very nice
I keep seeing the term "fifth wave emo", does it actually mean anything other than "new emo"
― intern at pepe le pew research (Simon H.), Friday, 16 April 2021 13:59 (three years ago) link
no
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Friday, 16 April 2021 14:08 (three years ago) link
i haven't seen any evidence that suggests we've moved on from the "fourth wave" whatever that is

I personally have no ska nostalgia so I have no use for this (clever as the new arrangements are) but some of you might!

this band doesn't really fit this thread but i'm hard pressed to think of a better one, plus everyone here should be into it. whole album is very good. riyl: charly bliss, specific members of boygenius... idk, it's occurring in that spot. full disclosure i'm dating the person who signed this band lol

The Alternative posted this with a RIYL of Oso Oso, Fountains of Wayne and Macseal ... i punched a hole in my mouse clicking on it:

It's not the best thing you'll hear today but it's pretty snappy indie-pop-rock.

Good track. So can somebody trace the growth of vocal processing in emo/pop-punk/etc? Feels like it's become more and more prominent, not just Autotune but feeding vocals through all kinds of effects. I don't mind it, I think it can be used well, I'm just unclear on when it really permeated these genres.

Like I love the way Fritz uses vocal fx on this track.

it seems unfair that there's already a band called tiny moving parts because that's the perfect description of their sound
the samples are a riot

yeah ... this album is just awesome. those dudes are clearly just exploding with ideas, pretty much all of them good.
― alpine static, Wednesday, 5 May 2021 08:10 (two years ago) link
I'm not sure it's actually better than Somewhere City which makes sense since apparently a bunch of this material predates it? but it clearly rules
― intern at pepe le pew research (Simon H.), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 12:47 (two years ago) link
easily better imo tho both great records
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 12:50 (two years ago) link
i too am surprised that i find the double album more consistent but every song is a hook factory

the more juvenile lyrics keep me at arm's length but I recognize this is a Me Problem

I'm real finicky about lyrics lately for some reason
― intern at pepe le pew research (Simon H.), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 13:24 (two years ago) link
the juvenile lyrics are a pro for me because i am a grown-up child having a midlife crisis. every time that Taco Bell song comes i close my eyes and am back in my '91 Ford Taurus with my buddies after playing basketball all night.

ok gami gang is really fun, wildly overflowing with hooks & ideas
― ufo, Friday, 7 May 2021 06:37 (two years ago) link
no denying they are overflowing with ideas and ambition but I just have not been able to get into this yet. I liked the last one too but I think these lyrics are preventing me from really clicking with it. Going to keep trying.

more screamo than anything but should work for this thread I think. from what i understand this will be their final release and is a re-working of past material but I really like this short and sweet energy bomb of an albumhttps://youthnovel.bandcamp.com/album/youth-novel
Guitarist Maya Chun is great as always. Apparently was involved in Serpent Column too which I love.
