rolling emo/pop-punk/embarrassing music 2018

vox on the Joyce Manor single are a little sleepy but otherwise sounds great. "You're an asshole from a bar on a break in a break room, and you've never happy..."

the second Foxing single is fucking great, hearing all five versions in a row was a delight

god i love this song

Restorations and JM playing here on back to back nights, blessed times

i'm putting out an album the same month as joyce manor and it's extremely weird for me bc they're one of the reasons i'm in a band at all

!!!

whoa brad awesome

way more bands should do the multiple-language thing! listening to the versions back to back on a loop has been extremely zen

i love "slapstick" and "nearer my god" SO MUCH

I've listened to both a frankly embarrassing # of times

give me the fuckin album already

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKNvSNPR-Bs

well that is fucking outstanding

weirdly reminds me of qotsa

and early mars volta

imago to thread

I admit my first thought was Muse

should i make a thread for the foxing record

yes imo we have a lot of geeking out to do

new basement song! they're on fbr now????

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug1ZNRwcF84

that song is so jimmy eat world

they don't seem to get nearly as much chatter as a lot of bands in this world, but i think that last Basement album is damn near perfect.

I keep going back to the Mom Jeans record - a much more creative and diverse variant on a lot of superficially similar records I've heard this year

another new Restorations jam

Thin Lips record is very good. Some pretty Doug Martsch-y guitar tones here and there, and I love the vocals.

"Saying Yes" sounds alarmingly like an outtake from the Partner album. Good record!

i guess i can tell y'all that mewithoutyou are putting out my album of the year

xp I like that a lot!

shh but yes. info will be out soon enough tho

i guess i can tell y'all that mewithoutyou are putting out my album of the year

sure, but your album of the century?

that too

and turns out the new say anything song is actually real good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RkkHmLWimM

the initial analogue i've thought of for the mewithoutyou album is a future lived in past tense

anyway they dropped a surprise ep today that’s basically just as good as the album that comes out in early october

https://mewithoutyou.bandcamp.com/album/untitled-e-p-2

i think the tracklist for the album is totally amazing

1. 9:27a.m., 7/29
2. Julia (or, 'Holy to the LORD' on the Bells of Horses)
3. Another Head for Hydra
4. [dormouse sighs]
5. Winter Solstice
6. Flee, Thou Matadors!
7. Tortoises All the Way Down
8. 2,459 Miles
9. Wendy & Betsy
10. New Wine, New Skins
11. Michael, Row Your Boat Ashore
12. Break on Through (to the Other Side) [pt. Two]

i should make a thread for it at this point but i'm p sure it'd sink like a stone

I will probably buy it just for the packaging

I miss The Starting Line every day (even if they're back together) and that Real Friends song has killed me

Catching up on everything itt since the end of March and I am having the best time! Other highlights so far: Hopesfall, Charmer and Oso Oso (I like my emo as unambiguous as possible).

That new Ostraca EP is sounding wonderful too. They were high up my metal ballot last year and I expect will be on there again.

been sleeping on Oso Oso, whenever i saw the name i just assumed it was chillwave

Wait, WHAT?!?

it's not quite that far out but it gives me the same feeling

Antarctigo Vespucci (Farren + Rosenstock) formally signed to Polyvinyl and are touring in the fall

for those with a love for screamo, the Gillian Carter album out today is really strong - fantastic cover art, too

got around to listening to the recent Senses Fail album. not bad.
any recommendations of something with that sort of guitar work and melody, but minus the screamo?

don't know what to call his stuff anymore, but the new Fred Thomas songs are fantastic
