Emo

So when I refer to decent emo, I tend to refer to bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Joie De Vivre, Capn Jazz, Penfold, The Van Pelt, etc. The reason I refer to them as this is because they seem to deal with a very mundane style sadness that one deals with everyday life.
Why is it that this album is often regarded as a quintessential emo album? It's melodramatic, commercialised garbage. Basically what introduced bands like Hawthorne Heights, Silverstein, Funeral For a Friend.

All the hands on Sup Forums couldn't count how many times I've heard it.

youtube.com/watch?v=dgzgY0yVnu0

I only listen to real emo

youtube.com/watch?v=_dzTn3W512E

also here's a classic

So why don't we discuss this gem of an emo album more often?

So fucking good

What would you concider The Story So Far?
youtube.com/watch?v=YvyNYC89k6g

Are they emo?

I like Snowing and Algenon Cadwallader, what's some similar shit to that? Don't name normal stuff like the world is beautiful dick and

you might like kidcrash

>emo
>melodramatic
you don't say

Man I used to like them. They're opening for Good Charlotte now. They're pretty emo but I feel like this album and the one before had a little more punch. Northern California pop punk for sure

theyre pop punk dumbass

hmm they kinda sound like Prawn, they're pretty sick but it's a little too fast and mathy. Do you know of anything a little slower and a little more melodic? I like how smooth Algernon Cadwallder is

is this what youre looking for?

Hmm the vocals on the first one remind me of an emo version of Highschool Football Heroes. youtube.com/watch?v=B2dmtJ5W1dY The music itself was really cool.

Brave Bird was a little too poppy I think. They're a little too close to Brand New or something. I like a little more twang and sloppiness to it all

I was gonna post this but I thought the vocals might be too rough for what you were looking for. All I can think of though.

emoesux

Yeah! This is nice. The lyrics are a little funny but whatever I'm an airchair artist tonight. The guitar was sick with the keys on the first half. Then they did the two guitar panned to each ear with some cool noodling. I definitely like the noodling with a more moderately paced beat

fuck you

emoe rules

youtube.com/watch?v=mzME1yyEXpY

the other songs on that EP are even better so listen to the whole thing

t. emoe

i wish i could discover emo like you are again

if you like algernon and snowing listen to this
youtube.com/watch?v=O__htGT11K4

Damn, this is the first time I've seen this on Sup Forums. Was way into Album of the Year and Semantics of Song in high school. Glad to see there are other Cursive/Tim Kasher fans out there.

Post hardcore maybe?

you're correct

i've only heard the ugly organ but it's great imo

this is gud

are you 14

its slowcore dingus

nah it's space rock

yup

I still cringe to this day knowing I liked this album in highschool. Fucking pathetic past life.

Penfold fucking sucks, they're like a clean and cheesy version of Mineral. Also there's nothing wrong with being melodramatic, SDRE and Joie de Vivre are melodramatic too

It mixes the best of every world into one of the most emotional records ever created

lol pitchfork kids are everywhere

Taking Back Sunday are GOAT you pleb. Also they were one of the first bands to really popularise that particular poppy strain of emo, along with Brand New and The Get Up Kids.

I'll take TBS over some run-of-the-mill twinklecore crap like You Blew It! or TWIABP any day.

which is basically what emo is, except emo is also "sad"

>tfw Love, Claire and Bluetile Lounge go completely undiscussed even though they are the best slowcore bands.

lol, wait till you get even older and stop caring about dumb shit like that. you might even like it again

shut up idiot im sure you found them from mu

Nope. Bluetile I found from the RYM slowcore charts and Love, Claire I found from the sole Bluetile Lounge interview.

I like this one.

This, i miss the energy the early 2000s style had, closer to a post hardcore sound. Twinkle is boring

who knows. shouldn't anything emotional be considered emo? why are tigers jaw and teen suicide emo, when car seat headrest is lo-fi? it seems to be more about the scene you came up in, rather than the actual music you make

there mediocre pop punk

I kill giants

Space Rock

la dispute is absolute shit if that's what you're asking

bleutile lounge are trash senpai

Please do not insult You Blew It! Thanks.
