The Emo Thread Genre • Page 12

I’ve gotten so bad at listening to stuff that’s even 6 months old, something I need to get better at. I totally blame streaming services. I do love that Fox Wound record.

 

new Beach Bunny EP is out. Listen if you like good music

 

sick heads up

 

I only like bad music. What should I check out?

 

McCafferty

 

They just broke up haha

 

Just when I thought today couldn’t get any better!

 

I found Do You Know Who You Are? by Texas Is the Reason on vinyl recently (not a real rare find btw) and it threw me into a big 2nd Wave Emo kick. Sunny Day Real Estate, Texas is the Reason, The Promise Ring, American Football, and Cap'n Jazz specifically.

 

That Paper Rival album is actually one of my favorites. I randomly google them every once in a while hoping for a reunion. Safe to say that isn't going to happen.

 

Unfortunately the band ended on bad terms so yeah I don't see it ever happening. That record turned 10 years old this year pretty wild. Still one of my favorites of all time.

I bolded Safe to Say because that's a band that imo doesn't get mentioned enough on Chorus. Hiding Games EP and Down in the Dark LP are both excellent releases. Both releases are great alt rock/emo with some nice grunge and post-hxc influences.

 

Can't believe its been 10 years. It sucks the singer never did anything either. Loved his songwriting

 

ya'll need to be aware that we're getting a new Young Jesus album in October.

 

Never listened to this band but saw a couple of their tour dates with Ian Sweet and Sean Henry get announced and immediately confused them with Slim Jesus

 

@Kennedy

 

checked out Sean Henry for the first time last week, good stuff. idk who Slim Jesus is though haha. I'd give s/t from last year a spin, one of my favorites from 2017.

 

Sean Henry is great, check out his old band High Pop too if you haven't.

Slim Jesus was some 17 year old wannabe Eminem kid who was a meme like 3 years ago

 

Love Young Jesus so much.

 

Young Jesus > old Jesus and thick Jesus > slim Jesus change my mind

 

Idek where to post this but where do people even buy band shirts now?



Sincerely,

Old man river

 

i think at shows mostly?

 

Shows but also tons of bands and labels have merch, you just gotta google the band you want merch from with keywords such as merch/ shirt/ store etc. and you will definitely come across whatever they have available

 

midnight, it’s going to look sad
