oh man .. going to dig out the d4 album now.
have missed that.
and yes, i mean the other d4 ..

Loving this artifex Perez record. Is like Thrice by way of Jellyfish.

Fuck. Artifex Pereo.

I mean, primarily in terms of the timbre of dude's voice.

What do people think of this Hotelier album?

http://thehotelyear.bandcamp.com/

it's incredible. i wish it were recorded better? but it's prob my second favorite emo record of the year so far, after tbs

jade tree catalog on bandcamp: http://jadetree.bandcamp.com/music

Good god, memory overload. Crazy thinking about all these bands that slipped through the tracks in the early 00s that probably would be welcomed with open arms and have an easier time finding an audience if they were around today

holy shit

yeah!

avail yesssss

i dont remember this album being on jade tree back in the day but whatev

wow i can't believe how great the hoteliers album is.

is this the thread where we talk about Tigers Jaw's "Charmer"? because I am liking Tigers Jaw's "Charmer" quite a bit.

http://runforcoverrecords.bandcamp.com/album/charmer

charmer is really nice!

also really enjoying the new record by wolves & machines which is on the alt rockier side of emo

aw man this record is great

yeah son yeah

and every girl i tried to kiss
gives that look you did so i choose to miss

"run brother run" on that fireworks record >>>>

here you can stream the new driver friendly record http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKAm0swRNckvuGdGkLQJDbyd2zjw-q2fg

every recommendation in this thread should come with a Singy/Shouty Gauge ... like:

"digging the new Burrowing Deep Into A Blanket Of Stars album ... 70/30 Singy/Shouty ... stream it here: LINK"

i like guitars and emo/pop-punk/bullshit, and i don't mind shouty but i prefer singy ... or at least some singy mixed in with the shouty. knowing right where a record falls on that spectrum would be sweet.

oh yeah that's probably a good idea

driver friendly is like 100/0 singy/shouty. it is definitely not as good as bury a dream though

Yeah it's not quite as striking as Bury a Dream, but their records always sound so good. Every tone on this album is so crisp and alert; I wish more albums were produced like this

i'm really coming around to the driver friendly now actually. way more upbeat than bury a dream but i think "undone" is one of their best songs. also yeah best guitar tones in the game

and now i can't stop listening to it. it's on spotify for, uh, easier listening than youtube http://open.spotify.com/album/40PYpebL41PqseFC7SgrgX

and so far the new dikembe is very good http://pitchfork.com/advance/496-mediumship/

100/0 singy/shouty although i don't think they can really sing

Do people on thread know Basement? Never heard of them but apparently an English band that went on hiatus in 2012 and just reunited. Not really a band name amenable to ILX search. Maybe 80/20 singy/shouty and this new song is really good:

http://noisey.vice.com/blog/basement-summers-colour-further-sky-premiere

Their previous album Colourmeinkindness is on spotify and is great, reminds me a bit of Balance and Composure with the chunky 90s alt-rock aspects.

into this

Milwaukee's Sugar Stems aren't really emo or pop-punk BUT they are very poppy and they're on Dirtnap (punky!) and there is no rolling power-pop or even indie thread (that I can find) so I have to post here that their new album has quickly become one of my favorites of 2014. the hooks on this thing are out of control:

http://www.avclub.com/article/hear-sugar-stems-starry-eyed-new-power-pop-album-o-206908

i think it sounds like The Muffs if Kim hadn't ever discovered punk rock.

if there is a better thread for this, lemme know, otherwise i figure you melody-friendly lot might like it.

i've heard the new dads record and it fucking rules

very very impressive lyrically which probably accounts for how much i've already listened to it

can't stop listening to the new braid

finally heard the first driver friendly album chase the white whale this morning and it's fucking AWESOME

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3cAifTNDi8

fuck it, making a driver friendly thread that no one replies to

dig that song!

going to Paramore/Fall Out Boy co-headliner tonight!

YEAH SPOTTIE HAVE AN AWESOME TIME

YES! v excited really, bday present from my wife, nice girl imo

yeah i went last month and paramore are unbelievable live these days

The show was so good. Paramore we're better I think.

Did a little video of light em up up (snuck in a shot of my wife grooving at the end)

aw

everyone's going nuts about that prawn record and i'm kinda... neutral about it still.

this one's pretty good though

what do we feel about Alex G - DSU?

^^ I liked it the couple times I listened. Sounds like he's got potential but isn't quite there yet.

have i mentioned how much i love this new braid album? addicting
