The Emo Thread Genre • Page 336

This came out in 2021 but it is really great. I just discovered it. A mix of emo/post-hardcore/math rock.

 

Damn. One of the best emo albums from the era

 

Great album but endserenading is better ;)

 

that is correct

 

i agree

 

Both are pretty much perfect, but I still lean towards Power of Failing.

 

Power of Failing doesn't have "Palisade" so that automatically doesn't make it as good as EndSerenading

 

Daydrunks - When You Talk To Me

RIYL: The Sonder Bombs, Knope, Macseal

Okay so this is really good. The guitar riffs are just so nice - the kind that feel like you could listen to them on loop for an hour.

 

I haven’t listened to much of that era of emo, besides American Football S/T and JEW’s Clarity. What do you guys consider some of the touchstones of that era?

 

New wylie hopkins EP is very good. Gives me STRONG Daphne Loves Derby vibes mixed with elements of dltzk.

 

Both Mineral albums
Braid - Frame and Canvas
Texas Is the Reason - Do You Know Who You Are
Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary
The Promise Ring - Nothing Feels Good
The Get Up Kids - Something To Write Home About

 

this is sick

 

Also...

The Appleseed Cast - The End of the Ring Wars

and these next two are not widely considered emo but might as well be because they influenced the genre

Modest Mouse - This is a Long Drive for Someone With Nothing to Think About
... and The Lonesome Crowded West

At the Drive-in - Relationship of Command

 

I'll add The Anniversary's Designing a Nervous Breakdown, Jawbreaker's Dear You, Pedro the Lion's It's Hard to Find a Friend

 

The Van Pelt are great too

 

Everyone else touched on the big ones but I will add this afternoons malady by jejune, stereo by Christie front drive, and amateurs and professionals by penfold as slightly lesser known standouts

 

Yeah this is really good.

 

Someone posted this in the album release thread, feel like it belongs in this thread too.

 

Domestica by Cursive too!

 

Rainer Maria - Look Now Look Again
Seam - The Problem With Me
Elliott - False Cathedrals

other important albums to look listen to if you haven’t already!

 

WHY NOT - VERY WHY NOT

not sure whether to call this glitch pop or emo. It’s pretty cool though.
