my wife introduced me to Left & Leaving, which I voted for... previously I had always thought they were too wimpy emo for me and was pleasantly surprised

Hi, another dutch northerner and Elite fan calling in :) Haven't listened to it in 10+ years but will put it on tonight. It's sort of an anomaly (and definitely the peak) in their oeuvre.

We've got a Dutch northern quartet here guys :) Elite and 3 Mile Pilot my fave takeaways from this so far.

fun emo fact: I went on a date in Ottawa with a girl who freaked out that I knew who the Hotelier were, we bonded over shared emo loves, had what seemed to be a v nice time, and then I never saw her again until a few months later when she was out walking with some dude she was definitely dating. the end

:( so emo

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:01 (seven years ago) link

**Quick VG emo listening update***
Saves The Day - good but i dont think i like the vocals
The Promise Ring - omg omg. I am so in love with this sound + vox. Weirdly they sound a bit like mid-late 90's Australian grunge & therefore I'm in heaven.

Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:02 (seven years ago) link

Saves the Day vox will grow on you. trust.

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:03 (seven years ago) link

Spottie, you're not on slsk?

ArchCarrier, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:04 (seven years ago) link

VG are you a jimmy eat world fan?

gr8080, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:05 (seven years ago) link

what I know, yep

Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:18 (seven years ago) link

ah yeah i forgot about the inevitable death cab onslaught

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:24 (seven years ago) link

I used to really like this album but I havent heard it in years.

Odysseus, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:25 (seven years ago) link

Voted for a different Death Cab but this is a cool record i think i'd feel much stronger about if i had heard it earlier in life

devvvine, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:26 (seven years ago) link

the only DCFC record I really like

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:27 (seven years ago) link

xxp - LBI, cool! We should all get together for beers on Friday night for the reveal of the top 10.

ArchCarrier, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:27 (seven years ago) link

I liked up to and including Transatlanticism II cant remember if i liked plans or not but I think i did

Odysseus, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:28 (seven years ago) link

same

call all destroyer, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:28 (seven years ago) link

the track sequencing, particularly on the back half, is tremendous

call all destroyer, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:30 (seven years ago) link

First DCFC I heard was the Photo Album, and it might be my least favorite of their pre-Plans records. And yet, because of the time in my life when I discovered it...

Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:49 (seven years ago) link

too high

gr8080, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:49 (seven years ago) link

wayyyyy too low

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:50 (seven years ago) link

perfect from start to finish

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:50 (seven years ago) link

WAY too low, I was sure this would be a top tenner

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:55 (seven years ago) link

can't believe it was only on 5/30 ballots!

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 17:56 (seven years ago) link

Never listened to MCR because I always thought they were nu-metal or something. I guess I should?

ArchCarrier, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:00 (seven years ago) link

you what

the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:00 (seven years ago) link

^^^a song so undeniable even alex in NYC loved it

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:02 (seven years ago) link

hah, uh i left this off somehow. thought it was in my top 15... shuolda been.

I know the girl who played Helena in the vid. Daughter of nfl coach w@de phi11ips.

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:03 (seven years ago) link

helena one of the best videos ever

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:03 (seven years ago) link

Damn. Why didn't anyone tell me?

ArchCarrier, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:04 (seven years ago) link

@ArchCarrier can't make it Friday but it's a good idea for sometime later!

MCR and I never gelled.

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:04 (seven years ago) link

this album was my gateway into discovering that I was wrong to ignore mainstream emo

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:05 (seven years ago) link

I guess I have listened to this album before? "Helena" is super familiar.

THAC0 Pastorius (Tom Violence), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:05 (seven years ago) link

helena was EVERYWHERE. such a perfect belter

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:07 (seven years ago) link

i understand why they're maligned by serious music fans bc mcr is like the quintessential hot topic band but also the album is hot fire straight thru.

Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:08 (seven years ago) link

also for new MCR converts do not sleep on Black Parade and particularly "Teenagers"

Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:09 (seven years ago) link

Ghost Of You is my fav on here

Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:09 (seven years ago) link

Does this mean Black Parade isn't going to place? That would be a shame.

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:09 (seven years ago) link

i could be coy but honestly if it doesn't place it's not like we're coming back to it so get yr black parade comments out now imho

Mordy, Wednesday, 8 March 2017 18:10 (seven years ago) link

'Teenagers' is forever associated in my mind with the memory of tarantino telling zane lowe it was his favourite song at the time
