BPIB is legendary but I hated Crimes so much I didn't bother with YM. Guess I oughta

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:37 (seven years ago) link

why in the world would you hate crimes

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:44 (seven years ago) link

Wow, so Bivouac is the best

tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:45 (seven years ago) link

among all the other reasons to thank this poll i have to give it credit for getting me into the blood brothers years after i dismissed them as not my thing

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:51 (seven years ago) link

I've probably listened to Bivouac more than any other album I own.

husked, tonal wails (irrational), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:53 (seven years ago) link

I think I listened to it when I was 14 and totally didn't get it at the time and have ignored it since. Favourite discovery of the rollout so far

tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:59 (seven years ago) link

i need to listen to that, and 3 mile pilot, and pinegrove, and bedhead

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:03 (seven years ago) link

That Unwound record has never done a single thing for me, I've tried a handful of times over the years, cant find a way in.

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:03 (seven years ago) link

Pinegrove was my highest 21st Century entry (at #11)

Self-edit. Obviously that's not true, I just forgot maths for a second. It is my favourite of this decade's emo releases though.

tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:14 (seven years ago) link

Jawbreaker have been a band I'd basically avoided because of the name? Which was an error

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:20 (seven years ago) link

'Fernandez Must Die' just started up on the Fireside album and me and imago looked up at each other which means 'omg'

tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:37 (seven years ago) link

Wait you two are together? I'm confused

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:39 (seven years ago) link

um why has nobody mentioned this album *ever*

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:40 (seven years ago) link

we're charlton's very own ilx poll voting bloc. a formidable force

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:40 (seven years ago) link

imago do you like three mile pilot

gr8080, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:42 (seven years ago) link

never heard. we're going to get around to everything though!

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:42 (seven years ago) link

they are like post-punk fairytale music

gr8080, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:43 (seven years ago) link

this thread will be some rich, rich pickings for music i never really got around to before and an incredibly valuable resource of emotional rock music

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:43 (seven years ago) link

imago needs to hear Three Mile Pilot before he goes to sleep. Brilliant band.

Odysseus, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:46 (seven years ago) link

My fave 3MP song
https://youtu.be/KDnrSu-lju4

Odysseus, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:48 (seven years ago) link

We have to listen to the entirety of every Dashboard release before that can happen.

tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:49 (seven years ago) link

that's a mistake! Every 3MP release is awesome. and Black Heart Procession were damn brilliant too.

Odysseus, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:50 (seven years ago) link

The 3MP song gr80 posted is great. Reminds me of Broken Social Scene a bit?

Loads on here to discover. Laughed seeing Bedhead placed, but thinking about it, it makes perfect sense to see it under the emo banner. Good work guys.

Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:54 (seven years ago) link

I love that lj is going to be forced to sit through multiple (!) dashboard albums

Mordy, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:55 (seven years ago) link

Fireside is straight-up ridic, amazing music

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:55 (seven years ago) link

I love that lj is going to be forced to sit through multiple (!) dashboard albums

He is going to love it!

tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:57 (seven years ago) link

I'm already crying

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:59 (seven years ago) link

i only know emo through a freshman year crash course amongst friends but

99. Elliott - False Cathedrals - massive album, "drive on to me" is a mfin ANTHEM, like caffeinated "don't stop believing". the follow up album song in the air is really good too.

a but (brimstead), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:00 (seven years ago) link

Don't wet the bed tonight xp

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:00 (seven years ago) link

Fireside has been crushing! Instant favourite. Ty so much to whoever voted it in

tangenttangent, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:25 (seven years ago) link

i discovered it during the campaigning thread! it's amazing!

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:33 (seven years ago) link

wait have y'all heard juno

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:34 (seven years ago) link

the ilx emo poll: the greatest juno discovery thread of all time

I'm not doing multiple albums, or even an entire one yet, but I did just stream "Screaming Infidelities" on Youtube (with a video of "hot emo boys") and I think "wtf?" is all I have to say rn.

My Body's Made of Crushed Little Evening Stars (Sund4r), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:36 (seven years ago) link

I do not know what that is! If it's not likely to show up during the rollout then I'll be sure to play it once I'm caught up between days, xp

tangenttangent, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:39 (seven years ago) link

Lol Sund4r, had you not heard it before? I think it's sole potency lies on 'your hair is everywhere' being such a weird and ubiquitous sentiment

tangenttangent, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:41 (seven years ago) link

I heard it in 00/01 or when it was new but not since.

My Body's Made of Crushed Little Evening Stars (Sund4r), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:43 (seven years ago) link

Oh wow Further Seems Forever sound awful so far.

My Body's Made of Crushed Little Evening Stars (Sund4r), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:43 (seven years ago) link

which further seems forever singer?

Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:44 (seven years ago) link

some iterations of the band are better than others (tho which are better and which are worse appears to be a subject of dispute)

Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:45 (seven years ago) link

I think it was "So Cold" and "The Sound" that Youtube was giving me.

My Body's Made of Crushed Little Evening Stars (Sund4r), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 00:46 (seven years ago) link

Dashboard Confessional sounds like the most emo band of them all
