Always love doing things like this! Maybe a top 10/20 limited to one artist? Love finding out what everyone else’s favourites are
Loved their last album and the Celebration Guns split but man this new A Place For Owls album is special.
A lot of people mentioned some of my favorites. Some ones I liked that I didn’t see mentioned are Barely Civil, Hey, ILY, Stay Inside, and Onsloow.
I saw a lot of you guys mention Pomfret as a favorite of this year. I saw their album release show last night and they rocked. They played the new album in full. The crowd was going nuts, too. The Springfield scene is a rowdy bunch.
The book NEGATIVES (a photographic archive of emo 1996-2006) by Amy Fleischer Madden is normally $45, but is on sale for $19.48 right now! Get on it!
Here’s 20 of my favorites. I’m sure a missed good ones, too. I’m not sure with how strict we’re being with “emo” either. awakebutstillinbed - far I’m Glad It’s You - Silent Ceremony I Love Your Lifestyle -Shilly Shally Southtowne Lanes - Witness Sinai Vessel - Guest in Your Life Caracara - Colorglut Seer Believer - Hard Stay Inside - Silt Foxing - Beacons Flight Mode - Hyperventilate Barely Civil - Coasting Mostly Macseal - Easily Undone Hey, ILY - Wind Up Toy Origami Angel - Feeling Not Found Anxious - Growing Up Song Pool Kids - Talk To Much Oso Oso - Computer Exploder Sweet Pill - High Hopes luminism - how do you sleep at night?

I was just talking about this book today! I need to check back with Polish amazon whenever they follow suit (it's there, but still the normal price). My partner just got me Where Are Your Boys for christmas though, so I'll catch up on that at least
tip of my tongue but for emo thread peeps there was this underground emo adjacent band that released an album a couple years ago that was like an unexpected opus / concept album with long songs that were part I and part II — what was this album? can’t remember for the life of me
