rolling emo/pop-punk/shimmering maj9 chords 2019

the more time i spend with it the more i think the glass beach album is amazing

oh and this reminds me i need to check out the peaer record

should we make a thread for the glass beach it feels great enough to break away from the mothership

I was low on what I need to not live in constant agony in this world that wants to kill me in a million different tiny ways

Yesss do it!!

Whoa bad xp sorry!

ahahaha

morbid lol

I finally figured out what Glass Beach reminds me of - the second Paper Airplanes record. (the Glass Beach is way more unhinged and ambitious tho)

https://paperairplanes.bandcamp.com/album/scandal-scandal-scandal-down-in-the-wheat-field

idek what Turnover count as anymore but both of their new tunes are chill and lovely, seems a shame it didn't come out in time for summer

lastly idk how I missed that there's a new Tiny Moving Parts out Friday and they've released three excellent advance tracks? nothing really new but no one else writes concise hooky math-emo quite like them

aaand brad was not lying about the Microwave album. it's seriously good

the TMP is also good but in a more "on par" kinda way (nothing wrong with that)

yes the microwave is a scorcher

Can't stop listening to Modern Baseball's complete discography these past few days. They were such a good band, I really miss them.

While I'm here, I've got to also recommend the equally difficult to categorise and wonderful Glass Beach

whoa what the fuck is this record

i've been absolutely obsessed w this record ty tt+Brad

These guys are putting Toulouse, France on the pop-punk map:

https://nightwatcherspunk.bandcamp.com/album/la-paix-ou-le-sable

been jamming this very emo black metal record my pal put me on to

https://sadnessmusic.bandcamp.com/album/circle-of-veins

I wanted to like that Microwave album a lot because it reminds me of so many bands and sounds that i love, but couldn't fully get into it. I've been obsessed with the Glass Beach album since mentioned in here. Jesus. seem like really nice people too. got back to me after I said some nice things on instagram and they were lovely. Hope they come to ny.

it might have been a mistake to instinctively skip last year's Cursive record cause the advance tracks from the new one are sounding solid

holy crap this glass beach album is so balls-to-the-wall, it's like if los campesinos wrote the soundtrack to la la land

the new 95-minute Jeff Rosenstock record gives you a very good sense of their show right down to the anti-harassment warning, even if I'm mad "Get Old Forever" somehow didn't make the cut

*live record, sorry if that made anyone too excited lol

new 95-minute Jeff Rosenstock record wait what?... Aw shit yes, I'll be in on this today

i also just discovered the glass beach record lol

weird coincidence as I was just relistening. great album!!

Has anyone else tried the Weatherday album? Strong Brave Little Abacus vibes, but much faster and brighter. It takes roughly two seconds to begin digging the album a lot, and although it doesn't sustain that heart-in-stomach feeling all the way through, there are some insane highs.

Great Grandpa love: here or the indiepop/jangle thread?

... it seems my favorite pop-punk band fireworks has reunited. you can hear a new song after filling out the short silly survey on this page https://www.higherlonelypower.com/

hoo boy, that new song is really something

AAAAAHHHHHHH

This song is wild holy shit

good question. haven't listened to the full album yet, but the singles were all excellent.

i'm obsessed with the album. it gives me goosebumps.

i thought Plastic Cough was OK, but this one is a huge leap forward (pardon the cliche)

Oh wow, neither of you were lying about this Great Grandpa album.

you can listen to fireworks' "demitasse" outside of that weird webpage here: https://fireworksmi.bandcamp.com/

new album higher lonely power out in 2020

Very exciting

i can't believe two of my favorite bands reunited in the span of a week

oh wow this great grandpa album! the band name really put it off but i finally just put it on and i'm so glad i did!

I hesitate to make the comparison but it makes me think of a slightly more extroverted/rockin' Big Thief

Rosenstock + Stevenson have a Neil Young covers EP out! For some reason!

Rosenstock + Stevenson are Dead, Man.

Stereogum interviews/profiles Glass Beach:

they got signed to run for cover! i'm gonna make that glass beach thread now

thraed for the first glass beach album (and all subsequent glass beach albums)

said "oh shit" aloud to myself within the first few seconds of the great grandpa album

^^ wait till you get to tracks 4, 5, 7 and 8

this record poured directly out of my head

album of the year

or at least the future me hates me of the year

as much as I like that album I do get a "this is the one right before the amazing one" vibe from it
