New Ben quad single

I like this one even more than the first single. So good

 

Also the Stay inside record is insane - so different to their previous stuff

 

New Scarlet Street on 10/24

FFO: Citizen Youth

 

This is crazy good. So many different styles going on here. But also very catchy.

ALSO IT'S BANDCAMP FRIDAY!

 

love Stay Inside

 

How are they not signed to Rise or whatever Swancore label thing is going now?

FFO: The Fall of Troy - A Lot Like Birds

 

Cause we got to em first!

 

who's we?

EDIT: Lonely Ghost Records... I was on there the other day to see if it was vinyl or not... no merch at all for them.

EDIT 2: Another good band who is terrible at links and actually selling themselves... bandcamp IG link doesn't work. FB is actually updated but the link tree it links to looks to be from 2021.

 

I’m not sure tbh if there’s gonna be enough demand to justify vinyl honestly. Let’s just say we’re all just happy the album is out there at all

 

what the? 2025 really is the year of the legacy act’s unexpected return

 

genuinely can’t decide if I love this or hate this haha

 

If anyone has seen Elliott on their tour that just started last week, how long after doors did they go on stage at your show?

 

This song rules

 

I'm seeing Marietta tomorrow.... wild

 

This album should be on more people's radar around here. Big Anxious/Hot Mulligan/Ben Quad vibes

 

bummed. sharing in case anyone was going to these in NYC or DC.

 

When I posted this before, I thought this was just an EP. But then they kept releasing songs lol. Not really clear on their social media if this is the full LP or if there’s more to come, but everything here is great

 

This band is good

pommer - ever after

 

Samuel pohgoh split

 

this year feels a bit stagnant- not much has stuck for me. I did enjoy Soft Surface, TAGABOW, Stay Inside, Blind Equation, and the Broken Record singles so far. still need to check Jejune, but v much open to recommendations. I tend to enjoy stuff that lingers on the fringes of the genre

 

Jejune technically isn’t new, haha. Reissues of stuff from the 90s. Of the rest of what you’ve said you enjoyed, most of it I wouldn’t really even call emo. Based on this, I’d recommend albums from

bleary eyed
Roseville
Cryogeyser
Pop free (ep)
Forty winks (ep)

 

Yeah its possible I’ve outgrown the “traditional” emo sound a bit, but every once in awhile I do enjoy the stuff posted here. Thanks for these recs- will check back in with my thoughts!

 

This band sounds just like 2005, I can’t stress enough how sick this band is.
