listen to Moss Icon
Still a favorite of mine. Maybe a little bit too long, but emotional buildups are some of the best I've heard.
I always wondered this: does every midwest emo band have the same singer??
>between one june and september you're all i remember ;_____;
still one of the best emo records ever
Slint + The Smiths + Sonic Youth = Sultans of Sentiment

this year's best

What are some good emo band with edge like Rites of spring but with more meterial? seems like every emo band put out like one album and close the deal.
pic related is gonna be the new wave of emo mark my words
emo is some of the worst shit imagineable
i would rather have k-pop threads shitting us up than emo threads
I love the art for that album
basedest most comprehensive emo chart
This album is so fucking good.
This.
Kys, take your pop punk elsewhere
already posted above but Moss Icons discography is decently lengthy and they have the dc grit you mentioned. Also Dag Nasty are good and Drive Like Jehus discography is amazing.
Adjacent scenes grandpa, the forerunners in current day emo are influenced by pop punk and play the same gigs
>yellow fever faggot
Your indie pop isn't emo you zoomer. If it isn't hardcore based, it isn't emo. Go enjoy your shitty modern baseball.
Genres evolve get over it. No one listens to modern baseball. Your favorite bands that are still involved in the scene that have hardcore and screamo backgrounds are the same figureheads supporting these bands. Go back to rym
Emo influences =/= emo
Real emo copypasta
>taking the bait
My favorite band is brand new btw
My fav album is Just Came Back From the Discomfort, but this is a hidden gem that is really fucking good and I don't see much people talking about it here. Has some of that dynamic style reminiscent of TBLA.
I started listening to emo the summer I started college at 18 yo after watching Pitchfork's video about history of emo. Before that I thought emos listened to shitty contemporary "post-hardcore" such as Sleeping with Sirens and all that. When I saw what emo was about and heard the classics (cap'n jazz, american football, sunny day real state) I really fell in love. It captures like an american suburban high school/college life with I idealized, because I live in Spain and always thought that living in your late teens/early twenties in an american suburb would be awesome. Going to parties at college, doing things with your friends on summer, playing with your band in a garage... Emo just captured that really good for me. Then I stayed because of the emotional part of it. I think that it does a really good job on making you feel emotional. There has been only 2 songs that have made me tear a bit of pure emotion, and one of it is an emo song.
After all that I finally discovered TBLA, which I listened to it really late, having listened to a lot of other emo bands, and the emotional intensity of Just Came Back from the Discomfort doesn't compare to anything else I've listened to.
Is My Chemical Romance actually good? I am a lot into emo but have never listened to them becausd I thought it wasn't actual emo as I know it. Do you really recommend it? What am I for?
Forgot to attach image.
Why can't I upload the image??
Anyway the album was I dont want to look at the Stars by Karas Walk Home.
No, completely a meme band for scene kids
Okay, thanks for saving my time.
Based.
just listen to it retard. its a worthwhile album
Which one? That one or is The Black Parade better?
Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge is more emo
Black Parade is "art rock" for 12 year olds
>seems like every emo band put out like one album and close the deal.
I completely agree with your premise, but you couldn't have picked a worse example. In 1986, most of RoS reformed as One Last Wish and put out an EP. The following year, they completely reformed as Happy Go Licky and eventually an excellent live album was released.
the other responses are good choices too.
some have spongebob
Everyone is talking about MCR but no one has mentioned that FOB (the clearly inferior band) is also on that shit list
This is pretty good. biggerbettersun.bandcamp.com
I'M HERE TO POST THE GREATEST ALBUM OF ALL TIME
Fuck dads
Will check it out. Thanks.
for me it's castevet

Bring back emoe
boomer coming through
Gen X was baby bust relative to those previous.
got introduced to emo by my friend's older brother, who copied a tape of the get up kids - four minute mile for him. my friend didn't want it so he gave it to me.
ordered the cd from the initial records catalog and was lucky enough to see a lot of emo bands come through my hometown in the midwest.
were emo kids the first incels?
Nah, Neanderthals
Coming through with some (mostly) one hit wonders. I used to love my little slice of emo. But I haven't found any bands I've liked for almost 20 years. They're probably out there. I should dig into rym or something. I don't like most of the bands that get posted here alot (BLA, Snowing, ANFIIC, Brand New, etc). Dikembe was okay. I'll check out those BC links. If anyone knows about some modern analogues to the stuff below, please tell me.

It certainly raises the question of it being aoty user..
Well this is a comfy listen lads
Eldritch Anisette is pretty cool if you like girl vocals. I see people looking for emo with girl vox pretty often.
youtu.be
I really hope so. It would be cool a new wave of emo bands which has this progressive and creative songwriting as TBLA. This and Kara's Walk Home are good examples. I hope emo continues this trend and evolves on it. I think it has a lot of potential.
I think the reunion EP is just about as good.
It's alright, but I still prefer Native Nod.
This is great. Especially the first few songs. You should check out Prozac Memory and the last Chino Horde 7" if you haven't already.
Goth Rock + Prog Metal + Post Hardcore=emo? idk, but I've seen this mentioned in emo discussions before. Listening now, it's better than I remembered.
That can be hard to find. EA is nice. Here are some of my picks. Beekeeper in particular are amazing.

jammin new Camping in Alaska track, pretty dope
id say gospel counts as emo. its a a guy screaming about being sad, it's not as if most 'emo' albums fit under the original label anyway. it's pretty great insutrumentally but a few of the songs overstay their welcome.
I thought it was kind of underwhelming, but I have to listen to it in the context of the album.
before the /r/emos flame me seperate art and artist, and this isnt FBHF
been on a chinese football vibe lately.
dude its one of the top emo albums on rym and its circlejerked here even more than af1
post emo you would wholesomely dedicate to a cute girl
Yeah, I was actually referring to Kara's Walk Home, but for some reason Yea Forums didn't upload the photo.
Amazing album/band, it's a shame the singer was a piece of shit. I remember listening to this on repeat with my best friend in high school.
im listening to this for the first time high and this first song is like an indescribable lovecraftian horror
i love this shit
When is the release coming out?
I still haven't found an album as intense and emotionally crushing as pic related
Corea is alright I like them
one of my favorite records of all time and i want more like it
Midwest Pen Pal’s Inside Jokes EP has to be my favorite album currently. Something about it just makes you nostalgic for memories you never had. The drum work is amazing, the guitar riffs are as twinkly as ever... It’s just an all around amazing experience. Especially with its completely unexpected last track, Movies Like Juno, which sounds almost nothing like the rest of the album, and it’s my personal favorite song. Nonetheless, from Leaving Songs to Movies, it’s definitely an experience worth having.
“This is not an inside joke
That we'll make a song about later”
hey emo kids if anyone is courageous enough to contribute to my emo album by recording some dumb poetry (poetry provided) to your phone's mics than please visit this thread in worksafe requests section
Give me some emo that isn't terrible pansy shit.
youtube.com
Probably the most dissonant and paranoid emo album I've heard.
Love this band. We Know Where You Sleep is my favourite by them. A real shame they broke up. Haven't listened to anything the members went on to do.
It totally captures the essence of boyhood. it's fucking great, and to think the guys who made it were all around the age of 18 is really impressive. They must be about to hit their 30s now :(
Some of their members formed The Nighty Nite. Haven't listened to that either, but people say it's pretty much the same sound.
bump
What’s your AOTYSF?
>saves screamo
Great band, one of my all-time faves. Bullets is pretty generic post-hardcore, but Three Cheers is greaat. Probably closer to pop punk than "tr00 emo" or whatever but it's nice.
Still love this record. Was lucky enough to have seen them on their last tour
Huge fan, listend to all kinds of emo, skramz, midwest and emo-pop, all of it has amazing stuff for everyone, pic related has connected with me the most lately.
Fellas, what are some good blogs/sites/etc to track new emo releases?
Sophie's floorboard
Dogs is such a great song.
Thanks a lot!
Really nice math rock emo band from Japan. Sounds like a mixture of sad anime endings and midwest emo with awesome guitar arrengements. You should check them out.
youtu.be
what do you think of this
can someone recommend something like this? it's the album that got me into emo, but i couldnt really recreate the fascination i have about this album. TWIABP comes really close tho
good shit
From what I recall did the singer really do anything bad? If i remember correctly didnt he just bang a drunk chick while drunk himself and then afterwards she regretted it? Is that such a bad thing?
nowadays being unable to please a womyn=r*pe
oh fug i gotta step my game up
But i looked further into it, apparently he also assaulted a 15 yo girl
youtube.com
right here bro
maybe unpopular but I think their first album "I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love" is actually a decent post-hardcore album desu.
everything after that I rly don't care for. they lot post-hardcore roots and went too pop-punk
great album, super underrated. can't find much information about this band in english, not even on Sophie's floorboard.
Ostraca is saving screamo rn. any other active worthwhile screamo bands? Ostraca is my favourite active one
youtube.com
absolute kino
Death cab is awful
I wouldn't call Bullets generic. It still has the songwriting quality of the 2 albums following IMO, if not better. The only real problem with it is the obvious lack of a mixing/producing budget.
>What are some of your favorite albums, especially hidden gems?
I listened to Just Got Back From The Discomfort at least 60 times front to back.
This song right here is definitely a hidden gem but it's more Skramz that anything
youtube.com
I've actually been looking for more like this and IWHACIYY if anybody has anything
I prefer Bullets and Three Cheers but Black Parade is still a great album, who cares if 12 year olds listened to it?
Either way we do have MCR to thank for this hardcore electropunk emo gem.
Any midwest emo bands with vocals more like snowing? I love the instrumentation but I can't stand the vocals in bands like Tiny Moving Parts or This Town Needs Guns.
He fucked, that's all. r/emo shits on them because they are tranny faggots
reddit.com
inb4 reddit hur
he forcibly raped a 15 yr old when he was 21
Nah, it's all tumblr core shitty pop punk posers.
>This song right here is definitely a hidden gem but it's more Skramz that anything
you don't know what you're talking about.
pg. 99 is one of the most famous skramz bands in the history of the genre, cited alongside Orchid.
and In Love with an Apparition is their most popular song.
>I've actually been looking for more like this
less blackened than pg. 99 but if you think they're a hidden gem I assume you don't know anything about the scene.
so, look into Orchid, Daïtro, Ostraca, and Raein
If this counts as emo it's the best emo album this decade
...
That's a cute boy
when i said hidden gem i meant most people won't just stumble upon it by accident but given the context i guess that was stupid to say, my apologies
>look into Orchid, Daïtro, Ostraca, and Raein
thanks much
also check out Tristan Tzara, very chaotic skramz from germany. And iwrotehaikus are also very good.
how the fuck has pic related not been posted yet?

although its still a very solid album, I dont know how anyone can think its better than Power Of Failing
And yet I hear everyone arguing over which is the best mineral album
Well yeah, Endserenading is.

lmao its always funny to see emo fags act like elitists about their shitty genre
you're shitty
whatever helps you refrain from cutting at night, pussy
yeah nice stereotype, retard
go jerk off to genesis or something
I'm beginning to think you don't even like emo
endserenading is without a doubt my favorite album ever made

As far as emo goes, I've only listened to American Football album and quite liked it.
Are there any similar emo bands/albums?
a fuckton
you being a whiny bitch just enforces that stereotype
But you do you
Is the new American Football album worth listening to?
for sure. way better than LP2, not as great as LP1, but definitely worth a listen
Maybe try You Blew It!. I don't think there's any band that has the exact style of American Football, but that band reminds me a bit of AF. Maybe because it has that same nocturnal emo vibe. Try their last album Abendrot.
Bump
Fuck your dad. All 3 of their releases are great.
Maybe TWIABPAIANLAFD? I don't like Foxing but they have the whiny vocals down just as well.
This chart has some solid gold...
but someone needs to replace Loma Prieta's IV with Last City.
