hearing stuff that came later like dillinger escape plan.

― M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

and make up hasn't aged real well for me, but they really fucking killed live

― M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

I could've swore that X-Files soundtrack had a Ween song, too.

― nickalicious, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

make up records have aged terribly but yeah they were good live

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

never getting to see NOU live goes on the regrets list

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

I saw The Makeup about 2 years ago in the tiniest little place, like 40 capacity. It was the loudest show they ever had there.

― nickalicious, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

The Make-Up toured two years ago?!

― da croupier, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

I looked up the video for "New Noise" on youtube a while back, and the comments were full of kids going "who are these fags and why are they totally ripping off [insert emo act from 2004]."

They were very adamant that Refused were homosexuals, and that that was why they wore sweaters.

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:29 (nineteen years ago)

i'd agree with that

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:29 (nineteen years ago)

i think i should go to a nu-emo show this weekend

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:30 (nineteen years ago)

the X-Files TV soundtrack didn't have a Ween song but the X-Files movie soundtrack did

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:30 (nineteen years ago)

strongo i wouldn't even know where to go for a nu-emo show round here, do you? does the sidebar book emo bands or would it be someone's living room out in the county?

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

fletchers?

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

listening to the myspace stream of the new Dinosaur Jr. album is pretty much the perfect soundtrack for this thread

― M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

i just kind of assume everything they book that's a band whose name i dont recognize is emo

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

haha wait did i miss the MCR show at merriweather??

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

OMG IT'S TONIGHT

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

yessssss take camera plz

― gff, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:33 (nineteen years ago)

there is sadly no way i can get to merriweather tonight

also, my sister is coming to visit and she would kill me if i took her to mcr show

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)

Okay that Makeup show might have been anywhere from 2-5 years ago, which was the span of time that venue was open. My memories of those years interestingly enough all sort of blend together.

― nickalicious, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)

i've always wanted to post this, but didn't have a place...anyway these guys, Quietdrive, are from Mpls but have gotten kinda bit in nu-emo circles...they are signed to Sony now...

but yeah if you ever wanted to hear the inevitable emo cover of "Time After Time" by Cyndi Lauper, it's the first song on their myspace:

Quietdrive

― M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)

instead i am taking her to noise show in loft

uh

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)

my little brother went to see my chemical romance last month i think? i dont want to throw out any big spoilers but the singer starts the show by getting rolled out in a hospital bed onto the stage like in the video

― A B C, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:35 (nineteen years ago)

hey anthony they're playing state college on sunday if you feel like going home for the weekend

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:36 (nineteen years ago)

eh, who wants to see MCR play all of Black Parade + a little of the good old stuff in the encore anyway

I tend to assume that the anonymous local bands at Fletcher's these days are the kinds of hopeless alt rock/nu metal bands that used to play at Hal Daddy's back in the day but your assumption might be closer to the truth

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:37 (nineteen years ago)

Correction to Ultragrrl: MRC = this generation's GnR, if you roll together all of their videos and soundtrack it all with "Don't Cry"

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:38 (nineteen years ago)

i wonder if there's an emo underground in baltimore

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:38 (nineteen years ago)

the young, unsigned, and hungry

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:38 (nineteen years ago)

remember y'all

When I was a young boy
my father took me into the city
to see a marching band
And he said

Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you, baby

― nabisco, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:39 (nineteen years ago)

pretty much every monday I think about walking down to Fletcher's for 98 Rock's "NOISE IN THE BASEMENT" local showcase. maybe someday i will go and see if there is emo.

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:40 (nineteen years ago)

yeah i wonder what those are like

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:40 (nineteen years ago)

straight-up rock bands without enough of a "niche" to play in any of the sub-genre circuits around town maybe

― strongohulkington, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, like I said those things make me flash back to the "and now, a band that sounds like Tool...and now, a band that sounds like RHCP" vibe at Hal Daddy's, which i believe was before your time

― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 27 April 2007 21:42 (nineteen years ago)

that MMR=albini jawbox article?
