well so far this is like a missing silverchair record between freak show and neon ballroom, take that as you will

the second half is giving me massive priest = aura-era the church vibes

and the final track eventually works itself into a gish-era-sp-type jam
phenomenal album

attn spottie, what do you think of the new acceptance album
i had no idea it existed until tim f told me about it today but i'm really surprisingly about the springsteenian shift in their sound
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 14 October 2020 20:03 (three years ago) link
warning for the general emo thread population, the acceptance record may exceed the limits of earnestness normally tolerated by the emo thread
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 14 October 2020 20:28 (three years ago) link
i listened to the black foxxes record twice in a row today, it's the real deal
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 14 October 2020 22:01 (three years ago) link
I'm generally a big fan of most anything Brad recommends but this:
reallllllly sold me.

listened to that acceptance album yesterday, thx brad. i think its ok, about half good. i get a lot of killers sound from it.
― Spottie, Thursday, 15 October 2020 17:30 (three years ago) link
about half good is where i landed as well, but that half is real good

dark age through wildfires is the highlight for me.

The Black Foxxes album isn't out yet, is it?
New Touché Amoré is really hitting the spot!

An emotional rock trio from Devon eh

lj you should listen to "badlands" and find out
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Friday, 16 October 2020 23:00 (three years ago) link
Oh this vocalist!!
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Friday, 16 October 2020 23:33 (three years ago) link
This is one of the most instantly arresting vocal presences in a while. The music is that good 90s stuff, as advertised
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Friday, 16 October 2020 23:34 (three years ago) link
Holy shit what has this turned into
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Friday, 16 October 2020 23:38 (three years ago) link
exactly
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Friday, 16 October 2020 23:54 (three years ago) link
so the best two emo bands in the world have 'fox' in the name then
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Friday, 16 October 2020 23:55 (three years ago) link
looking forward to "badlands" placing in the 77 and everyone getting mad at me
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Saturday, 17 October 2020 00:41 (three years ago) link
I will join that quest

love this youtube comment:
Haervi u3 weeks agoI’m strictly Electronic/minimal (the totally opposite) but I feel I have stumbled upon a track that the rock heads would die for😂
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Saturday, 17 October 2020 01:22 (three years ago) link
lol i noted that one too
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Saturday, 17 October 2020 09:31 (three years ago) link
finally got around to the touché amoré, this is fucking great
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Tuesday, 20 October 2020 22:45 (three years ago) link
i really liked stage four but this feels like the big leap

Ross Robinson, emo king

I'll stand behind that. Relationship of Command, Burn Piano Island, and now Lament. He has a lot of credits under his belt that I don't care for but its undeniable that he had a major role in some of my absolute favorite albums ever made.
― gman59, Wednesday, 21 October 2020 19:36 (three years ago) link
soupy from the wonder years confirmed the fireworks album is coming out this year. i sure hope so
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Sunday, 25 October 2020 16:55 (three years ago) link
soupy from the wonder years had best not be lying
― it bangs for thee (Simon H.), Sunday, 25 October 2020 22:51 (three years ago) link
brad you were not lying about the Black Foxxes album! what a huge step up for them.
― it bangs for thee (Simon H.), Thursday, 29 October 2020 17:10 (three years ago) link
Is it out? I'll happily listen to Badlands on repeat for 50m if not
― imago, Thursday, 29 October 2020 19:25 (three years ago) link
Oh I have to wait 4 hours, grr
― imago, Thursday, 29 October 2020 19:36 (three years ago) link
Yeah, this is great, even if Badlands towers above all
― imago, Friday, 30 October 2020 11:19 (three years ago) link
weirdly I'm only not totally sold on the epic closer? otherwise this is definitely scratching the neo-90s-altrock itch that Wolf Alice does for me
― it bangs for thee (Simon H.), Saturday, 31 October 2020 22:44 (three years ago) link
inner space rock
― imago, Sunday, 1 November 2020 05:56 (three years ago) link
it is a bit Radiohead for me to completely love it but I can see why Brad likes Panic so much, haha. And that last minute is an almighty payoff
the first four tracks are my favourite stretch because I'm an instant gratification junkie lol
― imago, Sunday, 1 November 2020 15:22 (three years ago) link
but that was the case with the Foxing album as well and I ended up loving all of it
― imago, Sunday, 1 November 2020 15:23 (three years ago) link
the fox bands need to do an album together
I also really like the closing track but my favourite bit of it is the songy opening stretch
― imago, Sunday, 1 November 2020 15:46 (three years ago) link
update: I have now listened to Black Foxxes a frankly embarrassing number of times
