rolling emo/pop-punk/shimmering maj9 chords 2019

I quite liked their first eps and that first record. they've got rid of the hopeful, earnestness that I liked about them and doubled down on rock cliche.

I like the Future Teens record, h/t Singles Jukebox

god bless Drug Church for slotting in a small Toronto headlining show in the middle of their tour w Thrice

man, i don't "get" the Glass Beach record/love.

i've been listening to their album for what feels like 45 minutes and i'm on track 3

and i've tried it 3 or 4 times now ... i guess it's not for me, but is for everyone else

they have a thread btw

gonna start the 2020 emo thread shortly

I was about to pester you!

I'm a little late on this one, but if you love The Maine or fellow southwesterners Anarbor (their tracks "Freaking Out!" and "Every High Has a Come Down" especially), check out "Twilight (My Heaven) from Philly band Grayscale. This rowdy, driving tune is loaded with those little elements that you'll find in most great songs, like a glorious pre-chorus, a bass-drum fill (!) midway through the chorus amidst the huge harmonies, and a few moments of silence amidst it all; and it just sounds fantastic blasting on your car stereo with the windows down. ("Baby Blue", another standout track of theirs from '19 album Nella Vita, is in the spirit of The 1975's "She's American")
